@shoewizard59 In Cincy with the family. Already finding room under the concourse to wait out the pending rain delay with some @graeters ice cream.

@shoewizard59 I was halfway expecting Lawlar to be alternated for the Miami series. Any idea when that activation may come?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 What has caused such bad metrics for Fairbanks? Homers? K’s are similar to Sewald and BB’s aren’t so bad given small sample sizes.

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 Is that a lineup we want to see?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@DbacksOnSI @shoewizard59 Is a 40 man roster move needed?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@PHNX_Dbacks What about the 40 man move?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 @AlexDagAZ True. Ran out of room in my reply. But like you’d aid on the podcast, these two months can serve an opportunity to get to know him and set up for a run when he is a free agency. A trade at the deadline should likely only be considered if a run on free agency is contemplated.

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 any updates on lawlar? Is he trending to being activated when first possible or will he need more time?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@DbacksStatsInfo With a guy like Groover on the system it’s more likely Fernandez is 3B of the future. Just playing first until Arenado is traded or his free agency

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@hallofgoodpod Yes, but Jake Lamb has retired and is thus HOPG eligible. No hate for Jake

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@hallofgoodpod I think a requirement for hall of pretty good eligibility should be was an all-star (or something similar gold glove/silver slugger) at least once but no more than X. Not all all star nods are indicative of greatness. See Jake Lamb

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@nickpiecoro What is the strategic reason for doing this? Unless there is a hope an IL stint can be avoided

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@SteveGilbertMLB @Dbacks @JakeDRill Is there a chance Moreno ends up avoiding an IL stint?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@dbacksprospectz @MrAzSports I think a better answer is the ranking systems got it wrong. There was surprise when the team added him to the 40 man roster to protect him from the rule 5 draft. They knew what they had even if the third party ranking systems did not.

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@SteveGilbertMLB Any updates on when Gurriel might begin a rehab stint?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 how did alek Thomas’s leg kick look last night?

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

To fans…yes. But don’t forget he was added to the 40-man to protect him from being taken in the Rule 5. Dbacks FO knew. Other FO’s probably knew. Chalk this up to why they had those jobs and we don’t.

@nakataniakatani This came out of almost nowhere. He was a below-average hitter before reaching Amarillo, where he looked quite good. This offseason, though, he's reached a new level!

[Ryan Wautlet @rwautlet]

@shoewizard59 heard your take on waldschmidt and keeping him down for an extra year of control. Is the extra year of control more valuable than the potential bonus dress pick if he starts on OD roster? Especially considering the teams recent pre-arb extensions?

@ChrisKarpman Has ASU gotten to 20 yet?
