    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    ATM there's nearly no choice IF Devers is out of the lineup. And if Devers is in the lineup you then have to weigh the better defender at 1B vs the better bat. Hopefully Breslow finds another option, but at least for the short term this is what we're faced with.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Yep, I'm hoping Breslow and his former employer can find a common ground here.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Add to this, one would hope that Breslow might be able to come to terms with the Cubs.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    So why not wait more than 8 hours after the team gets the official diagnosis on Casas before going getting all worked up. The overwhelming majority of us want better than Dalbec on the 26 man.

    Don't confuse the explanations of some for the situation at hand with love for Dalbec. They can be and are two very different things.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Is this a number that has been discussed anywhere?

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    Shitty weather expected. Probably doesn't want to put Devers and O'neill in the field.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Or maybe perhaps don't come out and say that they are actively looking for Dabec's replacement. Dude's a fucking mess at the plate and they are looking to get what they can from him in the interim. But I guess it's just easier to shit on the team hours after getting a definitive diagnosis on Casas.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Of course, but that's not yet happened and some people are posting as if it is it's currently an option.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    He's on the squad, right? He's been discussed as an option.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    At this exact moment, yes. Do you have an alternate plan that fits the moment?

    They would need to clear a spot on the 40 man for Kavadas.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    ATM there are no 40 man roster moves to make. I do think at some point the 40 man needs to be addressed, but unless we see a greater urgency to address the Casas injury I don't see too much happening there as we may see the likes of Mayer, Anthony and/or Teel moved there later in the season...

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    ATM it seems that Dalbec and Reyes will get reps at first. Cora sees Dalbec as the better defender at 3rd which is why Reyes started at 1B on Sunday. I think what we've seen thus far has been due to a very short reactive time and an equally short bench. I think Cora will need a bit of time to...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    "Regular" is TBD. As you alluded to, we'll need to see how ready Raffy and O'Neill are to go full bore. I would imagine one the other or both might get an extra day or two off in the early going just as a precaution and that's manageable without the need for Bobby to become a regular, but if...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    Yep, Heineman was never anything more than a body and only there because he was the last remaining player on the 40 man. The next guy with what seems to be the least amount of value to the team is Hamilton who likely gets sent down in a week or so when Grissom is ready to return. At some point...

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    Just for the sake of clarity, is this the diagnosis? I've not been able to find anything more that it being deemed a "significant injury" and that it looks like he will "blow past" the 10 days...
