With all the merriment of our Christmas festivities nobody noticed the seismic shockwave of Jovani Moran (AAAA LHP) for Mickey Gasper(AAAA UI) from the Red Sox.


Oh, I noticed.

and it was so seismic, I didn't even feel the tremor.

Gasper has even done a fair amount of time at Catcher in his career. He could be a nice secret weapon.

He'll probably make Willians Austidillo look competant.
He'll probably improve the memories of LNP.

Question is can he hit like Lew did in his one great year? (He is basically a left handed hitting CJ Cron). So expect Crash Davis and Ford probably playing first base.

You aren't visioning Rocco and Falvey drooling over the OPS+ against RHP on the PC?

Unfortunately, Falvey doesn't have any qualms about settling for the least objectionable option after a half-assed search for a good option.

Great. A 32 year old career minor leaguer. That should move the needle.
