Frenchy? No doubt in my mind it's time to cut him. Guy is finished unless his buddy Melky sends him another shipment.
I won't complain too much about the way he was handled. Leash was MAYBE a week longer than I would have liked to see.
Moose? I was ready to send him down last month IF he didn't show positive signs in that Cleveland series. He did. A lot of them. He just wasn't able to sustain them for more than a few weeks.
I don't think Omaha is a magic bullet, but he does look frustrated and like he has lost his confidence. Restoring his swing and that confidence against a lower level of pitching might be his best shot at this point.
I still will maintain that many of the baseball fans on this forum are TOO reactive to small sample sizes, and that sending Moustakas down after the first two weeks was too soon, though.
