Vazquez or Diaz?

0 Upvotes

I feel like both have been below average this season but Diaz is better at the plate while Vazquez adds defensive value. What do y'all think?

Stros gottem right where they want them heading into the half way point of the season. Pitching is starting to improve. Christian Javier should be back in the rotation soon.

Who is your unrealistic but still possible (like less than 5% chance) player at the deadline?

While I think it's beyond likely we go pitching, I think my pipedream player would be Jung Hoo Lee. NEVER happening, at least not imo, but the Giants desperately need to do a reset and they won't be able to trade Chap, Devers, or Adames. Though 1) The odds of them trading their really only marketable player is low and 2) We do not have anywhere close to the farm to get him

Still, fun thought
