A’s just sent Estuery Ruiz down to make room for Phil Nevins’ son Tyler.
My sons name is Tyler Nevin.
If the A’s don’t want Ruiz I’d love to have him back.

Not sure what the A’s are doing.
Ruiz is 3/7 with an RBI and a SB in the two games he played.
Obviously is a game changer on the bases….

Agreed!
Happily add his speed and D to the OF group
Don’t get blinded by the speed. Last year for the 14 qualified CF Ruiz was:
#13 in WAR
#12 wRC+ at a poor 79 … 21% below average
#14 in dWAR at -4.2
Basically can’t hit or field, with no power … but he sure can run.

R.I.P. Larry Lucchino. His time was short here in Padreville; however, he had a big impact on this team being he was a big part of getting the plans in motion for Petco park.
Condolences to his family in this time of his passing.

Oh I get it....but he got on base enough to lead the AL in SB's and have you seen the guys in the OF they "didn't" send down?
These are middle of the order bats that barely have an OPS higher than Ruiz.
That Org is a mess....where are all the great players they got for Olson,Murphy,Manaea,Semein,Montas,Donaldson,
and Tyler Nevin is not better than Ruiz even if I wish he was.

All that makes me wonder what else was at issue with Ruiz in OAK ... agree not much else in OAK yet they option Ruiz ...OAK may be a hot mess but still they must have had a reason he was the one optioned.
