I would have preferred Sitton. But I think Morris was signed with an expectation of him getting a bully spot out of ST, so in essence, he had squatters rights.
I understand the Neil Ramirez move. Hey, in my frustration on last night's game, I called for it. However, Bryan Morris is a bit puzzling. He made one appearance in spring training before being injured and just recently got activated at Sacramento. He has thrown three run-less outings but I would have preferred another lefty or Tyler Rogers over Morris.
@calsnowskier , you may not have seen my edit.
Thanks cal. I guess I didn't need to respond since you already had gotten a response anyway.
If you don't pat yourself on the back, no one else is going to do it for you...
I dont know what happened to Osich. He was so awesome when he first came up. Then he just fell off a cliff
Unfortunately, its not the first time a reliever came up looking good and the shine quickly faded. I wish it would happen less often. Hopefully, Osich does better up here this year.
Runzler, Hembre...
Around the time Wilson and Romo came up, there was a flood of relief pitching the Giants were looking at and I feel like a few of them fit into this category. However, names escape me right now and I don't feel like fishing through Baseball Reference to have my memory jogged.
Otero (he actually had a lot of success elsewhere), Threat, Walker...
I wouldn't count Walker. He was a minor league free agent we picked up. I'm thinking of guys like Jeremy Accardo (who had a tiny bit of success elsewhere), Jack Taschner, Scott Munter, Billy Sadler, Pat Misch, Alex Hinshaw, Osiris Matos, Merkin Valdez, etc. Although looking at their numbers, some weren't as successful in their debuts as I thought.
And I am not sure how much expectation a lot of these guys had. Outside of Valdez, who we acquired via trade, I think most of these guys were basically just turnstile arms.
