It really is not.

Such is life.

You've got time.

Cheerio had no chance of ever catching up to that heat.

Perhaps I don't see a need to change.

Nefty decided to lay the curse down on Tolleson upon leaving. Dirty deals made and gets his velo back

Leonys needs to go to the minors.

 

[romeo212000]

Oh look. Martin at 0-2.

The sad thing is, I've been picturing someone who had 2 or 3 decades on me. Now I can't take any of it seriously.

I'm about ready to see Choo handed his outright release.

Don't know what to tell you, Bucky.

Bad loss. Especially with the Astros losing and the Angels behind. That's what average teams do, I guess.

It's all been scrolled back, that's for sure.

Below average do

I like Tolleson and some of the hits were flaky but I like my closer to miss bats. Kimbrel did just that

Detwiler ... the only guy who made Feliz look confident and in command.

When you are DFAing an SP from your Opening Day roster before the ASB ... you are moving him back to the rotation after he has been strictly an RP ... and paying him in excess of $3mil ... you wonder about the ML scouting.

They do seem to miss on NL pitchers often.

Truthfully, unless you're talking guys like Greinke or Hamels, it's not hard to do. It really is annoying how nobody acknowledges the fact that NL pitchers benefit from a half run lower ERA at least.

This was a minor move worthy of very little criticism. Wandy was picked up for nothing. Renauldo is ok but Ross was not getting it done. And we are really trying to develop our own pitching anyways.

Ranaudo is worthwhile pitching depth IMO.

Not much criticism for this one move for sure. It is the cumulative effect of them missing on several NL pitchers that is a bit more concerning.

No beef on my end re him. We may get a couple starts out of him or even more due to injury or trades
