Seriously, fuck you Bartolo. Double play on a sac bunt attempt. Fucking worthless in every sense of the word.

Our SP had improved significantly since we placed him on the DL but yet we decide to bring him back. :L

We just gave away a game to give a 45 year old fat piece of shit a 2nd chance when he didnt earn it.

Have to think Bartolo is going to be gone pretty soon. It is just embarrassing at this point. 8.14 ERA.

Colon is DFA'd.

Now give him the Josh Collmenter treatment.

If you can eat 2 seasons of paying Dan Uggla I think 13 million per after you cut him, I think you can afford to pay Colon the rest of the 12 million you owe him to send his ass packing for good.

I don't want him in the AAA rotation taking starts away from a prospect that has actual potential.

Yeah, its time to take the "l" on the entire Colon experiment.

Win some, you lose some.

The Ben Sheets experiment a few years back worked out pretty well, and though RA Dickey hasn't been great, he's been about what I expected him to be, and has dominated a few games here along the way.

But if playing Freddie Freeman at third base turns out to be a successful experiment. it'll be a much bigger deal for us that the failed Colon experiment.

Agreed. Mistakes will always be made. Its how you respond to those mistakes that are important.

And if Freeman can hold down third base, given how Camargo has played, I'd be ok with trading Albies to get a young, quality MLB starting pitcher(Quintana, Archer, etc)
