  1. We all wanted the twins to do this with Simmons.... Frankly, I don't know why more teams don't do this. Especially the cheap ones. Especially with the limits on roster expansion.
  2. If only they trusted Martin. But then, they didn't really want Julien or Wallner up this year. Both came up and were sent down again. They're only up due to injury. I don't get not trusting your own organization..... Julien is surely legit as is Lewis. It's all about health for the latter. I think Wallner is also. I'd have Varland in the pen right now, to see if he's ready for the playoffs, but nope.
  3. Turns out he got the massive deal!
  4. The Hockensin trade and deal shows, imo, good teams should trade draft picks for very good to great players more often. Proven players are way more valuable than picks past round one.
  5. Moving your family over and over. Having to find places to live. Leaving guys you know, for those there more than a few weeks. It isn't all rainbows and sunshine.... These are people.
  6. and 40 man roster spots....
  7. He literally did that today, and they blew it.
  8. If it isn't Kody's job to get out lefties in crucial situations, he shouldn't be on the roster.
  9. Yikes. Sigh. This is on Duran and the offense (and MAT not throwing it in, he's been not as good lately).....Duran and the offense need to be better than this. oh well.
  10. Agreed, It is his role, come in against lefties late in a game.
  11. Hard to believe it is that bad, given how great he's been all year. Yikes!
  12. It is literally the only sample possible.....
  13. Me! Why give up a 40 man spot to spite another team? That's just childish.
  14. Because it is a waste of money and I run a business? It would be stupid.
  15. No, he's pointing out an example of how just because something works doesn't make it the right decision. That's a logical fallacy, and he's giving an example of how/why ....
  16. I'm ole enough to remember when Duran was great, let alone good, at his job.
  17. Why would the Yankees waste money and lose a 40 man spot just to spite someone? That's silly.
  18. It's the rules. I don't get how playing by the rules is wrong/bad/evil somehow. Why should LAA keep those guys? It is the 100% right move by them.
  19. He hit the same in the leadoff spot (after a hot start) as he did before they put him there. The foot is clearly an issue batting.....I'd like to see them rest him and put Lewis at SS and ? at third. But I get why they aren't resting him. I don't get not moving him down in the order, though.
  20. Let's hope they put in claims on the RPs....and they get at least one.
  21. Yup, right move for sure.....sometimes they don't work out.
  22. In the meantime, he's an auto out. Just wasting at bats. Also, they better not make a claim. As you point out, they have Buxton, AK and Castro coming back (and Martin and Stevenson in AAA).
