  1. why? Explain why it is a good idea to keep a bad player on the roster. You are paying the same money, is it better to keep running out a below replacement level player, and pay him, or cut him, and pay him, and put out a good player?
  2. What evidence is there that he's a good coach? They need to clean house.
  3. I fail to see how just cutting Hunter and Mauer is a bad idea at this point. I fail to see how going with young guys with upside is waving a white flag. Running out terrible veterans "because" is waving the flag. This is what happens when you straddle the fence, and refuse to either go for winning or trading off the present FULLY for the future. The rotation is 80% (plus Nolasco and May, not in the rotation, but also) traded for or FA......why does anyone trust this FO at this point?
  4. Duffey is better than Berrios right now, that's what we were told by the FO..........
  5. So, May can literally only come in the eighth?
  6. Ya, according to most here, that is somehow not any fault of the coaches or scouts. All the players fault.
  7. The MN press corps is pathetically weak. When have they ever pressed Ryan?
  8. Trevor May? How doe he not come in there? Fire Molitor and Ryan now.
  9. Pelfrey, pitching to the score.........
  10. Beer tasting, followed by wine tasting, followed by strong beer with light dinner......
  11. There will be some excuse for why this was a good decision by Ryan........just like all the other awful ones. Btw, I am a bit drunk......
  12. Pelfrey is terrible. Why is he in the rotation?
  13. He is an elite prospect, not a normal one. Seriously, if he is elite, this should not be an issue.
  14. This is a great post. We don't always agree, but you are an intelligent poster.
  15. Not sure that is the key point here.............
  16. I also found that part odd...... Was mostly pointing out what was said today, made all the more depressing by his opinion of Jepsen, frankly.
  17. This from today's BA chat: Jaypers413 (IL): Thanks for the chat, Matt. Do you think what the Rays got back in return for Jepsen qualifies as a steal? (i.e. Tapia & Hu) Matt Eddy: IMO just freeing up payroll and a 25-man roster spot would have been a winning return for a mediocre, 30-year-old reliever. Instead, the Rays got a command-oriented starter prospect (Chih-Wei Hu) and a raw-armed wild card (Aleix Tapia) whose floor appears to be Kevin Jepsen.
  18. I guess it clears up 3B for their new 30 year old rookie 3B also....... I still like this for CLE. Cut costs in the future (by taking on extra money this year), so you can sign players if you want. And, a 2 for 1 on bad deals......
  19. CLE sheds two bad contracts for 1 bad contract. I like that math for them for next year.
  20. that was funny, I had some lines too, but was trying not to be too political. Nicely done.
  21. You choose to make those actions "jerky". There is literally nothing inherently, in their very existence, that makes them "jerky". It is all on you deciding they are jerky. 100%, your decision inside your head. I have no problem throwing inside, I have tons of problems intentionally hitting someone.
