You think the shirt thing was already in the works before the sale was concluded? I think it was planned to get a huge gate on an otherwise sleepy day in April. And i don't think it was wise at least in hindsight. The kid didnt need the added pressure but its hard to imagine he would suck this spectacularly.
But on the bright side we dont have to listen to Matt Holliday go around talking smack about not bringing up his amazing son who is totally ready to play right now. Now we can keep him down for as long as we want and Matt and Boras and the Players Union can go pound sand. We brought him up and he could not hit a ball to save his life. Honestly he isnt ready hitting or defensively.
Norby must really not be able to play second because otherwise he would have his golden chance.
I think they are having a suck-in. In protest of all the heat Angel Hernandez is getting for his own suck. They are going to suck until the Fans and MLB stop proving they suck.
They are scared to go with totally robot umps because it would lead to dramatic statistical differences between robots and human umps. They are scared to show us how horrible the humans always were.
