Why didn't he get a September callup?

They did pay to get him. Other avenues existed if the O's were that interested in Santander. Do you think he was untouchable in trade talks?

What is the sense of him getting any time at third?

Smart, keeps him from getting enough reps in one position to show he's comfortable with the position change.

What was it you said about the Giants a couple of hours ago?

Chris Correa is out of prison.

But it goes to 11.

Draft status. He also has a pair of immaculate innings.

And if they don't sign him who is plan B?

And here I heard that they were willing to spend whatever it took this offseason.

Had not realized that Cueto has pitched that well.

I've got short ribs in the immersion circulator 24 hours at 158. Did a pre-sear with ghee.

Wouldn't you like to know? Why was Boras talking to you about mystery teams?

Cole seems interested in SF.

I wonder if they got room for a couch in the dugout?

He needs the calories.

Just to watch...

And he's set up an intensive training program with swing expert X.

Sure.

Raises hand. He might very well do a good job. He certainly looked very good when he was called up. However his history before his promotion last year leads to me have doubts on how sustainable his success was. He put up a 726 OPS in Norfolk last year with the juiced ball (Sico-918, Stewart-944). He put up a 703 OPS at three levels in 2018. These things happened.

How was I that down on Santander? I was asked about him and expressed doubts that he's an exceptional player going forward and said he didn't look good in the second half. You are acting like I called him a piece of garbage and advocated for his release. I have no issues at all with him getting a good long look next year, he earned it. But I can still think he's not a long term piece.

I don't see how saving money changes anything with Davis.

I'm not giving Stewart a pass. I'm also not "killing" Santander. I said he didn't look good, in what world is that "killing" him? Stewart look pretty bad last year. My argument with Stewart was that more time at AAA wasn't going to help him develop.
