  1. That seems way low given what I've seen.
  2. I can't help but wonder whether Kjerstadt or Stowers might not be a better option over Hays at this point.
  3. Great. A 32yo middle infielder who can't hit. Meanwhile, Norby returns to Norfolk. Oh yeah, and that Holliday kid.
  4. My concern w/O'Hearn is that he's had two good years w/four bad years separating those good years.
  5. So I just read that Flaherty is "betting on himself" with his new Tiger's contract which begs the question - what the hell was he doing during his stint w/the Os.
  6. I coached high school fast pitch for a long time, and between innings of a close game, the umpire pulled my catcher aside to talk. He told her to stop insulting his intelligence with exaggerated pitch framing, that he's familiar with the strike zone. I had to smile. I don't understand why umps don't call out the catchers in MLB.
  7. I'm more inclined to retire Dave McNally's number than Mussina's.
  8. Is that what I said? Man, your critical reading skills need work.
  9. I do it all the time, purely for amusement. My favorite, however, is going on Cleveland Browns boards after they meltdown yet again.
  10. After only four pitches, why would you not let Baker start the 9th?
  11. Does Mateo have options? He's still relatively young, and perhaps a decent offensive stretch at Norfolk could bring a useful middle reliever.
  12. Two things keep coming back to me. 1. We have a lot of infielders who have hit well in the minor leagues. None, other than Gunnar, have shown they can hit in the majors. Time will tell, but it's not a given. 2. Didn't Mateo win a Gold Glove last season, or the equivalent?
  13. Mateo at least brings solid defense to the table which justifies occasional playing time. I'm done w/the Frazier experiment.
  14. There's little chance Mountcastle's left off the roster once he's healthy.
  15. Still, in this day and age, that's not terrible for a power hitter.
