De Aza DFA

[Crazysilver03]

Gibbons wasn't just traded, just flat released.

He still works as the example, though.

I remember how excited many people were when Gibbons was released and #FreeScottMoore was a hash tag before Twitter was big. It is amazing how far this team has come.

So DD took a shot on De Aza and lost. Whatever. All that matters now is he got it right eventually and the roster balance is SO MUCH BETTER.

RF - Young

CF - Jones

LF - Snider

OF BENCH - Lough

1B - Davis

2B - Flaherty

SS - Hardy

3B - Machado

IF BENCH - Cabrera

DH/IF-OF - Pearce

Ahhhh now doesn't that just feel right?! Now that's some good rosterbation right there!

I see a mistake. Flaherty. I can't stand the guy.

I do see the need to keep the infielders as backup but Pearce is much better than him - hell even at 2b. There's something about Pearce. He can his .190 and strike out once every 4 ABs and it doesn't bother me. But when Flaherty does it, I just about lose it.

It's something about his facial expressions. Flaherty just doesn't look like he thinks he belongs. He tries to blow bubbles and act confident. Stevie seems truly confident.

Pearce will not be used at SS, so there goes your plan.

Flaherty is the backup SS for this team.

For some reason, I like Flaherty. No, he's not a good hitter, but he can play just about anywhere on the field (I believe he could catch and pitch in a pinch), he plays good defense at all of them (Where would we be without his defense in the playoffs against the Tigers?) and has good at bats alot of the time.
