And never be brought back up or start another game at shortstop again. That is the worst Major League player I think I have ever seen. He's about as built as my 10 year old brother and can't hit the ball out of the infield. Bynum's back up, and Bynum can't hit the ball much better but at least he brings a little bit more then Fahey who is just absolutely pathetic.

I agree he's not the best player and is even a below average player, but don't call him pathetic. What has he ever done wrong? He's worked his butt off and is among the best baseball players in the world for even reaching the majors, which is something most of us here could only have dreamed of. I'd rather see a better shortstop than him too, but Fahey is far from "absolutely pathetic."

Dude, you are just noticing how skinny Fahey is? Why are you saying this now? Give the guy a break, like everyone else said he is doing his best. He is actually easy to watch defensively compared to everyone else we've had this season.

:agree:

I hope I was 1/4th this on target at post 200 as CharileC107 is...hell, I hope I'm 1/4th that on target today! Great post.

Give the guy a break. He hits like he is swinging a rolled up newspaper but he is better than average defensively. Watch him turn the DP. Our SS situation is bad so if he makes the plays I can live with that. Your post on Fahey make him sound like he is a serial killer. Give the guy a break, the anger is overboard.

These over reactionary SS threds need to stop..NOW!!

I feel bad for Fahey. I bet he wouldn't get nearly the amount of flack he does on here if he wasn't built the way he is.

Agreed. He can play SS. These guys would have run the Blade (Belanger) out of town before he became the best defensive SS I have ever seen. The man plays hard. He is thin with a baby face but if he makes the plays and turns the DP anything he hits will be a bonus.

      Not Tony, but he’s going to start out on one of the DSL teams again.  Was hoping maybe he’d start at FCL. Maybe he lights up DSL and only has a short stay in the Dominican?

      He's accepted an option before when he was struggling iirc, but they can't just option him, he has to agree and he probably would, he's always been a team guy. Nothing changes with his pay.

      I don’t disagree. You could make a lot of cases for or against acceptable production (or lack thereof) based of player level and respective age. I simply don’t think this player is a must keep as many are insinuating. Luckily we’re all just armchair GMs and can hazard guesses and opinions all day long without real repercussion.

      Well, That Sucked

      In September, we'll look back at this as the low point of the season. I'm watching the A's and Rockies in the 12th inning right now and these are some bad offenses.   Although - there are several Oakland pitchers I would love to have in the Baltimore bull pen.

      Well I didn’t realize that.  I just read he had options.  I would at least say look if he agrees to go down he will at least play.  I don’t know what his pay structure is if he chooses to be optioned.  If it results in a pay cut then I wouldn’t do it in that case.

      @Tony-OH do we know anything about why Liranzo hasn’t played in a game at an affiliate this season? I haven’t seen anything indicating that he is injured. If Liranzo is not injured, it seems odd that he wouldn’t be playing given the positive press he has received here and elsewhere.

      Baumann traded for Blake Hunt

      Big kid for a catcher. Has pop, stance reminds me a little of O’Hearn. No idea how he is defensively but this guy looks to be every part of a backup catcher someday until Basallo makes his way through the minors. Excellent trade for both teams.
