Look man, I’m trying to grasp at straws here!    He had an .889 OPS in August!

Lead his team in HR’s and walks. 

Only player on team who’s last name started with Z.

Yefry too. I’m not against trading slot money If we’re not going to use it. This may have also been a favor to the Phils. Maybe a goodwill trade because of wasted time spent on a Jones trade. 

I doubt Dan has seen him. A coach or some scout likes him or perhaps they liked him in college.

He's just a few Brady Anderson sessions away from being a future all-star.  Am I right?

Again, I have to remind myself and everyone else. This is not money. It is the opportunity to spend some money if you have something you want to buy. It's like a license.

Or they read Frobby's post about the poor offense on the GCL.

Guy should be good for an 800 OPS in his third season.

If instead of VVM they end up with six Jack Zoellners I am going to be very upset.

Me too.

I think either Victor and the Orioles have agreed to a deal or he told them he is going to Miami. 

I pick the later.

So basically we trade Brach for this guy.  Lol the teams management is so bad.  Out only hope is the team being sold.

I have no issue with Beach being a salary dump.  His value was shot with how he had pitched.

Seems he has pitched like an all star since the trade. Anyway this is so bad you cant even get mad.  I doubt DD gets another job in baseball.  Hopefully he can get his job back in the Cape cod league.

Maybe ownership only Okayed 800k of total international spending.

After they traded for 2.5M from Atlanta?

That should’ve been cleared up well before any sort of mea culpa was necessary. They literally just had to ask Adam Jones if he was going to waive his 10/5. The very first thing that should’ve been done. That’s reckless levels of incompetence if they couldn’t get that right.
