Yeah if you give Broxton 550 at bats he would strike out 250 times.  47:strike outs in 111:plate appearances this year. He is awful.  

Let’s see....who costs more money?

Over 50% strikeout rate in June for Broxton.

What does that have to,do with anything? It actually makes it worse they are on the team as they could,be released without ownership approval.

I was willing to see him get a shot. The whole, “I’d be better if I was getting more playing time,” thing seemed plausible.

In reality, no.

He is probably around until Hays is ready, then it’s DFA time.

Davis is quite possibly the worst player in history based on what he’s paid. Yeah, Broxton isn’t much better and possibly on par, but he makes the minimum so it’s somehow less onerous.

I’m tired of watching him play again. 

The short lived rebirth was fun while it lasted. I felt good for Chris he had some success. Now he is right back to where he was. Wish they would just move on.

Broxton will be gone soon. Can’t see him lasting the season.

He has struck out in 42 percent of his career at bats.  He is 29.  It will only get worse.

I wish they wold get rid of all three of the same day.  That day being tomorrow.  I think that would show a good message to the team.

I think they just figured what the heck. Just buying some time for someone like Hays to get ready.

I think they will do it when they think the players they want to replace them are ready. They won’t make it be a show about sending a message.

I hope a year from now we’re not seeing anymore trades of international slot money for players like Broxton.

Yes, but it could be argued that is now. Mancini is clearly the choice at 1B and Nunez can DH. There’s really no reason to keep this up.

Mountcastle in theory could be called up too.
