[Frobby]

You knew we had to have this thread!

Zoellner debuted yesterday and went 0 for 4 with a walk.    .200 OPS.

Finally the thread we’ve all been waiting for!

This poor guy. Didn’t ask to be a punch line. 

[AceKing]

I’m pulling for him.  Can he at least hit better than Davis?

Yes!  35 miles from Baltimore!  He has advanced from the GCL at 25!

I know that is not true as he isn’t eligible.

They must have changed the rules for Zoellner.  Last year if you joined the league after age 19 you could only be in league for 2 years.  This year you can only have 2 years of prior pro experience. Zoellner is probably oldest guy to ever play in the league,

We now know that the whole Zoellner move was just a sly way of transferring Philly some slots we had promised them the year before when they sent us Alec Asher.    Ergo, I really don’t care whether Zoellner makes it out of the GCL or not.   It was a bigger deal back when we thought that the slots were traded because someone in the front office actually thought Zoellner was an intriguing prospect.    None of us understood that logic.  

[Ruzious]

Soooo, we shouldn't bring him up because that'll start running the clock?  And we don't want to rush the clock, AAA stinks, and Davis is on first?

Once we found the truth of the deal I was only worried about it he would make a team or get released.

Jack Zoellner was cut today.

What a ride
