Do you still want it coming into tonight? And by the way don’t we have any non-prospects Who deserve a call up in a wasted season? Bring up The #24-28 Guys on our prospect list. They will be terrible and then they will go away, but all their lives they’ll be able to say that they had those two or three days on the big team.

I don't consider the guys from 24-28 much in the way of an actual prospects.

You should back off. We need arms to cover innings. We're gonna lose, get BEAT DOWN some nights. It is what it is.

You can't just drop every pitcher that struggles. We'd have 19 year olds pitching even WORSE.

On the contrary, we certainly can. We’ve got lots of other guys who we can give tryouts to, maybe they won’t be any better, and it’s possible they might even be worse. But Mr. Taylor needs to go away. He’s not struggling. To say he is struggling implies that he’s having a bad day or something like that. No he’s just a bad pitcher. 

I said at the beginning of the game thread that I had stopped caring, so if they want to keep them, that’s fine no harm no foul, but I would certainly bring in someone else.

Exactly, so you’re not ruining the development of a “real prospect” by bringing them up, they can have a little time in the sun, and we can have a different kind of terrible on the mound, and everybody’s happy.

STEVIE!

Haha, Eshelman.  We're really going for 30.

Get the home runs given up record locked up before the next road trip. Give the fans a reason to come to the yard.

This is way better than having one of our "pitchers" pitch.

The 24-28 have already been up! I don't know what Philip expects of our farm system. Compared to guys who have actually pitched a couple innings in the bigs...

What are the odds I'll actually be happy?
