You’re the one who wants to make the bet, go ahead sir 

I'll give you the advantage and pick fWAR because it loves K's.

Time to go watch young JH

No. Bradish is a big time pitcher. No need to fear any opponent including the Yankees.

That’s not the point. It’s best to ease him back slowly. 
let him start against the Reds or better yet against the nationals, all our starters are doing fine. There’s no need to bump any anybody for his first start

You better hope not. If Kremer wins that means G-Rod probably didn’t have a great season and we need him to.

Reverse Jinx. I'd gladly buy your Nord for a great Rodriguez season.

The Reds have a pretty good lineup. 

If you feel that he is one of your best 5, you let him go out there and compete.

As good as some of our guys have been, after  Burnes, there’s nobody on this team that I would want on the bump more than Bradish.

I appreciate that, but my point remains valid, but it’s arguable, and if you think it’s OK, that’s fine, I hope it is OK.
I don’t remember whose spot Bradish would take, but except for Irvin, I wouldn’t want to bump anybody

They do. The people who were saying Sears isn't good are about find out the hard way. He shuts down LHB and his off-speed pitches are really good.

We sure found out.

Glad your back and were able to recover from the loss the other day, little buddy. Even though I don't really think Sears is that good. That pitch he struck out Gunnar on was filthy.

How many closer will Hyde destroy in his managerial career? 

Part Elias for not doing enough for his bullpen and part Hyde running his closers into the ground before May.

We all said the bullpen was the weakness coming into this season and he we are.

Blowing saves to the freaking A's. 

[Tony-OH]

Maybe Suarez will end up closing?
