[Campmoon]

This better not be one of those score a couple of runs and scatter 11 hits nights. Ugh.

That sounds like a great band name

Was any other team making a bid for Rogers at the break?

If another team was bidding do you think Elias could have convinced them to take Stowers AND Norby?

Pretty Mid TBH.

 

Now that is a good band name.

Rogers is the kind of pitcher you pick up in the offseason for a low level, like 25th best prospect.  Not at the deadline for our 5th best prospect and a ML ready OF.

Imagine Rogers against a premium offense. Good lord

Povich may not have good command, but he didn't get hit hard.

If I was scouting Rogers in the minors I would be a NP on him. 

No velocity or out pitch.

Pretty sure Rogers has options, and its just about time. This guy sees a fire he goes looking for gas. I would probally try Irvin First

Yup. Gross overpay for a DFA caliber pitcher for the Marlins.

[Jagwar]

Kicking it up to 90 mph!

This is another case of Elias thinking he's smarter than everyone else.

I'm think Elias is fantastic at organizational stuff but is lacking when it come to judging pitching talent.

[Jagwar]

I think I would rather have given Jack Flaherty another chance

Adley finally makes a good throw and Holliday drops it
