Demote Goins

[AdamGreenwood]

I can't stand this little s***.

 

He's been in MLB for less than a season, contributes negatively with the bat, but this little turd still things he's a big deal, and struts around like he's got a 12 inch cock. He's much too important to run out ground balls, like every other s***** hitting middle infielder has done since the beginning of time, and can't be bothered learning how to bunt cuz he's too much of a stud.

 

Send him back to the minors where he can whine about his daily per diem for a couple of years, while staying in cum-soaked hotels, until he learns some humility.

Maybe he does?

 

Hurl would probably (indirectly) know.

[Stangstag]

I don't know man, gruber92 says Goins will provide at least 2 WAR if he plays every day. I'm good with that.

[Jonn]

Goins will be demoted once Travis is back.

[THANOS]

Goins will be demoted once Travis is back.

 

Would be excellent but instead it will be Travis who's demoted to AAA until he "earns" his way back. It's completely moronic but I expect Gibbons to fight for Goins and do just that.

 

If Travis does come right to the Majors after his extended spring stint, then Barney will be sent down, for the same reasons as above. Gibby has a love affair with Goins.

[Krylian]

Goins is not good...but he's not the reason the team is losing.

Travis will play a rehab stint and be back up. No doubt in my mind.

He's one of the major reasons.

I really hope you're right man.

[Harvey_Specter]

I bet they rid of Barney instead of Goins down

[Jonn]

Nah Barney has a major league contract and would have to be exposed to waivers. Goins has a minor league option. It's logical.

[Stangstag]

I really hope you're right man.

 

I don't see any situation in which Travis is not added to the 25-man roster upon completion of his rehab stint.

The fact that I'm even uncertain about this speaks volumes about Gibbons.

You're right, that is logical. Doesn't change my bet though.

There's just no f***ing way. In that situation, Atkins would have to override Gibbons

lol... who the f*** are you?

Good thread AG, 10/10.

More important than you

[Zaun of the Dead]

I think the kid CAN hit but he refuses to do the little things at the plate and has super selfish ABs. He'll never learn to hit as long as he keeps swinging away like he's roger maris.

[Angrioter]

Goins is just awful as a ballplayer

[RealAccountant]

-0.6 war

[RealAccountant]

We can't wait for Travis. Barney should be starting in the interim

[Nabru]

Why do some people keep referring to Goins as a kid? At 28, he's nearly past his prime (if he had one) in MLB years.

[JosJos]

Gibbons love affair with Goins meaning he won't be bench at all except day off even when Barney play better.

[Statman]

The last two months of the 2015 season and the praise he was hearing from Gibbons, Wilner and all the casual fans has really gone to his head.

 

Travis can't get back soon enough.

Wait wat?

[BlueJayWay]

Travis is at extended ST now, and then after some time I assume goes to Buffalo for a bit. How long till he's with the Jays?

[CHRIS]

It will be interesting to see how they handle things when Travis is ready to go. They seem to make a lot of moves based on guys having options (e.g., Zeke); I'm wondering if this will apply to Goins or not.

[BigCecil]

Goins is not good...but he's not the reason the team is losing.

 

A 13 wRC+ is part of the reason. His D hasn't been that good either. Cant bunt; put a ball in play or take a BB consistently. Its 2014 all over again.

Optimistically, June.
