Rowdy Tellez to MIL for Trevor Richards and Bowden Francis

[EastCoaster]

I simply don't get the Hard on love for this guy by some you'd think they lost their BJ buddy the hatred showed by some toward Grichuk and even Guerrero Jr at the first was appalling. Let there be no mistake this is the Milwaukee Brewers they're known for taking flyers on questionable players after the Brewers it's usually the Japanese league or the independent leagues. This is the last stop station everybody off.

You're right. Grichuk and Tellez have been VERY polarizing on this board.

You think Cito knows how to use a computer?

Me too. I hope this trades works out really well for everyone. I wish Rowdy nothing but the best.

This is a non issue both teams got what they needed most we got a solid reliever in Richards for the bullpen who has an 1.59 ERA since coming to the Blue Jays. The Brewers got a first baseman type players which they needed. Rowdy wasn't going to stick with the Blue Jays anyways not with Vladdy at first everyone knows that they weren't going to sit Guerrero for Tellez. Time will tell who got the best deal but anytime you a 2 for 1 deal you've came out ahead in the game right now Richards is a solid arm in our bullpen. Francis seem to be a very good prospect so far in Buffalo he has an 2-0 record with a 1.50 ERA if he keeps it up he could possiblily be up.

Who said it was an issue?

[G-Snarls]

How do we grade Richards so far?

[Sorrow]

Very small sample size but 17k/9 with no walks is always good.

I want to see EastCoaster's reaction as he reads this. He may implode.

[RustyTrombone]

Bowden Francis is gonna be the key for the Jays in this one cause Rowdy is gonna mash with this change of scenery.

FYI The tenure of Rowdy Tellez as a Blue Jays were numbered the day they announced that Vladdy Guerrero Jr was switching to first base. Anybody who though they would choose Tellez over Vladdy please identify yourself because you should seriously think about having yourself checked out. Secondly Tellez is a one dimensional player cannot play multiple positions plus no speed with the Blue Jays liking to rotate the DH spot left him with limited at bats. Some player can excel in that position coming off the bench they gave it a try which wasn't successful for him. So big deal he hit 3 HR's since being traded some players hit that in one game wait till he win NL player of the week or month then come back and boast about him then. Rowdy Tellez was redundant in the Toronto Blue Jays organization he was expendable and Atkins did the best thing for him traded him to another organization for some much needed arms. Now he has a new opportunity with a new team it's entirely up to him to make the best of it players come and go as a Blue Jays he couldn't make it here.

Today the Blue Jays are in better position to compete for a playoff spot than previously so trading players is a big part of the game other players have been traded some with bigger name and more accolade than Rowdy Tellez so get over it and quit whining it's water under the bridge now.

[Spanky99]

The self awareness is uncanny.

To be fair, every one of their posts qualifies for that.
