Paredes over Smoak makes no sense at all. I can tell already that Gibbons' opinion of Paredes is not necessarily grounded in reality, and that this will lead to much annoyance in the coming months.
Spittin, just a reminder that two trades need to be updated/processed on the site:
To BTS: 2016 MiLB 3rd (58)
To Cyborg: Junior Guerra, 2016 MiLB 6th (101)
To BTS: 2016 MiLB 3rd (43)
To AdamGreenwood: Jon Niese, 2016 MiLB 5th (100)
connorp, I have two questions for you:
1. Why are you carrying 8 RP-only players?
2. Do you think this strategy has anything to do with you being about to fall to 20+ games under 0.500?
I've managed to get 3.90, 2.44 and 0.323 with 3 wins and 22 Ks from him. He's serviceable if you don't use him recklessly and Pittsburgh is a decent team so he'll get some wins.
