    Is the BP rested enough to consider yanking RAD if he sturggles early today?

    I doubt the trade for Bautista for Profra makes sense. SS is not a long term hole in the org. Sexy player, but a Bautista trade for other holes would make more sense (ie 2nd base). Maybe we flip Bautista and force someone to take salary (MB?), and then use that space to get Cano. as for trading Bautista, all you have to do is say: "with the emergence of Encarnacion, we thought it was a good time to move Bautista". There are other benefits: I think you would see someone more fitting to take over the leadership position. One of the benefits (amongst some drawbacks) of having Rogers, a media company, own the team, is that they are awesome at PR. Perhaps too good, given the hype of the season. But in the case of Bautista, it helps, because the marketing guys can quickly re-frame the team around an Encarnacion and Reyes, and convince the fans to move on from the Bautista love. How many more dingers does Bautista have in his current contract, anyway? 90 over the three seasons? 80? 100?

    Jim Negrych would have had that ball. and a hit or two. Just sayin.

    AA on Bautista at contract signing: "we are signing the human being as much as the player." nice one!
  5. Buster
    I think it became clear to AA over the past interleague games that an extra bat off the bench would be helpful.

    officiating in the MLB is by far the worst of the Big4 leagues.

    "We'll give you Bautista, JJ, and JPA for Profar. Deal?" "I'm sorry we can't do that deal. No way. We'll do Bautista and JJ for Profar."
  8. Buster
    This is the problem when the media empire also owns the team. The PR side of it become a much bigger concern.
  9. Buster
    how did AA mess up so bad on his assessment of Izturis. Can't hit, and a s*** fielder.
  10. Buster
    Why I am not shocked that Boni and JPA screwed us.
  11. Buster
    Dont you usually hit and run on a guy that can make contact. Rasmus is either homer or hit a home run.
  12. Buster
    Occam's Razor suggests that it's simply age, although it's probably a combination of factors, like most things. But I think a big part of it is him simply losing it.
  13. Buster
    The team would have been better off without the deep pockets of Rogers. It would be continuing to build organically. "All-in" is so easy to screw up.
  14. Buster
    The team spends millions and millions and they can't figure out how pay whatever it takes to get Joe Maddon out of Tampa? Literally hand the guy a contract and ask him to fill in the numbers. It's cheaper than having Rick Ankiel 2.0 getting paid 7 mil in Single A

    His performance is what it is: terrible. What you can attribute that poor performance to impacts how I view Dickey and the future. So yes...I would hope that his suckage is based on the most curable problem: an injury. As opposed to, say, age....or "losing it." I'm not hoping for him to get injured...I'm hoping that's why he is sucking. SeewhatImean?
  16. Buster
    I usually start a rant thread with the hopes that it will degrade into a reasonable conversation. This post is a good start. I'm hoping he has a pretty bad injury. It's the best case scenario.
  17. Buster
    Who cares about Syndergaard....we have Nolin. Oh wait.
  18. Buster
    Big gamble. Lost. Sorry AA. That trade is embarrassing in hindsight.
  19. Buster
    what a bunch of f***ups
  20. Buster
    I cant recall those 6 AB's...did he look ok, or lost in them?
  21. Buster
    I'm curious too.
  22. Buster
    These guys are hitting their groove. I PVR the show.
  23. Buster
    The reason this happens 99% of the time behind closed doors is because it can be destructive when done publicly, and 99% of the players know it. Lawrie is one of the 1% that doesn't seem to know that.
  24. Buster
    Just saw a replay of that idiocy in the 9th, yelling at Lind for not running on a sac fly to Markakis.
  25. Buster
    I hate this team.
