Stuff from Dejan...
Jeff Karstens will join the Pirates’ rotation immediately, though John Van Benschoten (tonight) and Yoslan Herrera (Tuesday) will each make his next start. Those performances will dictate who comes out.
If they have similar outings… who’s out? Does Herrera have the advantage because of his last outing?
John Grabow, Tyler Yates and Denny Bautista will share closer duties, but John Russell wants one of them to step up. No committee.
Alright… but unless you have one of them on your fantasy team (why???), I don’t think it matters. Though having Walkman pitch the 9th is kinda frightening in thought.
Ohlendorf needs to be stretched out in AAA before coming up to join the rotation, because he was working as a reliever. Does this mean that both Herrera & JVB will be out of the rotation when Ohlendorf is ready?
Maholm, Duke, Snell… Karstens & Ohlendorf?

Hell
It could be Sir Schizo Snell out with the way he has pitched.
I highly doubt it, but he has absolutely stunk this year.

I think Snell is out of options, so...
if he was out of the rotation they would have to move him to the bullpen.

Yeah
He is and a move to the pen would be fine with me. Of course the next time I get asked for my opinion by the PBC will be the first. :)

The Yanks are apparently willing to take on the rest of his (bad) contract.
Is his contract
over a long period of time?
For some reason, I thought it was just this year.

Oh, okay.

Way to follow up
a somewhat encouraging start with a complete meltdown JVB. Does he room with Snell?
40 man roster
I would say that JVB’s spot on the 40 man will be going to Karstens. Enough is enough.
already on it
“arm” McCutchen will fit nicely
except
JVB couldn’t-a been somebody, instead of a bum which is what he is. Let’s face it, Charley. ‘Member that night at the PNC Park when you said “we’re going with the money on the Pads – that is wasn’t my night?”

Great catch
By S.D. CF. Gerut? It would figure.
via MLBTR
Rosenthal says the A’s have had regular conversations with the Pirates about Jason Bay. Rosenthal notes the A’s are hoping that other teams will balk at the asking price.
Have to question why they’d want him…

Because...
He’s the prototypical moneyball player. He’s young and somewhat you can build around. Beane has restocked his system and still has a competitive team. I guess he thinks his club could compete within a couple of years. On the other hand, maybe after watching Neal in action he thinks he could really take adavantage. Don’t know but the A’s have some interesting pieces. Id still rather see TB pony up.
Yeah, but
I thought they were building for 2012 or what-not (2010?).
Won’t Jason-ity be a FA by then?

i Think Jody Gerut Sandbagged The Buccos
Gerut can play this game.
He looks to be in great shape and certainly has plus speed.
Maybe he just wanted to take the Pirates money and run.
Things must have really been at an all-time low morale-wise with the players during the McClatchy-Littlefield regime.
Someone needs to let Pearce know
that swinging at the first pitch is stupid.

There are several guys
on this team that haven’t figured that out all season.
Yeah
I’m figuring Pearce might get it though, because he just came up.
The rest of the guys are lost causes, for the most part.
Maybe if Eye Chart gets on their case, because we know JR won’t.

Bay A Moneyball Player???
I think not.
Bay is probably going to command BIG money if he plays out his current contract (the balance of this year plus 2009). He could be looking at an absolute minimum, 3 year, $30 million deal ($10 million per).
That is not Beane’s style. I think that Beane knows some other GM that wants Bay and would put together a package deal in the off-season.
Moneyball player now...
until he hits FA. Then he’s gone. Beane will take the picks, or trade him next year (or the off-season). That might be why they want him.
Because it’s highly unlikely he’s there after he becomes a FA.

Bay

Not a bad idea, really...
provided you know how to draft.

Doumit has caught like 100 games in a row. Why leave him in and take out our OF? It makes no sense to me.

Thanks for Marte guys
Made Big Papi look silly today.
I really liked Kontos, and am kind of happy he’s staying. But on the other hand McCutchen has been pretty awesome at AAA and will contribute much faster than either Coke or Kontos.
Karstens, sorry to say, is not someone I’m really impressed with, but he will contribute much faster.
Wow I just checked the mlb box score and did not realize that T.J. Beam was in Pittsburgh.
Don’t sleep on Jose Tabata either. I know he’s raw -but he doesn’t become the 3rd rated prospect in the organization for nothing. The kid will develop power and will live up to his eternal potential.
Anyways it was a great trade for both teams. I’ll be following Karsten’s first start closely.
Thanks for the sentiment
you seem a rational Yankees fan. We can only hope this deal helps both teams. We know it will help you guys in the short run. Damaso was my favorite Bucco.

No problem
Just wait’ll pumpkin season rolls around…
Do we really need him to?
Maholm. Duke (ugh). Snell (double ugh). JVB/Herrera (until Dumatrait gets back). Karstens. Ohlendorf (after he’s stretched out).
Not a bad option for a spot start though, I guess.
The Utah Jazz. The Jazz... duh.
The best NBA team in Utah... no doubts about it!
Playing For Pride. Pirates, Utes, Panthers, and more...
Because, in the end, only one team can "win it all".
I guess we don't
at this point, but the past couple months have been rough

One rainy day in New York...
That’s all it will take before Nady is out with a hamstring injury. Enjoy.
Here's Chavez.
Beam’s done. Nice outing though.

It takes a real mature man
to troll to a MLB website to antangonize and look for reactions. Have you hit puberty yet?

15 minutes?
C’mon, dude, you finished jerking off long before that…

Guys
Let it go. He came here to get everyone fired up. So why get all fired up about what what he says?
At least . . .
. . . we made them use Hoffmann tonight.
Yeah, well . . .
We’ve got him dead to rights tomorrow!!!!
Just trying to divert your attention from the AAA-a team playing San Diego right now...
we could keep going, Rockies fans cant believe they just traded Holliday to the Mets for that same Bay package…they are going nuts…hillarious….how long until i clue them in?

Hey dude.
I have a questoin for you. I’m married along with a lot of other bloggers and die hard fans on this site. You are home on Saturday night posting fake rumors on different blogs for entertainment. My question to you is…have you ever seen a vaigna in person?!! Really you should check it out. It’s a much better way to spend you time. And if you are gay, then you really need to go out and by yourself a man because you obvioulsy are spending way too much time with yourself!!!!! Have fun tonight wacking it while you’re are thinking about how you pulled one over on the Pirate and Rockies fans! You da man, or woman, or whatever!
Don't feed it,
don’t pet it, and maybe it’ll go away.

Well...

I’m glad JR likes giving up though.
He’s worse than half the guys on the team.
