Dunn
Not surpsied to see the big man out of the lineup. He’s look lost against every breaking pitch he’s seen this series.

If he played for the Pirates...
he’d only play about 50% of the games then. The Pirates tend to bench guys because they supposedly can’t hit a breaking ball.

Donnie Veal says...
In a pre-game interview that next season he will be looked at as a starter. The man can’t pitch 1 full inning and he’s going to start? Haha.

Not a bad list
Many what a difference from a year and a half ago. I’m not sure I wouldn’t have Locke on that list instead of Morris, being a lefty without the injury history. And of course, the short-term bias is one guy just threw a gem, while the other was suspended for behavior.

it breaks up any chance he has of building up momentum. If anything, he needs the confidence…. you’ve got clement in the system now, and he knows he needs to perform… not sure the pressure of fewer at bats is worth it

Mr Reynolds...It's because trades are made to improve the team at some point
and if a major leaguer would improve the team…he wouldn’t be traded because he is already better then the guy you are trading for…why can’t “experts” realize that?

The media has been really polarized in regards to our trades. I think they have legitimate points that we may have received a lot of marginal prospects IF they’ve actually watched these guys play. The problem I have is that a lot of them jump to that conclusion without any facts or observations to base it on.

I agree, but I think it can also be a valid criticism if the commentator feels that we’re not getting proper value for our players. For example I don’t agree with Keith Law much, but at least he mentioned that he thought Alderson had lost velocity and wasn’t a steal like we thought.

The keyboard player turn to me and smiled the biggest shit-eating grin ever before turning back to his roomie and saying….
