Ozzie calls him Crochette. This move will cost JR probably around the exact same amount it would cost him to launch Pedro and pay someone else. IMO, that would be a better way to spend his limited cash.
I knew they would be bad, but I figured they would be better than last year. They still have to play 22 under .500 to match last season, but it's obviously heading that way. If they play .500 from here on out, they will lose 90 games.
