McCann strikes me as a guy who would value the security of an extension over top dollar in the future. Sale and Q both made the same decision.

Yeah...Gillaspie was a laugh a minute.

Madrigal probably is.

If we could win yesterdays mismatch I can see no reason why this game should be out of reach. Let's get er done.

McCann is just plain good. Everything he does looks best of best. By the way...his arm is excellent.

Like someone that knows how to pitch. Good tempo/mixed pitches well/no walks/didn't look like a deer caught in the headlights. Want to see more of this guy. Much more polished than most of the callups we see.

He wasn't stupid or cheap. Just didn't have the money to run a major league club.

Yep

The ASG is a name recognition big market game. Has nothing to do with sending the best player to the game. Doubt if I'll watch.

The 25 viable arms is not an exaggeration. Pitchers have gone down in droves this season. Oh for the days when we had Wilbur Wood to thrown both ends of the double header. What would he be worth in today's baseball.

The good news coming out of Anderson's injury is seeing Garcia play short so adequately. I didn't remember how competent he can be all over the field. A guy this versatile allows the team to carry an extra catcher or pitcher on a championship team.

Draft and trades is where the core players need to come from. FA can fill in the gaps. Trying to buy your team is prohibitively expensive.

Getz

Has a great bat & arm and seems to call a solid game...what's not to like.

That doesn't mean his price isn't going up and I believe significantly.

Detwiler was the story of the night with only two runs and no walks to a powerful lineup. Has an assortment of pitches and throws everything for strikes. All on short rest. Want to see more of him. McCann & Eloy were also involved in fun moments.

Getting more expensive every day they wait to extend him.

I think we better keep Colome. He has been very useful.

Good Call.

Your direct line to Ricky must not be working.

Without a doubt.

I'm starting to feel better about our chances in this game. Who would a thunk it?

Well...isn't that special? When he hits them...they really go.

Bummer pulled himself together. Walks are not a pitchers friend. Apparently Ricky made the right call leaving Bummer in.
