Keep Stone.

I think they should sell. We've seen this movie, there isn't a second half comeback. Sell off Shark, LaRoche, Cabrera, Ramirez, Robertson, anyone who isn't the obvious (sale, q, eaton, rodon, etc.).

As a fellow out of towner, I suggest taking the "L". I'm sure there is a station by your hotel, just make sure to plan ahead. Me, for example: I get to Chicago via Amtrak, so I take Clinton (blue) to Jackson and switch to the red line and get off at Sox-35th. Cell has great food, but it is pricey. For the money I'm going to drop for a polish with onion (which, btw, is the greatest thing ever), a souvenir soda, helmet nachos, you're better off just eating ahead of time. Check out the two blue seats where Pods, and Konerko's homers landed. The statues, the shower. And just have fun. I love the Cell. A lot of people s*** on it, but its my favourite park. And I've been to big crowds, and small crowds and its always fun to be at. I know that seemed like rambling, but I hope it helped.

28 years old and since 2010: 254 /329/468 115 OPS+. Bats left, kind of all over the place on defence (has had a +17 and +18 DRS, but also a -7 season). You get him for this year, and next. I wouldn't totally be against it, but it depends on what the Reds want.

Since their obviously fluky 11-2 start, the Tigers are 31-39.

It sucks because expectations were so high, BUT, this season may end up being better for the long run. Trade Shark, and maybe LaRoche get a few young players back. Have a top 10 draft pick and get another Rodon/Fulmer or get an ML ready bat like the Cubs have done.

Anychance we can give Jerry Dipoto a job in our FO?

Ken Macha, Ron Washington, Bud Black, Ron Roenicke, Dave Martinez or the bench coach of a team that's been successful lately like the Pirates, or the A's.

Randomly bought a Wintersun album at the local used music shop. The results have pleased me.

Greg is a troll, right?

Davidson does have a 113 wRC+ in AAA. Is he really doing that badly?

No they could not. They're not also getting value out of trading Quintana either so stop asking.

I love 506. Always lets me know when the Bears are on in town.

Eaton's numbers have, slowly, been going up all year. A few blips down on the way up, but still: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/...p;t=b&year=

110 wRC+?

Macha, Roenicke, or Gardy as a last resort, please.

Eaton looks lost up there.

:lol: :lol:

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 09:09 AM) Neither of those things work in baseball. Baseball contracts are fully guaranteed, meaning they are getting their money, no matter what. They can release him, but they are still obligated to pay the full amount due for the next basically two years. You also can't hide a guy on the DL for a whole year. The union would have a meltdown. Didn't they do that to Paulino?

I'll be there. Hoping to end my 7 game attendance losing streak, haven't seen a win IRL since 2010.

In your opinion, Rock, what is his ceiling?

No thanks, Douglas.

Give me Ken Macha plz.
