Thanks for playing Hector

With the junk Hector was throwing it was only a matter of time before that happened

So much better than watching Flowers already

Speaking of the Pirates they have a scout here and its not for pitching

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 08:22 PM) How about we don't have him throw 123 pitches in a game? Hey man I'm not advocating for any of that.

Only a matter of time before Hector gets blown up here. Looks awful.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 08:15 PM) I missed the top of the 2nd, what was the issue with Santiago/Phegley? Hector wasnt paying attention and could have picked off Soriano. But instead he threw it for a strike and Josh didnt make a throw. No point.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 08:08 PM) I agree, I don't mind if Rios sticks around. However, when you start hearing scouts echo what many of us have said on here about the lack of hustle by players on this team, it gets frustrating. That'll be taken care of when this season ends.

Personally I dont care if they hang on to Rios. Teams dont give you what you want then screw them.

Looks like Hector doesnt feel like throwing strikes

Garza going to take a nap?

Ahhh people on 670 the Score Facebook Page....clearly dont have any clue what a full rebuild is.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 7, 2013 -> 08:24 PM) I'd say the likelihood of Rios getting traded is falling precipitously. I don't think we want to give him away and that is looking like what we'll have to do unless he catches fire in a hurry. Fine with me

Just a couple more weeks guys...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 07:03 PM) Headed towards being in the bottom 5 in ERA, WHIP and BAA He was going to come completely unraveled at some point. His stuff is AAA level.

God damn he sucks

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 06:55 PM) Please question mine. A rookie 5th starter with an era around 5? Actually...not all that bad. With average to below average pitches....yep sounds like rotation material

He's throwing meatballs right now

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 06:54 PM) Coming up to a 5 ERA. Hopefully he's not in the long term plans of this organization. I question anybody's sanity if they look at Axelrod and see the future

Axelrod....you arent very good.

About time

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 2, 2013 -> 01:37 PM) Rangers acquired more pool space from the Marlins. From MLBTR : "Texas started out with a $1.94MM bonus pool, but they increased that figure by reaching an agreement with the Marlins." They are still over it even with the increased figure from the Marlins. They spent roughly 4.4 million.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 2, 2013 -> 01:55 PM) I'm so f***ing confused with these new draft and signing rules and what not. I don't even want to spend the time to learn either. Whats really happening now is teams are just screwing the system. Teams are collecting more bonus money slots and some teams are going way over their bonus pool because the consequences only impact them for one year. Time for a International Player Draft.4 Cubs are collecting slots with the trades they are doing The Rangers spent roughly 4.4 million in this free agency period when they only had I think it was 1.6 million. They cant spend any next year but the year after they can spend a huge amount of money again.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 2, 2013 -> 01:05 PM) Paul Sullivan ‏@PWSullivan Marmol trade to Dodgers official. Cubs gets Guerrier. Dodgers also get No. 4 intl signing binus slot. Cubs send Torreyes to Houston. They get the Astros number 2 and 3 international signing bonus slots from that last trade

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 2, 2013 -> 12:46 PM) Also keep in mind, if we end up as badly as we have started this season, our next year number will go up big time. Right and this is why some teams are going for broke this year. Their pool would have went down next year.
