May 28, 20223 yr Nothing to gloat about and he will get a shot with a team that can field. Still stuck with a meh team and bad org.

Although this case is quite different from Dunn, Keppinger, Herrera, Alonso, Holland, Eaton and LaRoche to name a few. Dunn at least was a nice guy and contributed a lot in 2012.

I think we still owe Keuchel around $12 million the rest of the year. Hahn is so good at wasting money lol. Money he could have used for a quality 2B and/or RF.

May 28, 20223 yr One of the worst starters to wear a Sox uniform. Man he stunk. Sox have had a ton of miserable pitchers and he was right up there.
May 28, 20223 yr So this makes Harrison the player on roster with the hottest seat? Disappointments in Grandal, Garcia, Pollock, and Moncada all have extra years on contract. So it has to be Harrison. Especially with 2-3 viable minor leaguers excelling at 2b right now.

Yes I know who you meant and you're probably right about Keuchel, he seems to like pointing his finger at everyone. It'll be interesting to see what he says. Jerry has given Hahn/KW plenty of money to build and better this team, but they've wasted to much of it. I'm sure Jerrys talking to his buddy and wouldn't be to surprised to see TLR as our next GM. and that really scares me

Adam Dunn stole 19 bases for the Reds in 2002 as a 22 year old. If you can imagine that.
May 28, 20223 yr Good. I think it's pretty obvious he was a fucking cheater, just like most Astros. His numbers after the substance crackdown are pretty telling.
May 28, 20223 yr I didn't like Keuchel the moment the signing was announced and i heavily dislike him now. Good riddance and one of the dumbest signings from a dumb organization.

May 28, 20223 yr I can’t help but say that yes, there are other options than trotting DK out there every 5th game as has been weirdly argued. Such as, not trotting him out there.
May 28, 20223 yr I bumped the thread from 2019 but locked it. There may be another one, but I couldn't find it. Parkman for the win on this one.
May 28, 20223 yr 4 hours ago, Jack Parkman said: And there was much rejoicing. Yay. Rejoicing is not the word I would use. Relief. Relief that someone took the shovel out of the guy’s hand that was digging furiously at the bottom of the hole in the front yard. And beat that guy over the head with it. And, we are relieved the hole in the front yard stopped getting deeper.
