Sheets over Fletcher…of course

Who TF in this org thinks that Sheets is still good and worthy of a roster spot at this point?  Guy should be DFA regardless of control.

Yeah we had more in our gym for Regionals.

We play our big rival at the Alamo Dome to start the season.

He has to be the worst player in baseball the last two months

To me Sheets is a 4A slugger sort of Luke Easter lite. If they ever get better he is gone. 

I like Connor McLight.

Problem is he can’t even slug anymore.  He hasn’t homered in almost two months.

He slugged in his rookie season and that’s about it.

Thank goodness for the Bears Hard Knocks episode

They do?  These at bats are atrocious 

Umpire scorecard is going to be bad

Fitting for these two teams 

Valdez 3 outs from a no-no, headed to bottom of 9th. In case anyone wants to watch an actual MLB team.

why start now

Oscar Colas’ 92 wRC+ in the majors is the third highest of those still in the org behind Moncada (120) & Remillard (95).  He continues to rot in AAA while we continue to a play a no hitting 1B in the OF.  Make it make sense.

it's crazy that Getz hasn't DFAd anyone from the bullpen, in fact he's made it worse (if you can believe that) by getting rid of Kopech and Banks.  how the f*** do these relievers still have jobs when we can at least call up some lottery tickets from Charlotte or Birmingham.

Well he's laboring out there and still keeping the game scoreless. That's impressive.

They clearly don’t like him, and he’s been bad in AAA

I know some will disagree, but the relief arms in the minors are pretty damn bad. 

How does someone swing through Stripling’s mediocre fastball?

Damn i thought Vaughn had that

Poor Vaughn, that’s gone with an aluminum bat in college

And that’s why he’s been a massive bust
