So we'd be paying basically 20 million for about 70 innings. I'd like to improve the team, but that's a steep price for a guy we have no control over and will pay to go away next year.
2 hours ago2 hr Always appreciate the hustle Miggy, but it's okay to consider the game situation a bit there.

I can't remember his name there one Sox kid in AA complaining he should be in AAA.Too many knee jerk reactions on our part. It's a great thing to bring a player up and be productive replacing an injured player. Other organizations don't have that.

He's been a quality vet, but I agree that it would help the roster construction to free up some lefty DH ABs.

1 hour ago1 hr This Orioles lineup is way too good to get Fedde’d like this. I get we’re still up six runs, but one more base runner and you got to pull him.

1 hour ago1 hr Isn’t Sonny Gray known to struggle in the second half? Quick research shows his ERA goes up by .31 in the second half during his career
