21 hours ago21 hr I can’t believe Romo is this bad and that the Sox don’t want to give Lee/Haase a shot yet. Let’s use this thread to track any catchers that get DFA’ed going forward.

20 hours ago20 hr Korey Lee hit above .250 in 40 plate appearances last year and had a .4 defensive WAR and a .3 overall. Romo is -.5 and. 1 defensively. Even though lee wasn't good his other years he is still light years ahead of romo offensively. Romo makes Vinny Crapa look like Luis Arraez. He is so bad offensively you have to do something else. Like release him. 7-81 is what he has done lately. You literally can't find a worse player. I don't care if he is ivan Rodriguez behind the plate. He is costing you runs and games. Romo had 1 extra base hit the last 2 months.

20 hours ago20 hr Another stat. I found the lowest OPS in the last 30 years for players with 200 plate appearances. Drew is at 154 plate appearances i think. Drew Romo would be the 4th worst the last 30 years. Here are 3 worse. Edited 20 hours ago20 hr by Ozzie for Manager

And after looking Vinny up I have to correct myself. Capra has a .133 career batting average so he is only slightly better than romo.Vinny is actually having a hell of a year in AAA for Boston Edited 20 hours ago20 hr by Ozzie for Manager

He got a little bit typecast into the arrogant pompous old grouch role but he was a magnificent and hilariously funny actor. He was great not only in Caddyshack, but also Too Close for Comfort and the Mary Tyler Moore show.
