Fegan on deadline acquisitions...

Very little actually said here. Summary for anyone that cares:

1.) They believe in all of the guys they brought on and have plans for all of them which they are hoping lead them all to being productive.

2.) Proclaims “changes during the season are hard, even small ones.”

And that’s about all. Some specifics about bringing Castillo’s change back, hope for Doyle to return to his 20 home run potential, and Brazoban’s arm angle having been different prior to his injury that they seem to equate to his poor performance since coming over.

“These guys could give us meaningful production in October which would be great”

“It’s hard to judge impact in just three week”

Stuff like that.

Changes are hard mid season which is why it’s strange that Getz went out and acquired two projects out of four total additions.

His moves were telling. To me they spoke of arrogance. He’s really firm in the belief in the departments he’s built and he’s really firm in his belief of our kids on the farm.

I think that arrogance was shortsighted where there should have been a more balanced approach. There should have been more of a willingness to sacrifice some of the future for the present.

Oh well… if it doesn’t pan out and he owns this, I’ll forgive it. If it pans out then he was right and he’ll earn some respect.

Big gamble in my book. But then again, this team has responded every single time they are challenged or questioned… so maybe he has cause to feel such confidence.

Another example we all likely forgot about was that Woods kid that we got in the Gonzo deal with Pittsburgh. Dude got lit up like a Christmas tree in his first Charlotte outing but has since gone something like 11 games 1.43 ERA and double digit strikeouts.

That may be another example of taking on a project and his coaching staff bringing results.
