The Odorizzi signing was as much about eating valuable innings as anything. There is little chance he is moved to the pen while the young arms...
Lol, ok...in these cases though, the "win" was probably just as much in Crane's seat as Clicks, but that's fine I guess Luhnow should get credit...
Agree but unless someone wants to take on Verlander for the rest of the year, and he would have to agree with it cause Crane by all accounts wants...
Yea if anyone is wanting to acquire a true “impact player” then prepare to be disappointed lol Even if he were willing to move one of the young...
Giving the extensions is great and all (and yes I know that in the Brantley case it was a “free agent” signing) but I’ll get more excited about...

The Jose who had given up 5 runs in his previous 29 2/3 innings coming into yesterday? Or you want Altuve in the pen?
I especially laugh when I see Garcia, Whitley and Brown being moved together Obviously Whitley and Brown are high risk...but they are also high...
Kennedy and Yimi are excellent rentals Throwing those kids in the pen would be innings fillers, I want to win
