Yea I'm sure it wasn't a driving force at all But if the DL option was discussed at all (it probably wasn't but that's what I was responding...
Fiers will be fine Wasn't even expecting to pitch last night. Then has to warm up quick, go in a crazy game with little notice, and throw in...
Plus, the AAA stint pretty much assures no Super 2.
Yea man I know it's not a vacation I'm aware it's his job If he would rather be in Fresno and save some cash, that almost certainly won't be a...
Yep, I agree
His signing bonus was 2.5 Million I make a decent living, enough that I took a 19 day golf vacation this summer, through 4 states and played 24...
Right What i'm saying is he will go back to the minor league rate, regardless of where his actual human body physically is. That part is a...
I agree that is how it "should" be But you are dealing with a bunch of different ego's and situations where it isn't always that simple. I also...
I don't think it would affect his salary. If he is optioned, then whatever that does to the salary would be done. The only thing he would miss out...
Also, guys like Ramos, Allen and Smith are not signed to big contracts, Smith is at 500K and the other in arb years. Those guys would be very...

Maybe it is a "non-issue" (hope it's ok to use quotations, lol) But the two plays he didn't make last night, while in a crazy high scoring game...
Yea we simply can't get swept Not only would it give the Angels a break, it would leave the Cockroaches only 5 games back with a long way to...
Guess we will just have to disagree While I haven't been crazy about the 13 man pen all year, Hinch has obviously gotten used to it. Neshek...
Ha, not hardly He is at 105 2/3 innings right now, and we have two months left plus playoffs 2012: 26 innings 2013: 104 innings 2014: 97...
Oh i'm sure they know how to accurately explain it to him, no doubt about that. Let's not forget we are dealing with a 21 year old "kid"...
They are about the same size, so it's not like they want Valbuena over there because he has a longer stretch or great reach
No way they would even consider optioning Tucker. Tucker has been hitting very well vs RHP, heck he is the cleanup man vs RHP right now
Agree, and if they were just removing the long man and going with a 7 man pen, that would be ideal. They removed the long man AND another...
