That is probably best. Being rushed to the Majors (due to Rule 5) may be the reason for his shortcomings. If not for Rule 5, he probably would have spent last year in AA and this year in AAA.

Shop all of the relievers, even the young ones. I am not saying trade them all, but do not hesitate to trade any reliever who brings a good return.

Do you fantasize about being more proficient at handling a shooting situation than professional cops?

Drafting is a different skill set from other GM duties. Drafting requires good scouting and doing the work to determine the order in which players should be drafted. Trading requires more negotiation and deal making which someone might not be good at even if they know who to target. This is an oversimplification, but I can definitely see where someone could be competent in one and incompetent in the other.

I have been a Hill supporter for a while. if he turns out to be good, I can't take credit for it though. I know nothing about him. I just liked his stats and the fact that nobody was talking about him. Hill > Wentz.

Nothing more American than a mass shooting on Independence Day.

Skubal was one of the best pitchers in baseball for two months. Now, he is awful. What happened?

According to Beck, Rony Garcia to the IL (sore shoulder) and Garrett Hill starting on Monday. My boy Hill is getting his shot!

Honus Wagner is insulted.

Hope we didn't corrupt you too much. Happy Birthday!

They Red Sox paid him big money when he was still a good innings eater. If he could still do that, someone would have paid him.

I was talking about Rodriguez, although it applies to Pineda too.

A pitcher who can give you 180 average innings a year is good and not that easy to find. Of course, pitching doesn't matter too much when you are getting shut out by the Royals.

Average innings eaters are good pitchers. His problem has been that he doesn't pitch that many innings most yerars.

Yes, parents have been more supportive of children with each generation. This can go too far, but I think there is more good than bad in giving support.

Helicopter parenting is too much support. Neglectful parenting is too much freedom which I think is more dangerous. The idea is to find the right balance.

Who knows? Maybe he saw a bag of burgers and fries in the front seat.

Sorry, but I don't see anything in that video which would indicate he is trying to take control of the vehicle.

They were treated like animals for the majority of the nation's history. It is still hard to imagine that they couldn't play major league baseball until 1947. In my lifetime, there have been segregated restaurants, segregated coutry clubs, etc. Despite laws existing to protect and give opportunities to Blacks they know there are still many people out there who view them as inferior and would favor segregation.

I think helicopter parents are better than the opposite extreme. I think a good balance of support and freedom is the best. Come to think of it, that is how I feel about liberals and conservatives as well.

You know you're getting old when you start talking about how weak the next generation is!

This is the real reason the GOP donors wanted a right wing reactionary court. They don't care about abortion at all. It's all about giving more power to big business to do whatever they want without regard for the health and safety of employees or the country.

Cheap labor for business is one of the main drivers of illegal immigration. If they punished the businesses for hiring illegal immigrants, I believe that illegal immigration would decline significantly.
