chw42 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 At least management knows this team will be historically bad. Why else would they be signing free agents like Pham and Clevinger? The fact that they're trying to save face from being historically awful at least proves they are capable of shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because Benintendi's contract exists doesn't mean you should sign another old player, with a reputation as a hot head (culture!!!) when you're in rebuilding mode. Getz's moves get to be judged based on his merit, not KW/Hahn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I totally agree, my point is just that Pham is probably a better baseball player at 1/100th of the cost and I wanted to pile on Rick Hahn a little bit. Absolutely pointless to sign him, though maybe that hot head energy can breathe some life into the team. I'll take bat flippers over sad sacks.

Sambuca Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I’m okay with hiring Tommy Pham to come in this clubhouse and start slapping some people in the face. Might even be the best hitter on the team while he’s at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if that will do any good or what may be going on in the clubhouse that caused Crochet to say that. (The assumption is that maybe things are to laid-back right now causing him to say that.) You also wonder if Grifol has already lost the clubhouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also wonder if Grifol has already lost the clubhouse. 1. Things he mention when he was hired about things he seen from the basement dugout about the team. 2. "I didn't like the team". He's quite clueless on what to say in our sensitive society. Plus he was eager and foolish enough to take on a team full of head cases. That's not something for a manager with no experience. This season is set up to where he can't really fail nor really succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team isn't in 'rebuilding mode' yet, it is still tearing down and putting in a few rickety old props to try to stop the whole house falling down.

I believe the house has collapsed, the entire plot of land has disappeared into a sink hole and someone threw a stick of dynamite down into the hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
