knightni Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 How does a guy with a 1.80 era in 60 innings in AAA play so poorly in the majors? Damn. He's 31. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Lindsay's the same age as me and obviously we're both Australian. I'll be rooting for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerbaho-WG Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Both good low risk signings. Lindsay looked like he was really good until he caught the injury bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Kinney looks like a good low risk acquisition. Bullpen is all about grabbing onto some good luck at low prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
