wham!
“Speaking of pitchers, the guy below doesn’t have any issues with back stiffness. Too bad you can’t rewind to two months ago, huh? By the way, Cha-Seung Baek (the uniformed guy in the picture below) told me the team’s explanation to him the night he was designated for assignment was that he’d gone back-to-back nights and a fresh arm was needed. Kind of what we’d figured all along, but that’s a tough pill to swallow. You groom a guy, see him have some success in the majors, then lose him because you need a long reliever every second night. Oh well. Baek starts tomorrow against his former team.” –Geoff Baker, The Mariner Blog
Hear that? That’s the sound of Mariner fans hitting their heads against walls, tables, pretty much anything within reach. Could we at least get a GM who isn’t so bad at roster construction that he has to cut a prospect to add another releaver? Sheesh.
