Ramirez is the biggest scrub in baseball I'm gonna be livid if we waste a roster spot on his crusty ***.

Wright's done. Just find a young kid that can play 3rd for the future and maybe play another position as well.
 
Murphy's a free agent at the end of the year, we should just work out some kind of 3 team trade that ships him somewhere and gets us prospects/someone that can play 3rd or something. only thing i like about murph is he's a lefty and we need more lefty's in the lineup for balance.
 
Can Matt Reynolds play at 3B? Why not giving him a shot?

Michael Conforto is killing the minor right now. The best part is that he's a lefty He might make it into the big leagues next year. I do not want to see Cuddyer being our LF next year.
 
You know I wonder if Cuddy can play some 3rd again these days.

I'd try getting Reynolds or Cechinni some reps at 3rd and see if they can handle it.

Looking at Harvey's rough patch last night. Maxwell's homerun, T-Bone was positioned and asking for the ball down in the zone, Harvey left it up over the middle of the plate. Posey's 2-run double, T-Bone was calling for it down and away, Harvey left it up and away. Rushing leads to pitches being left up in the zone and it's hurting him right now.

Plus I think Harvey is throwing too many fastballs. 557 so far while his other pitches have been used between 114 and 157 times. Work in some more changeups man, hitters are sitting on the hard stuff and going after it.

He developed later. If he was a huge prospect, he wouldn't have gone to Texas State :lol:

Edit: I was taking to a friend who played select ball with him, and no one saw this coming :lol:

Oh, darn it. I actually I had a chance to get rid of Wilpons. :lol: Looks like I am going to stuck with Dolan and Wilpons for next 40 years. Let's hope Jeff's son Bradley will be a better owner than his father and grandfather. Bradley is in the Red Sox's farm system. I think.

Why is Harvey still in the game? He's not a four run pitcher. He doesn't have it today, so there's no need for him to be in there

Harvey is such a valuable piece. The Mets are playing with fire now. No Harvey, no Mets down the stretch

Hmm
 
Came across this article on Fat Albert

http://news.wustl.edu/news/Pages/7535.aspx

Looked at his stats on FanGraphs, Pujols has never struck out more than 13.8% of the time in a season :x what an amazing eye and great patience to wait for his pitch and clobber it. Wish more power hitters like Bryant and Stanton could replicate that K%.
