I went on a two mile walk yesterday.

Of course, it was forced after my EFFING car was towed. CSers, my apartment management…I turn in my notice after over two years of being a more than perfect tenant…and then my car gets towed for not having a parking sticker…regardless of the fact that I have parked in that exact fucking carport spot for over TWO YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Evan on BMac:
With two men on, RHP Brandon McCarthy ended an Angels’ third-inning rally with a strike out of Vladimir Guerrero on a sharp "slurve." The 79 mph pitch broke away from Guerrero and had him well out in front of the pitch. And while the ball ended up out of the strike zone, he kept it low and away.

At this point I would rest Turco for half the remaining games...

But both Turco and Tippett are stubborn sometimes. It’s unfair what they’ve done with Stephan, but he hasn’t exactly given the team a good feeling when he’s played.

At this point, it doesn’t matter much. Wait till you see who is playing defense tomorrow in front of Marty.

Why?

there’s a lot not to like about Feldman, but it’s not like he has overpowering stuff or is a high K pitcher.

by FirebatM3 on Mar 29, 2009 5:03 PM CDT up reply actions  

His ideal role is a swingman/mid reliever, I think

He had trouble after the 5th inning last year and I don’t think his stuff is good enough to stick in the rotation long-term. So I’m not worried about sticking him in the bullpen to start the year.

After all, he’ll probably just be back in the roto by midseason.

by LSJ on Mar 29, 2009 5:09 PM CDT up reply actions  

He throws

91ish, that’s plenty enough for a rotation guy. If you think he has the stuff or the control for the rotation, you let him work up the stamina cause in the end, even a #4 or #5 is better than another mid innings guy in the pen

by FirebatM3 on Mar 29, 2009 5:12 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't think he's good enough to be a #4 or 5

Tommy Hunter should be in line for that job anyway.

Given their

why would TB do it?

isn’t he their fifth starter now that price is in AAA? Hammel strikes me as a bullpen guy so until Price is called up he’s the guy.

If I was TB I would not trade my fifth starter for a 4th OF who will be a FA next year and who you might not want to offer ARB to due to his age.

Niemann is the kind of guy that you feel just fine about having in AAA for the rest of the year as injury protection after Price gets called up. If you want to do something with him wait until the trade deadline or the off-season IMO.

that Byrd gets an A ranking next year? I just think Niemann has enough upside as a pen arm that you’d be better off getting a players like that vs. 1 year of Byrd.

Let's put it this way

There are a variety of Niemann’s out there — we claimed one on waivers at the end of spring training last year. You grab them on waivers or get them for the Frank Catalanottos of the world or sign them as NRIs…you don’t trade starting caliber OF’ers for them.
