    Nion-roster invitees announced; Ruiz, Hunter, Mallex included

    Lest we forget, pitchers and catchers report in less than 3 weeks. There will be no small amount of curiosity over camp.

    Sugar Ray Marimon, Chien-Ming Wang and Donnie Veal sound like they'd be on Harang's menu.

    I'm concerned he's a little too premature to be ready for the big show

    They must really like Camargo. Not that there's nothing to like, but it will be interesting to see where he starts the season. Could be Carolina. Could be Mississippi.

    I'd rather not call him up and watch him take a pounding. His pysche is already tender.

    Really interested to see Mallex Smith and Rio Ruiz among all the guys invited. I think at least one of these 2 guys could earn a significant portion of playing time if given a shot.

    Veal? The racism from this organization is just getting ridiculous.

    Ruiz is going to impress the FO. His bat is very advanced for his age. He might come quick.

    Donnie Veal...

    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
