It would be nice if that gets taken care before ST ends where we can take a look at him sooner rather than later. Hope to hear something on Olivera soon too, including the Braves signing him (though I am guessing Padres or Dodgers at this point).Originally Posted by dak
I guess I'll be the one to say it. Everyone made such a stink about Callaspo being a fat ass. But I'm looking at him and for a baseball player I would just say that he looks at worst moderately fat to me.
thank you weso1!
rniki running after KJ.
Anyone here have the same impression as me that Ciriaco has passed Gosselin?
I've liked Pedro for years due to his versatility, but Bowman has been making fun of him every chance he gets (including twitter and a recent interview). Bowman keeps saying he can't hit a curve ball, only a fastball. He basically keeps using him as an example that someone can have good Spring Training stats and still "suck" in other words.
Joe West has been terrible all night, that last strike three call on Perez was off the corner and not a strike. Oh well.
Peterson with a hit, very good AB too as he worked the count full before a line drive single to center. A lot better AB than his first few tonight.

Atlanta relief pitchers not having a good night so far.
We must be leading all teams in giving up double digit runs.
Perez chased a bad one that last AB to strikeout, looked like he was trying to do too much that whole AB (two homerun swings to start it). He looked much better his first four AB's though.
Veras released per Bowman and DOB
My guess is you're missing DOB's attempt at becoming a comedian.
Pedro Ciriaco = Pedro Cerrano

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?

Pastornicky released
Edit: was he on the 40 man?
nvmnd... saw he was off the 40 man earlier in the off season... was wondering if it meant a different move, but guess not.

He was DFAd earlier on, but cleared waivers and was reassigned to Gwinnett.
I would love to trade Callaspo for a case of Coke Zero, but nobody sane is taking that three million contract. This signing baffles and infuriates me.

He looks like a defensive liability who can’t hit that we just signed for $3 million to me. Granted, he clearly offers something that Stella! and Goss don’t, but I can’t imagine what that is. (I know, I know … gritty, a vet, and great in the clubhouse.)

In concert with trading La Stella, who costs the relative equivalent of a case of Coke Zero, it's a bit of a head-scratcher.
Mark Bowman
@mlbbowman
One scout who recently watched Pastornicky on the back fields said he appeared to be pouting about not getting an invite to big league camp

Nah, I caught that from DOB. What Bowman said wasn't a joke, you can listen to this interview with Bowman for the context: https://soundcloud.com/gmcauley/3181...rogress-report
So we release him and call him a crybaby going out the door. Nice.
I liked the Veras pick-up so of course we release him.
