    Been wondering about this. I still don't understand how someone has a bad year and wins an arbitration case.

    The decision is based off the past two years, not just the previous one. Mike was very good in 2013.

    What the **** do you have to do to lose an arbitration case?

    can't believe this isn't worthy of its own thread.

    Does it even really matter about Minor? $500,000 doesn't seem that much of a problem with some of the hacks we signed.

    On another note, pumped that ST is finally, finally here.

    It's right in and amongst Disney World, so there's no lack of places to stay or things to do.

    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?

    There’s an amusement park nearby. Worth checking out.

    Fredi Gonzalez audio interview with Grant McCauley. Toward the end there's talk of the 5th starter battle, and Fredi lists all the usual candidates and then says that the winner may be "someone they haven't thought of". If Wandy / Stults don't look like the answer, I think they go out and get a veteran off the scrap heap versus giving the job to Folty.

    I was very surprised Minor won in arbitration. I figure him winning makes it even more likely that he'll be traded sometime this season or in the off-season.

    I'm getting more and more excited about this season. Its pretty clear they are molding this team around how the Royals and Giants built their clubs, and we will see what happens, but I'm one of the few that think we can compete with pitching and small ball. Future is super bright as well.
