I am more curious about the AA allstar that was never heard from again... did we open an investigation... parents are probably worried.

For one, Markakis isn't likely to keep up his current pace regardless of who is on the team. And secondly, Solarte is a vastly better player than Flaherty. A team trying to make a deep playoff run needs good players and Solarte is a good player that makes the entire bench better. The cost shouldn't be prohibitive. Likely no one in current top 10. Probably looking more at a Wisler type (or less).

Neck is playing for a contract. If he produced the way he did the last 3 years then he is likely one of those aging vets hoping to get some kind of deal in ST.

Anyone know who Teheran's brother-in-law is? We should totally get him on the team to improve JT's stats.
just to clarify if we acquire Solarte or someone similar I would not cut Flaherty...i would option Tucker to AAA...let him play every day and get sharp and call him up when rosters expand...its a win win win scenario...unless Tucker is best friends with Freddie or something
btw...i do not think these human element or team chemistry considerations are trivial
it is also worth emphasizing that Muk is a pro's pro...i dont see him pouting if his brother in law is released

Paul: Can you expand on that Brett Cumberland jump?

Eric A Longenhagen: Kiley saw him, thought the defense had improved, we each checked with people who had seen him and got general agreement. We both think he’s going to hit and if you fold a stronger likelihood that he’ll catch into the profile, it’s much, much stronger. We also have a lot of catchers with good bats toward the back of the 50 FV section and he fits with those guys.
I looked it up and I guess the rules changed.. It used to be that a player must be on the 25 man roster before Sept 1 in order to be post-season eligible (injuries not withstanding). Of course there were ways around that as teams often claimed injuries in order to get a certain player on the roster.
