I missed that.

I jumped off that bus at about 7:25 last night. I’ve wasted my time defending Fauberto for too long. I can still see how the brain-trust can justify the signing, but alas it did not work.

I was wrong. And it’s a dirty, rotten shame. He has been absolutely atrocious.

And that’s the excuse we get from AF. What will happen once we lose the revenue sharing pot?

The real issue in my mind lies in following “the process” to a point of insanity. The Marlins brought Miggy up young and for good reason. The Rays need to let go of the concept of holding guys down so long. I would rather have a World Series and lose that special player that helped a few years later to free agency any day; he’s just going to free agency a year earlier. Roberto Hernandez should never have been in this rotation. Chris Archer should have been there from day one; nuff said.

Sardonic asides aside, I still ask of optimistic Rays fans like you, what’s the formula for possible improvement? You deal in the realistic? Tell me what Fuld is doing on this team besides educating JoMa on sabermetrics? Financially, a 62.5 million dollar payroll will only get you to the Series if all planets are in alignment. We had our shot in 2008. It won’t happen at 62.5 again. The future? How long will MLB tolerate a city drawing maybe 25,000 against the Yanks before the plug is pulled?
Have you noticed that on 3 occasions this year Durham actually out drew us?
You deal with rays colored glasses on.

Just mentioning it as a sardonic aside to a bad night.

Its cold hard reality. T chart pluses versus minuses

I deal here in the possible and the realistic and the financially feasable, presently AND long term.

When you suggest firing 1/6 of the roster, then correct yourself but then up the ante with canning Maddon in May………..well…..Don has found a soulmate who can actually communicate in the written english.

Let’s just throw at Cano, Ortiz, Bautista, Pedroia, Jones, Davis, and Weiters till we put all of them on the DL.

Maddon goes first. His inconsistent management style and his tongue in cheek wise ass assessments of each game have grown stale. He walks Cano tonight yet lets Farnsworth face Bautista on Thursday. He lets Hellickson throw 117 pitches yet consistently pulls Cobb and Moore once they hit 100. He tinkers with the lineup way too much. He relishes being “unconventional” yet never takes the blame for his FUBARS. His club house management style has already brought negative comments from newcomers Loney and KJ.
No, I wouldn’t suggest dispatching all six mentioned in one fell swoop. Fuld must go though. We really can’t afford a .170 LH hitting outfielder. Myers or Guyer need to be up. SRod, he sucks, give Beckham a shot. Granted, we’re stuck at catcher, but I can live with Molobaton for now. Roberts, he’s fine as an occasional insert but that’s it.
1/3th of the season is here. The sky may not be falling but it’s been pretty cloudy so far. What is the plan? Hurry up and wait? Good luck with that.
