May 31, 200422 yr Just like the poll question says, if you could get rid of ONE player right now through a trade or something of that sort, who would it be? Ray Ray or Oliver?
May 31, 200422 yr hands down, oliver. like it or not, we need castro at the moment and he costs us only $400k. oliver is of absolutely no use to us now, and i would love to get his $750k off the books entirely.
May 31, 200422 yr We need Ray to back up Red. Oliver just sucks. Besides, we have Phelps to back up anyone in our rotation.
May 31, 200422 yr Oliver sucks, at least Castro isn't that old and annoying. Castro has upside, whereas Oliver can only get worse it seems.
May 31, 200422 yr Castro has proven he can at least be useful as a pinch hitter. Like it's been said, Oliver just sucks.
May 31, 200422 yr Oliver without a doubt, atleast we can count on Castro to maybe give us a homerun off the bench, as for DO I think the only thing we can count on him for is to blow a lead. He better be the man gone when Beckett comes back.
May 31, 200422 yr Castro. Atleast we've got the talent to replace him. Our best AAA pitchers are a bunch of never weres and never will bes, oh, and Michael Tejera. :plain
May 31, 200422 yr Castro. Notice how Oliver has been on the team for the last 10 days and we've hardly even seen him? Exactly. Castro on the other hand can be seen sucking 3-4 times a week. Dump him NOW.
May 31, 200422 yr Castro by far...Oliver was decent the other day out of the pen, and it's not like we have a lot of other options for him on the pen. Let's give DO a shot people, Castro has had several opportunities to shine and keeps throwing dirt on himself!

Let's give DO a shot people, Castro has had several opportunities to shine and keeps throwing dirt on himself! After reading Oliver's comments this past week or two he can be free to leave. No only does he suck but his comments just piss me off and take me to another level. Castro can head over to the Independent Leagues and play with Ricky Henderson for all I care.

Could anyone post a link to this or something, please?
June 1, 200422 yr I'd rather lose Castro. You can hide Oliver at the end of an 11-man bullpen. It's hard to hide Castro as the #2 catcher when the #1 is somebody like Redmond who needs plenty of time off.

June 1, 200422 yr Castro, not only because he's horrible, but also because he's on trial, i'm not trying to imply he is guilty of that horrible crime, and would hate to punish him for it any way before a verdict is reached, but i can't help but think it casts a dark cloud over him, and he is someone representing this team. i hate to think of that being a story in a city's newspaper whenever the Marlins come to town, (though up to this point it's been a very quiet story in the media)
June 1, 200422 yr Get rid of Castro. Oliver just pisses you off every 5 days and at this rate, I don't see him starting anytime soon. Castro just pisses you off every game.
