December 4, 200718 yr Without going through the last 25 posts,do we really need to know more than they signed him to a minor league contract? This is just another Miller/Obermueller/Grardner/fillintheblank more or less career minor leaguer signed in hopes they can catch llightning in a bottle for a season or part thereof.

Hot stove league stuff, I guess some are looking for something else to refresh other than the 1,853 and growing postings to the Miguel thread. Although this really is stretching it.
December 12, 200718 yr Waechter actually isn't a bad pick up for a minor league contract. At one point he led the league in leaving the game with a lead and getting a no decision. Although it was in A ball, he looked good at the end of last season with his rehab. He should do well in a pitcher friendly stadium and away from being in his home town and the distractions that go with that.
December 12, 200718 yr Phones ringing off the hooks at the Marlin ticket office and the internet is slow from online season ticket purchases. Oops, it's only Bronco Bob seeing if he can move from row 1 to the warning track. Bob, just kidding, I like you, really-eventually we will have that beer. I don't even like the warning track idea. How would my beer guy get to me??
December 13, 200718 yr I actually like Doug Waechter. Please keep discussion of sexual orientation away from this site...We don't ask and you dont tell!

If he can leave a game w/ a lead this year every time he goes out, we should be in good shape. Love our bullpen.
December 13, 200718 yr He will NOT be part of our bullpen. Look at the dominant pen. 1st Olsen 2nd Mitre 3rd A Miller 4th RVH 5th Nolasco CL : Gregg Lefty : Tank, Pinto Setup : Lindstrom, Kensing, J Miller, K-Mart Long relief : Gardner Maybe he could take K-mart' job, I think... but, It's useless.
December 13, 200718 yr Well i think that will about wrap up our offseason additions. Hell mgt. probably thinks were set now.
December 13, 200718 yr I have penciled him in as our number 2 starter i lol'd. and then i got sad because you're probably right. I lol'd a lot for this comment
December 13, 200718 yr I love when people gent bent out of shape by minor league deals. It's understandable considering anyone we sign to a minor league deal with major league experience will probably get called up in May. Also, that rotation Bret posted is freaking hilarious.
