Turner DFA, Flynn Up

Everyone hates him because he hasn't had more than a minute to succeed at the major league level.

 

It's more because his stuff is terrible. He was also pretty lousy in AAA this season where he had far more than a minute to try to succeed.

 

 

Anyway...Spike? You are needed for this one.

Fuck, never seen it. I suck.

 

Jesus Fucking Christ.... What's wrong with you? You watch atleast 10 seasons of shitty Marlins baseball but not the dad from Malcom in the Middle selling meth?

He did take a big step back this season in NO, no doubt. If he establishes a major league career, not much doubt at this point it will be in relief, maybe in a LOOGY role. Something we need, actually.

I feel like I dropped the ball on this one. Wild Card...c'mon. You were doing marginally better.

 

All I said was everyone hates Flynn because he has been terrible in the majors. That's entirely accurate. It's also true he hasn't gotten much of a chance, either. As I mentioned above, I agree that he has taken a step back this year and it's put his future into question.

 

We actually need a LOOGY and Flynn could eventually be that guy. He gives lefties a shitty look with that height and all those knees and elbows coming at them, could be his niche eventually. He has pretty good K/BB numbers against lefties, and even a pretty decent opp BA considering how high his opp BABIP is.

There's no such thing as "needing a LOOGY." It's the most overrated role in baseball.

Idk, it used to feel pretty good when Randy Choate came in the game against anyone left handed.

 

When Jennings or Dunn come in against a lefty I do 5 Hail Mary's. Not really, but I should.

Saying that "everyone hates him because he never got a chance to succeed" sounds awfully contradictory to you basically admitting that his future is as a LOOGY. If you see him as being a LOOGY, that means that there are plenty of things for people here to dislike about him.

 

His numbers against LHB in AAA this season aren't even good enough to project him as a solid LOOGY. I don't see him ever making it as a reliever considering how poor his stuff his. His frame isn't enough to compensate for that.

You are the absolute KING of trying to twist words. The next time you "QUOTE" somebody, quote them, accurately. It's why we have the quote feature. Don't put a sentence like the one I bolded into quotations and pass it off as something that somebody said when they never did. It's easy to argue against nobody, because nobody said that.
