August 6, 20169 yr Left-handed pitcher Hunter Cervenka acquired from Atlanta in exchange for minor leaguers INF Anfernee Seymour & LHP Michael Mader. I assume we option Ogando to make room?
August 6, 20169 yr I can't believe we gave up Mader. Just recently came across him in our system while looking through scores and looked like a nice prospect
August 6, 20169 yr Decent pick up if we didn't overpay.... they did overpay and it's only decent if they use him properly
August 6, 20169 yr You guys make a very big deal out of every prospect traded from our piece of shit system.
August 6, 20169 yr You guys make a very big deal out of every prospect traded from our piece of shit system. my issue is cervenka will get some lefties out then don will have 100% confidence in him and let him face some righties in a close game which = game over
August 6, 20169 yr You guys make a very big deal out of every prospect traded from our piece of shit system. Yeah, well you don't make a big deal out of every prospect traded from our peice of shit system. But seriously, look up Mader and tell me he's worth giving up for a lefty with a 6.1 BB/9. Not only that, but he will probably replace Ellington whose even better than him. The net loss is going to be comical
August 6, 20169 yr Lefties are 9 for 62 against him this year with 6 years of control. Giving up a mediocre prospect for him is fine as long as they use him properly.
August 6, 20169 yr Lefties are 9 for 62 against him this year with 6 years of control. Giving up a mediocre prospect for him is fine as long as they use him properly. Cervenka is still a mediocre player. 62 at bats doesn't make him Sean Doolittle
August 6, 20169 yr why are trades being made after the deadline? Players who pass through waivers unclaimed can be traded after the deadline.
August 6, 20169 yr Don used lefty specialists properly in LA. If anything, his issue with the pen is the "he's our guy" mentality where each guy has to pitch a certain inning. As for Mader, he's just a guy. Seems like some of you expect to get better without giving up any players. Look at what other contenders have given up this season for a chance to win.
August 6, 20169 yr my issue is cervenka will get some lefties out then don will have 100% confidence in him and let him face some righties in a close game which = game over But that's not an issue with cervenka that's a Mattingly issue therefore you actually have no issue with cervenka
August 6, 20169 yr Cervenka is still a mediocre player. 62 at bats doesn't make him Sean Doolittle Didn't say he was great. But he seems to me a legit MLB lefty reliever...which they don't have in the system...except for Dunn (maybe).
