Well technically, long enough was like a month ago.

 

But better late than never, I guess.

Raul's a great dude, but he was hurting this team.

 

I wonder which aging vet they'll replace him with?

[Lou]

I miss him

[Sam Sanchez]

[jshep]

Next Up (Hopefully): David Freese

[Sherlock31]

But..but...but he is on a 3 games hitting streak!!!!!!!

[Spencer]

I feel bad. Love that guy, just not his play

[Richard]

Sucks that raul couldn't bring anything to the team. It might be time to call it a career.

[Splint7438]

Grant green seems like a fine replacement. Although I have a hunch Cron is going to get his ABs. Unless we sign Grady to an extension

[stormngt]

We are six back and getting close to July. When you within a couple of games you have the room to be patient and hope a player turns around. However being six games back we couldn't wait any longer. Good move although I would have done it three weeks ago. Now fix the bullpen and put pressure on Freese or he needs to be next.

This organization treats all these aging veterans like complete crap.

[JAHV76]

Now that they have an open roster spot will they fill it with a trade or will they bring up a minor league pitcher.

[Splint7438]

Johnny Ringo says it best

[YouthofToday]

I don't feel bad. At all.

I guess his PAs were not looking as good of late? Remarkable how long this club stood by him.

[Taylor]

I'm sure the A's or Rangers will sign up and he'll finish the season hitting .350 with 25 HR and a .900 OPS.

Nice

[The God of Runs]

Do you believe in miracles....... YES!!!

[martinpa25]

I hope this serves as a wakeup call for freese..he better get his shit together
