Angels acquire Rich Hill; Option Kohn to AAA

[Inside Pitch]

You're not a dummy!

 

Well, let's not go overboard.  Still a dummy, just not a big dummy...  

[EDinTUSTIN]

He pitched more like Benny Hill.

Lol

[EDinTUSTIN]

Also; Kohn sucks

That is certainly true, so does Rich Hill. Quite a debut today, showing why he never stuck in the majors.

Sosh will continue throwing out Rich Hill just so he can make an out and get an ERA that isn't absolutely hilarious

No doubt!    I have to say, though, that Sosh didn't look too pleased when he removed him in the second game. I'd say Hill has a fairly short shelf life.

He's already packed for his next adventure.

 

[Erstad Grit]

Maybe it has something to do with the bad team having a 2.92 bullpen ERA and better, younger, pitchers?

 

Or maybe he sucks. 

[m0nkey]

Record with Rich HIll? 2-0.   

 

Exactly, idiots

[bloodbrother]

I like that this guy can't throw strikes

Next week: Rich Hill DFA'd; Kohn called up

The PA guy at the stadium should just use his best Price is Right voice when announcing the reliever...   My guess is there will be another version of Hill/Wall/Herrera soon...

By the way, I don't know for sure but I'd say it's very likely the Angels did in fact get Hill for $1. When a player is traded for "cash considerations" that's generally what it means. Usually that doesn't get publicized because it's embarrassing for the player, but somehow it did with the Brad Mills thing.

It's basically a way for GMs to arrange for players to go to specific teams rather than simply releasing them and making them free agents.

We're already feeling buyers remorse. If the red sox won't give us a refund, maybe they'll at least give us some credit to the team store

that's interesting, thanks. i was unaware of the 1 dollar part.

[Lou]

Jeff, please let Arte know that I'll pay $2 to send him back.

Cash

[ABC]

fixed~

 

we get it. you think it's funny. 

[Sherlock31]

This deal is $1 too much. 

[Ohtaniland]

 

[tennischmp]

Did Arte write them a check?

[HaloRed16]

I don't know what to make of Kohn: live then dead, I guess. 

[Homebrewer]

Scott Downs cleared waivers and Atlanta doesn't want him in their minors...

So there is another one on the pile if Dipoto wants to keep the revolving door moving..
