Not a bad idea, ill take it.
I wonder what its going to take to make some of you happy though, lol 

[Angel Oracle]

Is he ready to pitch in AAA at the start of the season?   If so, why not?    Never know what can happen.

Well, he spent last season in AAA and had a 6.59 ERA.

He's going to be 32 this year and was unemployed yesterday.

Woo fucking Hoo. 

 

And the year before that was our winningest starter with a 4.15 before injury so...  i mean cherry pick stats all day long but why shit on the deal?  its nothing, minor league with invite.  if healthy again could make rotation, if not nothing lost.

Signed on minor league deal so nothing lost. I still remember Rich Hill bounced around for years. Start him at double A Salt Lake PCL brutal on pitchers.

The quality is questionable, but this is the absolute deepest group of MLB-capable SPs Eppler has assembled so far. I remember it being said the SP depth should be 8 or 10 deep...we’re currently at like  14 guys who have started enough games in the bigs to be considered as rotation depth. 

Heaney, Ohtani, Teheran, Bundy, Canning, Sandoval, Andriese, Pena, Suarez, Barria, Peters, Gohara, Ramirez, Thompson...

Reclaimed clean peanut?

 

Re-cleaned peanut?

 

Who knows?

FWIW....this tidbit on JC.

 

Ramirez has perhaps shown a bit of a spark in Mexican winter ball, where he carries a 3.48 ERA with 29 strikeouts and eight walks over 41 1/3 innings.

Makes two of us... youre literally going out of your way to shit on a likely meaningless deal for no apparent reason other than i dont hate it.  Changes nothing, laugh away.

Not a glowing endorsement

His K rate is so bad

This is a stellar point. it should quell the conversation.

if only he had announced that he was about to make a stellar point.  therefore, it doesn't count.  

[Erstad Grit]

This must be that touchdown Eppler talked about a few years ago

Yep, always has been.  I'm surprised he's even done as "well" (I'm definitely using that word lightly) as he has thus far.

Congrats to @jsnpritchett for this significant victory over @mymerlincat

[ELEVEN]

Season over

[notherhalo]

Ace potential there.
