That is good, I’m rooting for him.  But saying goodbye to Chavez, that’s harsh man.

Not really.

He was trash with the Angels and will likely end up signing with a contender who gives him an opportunity in the majors at some point in September.

Another new team for the most traded player in baseball. He probably never unpacks.

He had good numbers in ATL.

So I’m listening to yesterday’s game and it occurs to me that jc was pitching to get released. He brought over decent numbers and then he gets here and he sucks balls again. Could it have been his intention to go back to Atlanta?

For a minute I thought that you were talking about our old buddy, Cash Considerations.

With Gonsolin going out with the forearm strain(TJ coming right up), watch Chavez end up across town in the Dodgers bullpen.

That’s asinine

What I see here is a bunch of white guys brought up and a bunch of brown guys sent down.

I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say that we appreciate your wokeness.

2.11 to 7.59 era with the Angels.  1.23 to 1.78 whip with the Angels.  Yeah, that's "asinine".  We'll see within a week, going to back to Atlanta or another contender.

Too think that a pitcher, ESPECIALLY a pitcher with local ties to Southern California and who has pitched for this organization before, would be tanking just so he could get released, is asinine.

Chavez doesn’t have the “stuff” to even assume this thought, and your stats just prove the point.

Maybe, just maybe…..he just doesn’t have it anymore?  That’s a safer assumption.

Yeah... I'm at a loss, I haven't been able to watch him play this season, but his numbers since he switched jerseys just don't jibe.  Maybe I'm wrong but I would place a small wager that the guy is picked up and he somehow returns to 'form'.  It's not like our pitching staff has been our weak point this season.

so atlanta released a guy with a 2.11 era? that seems odd.

Another ex Angel in the playoffs. Good Luck Mr. Chavez

[79CAAman]

Chavez was included in the trade for Iglesias and Tucker Davidson.  As I mentioned, he brought over good numbers and then...

Damn... I figured it would happen in a couple of days to a week!!!  He's going to magically return to form and that pre-trade 2.11 ERA
