Is this supposed to make us feel better?

We need to send these youngsters back to AAA and just sign on some warm bodies to get us through this season. We are doing more harm than good here I imagine.

Last off season was so bad it could kill your career. We'll see how it plays out.

Nelvin?

This season summed up.

If we can win the next 20, I'm confident we'd have a shot at the 2nd wild card spot.

Don't they always list the "starter" days ahead of the games even when we have an opener? I bet the day of the game it's updated to show an opener, if we use them.

It's hard to do much of anything when you don't have good openers, starters, or closers.

The Angels have taken this away from me.

The only question now is if it will be a single or double amputation.

Here's some highlights (or low lights) of Billy's transactions. I didn't include any new extensions in here since the list I was going through didn't include them. I'm sure I also missed some: 2015 Traded Erick Aybar, Chris Ellis, Sean Newcomb and cash for Jose Briceno and Andrelton Simmons Signed Craig Gentry, Cliff Pennington, Geovany Soto, Daniel Nava Traded Yunel Escobar for Michael Bradley and Trevor Gott 2016 Traded Adam McCreery for Jhoulys Chacin Signed Tim Lincecum Traded Austin Adams and Kyle McGowin for Danny Espinosa Drafted Matt Thaiss Selected JC Ramirez off waivers Traded Joe Smith for Jesus Castillo Traded Alan Busenitz and Hector Santiago for Alex Meyer, Ricky Nolasco and cash Selected Brett Oberholtzer off waivers Signed Andrew Bailey Selected Blake Parkers and Kirby Yates off waivers Signed Jesse Chavez Traded Jett Bandy for Drew Gagnon and Martin Maldonado Traded Victor Alcantara for Cameron Maybin Signed Ben Revere 2017 Signed Luis Valbuena, Eric Young Jr, Bud Norris, Dustin Ackley, and Yusmeiro Petit Traded cash for Parker Bridwell Traded cash for Juan Graterol Signed Doug Fister, Michael Bourn, Cesar Puello Drafted Griffin Canning Selected Noe Ramirez off Waivers Signed Fernando Salas Traded Tony Sanchez for Brandon Phillips Traded Grayson Long for Justin Upton Traded PTBNL for Felix Pena Signed Shohei Ohtani Signed Zack Cozart Traded Wilkel Hernandez and Troy Montgomery for Ian Kinsler 2018 Signed Eric Young Jr again Signed Rene Rivera Traded CJ Cron for Luis Rengifo Signed Chris Carter and Chris Young Signed Taylor Cole Signed Ben Revere again Traded Carlos Perez for Ryan Schimpf Traded cash for Akeel Morris Traded cash for Miguel Almonte Selected Oliver Drake off waivers Selected Hansel Robles off waivers Traded Martin Maldonado for Patrick Sandoval Traded Ian Kinsler for Ty Buttrey and Williams Jerez Purchased Odrisamer Despaigne Signed Peter Bourjos and Dustin Garneau Traded Tyler Stevens for Dillon Peters Traded Conor Lillis-White for Tommy La Stella Signed Justin Bour, Trevor Cahill, Matt Harvey, Jonathan Lucroy 2019 Signed Cody Allen Signed Luke Bard Traded Williams Jerez for Chris Stratton Selected Brian Goodwin off waivers

Most excited for the season to end. ?

If he lays a goose egg again this off-season then it's time to move on.

Ouch on the torn ACL. I suspect Cannings elbow will get worse over the next few days. Elbow inflammation to elbow strain to TJS.

Anyone out there that's been waived recently that could eat some innings?

Wake me when this is over.

I'm not sure how much more of this team I can handle. We have a horrible combination of bad luck and extreme suckage. It's not helping my stress levels!

I think around here some people get so caught up in things they forget what our end goal is, to win the World Series. I wonder if people would have been good with trading Adell and Marsh for someone if we ended up winning a world series because of it? I honestly think some people would still say no, it was a bad deal. Not saying this was possible this year, but in general.

This year is a goner. He will never say that but we all know it. So he wasn't going to do something to help us this year while hurting future years. I'm fine with how it worked out.

I still think we will deal one of our top 10 guys (+others) for a middle of the rotation starter. I imagine no matter what prospect we give up this board will think we overpaid.

We might just get no hit.

Hopefully that was the low point. We still have a few more games against the leagues worst team, including one against a pitcher with a 14.40 ERA today.

At least they have a starting pitcher with a 14.40 ERA going today.

Yep. I think he's the one we'd target. The younger guys would need us to give up more so Caleb Smith would be logical.

I really think we are going to trade for one of the Marlins pitchers.
