This is starting to feel high

Zac Kristofak also assigned to Salt Lake

not expecting them to win this year so i would look at a modest multi-year contract, maybe 3 years for bauer. financially, he's also dirt cheap right now. he also has #1 starter stuff. we need that.

who do you have your eye on?

I mean I’m not really interested in adding to this team, I said before my biggest gripe with the offseason was that we didn’t sell off the current roster.  But if we have to make an external addition to the rotation for whatever reason I’m signing Clevinger before Bauer without question 

We had one.  Arte didn’t think he was worth keeping around

after watching sandoval pitch yesterday and assume the role of our #1 pitcher, i think the bauer discussion is a bit more worthwhile.

Not only are there other vets out there if we think we need to add one to the rotation, but the team isn’t trying to win this year so all he would do is take the place of someone who might contribute to our future

I guess we’re all just better people than you.  

Maybe.  Hopefully for the sake of your effort Bauer thinks so at least.  I mean I myself if I saw a bunch of grown men who didn’t know me emotionally expressing how sorry they felt that I was dealing with the consequences of my own actions for over a year, I would question whether or not they were homosexual.  But maybe Bauer finds this touching

Because shit like this could happen to anyone.  Even us here.  Well probably not you.

Bad shit indeed happens to everyone, that’s why I don’t have any reason to emotionally express my sympathy on the internet for this individual in particular

Why is it so hard for people to just accept that teams don’t want to sign him and move on?

can someone explain why kochanowicz would be demoted to AA instead of staying at AAA? on it's face, this doesn't sound like a good thing for him. 

Salt Lake is not a good place for our pitchers to develop and Kochanowicz hasn’t even put up a great season in AA before.  It’s the right place to start him IMO.

I’d be fine with the pitchers we’re developing more or less skipping AAA and having Salt Lake’s pitching staff mainly just being MLB caliber vet depth

Grading anyone or anything through one game is stupid as shit, though that's par for the course with you.  Phil isn't coming back so if you're going to be terminally asshurt about the managerial change all season the only thing you're going to accomplish is making an ass of yourself
