Hey Kent Merker hows it goin
I don't mind the three catchers since Valentin is the #1 LH PH.
School's out. What did you expect?
Do you mean "bowel movement?"

You want to spend 4.25 million per year for 4 years on a middle relief pitcher? Finding a good middle reliever is too much of a crap shoot to do that.
You and the potty humor....geez.
Oh wait....that's one of the reasons I think you are not so bad.
They may be expensive, but it doesn't mean you should spend less on ancient pitchers. It doesn't work that way. There's no value in "bad."

I don't know if I would call Stanton "bad". He's average, and average is an upgrade over what we had last year.
I mind that he's the #1 LH PH.
I'm for making that Scott Hatteberg's job.
I'm not a system player. I am a system.
I agree.
I am praying Votto takes his job.
Another good point--this team's bench sucks.

The bullpen had its share of "average" last year. Why not "good" for once?

All you need for a bullpen is alot of "average" and a good closer. Problem is we don't haev a good closer.
You need lots of good. Or at least two very good pitchers in the pen to contend.

You can patch a bullpen together if you have a good closer.
See: the Cardinals in the 2006 playoffs.
