Is Marty being serious about Bill James or is he mocking? I honestly can't tell.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

Aw geez. Martinez doubles. Here we go.

Good news for tomorrow!
per CT Rosecrans "Butcher just got a text message from Aaron Harang, reassuring him that he is indeed in Cleveland. Which means he's pitching tomorrow."

Talking about closers, what's-his-face says I don't care what Bill James says, I think a closer is most important, all the great teams have one, and Marty responds boy Bill James is a smart guy, along with Billy Beane out in Oakland. Those two and Tony LaRussa were in the room with Abner Doubleday when he invented the game. And Sandy Alderson was knocking on the door but they wouldn't let him in.
Really couldn't tell if he was serious or mocking.
