Merged: Cut/Don't you think its time to clear out the old?? White, Hammond, McCracken

McCracken--- Why is he on this team? Name me one good thing he has done. He refuses to slide, he swings at the first pitch every time, even when its the 12th inning or hes batting 1st, and he can't catch a ball.

Hammond, White, Weathers--- They all suck. They need to go retire, give up baseball. White and Weathers, it looks like they have a heart attack after they go from the bullpen to the mound. It looks like Weathers is about to keel over, he always is panting and sweating.. What a joke.

This bullpen sucks. The only good person is Coffey.

Re: Cut

I'm praying that when Milton and Ross come off the DL they say goodbye to White and McCracken. It just doesn't make sense that they would do anything else.

Uh, oh-- the old "door" reference when someone is upset with the team's performance. He didn't say he's not a fan. Just calling for action.

Re: Cut

There are a lot of candidates to be removed from the team.

He sucks less than Tony Womack?

Don't you think its time to clear out the old?? Re: White, Hammond, McCracken

I think its time .. McCracken is batting like .200 .. White and Hammond completely suck and have not been able to keep games even their past two outings ... jeez. Time for Krivsky to DFA these guys and see what we can get out of guys like Hall, Burns, Michalak (he's not young but he deserves it), and Denoforia in the OF for McCracken.

The answer is yes but you have to have something to replace them with and decide who that is.

Re: Don't you think its time to clear out the old?? Re: White, Hammond, McCracken

I would bring up Deno(all teams need depth, with Griffey's injury history, that may lead to playing time, stop worrying about his playing time on the level) Shafer(my gamble selection, if he isn't ready, Merker can replace him), another lefty(Hammond is finished).

Getting rid of White and Hammond are another 1.5 mill in sunk costs(along with Womacks mill 2.5 million already, Cast must be cracking up, ahahahahah

Re: Don't you think its time to clear out the old?? Re: White, Hammond, McCracken

This teams main problem is a totally inadequate bullpen. You can see that Narron only trusts two pitchers, Coffey and Weathers. After that any selection is nothing but a roll of the dice.
