In this scenario, they are still the Cardinals and everything else is the same (last 30 years of performance and all the acquisitions they’ve made so far)? Or are they the Cardinals but this is their only signing so far and they’ve been irrelevant for the last 30 years and that’s part of how we view this single transaction for them?

I once had a dog that could sniff 30 years of historical evidence. I soon realized he was just sniffing my underwear.
Signed Larry City Beer.

Good move signing Pagan. He's definitely an upgrade from Law.

I don't think he definitely is, but at least they can say they spent some money - just like last year with Wil Myers and the year before with Mike Minor.

Sean Buckley has resigned from the Reds

YEa, I Didn't realize we had a whole new thread.
The concerns that you had in the other thread are valid.
I think I lowered my expectations enough to just be thankful that he's a legit reliever that might have a good year (as opposed to dumpster diving).
It's a risk, but I think it's a reasonable risk. I would have liked someone better, but I'm happy the Reds did anything.
I guess that's what Phil wants :lol:

Somebody told me not to be concerned about this because hamstring injuries usually only have guys out for a week or less.

Someone said use common sense and realize his main source of income and team is the Reds. They want to look at it because of that and It sounds like it’s nothing and want him to sit out the winter league as a precaution.

I think you were saying it could be career threatening? Is that correct?

I was saying you never know with hamstring injuries and used the extreme example of what happened to Griffey as evidence. Nobody thought his career was altered when he tore his hammy in late 2000 or 2001 or whenever it was.
This injury is a concern until it isn't. Sounds like it still is for now.

You should probably get rid of those.
