The Departed

<t>I think the Alvarez debate is suffering from black-or-white-itis. He's neither a great player, nor a poor one. Having to deal with watching Boras do his magic left a bad taste in a lot of fans' mouths, including mine. But looking back at his career numbers so far, they're not remarkable in either...

The Departed

<r>Well this is strange. Sean Burnett tried to tear his UCL so he could get another Tommy John surgery.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/sean-burnett-tried-to-break-ucl-is-trying-now-to-blaze-trail/"><LINK_TEXT text="http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/sean-bur ... aze-trai...

Andrew McCutchen in Players Tribune

After living through the Barry Bonds era, it's hard to express how wonderful it is that the face of the franchise is someone you can respect and love. I know the finances are tough, but in my heart I want more than anything for him to be our Cal Ripken.

Rule 5.

<r>Here's an article on him from last year. Fairly hot prospect sidelined by an injury. His numbers look OK, but he's certainly not young. He's not a "hide him on the roster" Rule 5 pickup, he's either major league ready or never will be.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.pinstripealley.co...

I don't think there's anything in the rules about flying or catching the ball with your bill, I like it! ;D

The Bucs Trade You Remember Most

Aramis Ramirez. That next year or so was the only time in my adult life when I didn't closely follow the Pirates. I was so bummed by that trade that I lost hope. But I was back soon enough! I'm just a masochist at heart.

Cutch Trade Idea

I'm not going to like this, am I? What do all the people (like me) who have a pet named McCutchen do? OK it's not a pet, it's a duck who swims in the pond behind our house, but the point stands! :-[
