Why the Brebbia hate? He was an effective reliever.
I didn't rate him. Perhaps you should direct your query to the panel.

You think the Pirates did a good thing by not signing him, or is this another inside joke?

Didn't say I hated him. Just didn't know that much about him

It is not an inside joke. If Cherington does not acquire a player, Doc will say it is good. If Cherington dumps a player, Doc will say it is good. If Cherington acquires a player, Doc will say it is good. If Cherington does absolutely nothing the entire off season, Doc will say it is good. According to Doc, Cherington can do no wrong.

To Cherington - If at first you don't succeed, try something else.
If the numbers you award teams were equivalent to the grades we all received in school (5=A, 4=B, etc), the Giants GM would have a report card he'd be hiding from his mom and dad. Yet he's looking like a high Honor Roll student in your poll. And you spend your time ripping Cherington. Some Pirates fan you are.
