Everyone has seen more than enough of this over-extended sandlot walk-on camp, obvious by the turnstyles. It’s well past time to replant the lame farmhands and go back to business, hiring real ballplayers for the second-most-trophied franchise in the history of MLB, previously a fixture among baseball’s annual attendance leaders.
Quit the talent purge. Stop bottom-feeding. Keep Gray, Arenado, Contreras, Donovan, Winn, Burleson, Herrera, Romero, Liberatore and McGreevy. Dump Mikolas, Pallante, Gorman and Walker. Farm out proven AA batters Nootbar, Scott, Saggese, Fermin, Pages, Pozo, Church and Crooks. Hire outfielders who can hit their weight and pitchers who don’t breed gophers like bunnies. Then give us a call. Otherwise enjoy the spacious empty seats for fourth of five.
.207 … .214 … .216 … enough of the damned tryouts!

Why on Earth would you want to keep Arenado? What possible purpose can he serve other than blocking the opportunity for a younger player?Boiler Bird wrote: ↑27 Sep 2025 12:08 pm Everyone has seen more than enough of this over-extended sandlot walk-on camp, obvious by the turnstyles.
