Re: GDT : Cardinals @ Athletics (5/12) ~ 8:40pm CDT
The fact that Saggesse and Scott are still up here and Torres is not tells me they aren't serious about winning.
And either Bloom isn't on the ball completely.
Or he is letting Oli have to much influence over his decisions.
I almost never get critical about personnel but this makes ZERO sense.
You have a .400 OBP guy and 40 games into the season you're still playing two sure outs??
If Torres gets on twice per game. That's another. 3 to .5 runs scored per game over the whole season versus shaw r currently get out of the Scott everyday spot.
In a full season that's potentially 50 more runs scored.
No way Torres defense is that bad to off set that.
They could easily make the wild card with this team.
On top of that Torres is on the 40 man roster.

Saggese sucks (donkey). Dude might as well go to the playe empty-handed. Makes Tom Lawless look like a power hitter.
