Hampson

Post by OregonRedbird »

Why? Versatile mediocrity? Enough please. He’s a career underperformer and the league knows it. Is there not a better option in our system? Victor sits for him while Fedde offers another butt-ugly outing. What a surprise.

He’s Moe’s kinda guy. Mediocre to bad, cheap, bad, cheap and malleable because he’s mediocre, bad and cheap.

What is pathetic is that this proud franchise continually picks up junk like this. MO needs to be gone and hopefully the minors will produce some players. But it will be a season or two ... We have no really good OFers on the big league club. We are watching a team with two really good ones.....

You just knew Moe couldn’t hang ’em up without doing something stupid and cheap like Hampie. The smartest guy in the room is a complete doosher.

MO got lazy and the owner got cheap. This is the result.

It’s also time to accept the inconvenient and ugly reality that Noot is overrated and may always flirt with the Mendoza line.

100% right that he’s a Mo guy
If you’re someone who can poorly/average play 3-4 positions and hit .180 you’re his man

He’d have killed to sign Sean Rodriguez back in the day

He is on the team because he is disposable. Doesnt matter when they eventually DFA or waiver him. Nothing lost.

Absolutely zero reason for Hampson to be on this team. I would rather see any of the minor league outfielders here than Hampson and they would be just as cheap. A journeyman like Hampson on this team just doesn’t make sense. What is it that he provides?

What message does it send to an Antico or a Koeperniak when you keep bringing in a Siani or Hampson.? They are being told you have no future with us.

Misses a completely simple play to let a run score. Of course the bases would be loaded and Fedde would give up the run anyway. Stop playing these level B guys and bring up some of the Triple A guys. Can't be worse than this.

Makes absolutely no sense. Promote from your own pool like Church or Antico.
