Angels sign Fuentes

[The Other 15]

I haven't seen so much paranoia over Ceda since they left Andy Sisco unprotected. That proved disastrous.

 

I think people are more upset that we used one of our top pitching prospects/trading pieces in Ceda, not that they're afraid he's going to be great.

 

But if you can't afford Wood, why in the world would you pay Fuentes?

 

Because Fuentes isn't really an injury risk?

Why would the Cubs want Fuentes when they didn't want Wood? Your answer is health? Having a young, lights out closer that costs next to nothing on their roster had nothing to do with their decision?

We have a young, lights out reliever, and we had him last year also. He's not replacing Wood in terms of value. We're still losing a dominant reliever no matter where Marmol pitches. Marmol is on the team either way. He doesn't replace Wood, he's just going to be pitching the 9th instead of the 8th.

 

That's beside the point anyways, and you're twisting up the conversation and making it into things that we're not even saying. I don't really understand what you're trying to do, other than maybe start problems with me again because you don't like.

 

You asked why somebody might not want to give a multi-year deal to Wood but might want to for Fuentes. The reason is pretty obvious. Nobody ever said anything what Hendry is thinknig. We're talking about what we would do. That's where this all started. The guy wondered why we're paying 4-5 mil for Gregg when Fuentes would have costed only a little bit more this year, and would have only demande a short term contract.

 

He understands why Hendry did it, he just doesn't agree with it.

Thank God you're here to interpret. I see now. Others can agree or disagree with a decision made by a GM, but I shouldn't disagree with them? Agree to not disagree policy? Got it.

 

Stop your whining francismorgan. Weather I like you or not, has nothing to do with anything discussed here.

The thing is, you weren't just disagreeing with his idea. You came in here with an attitude and basically acted like he was an idiot for not understanding why Hendry didn't re-sign Wood, and then tried to tell us how he didn't want to pay that much for a reliever. We understand.

We understand? Are you having a team meeting in your head? Try to tell the guy that thinks he needs to lecture people on message board decorum to shut the hell up. You don't like the way I post, how's this for a crazy idea? Don't respond. Just ignore me.
