I realize this is petty and I should be a better person and fan than this, but, as irrational as I know it is, I simply cannot forgive Dempster for the game1 performance against the Dodgers in the playoffs. No, it wasn't entirely his fault. Yes the team didn't score much for him and yes I do like him as a ballplayer. However, the team needed a big time performance in that game from him. To come out so small, so nervous, so wild.....after a season of so much hope. I simply can't look past that. I know the issue is entirely mine and I may be alone. To me, the guy is a #3 at best. So you can't separate your irrational feelings that you are aware are irrational from your evaluation of him as a baseball player? That's some tasty meatballin. You're fooling yourself if you think nets anything more than a couple fringe prospects at the deadline. Uh...where did I say anything having to do with anything like that? HE CAN READ BETWEEN THE LINES.
