    The last Abreu AB is the reason why Dubie so valuable coming off the bench. Could have PH for Abreu there. But Espada should have Caratini PH for Abreu in that situation. This team is a ****ing mess.

    Not in April.

    Doobie more valuable as a utility player that plays basically full time

    Cute story you’ve confabulated.

    With as chatty as Brown is, won’t take much to coax this mythical arrangement out of him.

    All these GM’s have made dumb moves at one point. I’m blaming Brown both for the signing and the lack of action at the moment.

    He was hired because he has the reputation as the best scout in baseball and the best scouting director.

    His first class so far looks really good but it is early.

    But Click still gets credit for him and the extension since that was already on the agenda prior to his departure?

    Just making sure I’m playing the bbs credit/blame game correct for today…

    Brown did not sign Abreu, Nick. You recall that, right?
    The lack of action of Abreu has to be related to the $40 million he is still owed, right?

    Bregman with another walk. Getting that eye back preparatory to a power surge. I believe that. I do.
