    Yordan is a pretty good hitter, but not sure he was worth Josh Fields. Time will tell.

    Yordan to KC "You have to work to get that run across... I just swing one time"

    Curse of the Bamfieldso

    Seriously though. That one trade may have given us 2 WS and 4 trips total and cost the Dodgers a dynasty.

    Man Witt has some quick hands to clear and tomahawk that pitch.

    Maybe, hear me out, we don't let Neris pitch to Witt ever again?

    Why would you throw the same pitch that many times in a row against one of the best hitters in baseball? Even if you want to eventually get him out there, you’ve got to at least change his eye level and throw one in the dirt.

    Reporter to Witt, "Would you ever consider a trade to play in Texas?"

    Witt, "Only if I can hit against Neris every time"
