Shortstop is WAY harder than catching.

i'm guessing you're younger than 25. am i close?

[bloodbrother]

Can't wait until the end of July when the Angels have 2 better relievers in the pen and we no longer have to see Bedrosian or Jim Johnson anymore

It really does speak volumes on our minor league relief pitching depth.

Pitchers’ best friend.

I keep telling myself they are throwing him out there as a sacrifice to the Tommy John surgery gods.   It's a coping mechanism.  Also booze.

As long as I can remember.

Not a big fan of your ideas, but I do love your enthusiasm

He could throw 120 innings this year and be perfectly fine. Yet Parker will throw a 6 pitch 1-2-3 inning then go on the DL with forearm tightness.

[Waybackman]

I would rather have Kole with his bad offense and great defense than watch Young at the plate.

I'm waiting to see what he says when you ask him if he's an animal, vegetable, or mineral...

My liver couldn't handle 120 innings of Bedrosian.

[eligrba4ever]

Oliver Drake? He's new.

Who is this redneck?

Cozart has the Angels forearm tightness disease also. 

[Docwaukee]

bad pitch selection by Maldo.  

[Waybackman]

What’s the point of even trying out a guy with 7+ .era. There’s enough junk in our bullpen already.

[Ohtaniland]

This dude will be baling hay by morning.

You just did. I'm not in MS-13 so I'm not an animal. I like to exercise so I'm not a vegetable. I'm not dumb as a rock, so I'm not a mineral. So who am I? Don't know how to answer that.

I think Tank has 18 more questions to ask....  He will find out for you.   At worst he will post a Kate Upton pic and everyone leaves happy.

It pains me, but I agree with you

[bloodbrother]

Oliver Drake is the hero the bullpen deserves, but not the one it needs

[eligrba4ever]

Ollie is a 2008 43rd rounder out of Navy. Nickname Bucko.
