    yeah, any ray of light we had just 7 days ago has gone bye-bye with dropping 3 out of 4 to the Brewers and a three game sweep by the Phils. This is now a dumpster fire

      The Brewer series was a brutal display of baseball.
      I'm just here for the baseball.

            Yep, really.

            Still without a no-no

                Mets have been around 7 years longer, and don't have a true no-no either - Johan Santana allowed a double that was called foul, and they were still working on a replay challenge system so it's technically in the books. I have a funny feeling the Mets might get a real one or two in the next 5 years, though

                  Travis Jankowski called up. Go Stony Brook!

                    Preller said he'd start. Melvin must have other ideas :P

                    BTW the PTBNL is rumored to be on the rangers 40 man roster and ML ready...Leonys Martin? Profar?

                      I would wager that there's no chance that they get a player of that caliber for what amounts to a 4th OFer. Both guys still have ceilings too high to be included in a small deal like this.

                        Agree. I was thinking Chi Chi - I just can't see his stuff playing in Texas long term. Ryan Rua could be another. Or maybe Kyle Blanks is going to find housing in the San Diego area again...

                        • Jankowski called up. Could be a good NL-only speed option rest of the way, sounds like he's going to get the opportunities...

                                So, yeah, some random 27 year old middle reliever.
                                That's a far cry from Profar or Martin -- or even Chi Chi. So basically all the Padres got was out of Venable's last two months under contract, or about $1m.
