    Old Coasters line : He's gonna get caught, just you wait and see, why's everybody always picking on me. Playing the card.

    I don't know about anyone else but I felt with Dellin and Miller Chapman was not needed and will wind up a head case. The Yankees need to trade this guy and get something good in return.

    ...the thing that really gets me about the Chapman deal is that not only did the Yanx send the wrong message by acquiring him when they did, but also the fact that he was virtually guaranteed to be irrelevant this year.

    ...I mean what damn good does a 5-6 month rental on a relief pitcher do for a team that won't be in the PS anyway?...this just in, Cashman is a horrible GM>

    ^^^Apparently this clown forgets that Barry Bonds was once walked 232 times in one season including 120 times intentionally.

    ^^^and like the article pointed out, if the guys who are hitting behind Harper actually produced he wouldn't be whining about Harper getting walked so often.
