for Connor Robertson
I don't get it...
Omar helped our bullpen so much, and then he does this? WTF?
$$$ thats why
Ouch this will hurt the bullpen really bad............ or not. He was good last year, but his career ERA is near 5, so I don't trust him.
Schoeneweis really is not that good... at all..Quote:

You absolutely cannot judge a lefty specialist by his ERA. Schoeneweis is a below average reliever, relatively old, and making money. Robertson is younger, and cheap. It's a salary dump, pure and simple. Plus, the Mets have a better lefty in Feliciano.
1) WTF is a lefty specialist?Quote:

A generic, nothing special reliever.Quote:

Then why did we trade Scotty Schoenweis for him?Quote:

This is because they throw so few innings, that the sample size is simply to small. Connor Robertson is a younger, cheaper reliever then Schoweinsis who is also better at this stage.Quote:
