What are they thinking? Antonio Valentin? A couple of minor leaguers? This is not the offseason that the Surfers need. Last I checked, they lost a lot of relievers to free agency.

Let's check that depth chart...hmmm...there's 4 relievers there! I know it's trendy these days in the BBA to do 6 man rotations or 4 man rotations or whatever the kids are doing these days. But seriously, they need more relievers.

Rob Fuller looked pretty good! Jose Gutierrez maybe? What about Bob Sanderson? Oh, let him go to your division rival? Good plan, Lane! There's a reason they don't call you The Genius.

The Actual Genius is signing worthwhile relievers like Louis Hall.

James Braddock, Ricardo Valera. What is The Plan?

What's that, you say? Oh yeah, there is no Plan! That's Nashville's thing!

I'm already on the fence about renewing my season tickets after the disaster of a season we just finished.

And don't even mention the name Felipe Murillo to me...

The timeliness and quick turn on this makes me laugh my ass off. Well done Stephen.
