    I'd wait on forsythe.

    I don't like the idea of him coming back at Coors. Just doesn't sit right with me. I'm not doctor but his hammy there... idk.

    They also dealt franchise fixture/fan fave Matt Kemp in part to clear the way for Joc, absolutely seen as a bold move at the time.
    But sometimes the bold move is the non-move.
    The NOT trading Urias or Seager for flavor of the year vet superstar types.
    Not trading Cody Bellinger for Chris Sale.
    And on and so forth.

    Six or so other bums got the same September call up. What's your point? You misremembered what happened in September 2015. No huge deal.

    i don't understand the idea of trying to rush logan and agon back
    neither is any good to us unless they're fully recovered/healed
    and it's not like the team is struggling without either one
    the nerds/roberts need to take that shit down a notch imo

    I definitely agree with AGon. With Logan it depends - he was basically on his way back but had hamstring issues, and it depends if they have a major concern about the hamstring or if they were just being extra cautious because they could be. We definitely don't want it to linger but he might be able to come back in a 1B platoon / PH role and still watch the hamstring. The less SVS the better.

    yeah but hamstrings are dicey and can linger
    would rather him take (say) 2 months to be right than come back too soon and re-aggravate it

    I don't like to see LAD's former guys struggle, the specs mostly
    The league catches up tho
    Hopefully Cotton can turn it around

    Cincy fans getting shit for their constant " woooo "
    Shit is better than SFG fans with those cell phone lights
    I don't really have a problem with the wooo..maybe because I love some fuckin Ric Flair? Lol
    That's absolutely my era of wraslin, so I'm good with it.
    I would say that if you want the wooing to stop, kick the Reds' ass and send the fans to the exits

    LOL, Kenta Maeda came down with a case of hamstring tightness and has been placed on the DL right at a time that the club needed to activate Ryu for tonights game.... This FO is gonna get themselves in trouble.

    I'm not rooting against the guy but when Cotton had one good game you had Pedro Martinez saying he reminded him of himself, and had a forbes.com writer saying Cotton might be the next Pedro and you had many other articles about the guy. Now, there's just silence.

    Point is you are stupidly criticizing the FO for calling up top prospects because of the reason they did..

    Pedro was on some " LAD should've kept me too " shit.
    Ultimately, Cotton had a nice 4 or 5 start run last season.
    Obviously not enough to say he might be the next Pedro, nor was it enough to have guys at DSP fussing over his departure, which happened as well.
    Funny enough, I've seen it both ways..guys complaining about LAD giving up Cotton in the trade because he was pitching well, and then also the same guys complaining that opposing teams would stop trading with LAD because such and such wasn't performing well. Lol
    Damned if you do, damned if you don't if you're the LAD FO
