He would have been the perfect guy to move over to the pen.

Yeah, his arm would have blown up the first time they tried to pitch him on back to back days
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Then Harden wouldn't be with the team this year.

Who gives a shit if Lou is frustrated? This teams is built like shit and he's the reason why. Fuck him, fire him. Now.

I think this will work out wonderfully with the new Soriano/Castro middle infield.

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] I was in favor of firing Lou in the offseason, he managed like a crazy old man last year. Scary thing is, I still think he might even be back next year too.

doesn't this totally fuck with a pitchers mentality too?
At least we're doing it with he most stable of the bunch...
Z to the Pen - Fella - 04-21-2010
I still think this will be temporary, soon as Silva or Gorz gets rocked a time or two and one of these pen guys settles down a bit he will be moved back. I don't think Z or the higher-ups will allow this to last.

Well, Lily will be starting Saturday. This is not Lou being frustrated, this is making room for Lily. If Gorz goes to the pen, one of the lefties has to go down. Of the right handers, I think Z is a solid choice.

Then the team will have to wait till Z gets his arm back to being capable of pitching 6 innings.

Yep. We'll have to find a way to stretch him out again.

Is there really any doubt that he's packing a beast?

Been away for a couple of days and I come back to this!!! I thought it was a joke until I pulled up MLB.com. Wow.

If Gorzelany sucks? They'll move Z back
If Silva sucks? They'll move Z back
If Z sucks? They'll move Z back
If a rookie finally steps up in the pen? They'll move Z back.
If they trade for a good middle reliever? They'll move Z back.
Relax. This is neither binding nor permanent. The only way it lasts is if EVERYTHING goes right. And then, who fucking cares?

Thats about where I am too. I expect him to be back in the rotation by June.

Why not try those guys there first then? That's what really does not make sense to me.
