lol. So now we are going to get a complaint because they DIDN”T burn an option year on Carpenter.

I’m pretty sure people saw Carpenter’s “stuff” in AA ball so not sure about the claim that no one’s ever seen his stuff…

its amazing to me that the FO will worry about an option year on carpenter vs trying to win a division. This is getting me more and more incensed the more i think about it. The short-sightedness is amazing. I’m not saying Carpenter is say for example Samardzjian (sp) but at this point the ML club needs every available arm and he’s gotta be better than Rudy, and possibly even Condrey considering no one’s ever seen his stuff. Amazing the stupidity

That makes more sense. So I guess we won’t be seeing Drew come back up until at least September 12.

I’ve seen 20 different web sites talk about options and none of them mention that. Thats good stuff. Thanks.

That’s on page 67 of the CBA.

Article XIX, Part E.

I’ve seen that issue before for a couple other players.
