My son just walks away from games like this. I should learn to do the same.

As great as the last two comebacks against the Twinkies were, you can't give up 7 in the first, keep your starter in and expect to win. Tanaka was crap tonight. Tomorrow's another day.

But they have an issue with the rotation that has been obscured by the power of the offense. Unfortunately there are very few legitimate difference makers available. It may not prevent us from making the playoffs but it is an issue.

I think if they can't land Stroman they might pass on the next level of starter and surprise us by adding a premium reliever and try to play a different game in the playoffs where starters aren't expected to go more than 4-5.

I agree with GREAT FATNESS (love that name) = Instead of a Starter, go after a Premium Reliever = Less Prospects to give up + as we go into the Play-Offs it becomes a Reliever's Game.

	It is not just the right of the person who speaks to be heard. It is the right of everyone in an audience to listen. Every time we silence someone, we make ourselves a prisoner of our own action, in that we deny ourselves the right to hear. Freedom of speech is meaningless, unless it protects the freedom of the person who thinks differently.
