Everybody on here new Brantley wasn't coming back, the irritating part is that Click knew, could have done something, and screwed it up.

I just don’t know what true CF were available that were realistic. And I say true CF because it’s apparent that frickhead won’t explore any alternatives. I swear I wonder if he actually remembers that Tucker played CF in the WS?

He got a player fully capable of playing LF. Click has had his fair share of screwups I think what he did at the deadline was fine. Not great, not terrible.

Click on Mancini playing LF and on CF playing time. Sounds like he's endorsing Mancini in LF. Better make that clear to Dusto.

If they knew Brantley was having surgery then why trade Siri, or at least get a left handed bat before the deadline. Trade deadline was botched badly.


I thought that’s why we got Mancini. Wasn’t he playing LF for Baltimore? Play the guy! Dubon should only be used as spot duty. I can’t take much more of Dusty.

I hope our scouting department has this kid on their radar already. You have to like the cut of his jib.

Not really, only 2 games this season, more RF and mostly 1B/DH. He's capable though. LF was his primary position his first few seasons.

“One of the challenges of the deadline was how do we fix what isn’t broken? We have the best record in the AL so we don’t want to make massive changes to the team. We wanted to add pieces to help in August/September in case of injures. We trust Dusty to put the best lineups out there every day over the long haul to make sure we’re in position to win the World Series.”


Click said all of this with a straight face. Fire them both.

Lulz. Click is one of the most analytically driven GMs in the game. He started ss a baseball prospectus writer for crimes sake. Would love to give him truth serum.

Seems noteworthy. I'll take this as a message and not a statement

It reflects badly on him to be forced to back this buffoon. Trying to backtrack after the fact isn't going to absolve him of anything. However, I do believe Crane is as much to blame as Dusty while Click is just eating it.

He's trapped. Crane hired dusty. Dusty is black. End of story.
