On top of being incompetent, you can't embarrass the organization with a signing like this.

Plus he blatantly lied by saying "there is no other option" than to let the process play out. Um, you can DFA the guy and pay him the $12m. I know you and Jerry don't want to do that, but it is an option.

Fuck due process. Just stop the investigation and hang Clevinger in Parking Lot D tomorrow.

Why the hell would they not play it out at least until opening day? At least try to save $12M.

Of course you play it out. It's still embarrassing to the organization.

This is what happens when you go dumpster diving in Free Agency

Its really not. They are not the first to sign a piece of shit, wont be the last and they likely have, along with the rest of the teams in the league, several other pos throughout the organization.

Well at least they got all those other awesome free agents.

It looks like keeping Cueto and OG Abreu would have been better.

Boston isn't their big free agent splash. I won't hold it against any team if they want to hire Mike Clevinger as a coach 40 years from now.

You think he was a "big free agent splash"?

He's a fifth starter. A hurt guy they hope will be okay.

He was our splash.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

They desperately needed a left handed starter. They also needed a sixth starter type, just in case there was some misfortune. Hahn pursued neither.

They still are going into the season with nothing at 2B. I agree that they had to give Colas his chance in RF. Their closer has cancer.

It's just not acceptable for JR, after all those years of low budget tanking followed by reasonably priced young players, to throw up his hands crying poor.
