I imagine he will be employed before August and for a playoff contender who can better appreciate his skills.

This. Not sure about the .300 part. If Barney hits .260 that would be the equivalent.

.300 Nah....never happen ...2nd base just isn't that difficult to play...he's a dime a dozen...I'm glad he's gone...he's outta the majors in 18- months.

That's got to be true. With Baonafacio back, they needed the roster space and we know Alcantara, Russell or Baez will be manning that (2B) position next season. He always was a fundamentally sound player, who played the game the right way. He just couldn't hit enough to keep the job. I will wish him well, wherever he lands, whenever he is not playing VS the Cubs.

They gave him a nice parting gift with that 2 million in the off season. They knew the writing was on the wall then. He'll be fine, kick round another 5 years or so as a good glove no hit utility dude for 1 to 2 million a year for some contenders. Save his pennies, enjoy being a Dad. Life is good.

He really fucked up by taking that leave.
Not saying it was wrong to do so.
But it gave someone much better his chances.

friend of mine recently met Darwin, they leave across the alley from him, his kids of course became huge Darwin fans. Wonder how this is working out.

If his kids are huge Darwin fans they probably shouldve expected this outcome, no? :roll:

He got Wally Pipped.
He needs to learn to not hit the ball in the air. My son was a big fan. He's a bit bummed.

Wally got hurt. This bum took time off like two or three days off BEFORE the kid was born.
It was kind of odd.

One man's injury is another man's paternity leave. The result is the same.
