This thread is why this :? was invented.

Just gotta give this one a "Huh?"

 

[Jaypers]

I edited the OP because someone posted it already. Mods can go ahead and delete this.

FYI. I think this is way too early for Manny.

 

[VandyDan]

oh okay. i thought it meant "just kidding, not called up".

 

[matchpenalty]

Think we see a big spike in prices now?

I know we have few guys sitting on mega stashes here. Orioles in race and Manny called up. Perfect storm for some big prices.

my 9.5 elite auto might get listed.

This makes no sense. I guess he's taking Flaherty's spot on the roster? But what's he going to do...sit? He certainly isn't going to start over JJ Hardy. And if he does, I'll be pissed.

 

[ThoseBackPages]

SELL!!!!!

I agree. I wonder if the 37% of capacity tonite and not much more for the Weekend had anything to do with it. Not that a team would risk a big prospect for ticket sales, just part of the Decision?

He's gonna play third.

Sounds like playing at 3B

 

[Jaypers]

SELL!!!!!

I would if I owned any. Not a one.

Okay, so he's played 2 games at third and we are going to throw a 19 year old making his major league debut at a new position? Nice.

 

[markakis8]

Hey, he has a great chance at hitting better than Betemit...if he does and doesn't make an error every other game, let him play.
