look like fools for keeping Reminold down for Pie.

Responses:

Unlike Will, I disagree. Since the Pie deal had already been done. - the wrong element, bad guy Jun 2, 09:17
I don't disagree. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:04 11
- It's debateable whether using youngsters pre-FA elligible years are worthwhile if you aren't gonna contend. - musubi Jun 2, 09:06 10
  - I believe young hitters need to play at the ML level. Pitchers are another story. - groiny Jun 2, 09:09 5
    - Keeping them on the farm as long as they did is *precisely because* they aren't in contention. - musubi Jun 2, 09:14 2
      - the Indians were competetive for years by signing young guys while they were cheap. - groiny Jun 2, 09:17
      - Er, weren't. (nm) - musubi Jun 2, 09:15
    - For fools gold like Pie. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:09 1
      - If he can throw strikes, he is fine. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 2, 09:10
  - At some point, they're going to either be the answer or not. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:08 3
    - There are only so many days that young players are cheap. Point being, you try to sync those days to when you're feilding a competitive team. (nm) - musubi Jun 2, 09:13 2
      - the O's can't go the "cheap" route playing in that division. - groiny Jun 2, 09:15 1
        
        They *have* to because they are in that division. They aren't going to outspend the Yanks or Sox. (nm) - musubi Jun 2, 09:16
