Westheim, cheer up. Imagine if you had no money, no prospects, and the likes of Ian Kennedy locked up to a long term deal. (I’ll always exclude Gordon because of the biggest home run in Royals history but you could add him if helps you feel better about your team).

Seriously, we’ve got two Rule 5 guys who are amongst the most dependable pitchers. Our best player was signed expressly to be traded, which means he probably tears up his knee the day a deal is to happen. Our closer with a sub 1 ERA is wasted on the team and will be dealt. And....AND.......the people in town act like Whit Merrifield is Superman. That is a bad team if he’s your hero.

It’s all relative, buddy. You can’t control these guys. They’ve got talent. That Conforto thing yesterday would make me puke if I had to see it more than once but still they’re just one under.

Braves are throwing a curve in there aside from the Nats given the division but still, while the Meets aren’t playing good baseball for their talent level, like I said, it’s all relative as far as how bad it could be.....

Sandy Alderson though....terrible. I wouldn’t take him for my GM even if you offered to take Ian Kennedy off my hands,
