Of course you don't want to be harsh. You're a nice guy. I'm not.
Ellsbury is utterly and completely useless. He's as soft and fragile as a milk-soaked Twinkie. At this juncture, he's little more than a complete waste of a valuable roster spot.
By hook or by crook, Cashman needs to expunge this balsa wood bozo from their roster. I'd rather see his roster spot filled by a perpetually light-hitting pipsqueak with grit and guts like Tyler Wade than by someone like Flopsbury, who can't even get it up to suit up. In fact, I'd rather have ANYONE fill that roster spot other than Flopsbury, including most convicted felons and/or war criminals.
He's a bum.
