Click- we are aggressive blah blah blah. 
Reading between the lines talking about roster balance you can tell he thinks we have too many starters. 
said Meyers is 100% but isn’t me tally back and ready to air it out- working with Pettis on the arm but said 3 times he is a special CF and runs down balls Click doesn’t believe anyone can get to- seemed pretty high on him still. 
said Lance looked really good last time out and they just want to keep hearing everything feels normal because normal is a special pitcher.  

said he tries to avoid talking to Dusty about anything bc he’s a mouth breathing moron and just wished Crane would let him fire Dusty and bring back AJ. 

 

I might have completely made up that last paragraph when he was talking about Dusty.

No, I heard that last part too.

I'd take Donovan for Odorizzi.

I couldn’t even begin to form an educated opinion on what I’d like to see coming back beyond this- give me 2 or 3 high beta 19 year olds that will likely never make the league but have some sort of high ceiling that you can dream on.

That was intentional. You could see from the behind home plate he released it towards Altuve.

Fuck you bitch.

NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. Servais is bitchboy.

 

I think we're gonna see both bullpens running on the field at some point today.

Meyers is special, all right. 

Young- hasn’t played a lot in his career, major injury, no spring training, injury sapping his ability to throw and hit for power. 
you aren’t a scrub when you have the kind of power to the big part of the ballpark he showed last year- and like I said- he really really went out of his way to praise his defense. 
call this year a cluster fuck, option him back to the minors when we get reinforcements bat wise in the next 3 days, and then see what you have next year in spring training, bc yeah- it’s not going to happen this year.

I knew you'd rush to his defense. And I believe at least most of what you say about Meyers is true, or is likely to be. The question thus is maybe more "when" than "if." I just don't think we're going to get that much positive out of him in the short term, given the shoulder issue and all. I'd rather have a veteran in that spot while our title window is wide open. I think that even includes Dubon.

Nope. Meyers's offense is completely dependent on an astronomically unsustainable BAbip.

Were warnings issued?

Nope.
