My Hands Are Shaking.

by Jeff Sullivan on Dec 13, 2006 5:06 PM PST in Regular News Comment 42 comments

I'm dead serious. My hands are shaking uncontrollably right now as I sit in my chair.

Bill Bavasi needs to go, and he needs to go last month.

don't...

you guys already have a 2nd baseman?

by kenshin1 on Dec 13, 2006 5:09 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

No.

We just have a rock there. Maybe that's been our problem all along. Seriously. Like a rock. Literally.

Wheeeee....

It's like Mr. Burns trying to find ringers for his company softball team..

"I'm sorry, sir..but most of the players you've chosen are retired and have since..passed on. In fact, your second baseman has been dead for 130 years."

UnFuckingBelievable

This cannot be true. No one could be so stupid as to trade two cheap, talented players for a piece we don't need. This cannot be. Words Fail Me.

I'm sitting here laughing

What else can I do?

I guess I'll have to take this Hargrove shit much longer...ugh

by WAB on Dec 13, 2006 5:18 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

Ok....

There has been no official release yet of anykind....but I'm probably just kidding myself.

Bill Bavasi is single handedly not only destroying any chance of winning this year, but for YEARS to come. Jose Vidrooooo...ohhhh my God this cant really be happening.

by anotherjeff on Dec 13, 2006 5:18 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

Okay...

Lemme just ask, where's Vidro playing, why are we paying for him, and why are we giving up talent for him?

Cheers.

Vidro takes over the DL spot

by Matthew on Dec 13, 2006 5:46 PM PST up reply actions 1 recs

I ran into Bavasi this past summer

while strolling through Green Lake. I struck up a conversation with him. It was a jovial one, since he had just released Everett.

Needless to say, I regret not killing him on the spot.

You!

You were the one! You could have saved us all!

by J.W. Pezzino on Dec 13, 2006 5:22 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs

I don't know what is worse

The fact that we dealt Snelling/Fruto for Jose Freakin' Vidro, or the fact that we are paying 12 million of the remaining 16 million bucks left on Vidro's contract over the next two years.

It's all bad

just think of this as a lose-lose-lose situation.

Thanks Bill.

On the Bright Side...

Maybe this means we're just close to signing someone else. Like Jay Payton or Sammy Sosa!

Is there a blog for former M's fans that are now Nationals fans yet?

Translation: FUCK!

So, about that Safeco rally...

This move makes nothing but nonsense.

Precursor to a Beltre trade???

Iceberg, right ahead!

by PositivePaul on Dec 13, 2006 5:29 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

Beltre move???

I just can't see that. Beltre is plus defense and with the new groundball staff he is needed. It has to be Lopez going.

Of course it is Bavasi. Get a bunch pf pitchers ho absolutely need defense, then thro Vidro at 3rd base. Ugh.

I think it's changed from "Iceberg, right ahead!" to "Hey Shamus! Did you hear something banging down the Starboard side?"

by Ben in Va on Dec 13, 2006 5:40 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs

WWWWW

Sorry..my W keep is working as well as Bavasi.

Should be "Who" and not "ho" And "throw" not thro.

by Ben in Va on Dec 13, 2006 5:42 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs

I only hope this is a prelude to bigger moves

Hopefully....

I guess I'll have to take this Hargrove shit much longer...ugh

by WAB on Dec 13, 2006 5:29 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

They will only get worse

if there are more. Bavasi lacks the intelligence to pull off good moves. The Nats have a retarded GM and he just made Bavasi look stupid.

I'm depressed

Now I'm really sad. I just, I'm sad. I'm sad that there are people in our society as stupid as Bill Bavasi.

by I'm NOT Corco on Dec 13, 2006 5:29 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

This CANNOT be true! No one could be so stupid as to make this deal! Cheap, talented useful players for an aging, overpaid middle infielder who plays a position we have locked up for the next 5+ years...

Thank God I found out about this before the liquor store closes...

I actually cried

wow... Bavasi I take back anything nice I ever said about you. To think I defended him against most unkowing fans who thought Gilick was a saint.

Fuck you Bavasi. I hope someone makes you a amputee

Cmon Guys, calm down

Your not being violent enough. Here let me take over for you. Somebody get me a small cuddly animal to drop kick into Bavasi's office window.

Good Morning to me...

Well, my surprise level wasn't reached....not after all the other Bavasi Stupidity I've seen....my level of apathy remains unchanged. Snelling will have a fine career. Fruto will be Fruto and Bavasi is, again, the laughing stock of the GM's. This had to be a move powered by Hargrove, trade a young player for a proven, washed up, piece of shit, veteran. Bavasi has become Hargrove's bitch. Okay....apathy has turned to anger. Hold Bavasi down and tattoo I suck on the back of bald head....

I killed a 12 pack just to watch it die...
