Status: offline 		Went to high school with a Golden Gloves boxer who was Upper Midwest Champ. He was tall and thin. At 5'11", he only weighed 135 lbs. But super super quick with his hands and feet.

When he was in Golden Gloves, he avoided fights since it could have gotten him kicked out. Later, after high school, he would stroll through a bar, say hi to a chick......chick's boyfriend would get pissed and although much bigger, challange him. A couple of seconds later, boom bam, and the boyfriend is knocked out on the floor.

I always tried to stay on this guys good side.

OF Oswaldo Arcia, who was DFA'd last week by #Rays, claimed off waivers by #Marlins

No, Dyer had the same rib surgery that Hughes just had. His biggest weakness was between his ears.

Let him pitch his way off that list. I know it is early, but for now, he belongs there.

In your opinion. You seem to forget that quite often on this forum.

It is your opinion. It isn't fact. As was the list.....it was murf's opinion.

Me.....I put Kyle Gibson on the list instead of a 22 year old kid like Berrios. But that is my opinion.

But that is my opinion.

Murph's list. Not mine. It's a good list though except for Berrios. Swap him out for Gibson. I guarantee you Berrios has a MUCH better career than Gibson, who could be out of the league soon.
