You guys gotta give this a listen. Really eye opening stuff. McKernan has done some other pretty cool interviews too.

I assume he believes Oquendo will magically improve the defense. Its not exactly a hard hitting interview if you have 40+ minutes and dont question the defense or baserunning we saw in 2017. Those things are as crucial as the bullpen. Seriously.

The thing that Mo is missing here is that late season rentals can sometimes ignite your club and they are fun as hell for fans. Bring the fun back every once in a while.

Off the topic, I would wager that Lance Lynn never joined Matheny's bible group. And Bow Tie = Bozo.

So true on Lynn. But I get why they're not resigning him for those years. Sorta. Almost makes a little sense to sign him and sell high on one of the pitching prospects. I dig the job Mo does. I'm old enough to remember the Dal Maxwell GM days. Those teams were brutal. Of course, not sure how much he was hamstrung by the Augie's unwillingness to spend money.

Many of those years were under the Brewery after Gussie died. That's when the spending really died.

True, I kinda forgot about that. Like really late 80's-early 90's, right?
