you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Someone explain to me why we need a 30 year old right hander coming off shoulder surgery?

His Marcel projection for this season:

5-6, 17 GS, 88 IP, 7.57 k/9, 4.09 bb/9, 1.02 HR/9, .298 BABIP, 70.8 LOB%, 4.35 FIP, 4.34 xFIP

basically he's better than Kendrick. looks like he'd be more prone to bang or bust outings because of that shit-ass BB/9, but if he's only gonna be used for spot starts anyway i'd rather have him chill in AAA and use Kendrick as our Durbin/Baez/Condrey/whoever
no offense but you are everything that's wrong with America

Dubee was intrigued by Maine's surly mound demeanor. Reminded him of himself

Didn't Rube Waddell used to call in his outfield to sit in the infield?

At first I thought "That's Satchel Paige." But you are correct:

Waddell enjoyed waving his teammates off the field and then striking out the side. He actually did so only in exhibition games, since the rules prohibit playing with fewer than nine men on the field in regulation play. But, in a league game in Detroit, Waddell had his outfielders come in close and sit down on the grass. He struck out the side. Once the stunt almost backfired. Pitching an exhibition in Memphis, he took the field alone with his catcher, Doc Powers, for the last three innings. With two out in the ninth, Powers dropped a third strike, allowing the batter to reach first. The next two hitters patted flies that fell behind the mound. Waddell ran himself ragged but finally fanned the last man.[2
