I literally saw the thread title and yelled "BINGO"

I don't think there's ever been a time period where I would have said, "we should sign Francouer"

It's not a big deal, but it sure feels like a fuck you gesture from that smug prick who somehow is still running the team. And I don't relish all the easy, lazy snark this will trigger from the Cameron/Law types.

Full list of NRIs:

Frenchy (last played for SD)
Xavier Paul (last played for AZ)
Andres Blanco (re-signed)
Brian Bogusevic (previously reported)
Darin Mastroianni (previously reported)
John Hester (previously reported)
Russ Canzler (AAA the last two seasons, played for TB in 2011 and CLE in 2012)
Chase d'Arnaud (PIT)

I'm just glad this inevitable consummation was now instead of three years ago when I felt Francoeur was destined to sign a multi-year deal here

seems like a really nice guy. he did that pizza thing.

no wonder there hasn't been a tomas deal yet. leverage!

Needs a five-foot bat. Why would you ever throw him a strike?

In addition to Francoer's bingo-card-ness, we have added yet another to the wrong brother syndrome with Chase D'Arnaud.

This is a glorious picture.
And you know Rube looks at it and thinks "gamer"

Rube finally got his white whale and we should be proud of him.

Two of the three last teams he played for (horrendously) were the Royals and Giants!
