If the prospects don't pan out we're fucked whether we have a bunch of mid-level free agent bandaids on the roster either way, so I don't see why we shouldn't just root for the front office to do whatever they need to do to carry out their plan.

And that's why we're all baseball fans -- so we can root for front offices.

That's who I root for. *points to Epstink shirsey*

I want one! Do they come in fat guy sizes?

I was tempted to tag that with something like "23 Desipio Posts Only '80s Buttheads Will Understand".

Why are those damn lists always a weird number? Lists should only be in multiples of 5.

So...maybe he actually can stick at catcher?

Is that what we want? Wouldn't that mean he's NOT Babe fucking Ruth? Because if he is in fact that, they won't play him at catcher. If he's merely Wellington fucking Servardihill, I think we're all glad he's not Paul Bako and do some shirtless chest bumps anyway. But when I see, Schwarber, Catcher, it's not full on 5-second sploogetasticism in less than optimal stance material.

It sounded like the catcher path would slow him down. If he keeps hitting he'll force his way into the majors at a different position. I think catcher is a position I don't really want to see fucked around with. Elite catcher bat combined with poor catching skills is a scary proposition. I'd take an average catcher bat as long as the guy can call/receive a good game and throw. Maybe that's dumb.
