And you hit on what I was thinking without typing it which is that what good are more prospects for us if we don't turn them into ML starters which we can't seem to do because Dayton won't part with them.
Do other cities have two of their GMs completely obsessed with one guy even they aren't performing the way we have it here with Cassel and Frenchy/prospects? Its simply maddening.

I'm not worried about style points, but the peripheral numbers with Broxton are pretty bad.
WHIP 1.408---OKish
SO/9 6.3---Oh shit.
BB: 14 SO: 23---Not good
He has a shit ton of runners on base, all the time. His luck will normalize, and he's going to be in deep shit. One of the things that's been helpful for the Royals, ironically enough, is that Broxton has been our fourth or fifth best reliever.
I'm hoping the duct tape holds and we move his ass because his gas can is starting to wiggle out of his back pocket.
