You could put that theme to a beheading and it would make it funny.

Stop ****ing with Martinez. Either leave him in Memphis and let him start there, or bring him up and let him start here. Enough with this bullpen shit.

Maybe he is having issues being in the USA, away from home. Getting use to travel, how do you pack a bag, say give me the steak and eggs in english etc. I read an interview with a player in the Larussa era that they were brought up to travel with the club, work with Cardinals to learn how live here. Forget who it was now. He was getting the next start of Lynn or Westbrook if they fell off the cliff. They are not going to fall off the cliff next week. Send him down to stay in shape.

Thats all fine, but Martinez is the next ace, he's every bit as good as Shelby, stuff wise.
He needs to be starting somewhere. Either bring him up to start, or leave him there to start every 5 days. |

Or the 3rd possible option, he was possible trade bait that didn't work out. You read Goulds chat on STL today? He had a bit in there that there are some in the Cardinals org that think his stuff is electric but he will never be consistent because he can't locate his stuff or something like that. Wonder if they are preparing the fan base for a trade? Not this year, but in the off season would you give up say Taveras and Martinez for Profar?

Taveras is the CF of the future for better or worse at this point. He's untouchable, especially for a SS who has been underwhelming this year. |

And if you feel he can't locate, he needs to be throwing every 5 days so that electric stuff can be located.
From what my dad heard from someone in the know, they pretty much fell/felt that Martinez was untouchable. |

Profar is young, but he has been ****ing awful this year. I don't think I'd trade Wacha for him at this point.
To be honest, most Rangers prospects have been horribly overrated. Olt was just traded for K-Rod's washed up ass, Smoak was a disaster, and Profar looks like Alexei Ramirez at the dish while playing subpar defense at every IF position. A lot of teams have reputations for overrating their prospects, and it's fair to say the Rangers are one.

I understand the questions about Martinez, and I would make him available for the right price, but it would be a very, very high bar to clear.

Guys,
Just so you know, you may get some weird posts from me tonight, because my back really flared up about 90 minutes ago, and about a half hour ago I took a Tylenol 4, and I am ****ing wasted.
