No one is harder on that bearded fuck than me but he's been great second half. Learned how to pitch at 92 rather than 95 . Seems a lot more cross body than before but he's got it working. Stilll not giving him 200 million at his age but he's manned up when they've needed it.

100% agree.

Arrieta, Lackey and Strop have all been good in the 2nd half.

Not throwing him new money, but he's trying to earn it.

Nothing has changed for me. You offer him four years at top dollar and wish him best of luck and thank him for the great pitching he has provided since 2013 if he doesn't take it.

Quietly, Arrietta has been one of the top 10 pitchers in all of baseball this year.

You are drinking wine? No wonder you got rebuffed

The heavy wine pour while you have a couple glasses with the wife is usually the best move to NOT get rebuffed. :lol:

Extra wine is also a great asset when it's 10:00 and you still feel like drinking.
Just make sure to dispose of the evidence if you kill the whole bottle.

Wine is good. Definetly a home drink or with a nice dinner. I'm not ordering it at the bar.

Kind of awkward, but I was gonna ask if you wanted to go to this neat little Swedish town next weekend. Figured we could go garage saleing afterward.

What about wine/craft brew tasting in Oglesby? Or if Hank is game, maybe we can all head to Shipshewana Indiana?

Leash was just ripping me a few months ago for saying I was drinking wine more lately. Very sad.

No I wasn't you fucking liar. I agreed and said I also liked wine but not in a gay JORR-ish way.

Don't misrepresent me, bro.

Sorry. Crossed wires. Anyone who doesn't appreciate you isn't worth keeping around, Hank.

Not liking wine means you have serious mental difficulties the likes of which is beyond modern medicine's ability to assist you with.

Same goes for liquor.

You can keep beer entirely.

He's been solid for 10 starts now, I still wouldn't give him anything more than a 1 year deal. Thanks and good luck buddy.
