Mejia was brought up here for one reason and one reason only. He cost the minimum. Period. Omar had one last chance, blew his few remaining chips on Bay and had to cheap out every where else. Hense GMJ, Jacobs, Cattalanotto, Carter and Mejia. Same reason he didn’t get rid of Perez in June. He would have had to pay someone to replace him and he had already busted. Same reason he sold the two picks that Wagner could have brought, to save the bottom line 1M in slary 1.5 Mil in the buyout, 2.5 mil to the two picks for their signing bonus. He knew he was the longest of long shots with the type of roster he was reduced to going with and those 2 picks were as likely to help him as Perez was so he just sold’em. Living large on the weekend and sifting through the trash M-F. What a plan, what a team.

???

“The point is that he we will never know if what he learned out weighs what he could of learned if he was kept on his path of being a starter?”

So the hell what?

“I agree and Mejia himself was quoted to say that he learned a lot in his brief time in the majors”

So if that’s true, then isn’t it a GOOD thing? The experience HELPED Mejia, it didn’t hurt him.

It was a good experience after riding buses in the Minor leagues. As far as developing him for the future it was a hindrance because he was told by his manager not to throw any of the pitches he needs to learn in games. How was it a positive? Nicer hotels, better meal money, Charlie Samuels?

Young prospects should not be up here until they are ready to begin their Major League Career’s succesfully.

Because the middle relief roll is very different from being a starter. also, Manuel limited his pitch selection so he had little chances to further develope anything other than his cutter.

TruFan,

You said you that bringing him up hindered his development, and now even if Mejia said the experienced helped him, you STILL say it was bad. why?

Because of numbers? Eeven though Mejia learned alot from his short time up here, it’s still bad because he didn’t reach 200+ innings? Why should that matter? If it was a GOOD experienece for him then how could it be a BAD thing?

It makes no sense, but hey whatever the numbers say, right?

That’s like me saying “Hey Des did you know Todd Hundley once hit 41 HRs?” and you saying “Wow, when did he do that?”

..and then me saying “Oh, what difference does it make when he did it but he did do it once. It’s true.

lol, nobody does that!

you just want to soften the impact, now.

I said I fleshed out the story tonight because you didn’t believe me when I originally talked about Jerry. It is all true. What difference does it make when the material was published as long as it’s all consistent?

I knew from Day One that the story was true and consistent. You, for some strange reason, want to fight all the time. Your biggest enemy is YOU.

The acid test is whether everything is true and it all hangs together. I’m thinking nothing will ever please you.

From now on fight with yourself. I think you really have a problem. And it’s not about facts.

Bayonne,
I fleshed out the story with details because when I originally tried to explain it to you, I obviously failed. You attack, attack, attack. My original story was 100% correct. I gave you the internals of the story but I doubt it means anything to you because you seem to take a position on your posts and defend the position to the end, regardless of any additional evidence. I changed no salient facts in my story, but I gave supporting details. Too bad you are so hostile.

You’re not gonna respond because it’s another one of your lies, another one of your embellishments. But that’s okay, old people like to tell old wives tales and embellish the stories..no problem, I’ll probably do it too one day.

Des I knew they were doing a fund raiser for it back in 2007 – according the article that was written. You’re changing your tune now, you said he was flying back to CA to manage the college team for William Jessup college and you gave a link – from a writer who gave the link in HIS story which was first published in 2007. You just got it all straightened out now, and you spent the last few hours researching it and making it look like now that’s what you said in the first place.

You old battle ax, you guys like to embellish your stories, like the time you knew what David Wright said to reporters after one of your defenses of him. Take a hike.

Bayonne, I’m not going to respond to you. You’re just intransigent. It’s a waste of time.
