Sorry – but he cannot write at all. He never has any factual back up, in fact many arguments he poses are completely inaccurate.

Writing is not easy, it’s not for everyone, he should not be wasting anymore time on it.

Pomes may be misguided and often over the top, but at least he can write a little bit.

Ay least Pomes is original in addition to outrageous. But seriously, what have we learned from this post that we already didnt know??? This post is useless and discredits the other posts which were good on the site today.

It’s obviously not spring training for you, John. You’re in mid-season form with your totally useless and “no s–t, Sherlock” posts on this site. Joe D, I’m begging you, please, be a blog GM or Manager and make your first cut of the spring. I don’t think I could stand another season of reading this stuff. Yeah I know, I can just ignore it. But there’s actually a perverse thrill in reading whether he can top himself in his complete lack or originality or insight. But why torture the rest of this site’s readers?

Well maybe they’ll have enough left over to buy my local, then they could mortgage IT up to the hilt and put Oliver behind the stick, Murphy on the door and maybe he could get Frankie Cats and the deaftones on the stage.

Bye Bye…….. I’m sure the Wilpons will be very sad to see nobody on the beer line. They were really counting on you to keep them in power…..

I don’t care if they keep Ollie until March 29th. I don’t even care if they put him on the DL to start the season but if they put him on the roster, that is a totally different matter. There are enough arms (and ones that require backups for) that we don’t need to use another roster spot on a totally useless player. He cannot do anything out of the pen and he hasn’t had any success as a starter since 2008. He’s not even capable of throwing BP. The only possible use for him is to train new catching prospects. After that they should be able to catch anyone.

Decisions have been made around here for a longtime with money as the major focus (Wagner), but if Ollie gets a roster spot over even a minimum wage pitcher like Beato, Gee, Parnell, Misch or really anyone, that will be the final straw. If he causes us to lose a player who could help us now AND on into the future then that’s it. It’s over.

It would be very very bad for you writers for Oliver to be cut. You’d all be down to Castillo on the easy to write about list and then you all would have to go to work!!
