Farhan laughing at all of us right now.
None of this happens without injuries. He deserves no credit.
Good god lighten up Buzz Killington.
How am I being a buzzkill? Because I don't want to give credit to the GM for promoting players due to injury that he never was planning on promoting?
This recent stretch has been incredible with some amazing comebacks. Watching the young guys has been awesome. But they would be in AAA without injuries.
Regardless of what their record is right now I still think Farhan did a pretty good job in free agency getting some solid players without taking huge risks on salary and years. If Snell turns out to be a bust I am not going to put that on Farhan because there isnt anyone I know who wouldnt have gone after him hard for the deal he got. Pretty much everyone also loved the signing of Soler as well. We can only hope that both Snell and Soler get back to the form they showed just last year.
