PURPS

That’s the 5th player lost or traded off the list.

It’s also the 4th player lost from the farm system lately that has netted zero return (except cash). Morillo, David Patton, JoeKo, and Everth Cabrera.

To be fair

That cash can be used to fill up the soda machine. And the soda machine has better command than Morillo.

Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field?
