One no-hitter and on one All-Star team does not qualify for H.O.F. it takes consistency over
The years.

]]> Comment on Royals Get James Shields, Play It “Safe” by C Riddle http://blog.buhner.com/2012/12/10/royals-get-james-shields-play-it-safe/comment-page-1/#comment-6820 C Riddle Wed, 09 Jan 2013 19:01:05 +0000 http://blog.buhner.com/?p=1325#comment-6820 Just about as articulate a response as I’ve seen regarding this trade. Pretty much spot on.

This trade was a hard one for me to swallow, since I’m so high on Myers and I expect that Odorizzi will be at least a third starter (Montgomery is a wild card, here), and I get the whole “bird in the hand” way of looking at it. Still, Myers is going to be, in my humble opinion, HUGE.

But then, I’ve been wrong before:

Billy Ashley
JR Phillips
Emilio Bonifacio
Russell Branyan
Richie Sexson

And so on…

With so many other great writers out there it always feels like my stuff is outdated or completely redundant by the time it gets posted.

Stay strong, my brotha and keep pounding the keys. If you feel there’s a story to write, write it.
