Think about it.
When they get back from Houston, they send Moose and Getz to Omaha, and DFA Frenchy. That would have to get Hosmer's attention. Have to. Even if Moose just goes down for a couple weeks. They could DFA Getz too, but we've been lucky that so far Dyson has been the only injury casualty. Got to keep that in mind for the long haul.

I've said all along you need to make the Cold Corner understand playign MLB isn't a right. It's a privilege. One that can (and should) be revoked at any time without warning. Just like Cleveland did with Chisenhall.
Unfortunately we have a GM who doesn't believe in accountability either from his players or himself. That's why he gives players long leashes, and why he gives himself an even longer one ("It can take 10 years"). If the GM is never to blame, the players begin to think they're blameless too.
