Carmona targeted for Buffalo last year...bailed them out TWICE!! Cabrera bailed them out last year. They started winning last year when they finally went with Gutierrez as the fulltime RF late. Now Aaron Laffey is again proving himself as he did last year as well. I wonder what his fate will be when Westbrooks comes back. He is better than Paul Byrd however.

It's a mystery. It's not like young players have failed them.
THUD!!!

I'd like to see it done like in football. Give each manager 1 review a game. So, there would be some penalty for being wrong when you question a call. Bring some strategy into it. 2 bad calls by same ump ( in one game) would result in him being put into a wood chipper.

Fargo should be part of the replay process
