Olivo, but no Hamilton/Volquez?

For some reason, that last comment made me think of Mr. Burns's lament that "yet if I were to have them killed, I would be the one to go to jail. That’s democracy for you."

Then it made me think of the "Dear Jackass" letter from the "Breakin' the Wand" essay in the '88 Abstract.

People, I beg of you, if you don't like what Dan does, for God's sake just go and ##### and whine elsewhere.

I guess I should have been clearer. I was trying to ask if a Hamilton/Volquez TO was coming.

Sorry to have ruined your morning though, JLAC. I'll go ahead and #### off, I guess.

Good job, guys, way to make it about what "Dan does."

Now we'll never see a TO on the Hamilton trade.

Having seen him play, this is decidedly untrue.

However, Olivo's projection is a perfectly respectable line for a backup catcher, and the Royals could have done a lot worse.

No Milton Bradley so far either. Ranger fans are distraught.

Yep. Both of us.

If Bell was managing, then Olivo would be gettin bizarre amounts of playing time as Buck was hitting a home run in every other game and hitting .187

And playing Olivo at third base!

Kinda surprised there weren't more teams after Olivo. I'd rather have him than say Paul LoDuca or Jason Kendall.
