For what it's worth, some pitchf/x guys don't think the declining velocity will be a major issue since Haren relies more on the secondary stuff than his fastball anyway.

This is Marmol's right since Hendry gave out NTCs like candy to save money, but man I hope he goes :D

You can be pretty frustrating as well. Declining velocity might become Youk is done when it is all said and done.

I know I am, and I never deny being frustrating.

as for your second part...of course it could. but remember....i didnt say it wasnt a good move....my complaint is the theo fapping mainly. and as of right now haren is a 4th starter....not done but a 4th starter.

I don't try to mimic anybody actually, my posting simply evolves over time, doesn't change on a bipolar day-today basis.

Why not try to focus on the trade instead of your obsession with hating certain posters and how dense you think they are. At least some of your posts here actually relate to the team and sport and it is a sport you actually care about in this scenario, so I have to give you credit for that.
:rolleyes:

So there's that.

Maybe the Angels decided they didn't want Marmol and will let him go to FA #sarcasm

agreed. part of why i figured Haren would be okay with the trade is b/c it gets him back to the pitcher-friendly NL in a contract year.
