The official "JPA is a useless twat" thread

As I type this:

7 2B
8 HR
16 RBI
.538 SLG

I thought innocent, tongue and cheek trolling was allowed lol

Speaking of trolls (or former trolls) - we could really use Greenwood here. He brought some contrarian life to the board.

We'll have to invite him when we get tired of the circle-jerk of enlightened scholars who always agree with each other. 

I think AA has anointed JPA the catcher of the future because his striking good looks attract a lot of female fans.

Seriously, no way he can actually think JPA is NOT horseshit at all aspects of baseball... this has to be a marketing ploy.

I wonder what one of the Reds' catchers - probably Hanigan over Mesoraco - would cost.

Here the thing, I actually like JP's personalty. He does look like he works hard and loves playing here, hes just a bad baseball player.

Good for 5th on our team.

There will be a time for this, but let's wait until his K rate regresses to a solid 50%.

I approve of this thread. Fuck that clown.

Well that's what I was suggesting Hannigan for. Mesoraco is like 27, no? Same draft as JPA I think. I'm not sure about his defensive abilities but Hanigan is probably one of the best, if not the best, defensive catcher in the league, and few people realize it. He's tremendously underrated.

Wow, I had no idea Mesoraco was so young. I'm well aware of Mesoraco's offensive capabilities but I wasn't sure on his defense, I don't watch enough Reds games. I was just scared he'd be the same kind of guy as Arencibia lol.

I think they value Hanigan more tbh, or else they would've traded him by now. I just don't know how much Mes would cost. 

Sad but true.

I just heard that Zaun called JPA 'Mike Piazza with better defense and arm'. LOL!

LOL.........at you guys thinking AA is looking for a catcher!
