Yorman Bazardo to waivers?
Word on the street is that RHP Yorman Bazardo has been placed on waivers to make room for RHP Jeff Weaver on the 40-Man Roster. Bazardo spent 2006 with the AA - San Antonio Missions of the Texas League. He performed well in relief playing in the Venezuelan Winter League with 21 appearnces and a 1.78 ERA.

Bazardo was acquired in the Villone deal, and now is likely gone. Another nice deal gone to waste.

What a waste. Surely there was someone with less upside on the 40 man?

Goose · 02-01-2007, 03:01 PM

Really? Bazardo? Come on. I can think of a dozen better candidates to waive.

C'mon guys, you know we have plenty of pitching! (sarcasm alert)

Bazardo probably wouldn't have helped out the club this year so he is expendable in Bavasi's eyes. You see, all he cares about is 2007.

Scrubs like Jimenez and Sean Green are much more valuable. Good grief.

The more Bavasi throws away the players he has dealt for, the more he makes himself look like the inept GM he truly is.

Bazardo has been DFA'd.

Stupid.

Yet another great Bavasi trade. We take a commodity everybody wants - left handed pitching (Villone) - and we give him away for absolutely nothing. Bavasi may be the worst trader since the Indians gave up Manhattan for some glass beads.

This is an awful move. Seriously. There is no freakin' consistency in this organization.

Sure there is consistency here. Heres the formula:

1. Wait till we are completely out of the running... and I mean completely. Foregoing any chance of getting top return out of players.

2. Trade expendable commodities for youth.

3. Watch youth develop and start to show promise or watch them flounder and suck it up.

4. Regardless of how the players progress. Release, DFA or lose to waivers said players asap.

Wash, rinse and repeat.

Its a quick magic act of how to turn something of ranging value into absolutely nothing in less than a years time. Bavasi truly is a magician in that aspect.

Why the hell did Bavasi pick up Sean White?

Because he is older and has less upside than Bazardo. Oh yeah, and he [Bavasi] had to act like he was doing something this off-season besides swinging and missing on the upper rotation starters.
