        Think if we really needed a roster spot so bad it would have been better not to tender the choke artist Coke.

      No room, rule 5 draft is tomorrow (again no room), and fingers being crossed that he doesn’t get picked up?

    Jocketty should pick up Marte, good bullpen depth. Numbers look good in the big leagues, although a small sample size. 27 years old, cost controlled.

    This is the only guy on the 40 that would clear waivers

    I’m a little shocked by this. Marte had originally made the team last year prior to being injured. I’d rather send Coke packing personally and let Crosby(recently converted to a reliever) compete for a BP spot in ST
