Eat the contract, Wayne

Eat. The. Contract.

DFA Mike Stanton now!

Just when I was starting to feel good about the team again after the disaster here in DC, Stinkton gives up a month's worth of runs to put a one run game out of reach.

The guy has sucked all year, but he just keeps getting worse. It was stupid enough that you signed his ancient arm to a two year contract, Wayne, but it is just as stupid that you keep him on the team. DFA him - nobody's going to claim him and he'll clear waivers. Then he can pitch in the minors and teach all of those young 'uns down there.

That's not counting today's disaster.

The least you could do, Wayne, is put him on the DL for the rest of the season and pray that a miracle will take place between now and next year.
