I'd almost want to go get Jose Vidro.
Why do people hate Jose Vidro so much on this forum lol?

The dude slashed .314/.381/.394 w. 172 hits his first year w. the M's.
Cause his last year with the M's he fell off the edge of the table at the same time Sexson did. It was a waste of money as they should have had him on a year to year contract.
Meh. If any M in the next decade puts up a .381 OBP I'll donate my fkn kidney.

Dipoto has to sign a DH just to keep Servais from saddling us with these .700 OPS hitters getting a "night off".

Absolute stupidest way to use the DH.

Automatically put yourself at a .150 OPS disadvantage compared to the other teams DH. So dumb.

Because you don't need your DH getting on base. It's one of the few positions you can stash a SLG guy, and they wasted it on a 2B type bat that would clearly decline.

If they wanted Vidro, they'd need to let him play in the field and sign an actual bat that is capable of driving his chubby ass in once he waddled his way to first base.

Once he could no longer play in the field, he had no value because that's trash as a DH.

Torrens blocks the pitch... with nobody on base

We're making Turnbull look like he should have a 25-9 career record, rather than 9-25.
Your Seattle Mariners. Making scrubs look like Cy Young material until they play another team and raise their ERA to over 8.

Good point on Vidro and I remember thinking the same thing. Why sign a singles hitter to DH?

Fine, just don't do it as a wasted DH spot.

Vidro was 14th of 16 in OPS as a DH in his good year with the M's. Absolute trash.

I think I'm going to take a break from ranking on Scott Servais, and focus on Tim Laker. WTF qualifies him as a hitting coach ?

Good point. And if Torrens comes back up and lights it up, we can definitely look at Laker.
