Trade: [NYM/TOR] Marcus Stroman for Anthony Kay and Simeon Woods-Richardson

[King Mapes]

He hasn’t had many big games to pitch and has been meh at best.

Not bitter just don’t like jackasses like him.

He’s a pretty chill dude to talk to not really a jackass but to each their own. That WC game he pitched in was huge. But you don’t have enough games to go off of even though you say you’d never want him pitching in them even though he’s done good. Good logic.

I lose respect for players who decide to talk trash about an organization after they leave. Have the guts to say it while you are still there if that is how you feel.

Game 5 vs Texas as well.

He did. This has been going on for like 2 years, he just wasn’t public about it. Why would a player go public while on the team? There has been tension for years though. This isn’t new.

Stroman often discussed his frustration with not getting a long term extension, it was very well known and documented that he wanted to be here and the team just was not willing to re-up.
