Joel Collins???
Saw this on the transactions page of sfgiants.com while looking for Bumgarner info. Who is Joel Collins, and why did the Giants acquire him from the Pirates? Was it some sort of PTBNL or did they give up someone for him?
He is a poor hitting catcher in A ball apparently. I don't get the need for him, but whatever

I AM FREAKING OUT ABOUT JOEL COLLINS
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME (for 3 days in 1995).

But poor-hitting catchers in A-ball are the best kind. As an organization, you really have to hoard those like gold-plated, copper-plated silver goblets.
Or… what exactly do people hoard these days? Playstation 3’s? Donuts?
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.
Need someone to back-up Molina and Whiteside?
Wisconsin: Famous for dairy, Ryan Rohlinger and not much else.
The guy put up awesome numbers in ss-A last year, but he was pretty old for his league.
Merkin Valdez? Manuel Mateo? A rose by any other name...
