In Salt Lake, because you took my job.

I really thought the sensativity in making such a move was the reason it wasnt done in the 1st place.
They gave the older bro a shot to redeem himself and his position.
Im sure the brother factor played into their rediculous line of thinking.
Maybe they could have ended up with both bros in the rotation
It was a nice humble thing to do, especially in this day of business is business, but all these pros have to know you either do it or they get someone else who can, and Jared was doing it like an ace.
Jeff was not getting it done--not by a longshot.

Now maybe the Angels will completely pull their heads out of there asses and do something in terms of getting rid of Kennedy and call Kendricks up.

For awhile there, I really thought LAA was looking for ways not to win.

That's nice, Zvon, but not sensational enough. Headline of tomorrow's fictional LA Post:

Brother F**ker!
Jared Up, Jeff Out Of Work, Mom Heartbroken!

It's kind of like the movie Johnny Dangerously, when one brother prosecutes the other and convicts him. When asked for a comment, Ma Kelly matter-of-factly answers that she was, "Happy for Tommy, sad for Johnny."

Jeff gets paid either way, right?

"Hi, Mom. Great news, I'm going to the bigs!"

"Oh, honey, that's wonderful. I'm so happy, I... Wait, I have another call, can you hold?"
