Cruz sent down, not happy

So goes prospects in Baker town.

Juan Cruz was demoted to Triple-A Iowa after Thursday's game, a move that angered the 24-year-old pitcher, who had an animated discussion about it with pitching coach Larry Rothschild.

He has a right to be angry. He doesnt deserve to be sent down. We all know who deserves it....

Estes' 5.48 earned-run average is the highest of any NL starter. He also leads the league in most baserunners allowed per nine innings at 15.6 and has the third-worst strikeouts-to-walks ratio at 1.25.

You tell me whether Cruz should be upset or not?

Baker said he wasn't sure about skipping Estes' start but referred to him as a "recipient of misfortune" due to some errors behind him. He said he was not "dissatisfied" with his enigmatic left-hander.

"I'd be dissatisfied if he didn't have the stuff," Baker said. "Do you get frustrated sometimes? Yeah. Dissatisfied? No. He's frustrated. You can see it because he knows he has the stuff, and someday he's going to get it and get it big. I believe that from the bottom of my heart.

"Look at [Esteban] Loaiza … finally he got it. Because Loaiza has always had the stuff. Boom, all of a sudden, things come together."

Is this a joke? Dusty Baker you are fool for believing Shawn Estes is going to get it and get it big. If you believe it from the bottom of your heart you NEED to be FIRED!!!!!!!!!
