Faux Interview - Chris Iannetta
Apparently the first edition of Faux-Interview went great. Well, to be honest, I don?t know. I think it went great. No one really said it went great. I think it did. But what do I know. WHY MUST MY DAD BE RIGHT!? Anyways, I got a chance to not speak with Chris Iannetta.

Deep Thoughts On the Angels Trade For Chris Iannetta

Iannetta Great Move By DiPoto

For some reason, the Rockies were never fully invested in Chris Iannetta and after several testy seasons have basically let him go for a song. Meanwhile, the Rockies...
