Would have been fine with burying him for a year, but not against the buyout either. Too bad it didn't work out, thought he was a warrior

If Bouma's contract was at $1.3 or even $1.5 I think he's still a flame today.

It's also got to sting when he looks at the length of leash being afforded to Brouwer

Sad for Bouma... liked him as a player but not the contract. The crushed and broken hand from the first year of the contract pretty much eliminated his value. Best of Luck Lance. Thanks for your blocked shots and heart.

Definitely thought they'd just bury him for a year like they did Bollig last year. Must need the space for July 1st

I think this has to signal that Treliving is bringing someone new in tomorrow.

Happy to see him go, I know a few people that come across him regularly and apparently he enjoys seeing concerts down at the Coke Stage if you know what I mean.

Yes, I mean he enjoys stampeding.

hmmm so the flames opted to save $1.5M this year (at the consequence of a $767k cap hit next year)....

So the benefit of this is that it gives them ~500-600k of more cap wiggle room this syear....

Seems like the team isn't done adding to the current roster....

Well at least for Bouma this is much better than being buried in the minors. He will have the full summer to catch on with another team.
