Big Fat Whiner -- Francisco Liriano

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3494330

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I am playing in the minors. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I want to be called up to the majors. Waaaaah, waaaaah.

Seems to me that Mr. Liriano's agent has a pretty significant conflict of interest here. He also represents Livan Hernandez. What Twins starter is most likely to be shelved if Francisco comes to the majors? That would be Livan Harnandez. SOOOOOOO, you are demanding on behalf of one client that another client basically be benched??? THAT is worthy of an investigation by whomever monitors agent misconduct.

Note to Liriano -- wanna know why you aren't up with the big club? Does 0 and 3 with an 11+ ERA call to mind anything? Let me help -- it is someone's 2008 major league stats with the Twins...............

This is akin to a guy who goes 3 for 50 at the plate for the big club and gets sent down to AAA whining that he doesn't get a call up when he hits .335 against AAA pitching. What you have proven is that you are a good MINOR LEAGUER, nothing more.

The Twins will call Liriano up on September 1 (if not before). Stop your bitching, you big baby whiner.
