Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 At least Ryon Healy sux tho, rit?
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 At least Ryon Healy sux tho, rit? Also, Willson Contreras maybe? Always beware the Dinger pump and dump darlings.
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Author Posted April 19, 2017 Also, Willson Contreras maybe? Always beware the Dinger pump and dump darlings. Healy was the rare pump-and-HUMP by Dinger.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Also, Willson Contreras maybe? Always beware the Dinger pump and dump darlings. Oh damn! Last time I looked, Contreras was raking. Now he's at 81 wRC+ with a 30% K rate? Catchers are the worst. Except for Francisco Mejia, that one is going to pan out.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Healy was the rare pump-and-HUMP by Dinger. I bought and sold simultaneously on him, wanted to mitigate some risk. As a 1B-only with a .290 OBP though, he could quickly become a dead asset.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Ry-on By the way thanks for hexing the s*** out of Steve Pearce, useless twat he is.

Except for Francisco Mejia, that one is going to pan out. Stewart (.378 ISO) and Mejia (170 wRC+) are both raking in AA. I'm laughing.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Stewart (.378 ISO) and Mejia (170 wRC+) are both raking in AA. I'm laughing. Manaea Mania is riding a 16% swstr and 60% GB rate so I'm cool for now. I think it can work out well for both of us. I can see why you sold him though, his mechanics are whack and that's definitely a bugaboo for you.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 By the way thanks for hexing the s*** out of Steve Pearce, useless twat he is. I know you like to overreact to tiny sample sizes, but Pearce isn't going to hit under the Mendoza line all year.
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 I know you like to overreact to tiny sample sizes, but Pearce isn't going to hit under the Mendoza line all year. I'm more worried that he'll be relegated back to platoon status because of the slow start. Guy finally gets a chance, and is blowing it.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 I know you like to overreact to tiny sample sizes, but Pearce isn't going to hit under the Mendoza line all year. No you're right, maybe just long enough to help sink the Jays' season. His elbow is f***ed, his throws in from LF are worse than Khris Davis. I've actually noticed Sportsnet tends to cut away from his throws, maybe they're trying to hide it a bit. Watch next time he goes to hit the cutoff man, guaranteed Rogers cuts away to a different shot.
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Author Posted April 19, 2017 It's remarkable just how useless Bautista, Pearce, and Travis have all looked. It's like they have no clue how to hit anymore. Bautista was swinging through 89mph meatballs from a lefty last night. Pearce is channeling Tim Tebow. Travis is hitting the ball about as hard as your average 14 year old would.

Even Bautista's pulled balls are dying before the warning track. The Jays won't even be able to trade him if they rebuild at this rate.

You've really broken the story open here, gumshoe.

BTS Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Grant is once again taking shots at Boxy over the Mariners' offense in the Around Baseball thread. What a weird hill to die on. Objectively, wrong, and not only will he not admit it, he keeps bringing up how right he was.

Objectively, wrong, and not only will he not admit it, he keeps bringing up how right he was. I haven't followed the exchange but isn't every hill a hill to die on with Grant?
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 I haven't followed the exchange but isn't every hill a hill to die on with Grant? Yes, but this is a bit unique in how incredibly wrong he is. He can usually slither away but first, he ignored valid rebuttals but then today doubled down on it. All I called him out on was what he said in my signature, and since they had the second best offense last year, it's obviously false. Now he asserts that I called them elite when I never did. This guy must have a serious mental health issue. It's not normal for someone to be this disconnected from reality.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Martin being a useless tit all year bench him and he hits a homerun.... Sounds about right.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Martin being a useless tit all year bench him and he hits a homerun.... Sounds about right. So annoying. I've benched Pujols twice for sucking, and both times he went deep.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 So annoying. I've benched Pujols twice for sucking, and both times he went deep. Ya good thing I am only up against BTS.... Still looking for my first W against him.... Would be nice to get.
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Ya good thing I am only up against BTS.... Still looking for my first W against him.... Would be nice to get. The fact that I haven't lost this year is extremely embarrassing for spanky and boxy.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 The fact that I haven't lost this year is extremely embarrassing for spanky and boxy. Well i f***ing knocked off SG by some stroke of luck.... Poor guy deserves better....
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 When's the right time to call up Garrett?
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 When's the right time to call up Garrett? You're contending, and rostering Josh Tomlin. So yesterday.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 You're contending, and rostering Josh Tomlin. So yesterday. Thing is, as soon as i do he'll give up 7 runs, 5bb, with 2SO
TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 Thing is, as soon as i do he'll give up 7 runs, 5bb, with 2SO Then you should obviously trade him to me.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 Then you should obviously trade him to me. I could do that. Send me a wise offer. You need pitching
