Laika Community Moderator Posted June 12, 2015 Author Posted June 12, 2015 WTF is Joe Maddon's problem with Hector Rondon? He keeps dicking around when Rondon has really done nothing that should jeopardize his closing job. They also keep yanking Wada after ~4 innings and ~60-70 pitches. Presumably before he can go through a lineup for the 3rd time. I think maybe it's all progressive, sabermetric ********. Like, Travis Wood vs. a lineup for the 1st time is ALWAYS better than Wada vs. a lineup for the 3rd time, so they do it. And traditional closers obviously aren't SABR at all.

SpeedyGose Verified Member Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Todd Frazier is good at baseball!! Pretty sick of him tbh
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Los Osos Blancos adds Billy Butler. Enjoy. Probably a short term tryout; really I just had a roster spot to play with after cutting bait with Greene. Maybe Butler can heat up and out-hit Papi for a month, at this point that would really only require something like .320/.400. I do agree with your decision to rid yourself of him, I would have done the same if I owned him for the last year.

Talent doesn't usually disappear that fast. Man though, he's been tanking my Util production for almost 900 PA now. Such a strange decline.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Rotoworld on Carlos Carrasco: Carlos Carrasco lost for the fifth time this season after serving up five runs in four innings Sunday versus the Orioles. Advice: Carrasco was victimized by Adam Jones for a solo home run in the first inning, then settled down until the fourth. Then, the Orioles mounted a rally with two outs, loading the bases on two singles and a walk. They plated three runs on an infield single followed by an outfield single. Carrasco started the fifth inning and allowed a leadoff single, ending his afternoon. Reliever Nick Hagadone allowed Carrasco's runner to score. Overall, Carrasco yielded seven hits and two walks while striking out three. He hasn't had the same magic he showed last year, as illustrated by his 4.35 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and 77/17 K/BB ratio in 68 1/3 innings. He'll try to redeem himself in a weekend start against the Tigers in Detroit. (Rotoworld.com) 2.78 FIP/2.85 xFIP. Really "lost the magic" there rotoworld. Please feel free to go an inch below the surface at any time, thx.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 I wonder who writes those/how much they earn etc... I'd love to do that as a second job if it paid well.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 I liked the part where they cited a 4.5 k/bb as a reason he hasn't been that good.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 God I'd love to do that. "Mark Appel continued his disappointing season last night, giving up 4 runs on 8 hits in 5 innings, walking 3 and striking out 4. He suxxxx. LOL Boxy".
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 "Mark Appel continued his disappointing season last night, giving up 4 runs on 8 hits in 5 innings, walking 3 and striking out 4. He suxxxx. LOL Boxy". You own him too, *******.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 You own him too, *******. Right. f***.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Writing for Rotoworld would be so easy because literally anything you write is more useful than what they are currently rolling out. For example, if you wrote about Carlos Carrasco, instead of pointing out that he's been pretty unlucky and it's a good time to buy low, you could just write about what you had for breakfast and that would be more useful than saying Carrasco sucks because ERA. Or, since you're not really making any kind of meaningful analysis anyway, save time and energy by writing "Carrasco suxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Carlos Correa is a goddamn monster.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Carlos Correa is a goddamn monster. No walks yet? Yuck.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 No walks yet? Yuck. North, is this a real life post?
