Goins mom and Gruber....that's all i got.

 

Edit: I'm dumm

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Now how the hell do we get rid of Reyes and his Cheese eating grin!

Goins > Reyes

 

who says no?

 

reyes was killing it with the bat with an .OPS north of .800 until he got injured and he played with a cracked rib, batted exclusively from the right side. That killed his numbers. He even looked better defensively early on.

Gruber, im sorry!!

[Atothe]

Speaking as an official spokesperson for Gruber, he hates all of you

Well said, Jim.

What in God's name..

 

All I have to say is that Ryan Goins will be employed in the MLB for the next 10 years.

 

He's a player.

[RealAccountant]

So if Goins is good at defense, and Fangraphs assesses player defense

 

why does Reyes have more defensive run saved

 

and Goins has negative defensive runs saved.

Not a chance in hell Goins plays on a major league roster in 2024.

Worst apology ever

[Boxcar]

So I can understand...this is a joke thread, correct? I'd assume but I've been wrong before.

[JFD]

This is a legit thread, intended to right past wrongs.

 

This board has been through some trying times lately, we need more threads like this one.

I have a hard time forgiving Gruber even if Goins becomes a star. Gruber needs to be evaluated over multiple decisions. If you want to evaluate Gruber please compile all predictions he has made, players he has loved, players he has hated, and give him a rating. Then do the same for other posters.

 

We can apply a WAR like rating to Gruber. It will take some work and we need a large enough sample size. Forgiving Gruber based on... what??

 

And besides... I just checked Fangraphs. Goins is at -0.2 WAR so far this year. Why are we forgiving Gruber?? Because Goins hit a triple last night??

 

Didn't Gruber specifically predict that Ryan Goins would reach a specific WAR??

 

Gruber gets forgiven when Ryan Goins reaches career 2 WAR per 150 games, otherwise we are applying Gruber like logic to Gruber... no way.

I'm really really sorry Gruber, but your boytoy still chews gum like a hobo and runs around like a f***ing ballerina!

Not that I give a s***, but I did say Romero would regress quickly during his prime years. That was from the old board and there is no way I can find the posts, but they're there. Also I posted some Pompey AB video around this time last year and said he'd make the MLB guaranteed with success with that approach, but I honestly didn't think he'd crack the 25 man this year, more of a September look and make the team in 2016.
