What's with that old school s***...Bobby Cox was a master of the platoons (Buck/Whitt, Mulliniks/Iorg) in the 80's which qualifies as old school to me. So if those maroons are spouting off, their nonsense isn't even historically accurate. I should hope Buck isn't one of them. It's thanks to platooning that allowed him to get more playing time than he deserved over a clearly superior player.

 

Cat and Johnson with Gibby, it happens. We can do this.

Darwin Barney to get regular playing time vs. LHP, creating a platoon of sorts with Goins #BlueJays

 

Thank God.

At least I have one that isn't accompanied or attached with advanced stats.

 

Your just a f***ing typical casual without access and the understanding of metrics. Just another advanced stat squirrel who pretends to know the game. Try showing up in a GDT sometimes and contribute some insight, instead of lurking through it looking and waiting to make some smart sarcastic remark on somebody's opinion or comments.

they said this was going to happen to start the year.... why it hasn't happened is baffling for most of us.

Goins should be benched permanently

Why would you exclude the fact that he was a 1.5 WAR player last year? He's obviously struggling so far this year, but to take away and exclude a 1.5 WAR year from his resume is f***ing ridiculous.

 

Go back to the Rays board dipshit.

Wait, are you bragging about having opinion that isn't supported by information?

Lol.. You got to be the biggest f***ing douche in your circle of douches.

 

Yes yes, feel the anger run through you. Being wrong isn't very fun.

You mean you can't opinionate while conversing based on knowledge that was previously learned through years of experience,

or do you always opinionate based on information that was recently looked up?

 

Just STFU you dumb f*** and continue to lead..

Also, your ad hominems are against forum rules, and only my good nature is preventing you from a permaban. Check yourself. You have been warned.

Lol.. Dismissing Goins' 2015 season in an attempt to get me going is beyond childish. You're such a f***ing loser. You may as well add that one to the list also f*** wad.

Although I have been a Goins fans, the MLB is just men playing a kids game. If Goins can't get things going then maybe he can just retire from baseball instead of wasting his time in the minors.

 

Goins is still young enough that he could go back to university and do something useful with his life, like becoming a doctor for example.

 

At one point watching baseball seemed like a good way to kill some time, but the older I get the more pointless it seems.

He's a great fielder. He had 60 days of success, 30 of which were days when he was facing expanded rosters;with the bat. The rest of his time in the Majors, he has been a terrible hitter. We had a perfect example of how to carry yourself as a good fielder who doesn't hit well, his name was John MacDonald. Guess what Johnny Mac did; bunted, hustled and did all the little things. Goins almost bunted into a double play last night. That was after grounding into a double play in the seventh. That's not acceptable at any level of baseball.

Maybe you should stop watching and become a doctor?
