No thank you! I loved hearing about how you can bean runner's in the back from CF. It really made me think.

 

There is a First time for everything terminator. Glad I could help you yet again!!!

 

You're Welcome buddy! :)

Fowler + Granderson in the OF would be pretty darn good.

 

Add Pearce and Blevins and we'd be a WS contender.

How do you hit 30 HRs and only end up with 59 RBI? Is that a record?

Hitting at the top of a weak NL lineup, though I think he got some time closer to the heart of the order the more the Mets' lineup died off. 30/59 is still pretty crazy though.

Assuming that fangraphs' stats for homeruns and RBI since 1920 are accurate, then for hitters with at least 300 PA since 1920:

 

-For players with 30 or more homeruns, Curtis Granderson's 2016 of 30 homers and 59 RBI is indeed the lowest (RBI - HR = 29)

-For players with 20 or more homeruns, the lowest RBI-HR total belongs to Chris Hoiles of the 1992 Baltimore Orioles, who had 20 dingers and only 40 RBI (RBI - HR = 20)

-For players with 10 or more homeruns, the honour belongs to Scott Hairston of the 2008 Padres, who hit 17 homeruns to go along with 31 RBI (RBI-HR = 14)

-For 5 homeruns or more, Karl Rhodes of the 1994 Cubs has the record, hitting 8 homeruns and driving in 19 (RBI-HR = 11)

-For at least 40 homeruns, Barry Bonds' 2003 campaign has that record, he hit 45 homeruns and drove in 90 (RBI-HR = 45)

-Lastly, for at least 50 homeruns, this one came during Willie Mays' only 50+ homer season, where he hit a modest 52 cuadrangulares and helped his teammates score 112 runs (RBI-HR = 60)

 

Trust me, I checked.

All this talk about OF and 1B, when will work on the bullpen needs?

 

I am all for Fowler and Granderson.

 

Not enough money, they'll try to find a couple of 'projects'.

Sorry if it's already posted. I just got the text. Jays have officially made a 4 year offer to Dexter Fowler.

 

Text from who? Are you the Bob McKenzie of baseball?

I got it as well. "Blue Jays offered OF Dexter Fowler 4-year deal in $60M range."

Fowler wants 18 AAV... they're not too far apart.

 

If only we had $8 million kicking around somewhere...

I don't need sources. If I post it, it's true! Or sarcasm which people here don't seem to get. But seriously I know people in the industry. I rushed home just to post for all of you.

Mehhh. Not sure about Fowler. I think he's more of a true 2.5 WAR player and I'd rather get Turner even if it means paying more.

 

Turner? We need an OF'er, mate!
