Speech! Speech! Speech!

 

One random day/night last off season after lurking here awhile, I randomly decided to make this a one post account to make a smart-ass comment based on someone referring to Cliff Pennington as Pendleton. I will remain ever grateful that I said f*** it and decided to keep signing in and posting.

 

Thanks to everyone who voted for me and to everyone else here for making this the best place to discuss Blue Jays baseball. I think I'll stick around awhile!

Happy to have you Cliff! What's playing with Mike Trout like?

North and I were two very different types of disappointments. People were disappointed that he stopped posting and people were disappointed that I kept posting. Should be separate awards imo.

Most out of touch Award: Gruber92

 

Runner Up: BBBB

2012 winner: Miltstar

 

 

Some fun Gruber moments..

 

http://i.imgur.com/25eAxDT.png

 

Bautista up with runners on 1st and 2nd, no outs, tie game 2-2, late in the game

 

So all you morons think Jose shouldn't have bunted?

 

Explain how it goes against all rationale..

 

Tulo needed to be up there f*** MAN

 

He probably would have been if Bautista bunted..

 

Inexcusable managing..

 

what do you think the %odds of a successful bunt from Jose Bautista vs a hit are

 

75%

 

You guys does give Bautista much credit.

 

For all you dumb f***s that don't think Bautista has a better than 50% chance of laying down a bunt, you should all get your heads checked.

 

I'm just trying to watch the game with everyone while posting my opinions at the same time.

 

GFY you f***ing little dweeb.

 

your way of watching the game involves insulting everyone who disagrees with you constantly

 

so, everyone

 

I was enjoying myself with everyone and everything was civil until you decided to show up and started trashing opinions and started your usual s***.

 

I challenge any Mod to scroll through this thread and show me any different. It's the s*** disturbing f***s like you that ruin it for everyone else.

 

 

 

Dumbest Poster: Gruber92

 

Runner Up: Todd

2012 winner: DJBluRay

 

Another fun Gruber moment.

 

I like Fowler but a trade for Eaton makes more sense if Stroman is the center piece. Stroman + B level prospect for Eaton while stretching out Biagini.

 

Would rather sign Fowler and KEEP Stroman+ that prospect.

 

Really? Eaton is under contract at under $5 mil per season through 2019 plus two option years. Fowler would cost $11-15 more annually for the same if not lesser value than Eaton, while Eaton is three years younger. The money saved is key, as it can be used to address other needs.

 

Stroman isn't a long term SP solution unfortunately, so trading him now is essential.

 

You're assuming:

 

A) Biagini would be a decent SP (He likely isn't) In which case you have to spend money on pitching

The White Sox are willing to trade Eaton

C) White Sox would want Stroman. What if they say no and want Sanchez instead?

 

Fowler most likely will get more than that, probably 4/72. Eaton is at 3/14 plus options.

 

I'm telling you Stroman is definitely not going to be a viable SP option moving forward. At best he'll be a #4-5, if he stays healthy. JMO.

 

I find it highly unlikely that the Sox are interested in trading Eaton for Stroman

 

When you say moving forward are you talking 2017, 2018? I'll easily bet the over on him being a #4 next year.

 

Is your hunch the same one that thought Goins was going to be the second coming of Roberto Alomar?

 

A) Biagini can't be any worse than Stroman as a SP

Reported rumors say otherwise

C) If they want Sanchez instead then forget about it, or maybe spice up the prospect going the other way.

 

Landing Eaton would provide great value on a crazy cheap contract for the next 3-5 years.

 

Moving forward as in the next 2-3 years. Stroman's value will be in the pen.

 

Stroman had a 3.41 xFIP and 3.71 FIP this year, Biagini can very easily do worse than that.

 

Of course he can, but it's safe to assume Biagini will match Stroman's numbers over the next three years easily.

 

I don't think this is safe to assume.

 

How is it safe to assume that? Please explain.

 

How the f*** is it safe to assume that? Stroman has outperformed Biagini at every damn level.

 

Signature dibs

 

I'm curious to see if his explanation is that stupid ******** that Zaun spews about his height.

 

Stroman's professionalism is also a concern moving forward, although that could change.

 

Who the f*** snapchats what their drinking while in the film room? You're in there supposedly working. That's just one example of many.

 

Lol that isn't a safe assumption at all. It's not even safe to assume he can successfully transition to starting.

 

Wait so you think Biagini is going to be better because of Stroman's snapchats? GTFO

 

Gruber making a late push for the dumbest poster of the year award.

 

So who's going to copy all of Gruber's posts into the Things BJMB people Say thread?

 

Please explain how you know Biagini will do worse?

 

He might actually have just stole my worst poster vote from RealAccountant. This is like when studios release their Oscar hopefuls in December.

 

Who the f*** said that dipshit?

 

You're in the MLB, act like a pro is all i'm saying. He should focus more on his craft than social f***ing media.

 

I mean if you said because Stroman would lose velocity like Lincecum did because of their height then sure at least you're trying but this is just insanely dumb.

 

Nope. The burden of proof is on you since you made the statement. That said, how about looking at Biagini's MiLB numbers as a starter and comparing them to Stroman's.

 

Does goins have a snapchat?

 

Lol.. All this s*** was a given, so i assumed.

 

HOLY f***

 

You did...

 

Your the same idiot who tweets to athletes after they post a pic saying "Quit tweeting out pics, and go work on pitching"

 

Ahh here we go. Talking to and other people here is like talking to a Diamond and Diamond rep.

 

Nice response; no response.

 

FYI, i've never been linked to social media, ever. No accounts , no nothing. No time or patience for s*** like that. Not my thing.

 

Making bold statements about topics you admittedly know nothing about doesn't usually work out well.

 

I haven't posted here in about a month, but as soon as i just express an opinion, it turns into this.

 

Later kids, have at it.

 

Stroman's xFIP this year was even better in the second half, once he stopped with the stupid approach. 3.01 xFIP with ~4:1 k/bb.

 

Well, your opinion was absolutely terrible.

 

For suggesting a trade for Eaton involving Stroman and a prospect instead of signing Fowler?

 

For saying its safe to assume Biagini will be better than Stroman.

 

No, the "Biagini should be as good as Stroman" part.

 

It's JMO guys.. You guys need to relax a little.

 

I just don't like Stroman as along term SP solution, that's all. Leave it at that.

 

It wasn't worded as an opinion though. "I believe", and "it's safe to assume" are miles apart in this scenario.

 

He's trolling. Quite effectively.

 

Nah... it was this...

 

 

So are we going to bet?

 

 

 

Congrats Gruber! Truly deserved. There will now be an open mic period where everyone is invited to share their favourite Gruber moments.
