Tercet bets against himself, loses $500

[tercet]

And you're confused as to why people call you a douche? I can confidently say nobody cares about your party poker account

 

Well I've come to embrace to being the villain on this forum over the last 10 years. First I'm an idiot for my opinions, then people offer bets to settle small arguments (then 99% of them back out bts,njh,spanky,gibbers), then I don't win at poker, I won't payout bets (yet i've given away 1k~ on this board for free), etc, blah blah

 

Whatever I do I'll be hated and that's fine.

[tercet]

I'm quite sure I've talked more s*** to boxy, dinger and jays4life19 in the last 3 months than I've talked to you ever, and I like those guys. You just have very, very, very thin skin.

 

Naw I don't have thin skin, your just an giant egotistical delusional hypocrite. Dinger was once like you, but he grew up, can laugh a bit, and admit he's wrong time to time

Genuinely curious, how much money did you make in the Rick Porcello bet?

You should play in a forum dynasty league. You would have documented proof of all the times I've been disastrously wrong. You might also find I'm not as bad a guy as you think I am.

$500 but it felt like $1,000 because it was such a slam dunk.

I don't find there's any point in pouting when you get clowned on. Just gotta laugh and own it.

Well maybe that is the case now. But for a long time on this forum your response was just to neg me for everything I said/deny you said something later. Lately your posts are 95% trolling me the last 3-4 years which is more reasonable.

[tercet]

We were all like BTS time to time, but he hasn't really changed for 10 years sigh, lolz

 

Does this forum ever have meet-ups anymore like in the JPR days?

I'm willing to bet 50 Mauritian rupees you wouldn't be invited if it did.

The last one was like in 2007 or 08? Spanky, Gibbers, Brandon_tool, his gf, at yonge/sheppard if I recall

I think there have been a few midnight meet-ups at Yonge & Bloor since then...

[Spanky99]

No BTS,NJH,Spanky,Gibbers & others called me a welcher/dodger etc multiple times on this board over 15 years. Sometimes I go 2-3 months without checking this board

 

I've never called you a welcher, dickcheese! You payed me on a bet.

[Spanky99]

I'm not like this with everyone, but considering how much s*** bts,njh,spanky and gibbers have talked over the last 10 years on this board that's how I roll now on this board. Shockingly none of them will ever bet despite talking an epic amount of s***.

 

lol... yeah thanks for the fifty bucks, dipshit.

I've met people from this forum at ballgames, multiple times since then, somewhere in the 5 to 10 realm, you sir would not be one, geek.

That's the last one I was at. I think there have been a few meetups at games... And Spanky and I hang out just to get stupid drunk sometimes...

lol, I'm not a gambling addict, cmon Jason

[AledmysDiaz]

The walks and pitch selection are highly encouraging

[TheHurl]

Spanky wasn't there. I was...2009 I believe. There have been several since then with the Dynasty players. I've met upwards of 30 members. I've also seen you in the casino but didn't bother you.

[saskjayfan]

Why is everyone so stupid and thinks he is good?

 

A free swinger that ks too much and doesnt walk.

 

OMG 20 ABS

 

 

doesn't walk....he walked twice against sale including a 10 pitch at bat and sale's walked less than 2 per 9 each of the last 4 years....what a maroon

[SaskJaysFan_2]

He keeps giving me "they can't send him back down" moments. That incredible walk against Sale, for me, was the capper. I would rather DFA Grichuk (and 99% lose him) than send Teoscar down. We still have Alford ready to go, and don't look now, but Pompey is hitting the s*** out of the ball in MiLB.

 

Also, and this counts for s*** I realize, Teoscar just seems like a really good kid. Great team player.

[BTS]

There’s an easy way to avoid sending him back: cut bait on Morales. He’s been s*** for his entire tenure and projects to continue being s***. At this point, it’s been long enough that I could see the team admitting to a $33M mistake and sending him packing.

Even if you think he is a league average bat that has some thump... we'll still have thump off the bench in either Hernandez or Grichuk. I just makes no sense having a 1B (DH honestly) on the bench.

Yeah. He made sense if you thought it was a 110-120 wRC+ DH. But a league average (or worse) DH who has no reason to play 1B with Smoak and Pearce around and runs like Pujols? That’s an anchor.

[AledmysDiaz]

Teoscar is third in the Majors for average exit velocity.

I should delete my posts in this thread.

Yeah, we don't need to outright release Morales but we should at least DFA him, he'll probably get outrighted. That's tough but that's business, and he still gets his money so I won't cry any tears for him. Those PAs are better spent developing Grich and Teo, who will also certainly produce more WAR anyway.

[AledmysDiaz]

Barker on PTS yesterday put together what a brilliant analysis on Morales, and his failure to make adjustments.

 

According to Barker, if Morales crept in a bit and moved forward in the box, he would be able to get ahead of the breaking pitches. This would leave him more vulnerable to the fastball, but since he isn't getting any fastballs anyways, it doesn't really matter. If Morales can make that adjustments, pitchers might throw him fastballs again. Him and Brunt had a great conversation about it. It ended with Barker suggesting that Morales is just stubborn and perhaps doesn't want to change anything at this stage of his career.

[G-Snarls]

Agree on Morales - He hasn't had a really good batting season since 2015, and is blocking better players who make league minimum salaries from getting plate appearances

 

It sucks, and I didn't hate the deal when it was made, but it's probably best just to dump him and eat it at this point. Trade him and eat 12/13ths of the salary or DFA him and let someone sign him for league min

[Dr. Dinger]

Barker was a garbage hitter and is a garbage analyst. I have no idea why he has a job. He's like a poor man's Kevin Millar.
