  1. Manny's not broke, he just lives and breathes baseball and doesn't want to retire. Playing baseball is the only thing he knows how to do.
  2. The consolation playoffs are for losers of the first round of the 'big boy playoffs,' they're not for teams 9-20. Anyway, once you get in, anything can happen. It would just be bad luck if I lost and got into the consolations, nothing 'delicious.' Delicious would be my team falling apart and finishing 13th.
  3. Yep! I've sucked so far. In a large sample I think record is important on its own. That's all I'm getting at.
  4. lol. I'm not complaining, just saying you should take past-performance rankings with a grain of salt since they don't quite tell you how good teams have been in the past.
  5. Are the power rankings based off projected ROS or past performance? I manipulate my roster for each matchup enough to throw off past performance measures and I imagine others do too. For example, I sat Kemp's two homer game to lock in OBP and started a lot of lesser starters late in the week for Ks and Wins.
  6. I'll say no. I'd rather watch the players. There's no room for cheerleaders in baseball.
  7. I know just about every MiLB affiliate lol. You pick them up by reading enough B-R minor league player pages.
  8. Lyles is commanding both sides of the plate with all his pitches. Throwing strikes, getting whiffs and ground balls. Looks very comfortable out there.
  9. Jordan Lyles pitching a real gem: 6 IP, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 SO, 78 pitches. At Coors no less!
  10. Couldn't agree more! Doesn't have elite velocity anymore and walks a lot of guys. I expect a slight velo bounce-back this year though. He could still turn into a good #2 long-term.
  11. MLB.TV doesn't have a special feed for it, they don't for today's Rangers-Sox either (Monday Night Baseball). You'll probably have to watch it on actual ESPN.
  12. JP flied out. Looked like the usual Ceeb, he's not pulling a Yan Gomes on us guys. Sizemore just slammed into the triangle on a Choo triple.
  13. Too early, yes, but JFaS' stats do stabilize fairly quickly.
  14. Jordan Lyles at #18! Also, Danny Salazar is second-last lol.
  15. Yep, you're pretty good at contests of any kind. A winner.
  16. This contest is over! It was meant to be an offseason prediction contest and the offseason is over. Stephen Drew and Kendrys Morales went unsigned. jays4life19, our pole-to-pole leader, ended up hanging on at the very end to take the first Blue Jays Message Board Free Agent Prediction Contest (at least, first of the new board). Congratulations!! Rounding out the top three overall are havok24 and all-around prediction king Angrioter. These three also constitute the Part One top three: Angrioter won and was followed by jays4life19 and havok24, who tied for second. Part Three saw a different champion. Jays_fever posting a dominant 50 points as he perfectly predicted four free agents and collected points on others. Frenchsoup and jays4life19 tied for second at 46. Thanks to everyone who participated! You all did a good job, illustrated by the crowd (an aggregate of all your predictions) scoring 75 points, which would have won the whole competition. However, the crowd only scored 44 points in Part Two, which shows you how dominant jays_fever was in that part of the competition.

  17. Matt Kemp HR! Your NL MVP, folks.
  18. K-Rod threw like six change-ups and I think they all generated whiffs. That was something. Brewers take the series!
  19. May as well always pick zero lol. Navarro and 0.
  20. It's mostly luck, yes. All of the current WAR leaders can thank luck for their success.
  21. Ike Davis hits a pinch-hit walk-off grand slam!
