Romo is a free agent who will get a closing gig. I'd give him a good chunk of cash and would be happy if the Blue Jays went after him. All of Romo's peripherals are exactly the same as they were a few years ago. I like Boxy's acquisition of him very much.
-
Here come the Giants haha -
It's an interesting risk/reward thing I guess. Gibbers is betting that three good hitters come out of Cuba and Maeda gets posted. If that happens, he'll come out having made a great deal.
-
Those guys aren't Tanaka/Abreu though (Cy Young candidate before he got hurt & elite bat in his prime). I don't like the return for GP, although as he says, something could unfold.

Well done GD. Jake deGrom is a no-brainer tho. ----- Can the FAP Contest get posted to Breaking Blue? -
I want the Giants to win too but after the Nats tie this up lol
-
Oh. Giants still have Hunter Strickland so they'll win for sure.
-
Tanner Roark is a starter! He could go 8+ innings. Lincecum could go long for the Giants. No, because I want to cheer for it to never end! Making a prediction would affect that.
-
His peripherals are untenable though. Doesn't walk, strikes out 30% of the time, not a huge BABIP guy, unspectacular batted ball profile, etc. I don't think there's anything there. I like Jed Lowrie a lot better as a cheap-ish second base option.
-
Why will they be gassed? Everyone but Petit and Stammen threw an inning or fewer, and they get an off-day. They'll be refreshed.
-
He has the tools and stuff, but it's been quite a while since he's actually hit. 2013 was the "buy low" year.
-
Roark was like a #2 starter this year lol. This game isn't going to get increasingly more sloppy as regular season extra innings games do. I was only 10 when the Braves/Astros game went 18 but I remember it vividly.
-
Such is the reality of baseball in 2014. This game may never end.
-
Eh? Yesterday's Cards-Dodgers games one of the best games I've ever seen, and tonight's is turning into a great pitching duel. Also, this Giants-Nats game has been great.
-
Somebody wants to be better at their job? It's a miracle!
-
People who think Bryce Harper is all hype make me laugh
-
Yeah I was thinking this morning that they're very similar. I'd probably take Pence for the extra R/RBI.
-
I didn't end up needing it since I swept the hitting, but Cueto (and my other two-starts, Price and Carrasco) had quite the championship week this year: 2-0, 14 K, 1.13/14.00/.207
-
Yeah I'm not in love with Pence's skills either but he racks up counting stats and never gets hurt. The needs matched up for me and I thought the value was fair. We have to be constantly adjusting our brains to the run environment. I went into the offseason thinking "I'd love to get a 30 HR, 100 RBI outfielder," but there were only four of those guys in 2014 and I wasn't getting any of them lol. Pence's 20 bombs seem a little meh, but they were good for 17th among outfielders and his 106 runs were good for 2nd. He's a productive, durable player who I'll plug into the lineup in April and forget about.

Busy morning for the Pharm.
-
Can we contact you through Proboards?
-
I meant for fantasy! They're pretty much a toss-up. I slightly prefer Belt though, projections aside.
-
Belt and Hosmer have practically identical Steamer projections.
-
Steamer FIP projections for my rotation: Price 3.22 Carrasco 3.27 Cueto 3.47 Shields 3.63 Lackey 3.63 Bailey 3.71 House 3.76 Porcello 3.84 Cain 3.89 Barnes 3.96 Harang 4.40 Need to clear some of it out lol

Pleasure doing business with you.
