Confirmed. In the end I couldn't wait for J4L to get into the league and max value for Gore. I know no one will like this trade but I'm good with that.
I actually spit out my water when Alan said "it's really annoying that these places exist...these place are Italian Restaurants"
For the record I love Michael's Backdoor. The restaurant is excellent too.
FBI opens investigation into the corruption in International baseball. Carryover from the Braves stuff. There are plenty of people in baseball worried right now.
Neither does Kang.
I know that we have the opportunity to pick up dropped players from the playoff teams...Anyone dropped Saturday would just clear waiver Wednesday. I have zero issue with a pick up happening at this point or right through to the end of the MLB season
For those of you that buy in to Pre Season hockey...the 18 year that was the best player on the ice for the past couple Habs and Leaf games is available in a trade. Kotkaniemi is available. Looking for a top line forward with multi position eligibility for him. I'm in zero hurry to make a move so only offers that blow me away will get a response
At least the other two were trying to say "WAR is a pretty good judge of who is best". I couldn't figure out what the discussion was about as I looked it up yesterday and Yelich was more than a win up on Cain. Turns out that on rWAR (or bWAR if you prefer) has Cain at 7.0 and Yelich at 6.6. I don't know if ESPN has a deal with BRef but it just makes a legit argument for people to discredit WAR as a measure when there is s*** like this. I'm sorry you can never convince me that Lorenzo Cain's defense is 3 wins greater than Yelich. Freeland is a full 3.8 wins better on rWAR too.
In the end his argument was right..you don't need a WAR calculation to know that Yelich has been better this year. He just had to bring Cain's super low RBI's up.
