not comping the players...comping the buying in on the type of hitters the players actually are based on a month of numbers. Sometimes hitters magically find "it" but often bad hitters just remain bad hitters.
Hill started huge out of the gate and slowed down that year. I was referring to Russ Adams. By the end of 2005 Jays fans were ready to forget the Michael Young trade. Followed up with a 54 wRC in 06. Just saying that considering how small the change Goins made was, it's as likely he returns to the 50 wRC rather than stabilizing near 90.
517 row 22 seats 1 and 2 sitting in my queue right now and my money man is on the road with a dead phone. Have to wait for him to charge his phone and then charge my tickets.
I really expect Shields to become Mark Buehrle somehow. The guy was shut down 2 weeks early in 2007 and hasn't missed a start since. I can see him still throwing 200 innings when he's throwing 88 MPH in 2 years.
but now it becomes a full day "TL appreciation" thread as well. If you made more dual purpose threads maybe you wouldn't be the Mods second most hated.
Min isn't a morning person. I could change this but I'll be blamed for the loss if I touch the thread title. Plus showing TRM's stupidity helps keep his ego from swelling too much. "TRM, he's lucky...but not too smart"
Yesterday's GDT debacle got the Indians within 4 games of the wildcard and encouraged me to put one more 10 spot on the Clevelanders to win the World Series (this one at 150-1)...and got TL to stop posting. I think even the most superstitious BJMB fan should say it was a big win day for the board. I just have to hope that it takes TRM two days to get back into his GDT groove.
