Admin has ignored every request I made for it. But I recently ran some sort of an illegal transaction through my Paypal account for him so I think now is a good time to bring it up again.

I have zero clue what you are talking about at this point. My point was that Jose Fernandez if he continued pitching in the minors would have had the same likelihood of injury. As for pitch type to injury...nope I'm completely unpublished for some reason. But I have read a little (okay I listen on tape). This is one that I really like. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21335342 Here is the highlight for me.

And the 172 innings that Fernandez pitched would have pushed a close team (like many expect the Jays to be) over the top. The 30 innings that Castro will pitch does what in comparison to the 30 innings some other pitcher will give us? I won't even comment on the injury aspect of your commentary as that would have to deal with the stupidity that somehow pitching in the majors effects your arm differently than pitching in the minors.

Yep none of them made my initial sort trying to figure out who debuted at 20 with experience below AA. The debut at 20 pool is pretty small with just 141 pitchers in my lifetime (45 years) that made their debut at 20. Of those 141 only 32 had an fWAR of 1 or higher, and 89 were above replacement level. As BTS said, his best case scenario is low impact and it starts his clock and burns an option if you send him down. The positives just don't outweigh the negatives here.

Forgot about Jim Abbott, Darren Dreifort, and Mike Leake who are somewhat recent examples of player who went directly to the majors from College.

Found some pitchers that skipped AA and AAA as 20 year old pitchers. Rich Gossage (but he through 180 innings in A ball as a 19 year old first). A recent bust out Marcos Carvajal who pretty much did it in 2005 (he had 3 AA innings first), Chad Gaudin had just 19 AA innings. Julian Taveras has 15 AA IP's. It's just not easy to find.

Arodys Vizcaino in 2011...but even he made quick stops at AA and AAA along the way (then he wasn't good when he got to the majors)

I second it. I wonder what happens if I try and ban myself? I know that usually it results in me wiping shame glaze off my stomach.

You don't know that

Sable Island is a real place? I just figured it was some 90's wrestling fantasy you had.

no vehicle...he meant he lost his toe. Always trying to one up Boxy.

I've got the jump on the Math geeks on this one. Now to figure out what it all means. http://plus.maths.org/issue53/features/polsteross/time1.jpg

Trumbo in the best shape of his life this Spring...time to trade him to Boxy as back up to best shape Montero. Trumbo's increased K Rate last year was one of the most puzzling for me. My initial thought was that he was in Arizona and they probably have him first pitch swinging every AB. However, he swung at less pitches outside the zone, more inside the zone and his contact rates are up from the past 2 years.

it's the grandfather of all our current leagues. GD brought the average age down to 40
-
Sorry forgot about Aybar. I had a deal in place earlier this year for a SS upgrade that fell through.
-
All OF's. Like Ackley, Ioki, Pagan...etc. I've had success in the past using a prospect to get me an upgrade. My current worst player is Ryan Zimmerman or Dexter Fowler. I'm going a different route and will pick a prospect next round
-
No one I pick now is making my roster anyway. We only cut 2 guys so this will be our 24th man. Travis wood just went
-
Hitters realmuto, moya, daniel Robertson, Orlando arcia. Pitchers pierce Johnson, Jacob lindgren
-
Ftfy Yes I am a child. Does the ddl collectively want to pick my fc pick. I am looking at prospects who will increase in trade value this year. Choices will follow in a moment
