    I think it's called running out of ideas to write about.

    Kluber has a lower xFIP in addition to the ERA, it's not like he's just having a lucky season. They both deserve it. It'll probably come down to the last 2 or 3 starts they have remaining.

    And in other news, Raul Mondesi (the one that played for us) was sentenced to 8 years in prison and $1.27 million for corruption while serving as his town's mayor. I guess that career $66 million he made just doesn't go as far anymore ...

    Renfroe sure had himself a day. 3 home runs, two of them against Ray.

    I took Erik Johnson. JG34 is up!

    This is the kind of game where if you're a pitcher in the pen, you come up with a small, temporary ache or pain somewhere lol.
  7. Abomination
    That's what I used last year I think.
  8. Abomination
    Didn't Seattle end up bidding against themselves on that deal though, by like 30 million or something?

    Outside of Darvish (and maybe Otani), next year doesn't have a whole lot in the Ace department. There ARE a lot of back end guys that are interesting though. Aside from Cozart, there isn't much at the SS/2B area either (and you'd be buying high big time on Cozart, who will probably regress back down towards a league average bat). Zobrist would be a guy I could see possibly being available, and would probably be a nice fit splitting time at 2B and LF. Joc Pederson is another guy who I could see possibly being available. The Dodgers will likely have Taylor, Puig, Bellinger out there next year, with Verdugo waiting in the wings.

    Yeah, although we really need to get through at least some of the prospect draft too before the season starts, as some of those early guys could be direct to NHL.
  11. Abomination
    Excellent. Have to think we paid higher for him to only have one guaranteed year though (not that I'm opposed to that).

    As I've said before, the biggest thing I notice is that Bautista is hitting a LOT more balls to center and opposite field this year. From watching his approach, I think it's intentional, and I think it's the reason for his reduced bat speed. Now maybe he's doing it because of bat speed loss, and feels it's the only thing left he can do, who knows. It also seems like he's not picking up breaking balls very well lately, which is interesting as well. I know it's not a popular opinion, but I can actually see him being back next year (certainly not at his option price though). Trade Morales, get Bautista for ~5M, and let him DH and occasionally fill in at 1st, 3rd, OF. I really feel like he will bounce back some.

    Any idea why the Jays fired the manager of the Vancouver Canadians?
  14. Abomination
    Cain's DP probably ruins my chances of a perfect beat the streak card.
  15. Abomination
    He's really cut down on the umpire stuff this year. I don't think any of us liked that nonsense.
  16. Abomination
    It's been what, four years since the Rays made the playoffs? Eventually you also need to retain some guys and go for it, rather than trying to extract every penny by shipping guys out. The Rays have no choice due to payroll. It's not the perfect model you seem to think it is.
  17. Abomination
    That was a really nasty pitch by Stroman on Melky there.
  18. Abomination
    At this point, Alcides is basically Goins.
  19. Abomination
    I'm just cheering for the guys I picked in beat the streak (plus my PL guys)
  20. Abomination
    Bautista has had a big drop in bat speed this year. The part I'm not sure about is whether it's from his apparent change in approach to use the whole field more, a hand or arm injury, or just age. If it's the latter, then it's time to hang them up. If it's something correctable, someone could get a hell of a bargain this offseason. It's interesting to note that his defense seems to have improved quite a bit this year.
  21. Abomination
    Yeah, that's part of what tipped the balance between me selecting him and taking Chara. He's a good player, and I think the goals will return.
  22. Abomination
    Abomination selects active ageless wonder Zdeno Chara. JG34 is up!
  23. Abomination
    4.33 xFIP and 29 holds lol. Definitely a keeper I hadn't heard of him either.
  24. Abomination
    Think of it this way, they can only move in one direction, right?
  25. Abomination
    I kinda feel like it's Kershaw's to lose in the NL. He leads in ERA, Wins, and for saber voters (if there are any) xFIP. It's really just innings and K's that he's behind on. Scherzer and Grienke are both having great seasons and deserve some recognition, but imo Kershaw has just been too good. The AL race is much more interesting. It probably SHOULD go to Kluber, but both really do deserve it.
