  1. I wouldn't be opposed to it if the cost is low, but I think I'd rather trade for Ethier (which would likely require basically no return and some money eaten). The extra protection at 2B would be nice however.
  2. I don't think MLBTR is doing theirs this year either. Too bad, they were fun.
  3. I'd be willing to put on a cheerleader's outfit and dance around the dugout for that kind of money. The bonus is, after the first appearance they'd pay me double NOT to.
  4. I don't think he would this time. This is probably his last contract, so moving to 1B probably wouldn't bother him once he's signed. Playing OF last year helps increase his potential fits. ... And on an unrelated note, I should know better than to click on an Ang link.
  5. I have too, and I was 21 or 22 when it happened. Took 2 years before I stopped having pain shoot through my arm from simple things like pushing open a door, let alone throwing. I was only able to throw up to about 75% for years after.
  6. I think I'd rather sign Saunders at similar money to Morales, if we want to go that route. Keep him (mostly) at DH rather than LF obviously.
  7. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get closer to 4/80, although I could see it being from a team that moves him to 1B.
  8. It's an interesting question. I'm not convinced Fowler will age well. I'm a little concerned by Cespedes drop in defense and base running this year. I'm not sure if it's age or minor injury related. I'd also love to know if his spike in walk rate is the new norm or not. If it is, and if his defense returns, and if we keep him out of CF, he'd probably provide the most value of any of the people available by a good margin. Eddie's K rate has been creeping up the last few years, and over the last two he's showing less contact and a higher swinging strike rate. That's a little worrying to me when we're talking 25M / year for someone who is almost 34.
  9. Because he's been way below average at AAA the last two years?
  10. Seeing a reliever THAT many times in a series would also have given the batters multiple looks at him. I'm sure that made a difference too.
  11. Outside of Chapman, Hill, and Jansen, those figures are WAY too low imo.
  12. Edwin might be worth 25M / year, but I'm not sure I'd want to pay that much.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Burrows get a game for the spear too (he should).

    Pretty entertaining game here in the 3rd. I'm not sure I'd call it hockey though, seems like something that would come out of an WWE owned league.

    The second hit was clearly to the head. The first was fine. And man, this year is gonna suck to be a Canucks fan.
  16. I wouldn't rule it out, but I suspect they'd prefer not to plan based on requiring that. It certainly wouldn't hurt to maybe have room at DH for being creative though.
  17. Perception and reality aren't always the same thing.
  18. Well, two years (this last one even better) suggests less of a fluke than a single year. 8 war over the last 2 years isn't unsignificant, and a move to a corner outfield spot would drastically increase his defensive value. I wouldn't pay 20 per for him, but I think someone will.
  19. Ethier would be that type of deal imo (not sure they'd give up assets as well, but may eat some salary).
  20. I think Fowler could get more like 5/100, which I wouldn't be particularly in favor of. I'd love to get him at 4/60.
  21. This is exactly why I feel strongly that this kind of thread shouldn't happen. I have no issue with banter in general.
  22. Eddie Cecil Reddick Tolleson
  23. I like King, but he really deserves a short ban for making a thread like this (and the thread should be deleted). If you don't like Boxy, put him on your ignore list. The discussion yesterday about growing the board? It's s*** like this that scare people away.
  24. People sure go squirrely the day after the world series.
  25. I think in order for the board to grow, we would need to offer more to draw people here. Many people aren't interested in regularly posting about their teams (except to bitch). Heck, the only thing that keeps activity at the current level is likely the fantasy teams. If we had a large site with the message boards as just one component (like integrating the blog, keeping a steady stream of articles on the blog, maybe a DFS site, etc), we'd grow.
