    That's the right call on that play. Surprised it was made though.
  2. Abomination
    The whole team isn't sharp at the moment. Soooo many mental errors tonight.
  3. Abomination
    Imagine if Estrada could somehow teach that changeup to Sanchez?
  4. Abomination
    Clearly even if he came back from this one, he was probably only a year or two and another operation away from ending it anyway. Makes sense for him to retire.

    I seem to remember getting laughed at for taking Wil Myers that high.

    Depends whether you had the #1 pick or not

    I'd like to see Gibbons have a better replay challenge record, but he's not the one actually looking at the video. He also seems to waste one occasionally to stick up for his player when they're sure they're right. As far as one run games go, I think that has more to do with our personnel. We have a lot of guys who take big swings, and when you're playing for a single run against high end relievers that may not be the best fit. I think the only real issue is some of the weird lineups he posts on occasion.

    This is interesting regarding innings limits and current research: http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/doctors-research-opinion-sanchez-situation/

    Seeing A-Rod meet those financial milestones would have been nice as a big FU to the Yankees. I think even better was him torpedoing the Yankees this year though.

    Someone would give him something for them before it came to that.
  11. Abomination
    Confirmed
  12. Abomination
    That one clearly wasn't intentional, but the Royals sure seem to do a lot of that.

    I really, REALLY dislike contraction. The hockey league was a different set of circumstances.
  14. Abomination
    I love Sano and Yelich, but that seems like a really, really steep price to pay to get them.
  15. Abomination
    s***, I missed it too in the BBDL. I could have sworn I put him in the lineup last night.

    They probably should have done this several starts ago if they were going to, but I think it is a realistic solution. Hell, they could possibly even do this AND move Sanchez back a day or so every start. That would have the effect of giving all of the starters some extra rest via two short starts prior to the playoffs. Another partial solution might be to alternate Sanchez between a full start every other time out, and a single 3 inning appearance from the pen in between. That would keep his pitch count up but innings down at least a little.

    Moss and his .943 ops is available.
  18. Abomination
    Baltimore has a pretty easy schedule over the next week too.
  19. Abomination
    Yeah, Phuket and some of the tourist areas were pretty nice.

    I've been to Thailand. I was fairly young, so don't remember everything. Things of note: 1) It was jarring seeing so many people begging in the streets in Bangkok (I think it was leprosy that was an issue for many of them). 2) The cab drivers are f***ing insane. We literally got air off a couple bridges at about 150 kph. 3) The trainers putting on alligator shows have short lifespans. 4) You could get amazing deals from the street vendors in the tourist areas. 5) I remember seeing the hotel we had stayed at when the tsunami footage was being shown on the air.
  21. Abomination
    Got a gift call there. That was clearly a ball.
  22. Abomination
    Astros pitchers at home: 9.05 Astros pitchers on the road: 7.9 k/9 Definitely could be something to no one being able to pick up the ball.
  23. Abomination
    Stro threw 166 innings in 2014 (at least). Teams don't seem to be as concerned with it in instances where they miss one year if they've already built up to it in the recent past (who knows if they're right or not).
  24. Abomination
    Even if he is piggybacked, a deeper playoff run could push him over 200 innings if he starts. They probably would have needed to do it several starts ago if they wanted to go that route. It kinda sounded to me (reading between the lines) like the plan is to use him judiciously in bringing him in for multiple innings when protecting an important lead.

    If anyone is interested, you can pull a lot of the data yourself. This is today's game for example (subject to usage restrictions): http://gd2.mlb.com/components/game/mlb/year_2016/month_08/day_02/gid_2016_08_02_tormlb_houmlb_1/inning/inning_all.xml
