Wow, that's stacked!
-
Mine is pissing me off too. I wanted a decent shot at the #1 pick, and expected to be competitive for it this year. Unfortunately, I'm too honest to deliberately tank, so I actually set my lineups. Another good week and I might actually be buying at the deadline...

If Smoak hits his Steamer projections, he should be fine (or at least playable). For whatever it's worth, this career road numbers are almost exactly his Steamer projections, so it's not far fetched (especially when you consider the number of extra games he played in Oakland and Anaheim). If he sucks, we can rotate guys through the DH and probably get similar production. Really not a big deal. As for A-Rod, he has 10/5 rights. Who knows if he'd even be willing to waive them to be a DH. He might prefer to sit back and tick off the Yankees lol. If he was willing to, and the Yankees paid all but like 1M, maybe. edited: Oh god, I'm agreeing with TwistedLogic...

How the hell is my team .500?

They'll be calling Prince Fielder Jhailyn lite

You're right, it was a crazy play.

Unless someone else has bid quite a bit more, it seems weird that he'd be having to think about it so long if that kind of offer really is on the table at this point. I guess we'll find out in the next day or so. -
If I didn't have the goal tending stats wrapped up this week, I'd be rather pissed at my goalie playing the entire game and only facing 10 shots. Seriously, how does that even happen? (oh, Buffalo)

Maybe women aren't his thing. I'm sure Ang can find something more suitable for him. -
I bet two hours ago you were happy about Greiss getting the start...

I'm pretty sure that's true of everywhere (or at least the places with a local tax). -
There's a lot of games tomorrow. Way too early.

I'm not sure how much they actually do, but if he comes cheap enough they could trade Cashner for likely a good haul and keep Shields. -

Apparently the two sides are now at an impasse, only an hour after it was reported to be a virtual lock. I think the only thing to read right now is that both sides have some interest (along with likely a few other teams). Everything else is just click bait. -
Apparently Silver is thinking about changing the playoff structure so that that top 16 teams make the playoffs.
-
I get the impression someone is really happy about that...
-
Nothing wrong with that. Most people don't like a lot of my trades either (often you). I have a tendency to look to give up a return that I think is fair based on my valuations, but often don't take into account the market value of the asset enough. I think you did a bit of that here.
-
That's being pretty kind in the analysis I think. Bird is certainly intriguing, but that return seems extremely light.
-
How crazy is it that both teams have had 20 point leads in this game?
-
Agreed. Could you imagine if Bautista played basketball instead of baseball?
-
Some of these fouls (both ways) are a little questionable.

The thing is, that's the kind of player you're generally talking about for a 4th outfielder. In fact, both may very well be above average 4th outfielders. It would be nice to have a DH or 1st baseman who could also play the outfield (or, you know, a Zobrist), but barring that we could do a hell of a lot worse than what we have. -
No point in JV faking that shot if he never actually takes it.
-
Well, he IS 39 (almost 40), doesn't move well to block balls in the dirt anymore, can't run, and can't hit. The only thing he really brings is experience and framing, and I'm not sure either make up for the rest anymore (it did at one time).

I'm a little concerned about it, but AA can probably find a AAAA player (someone's gotta play outfield in AAA) that could step in if more than Pillar was needed. Damn, that's a lot of A's.
