    I'm not sure any team in baseball has what you seem to consider as depth.

    I don't see why not edited to say: I don't think they can tack on something to the contract, but they could replace it with a new one that added the option.

    I just don't see Jimenez being quite that bad either (well, maybe ERA if he comes to the AL East). I would probably put Jimenez closer to 4.00/3.6/3.75. Garza seems about right, and Santana is reasonable unless that new pitch he's working on changes things. It will be an interesting proof of concept to see how your projections fare.

    The only thing that bothers me is the way spring training was apparently run last year, and I suspect that's going to change this year.

    It's possible some of the players may have refused to go also, and when you think about it with the olympic testing standards for performance enhancing drugs being much stronger, that could also be a factor with some players not going.

    I don't mind the shootout overall for regular season games, but I think the overtime period should be 10 mins instead of 5.

    I think that depends whether the 15M is allocated elsewhere or not.

    Bernier with the toque on top of the goalie mask is pure win

    Amazing job on the anthems.

    Apparently Jimenez is asking for 17 to 20M / year. I don't think he'll quite get that much, but I doubt he gets less than 15M per (which I'd be okay with). As much as Tanaka is holding the market up, I think the Yankees are too with the A-Rod situation. If they can't stay under the cap, they'll probably sign at least 2 of the starting pitchers.

    Winter classic is starting for anyone interested (with snow coming down). Should be an interesting game.

    Keep in mind JFaS is a Flames fan

    It would be nice if they didn't rotate through so many in a game too. I'd like to see a rule come in that a pitcher either has to face a minimum of 3 batters, or has to get the final out of an inning before they can be replaced. Put an end to this nonsense teams are doing using sometimes 4 or 5 pitchers an inning.

    Man that Chacon season was bad. 6.31 xFIP, 7.11 ERA, 7.39 BB/9, 1.942 WHIP, and still put up 35 saves lol. How the hell did he keep his job that long to even manage that?
  15. Abomination
    Yeah, that was horrific. I might have to go with Chacon though in 2004.
  16. Abomination
    I think my vote might go to Kimbrel in 2012, who somehow managed a 0.88 xFIP and 0.654 WHIP (only 3.9 hits / 9). He and Gagne are the only two in the discussion though imo.

    If you're mixing up the different kinds of fastballs, I'm not sure you would have to. You'd just have to stay unpredictable with overall pitch selection between the fastball (all kinds) and off-speed stuff.
  18. Abomination
    Heh, now there's a list no one would ever have picked (rolls eyes). Percentages are interesting on the 4-seam. I've always felt that pitchers shouldn't limit themselves to one kind of fastball. Use the 4 seam high, sinker low, 2 seam and cutter in.

    It seems like AA knew about the trade well ahead of time (and indicated most GMs did if I remember right). He seemed clearly frustrated, and said something along the lines of Dombrowski having something very specific in mind as a return, and that the Jays didn't have those players he wanted. The point is, it seems that Fister WAS shopped at least to some degree and Dombrowski had clearly talked to a lot of GMs about it, so I don't buy that this had anything to do with AA. He simply had a specific return in mind and wasn't going to take superior packages over what his mind was stuck on wanting imo.
  20. Abomination
    Looks like a pitcher that throws in the low 90's. Can't easily find anything else out.

    I bet there's probably a university or two with at least one course on hunting it. It's astonishing what some high end universities get away with offering these days
  22. Abomination
    I hope you learned your lesson

    Interesting linked article at the bottom of that one saying that Hayhurst and Morris won't be back next year.
  24. Abomination
    It is the origin, the constructs creating it are outside the structure of our universe (I think). Anyhow, back to topic
  25. Abomination
    I think I tried to answer that earlier in the thread, but I'm not 100% sure I got it right.
