    Good matchup. My boys picked a bad time to clank some 3's. Can't really complain. Had my best week of the season in two categories when it mattered most. I just got beat!
  2. Abomination
    Looked out to me. I think it clanked off a fan's hands in the 2nd or 3rd row.

    I'd say the pranks have gotten kind of boring. When's the last time you saw a hot foot in the dugout? Or someone like Pedro teasing the fans above the dugout with a string tied to a ball? Even the "fake" pranks like the commercial with Sanchez and Stroman turning on the sprinklers in the ballpark (you can bet that was based on an actual prank at some point). Let them have fun and don't be a an angry old man yelling at clouds.

    Just replace everything with "*******"
  5. Abomination
    And half the board would probably do a better job.
  6. Abomination
    I wonder if they meant "opener" or "bulk reliever"?
  7. Abomination
    Wasn't that about the time Sanchez starting getting blisters from just thinking about throwing a ball?
  8. Abomination
    Maybe, or maybe the pitchers would stop grooving the ball while trying to eek out an extra 2 or 3 mph.
  9. Abomination
    Yeah, we have an off day on the 4th, so we'd only have to fill one spot start if necessary before the 8th or 9th (and that's assuming no rainouts at Yankee Stadium). Not a big deal at this point.

    There has to be something else to it. Maybe he's a clubhouse problem or something. His salary for the expected production should have gotten him claimed even this late into the preseason.
  11. Abomination
    The problem is the money. I don't think the Astros will be able to take on a lot of extra money in a trade, and I don't think they have a salary dump to send back.
  12. Abomination
    Apparently he struck out 4 of 12 batters, gave up 1 hit, had the bench (literally) call out his pitches from the dugout for the final batter, and hit 99mph multiple times.
  13. Abomination
    No, I don't know what options are available now. I like the suggestion of not being able to start a thread for a certain number of posts though. Maybe admin could turn off website links in the threads for a little while.

    Manoah will win the Cy Young. This is the new bold predictions thread, right?
  15. Abomination
    Yeah, I agree. It's kind of like a Johnsonalanotto except with offense and defense rather than handedness.

    The money on IKF might be a slight overpay, but it's fine. So is the term. He needs to be used primarily as a late game replacement though who gets into maybe 130 games a year and gets 250ish PA. Unless he has a massive breakout at the plate, which seems unlikely, he shouldn't be the starting 3B. The bat just isn't there, and our team deficiency is on offense. That's the issue. I'd rather have a big bat at 3rd who is below average defensively. Our pitching staff is elite. If the 3rd baseman coughs up a few hits here and there, they have the talent to get out of it.

    Admin is footing the bill (or using his servers) to host this site for us. I'm just really thankful that he's willing to do so.

    Davis was a plus defender last year (his first full year at 3rd rather than being moved everywhere). He's not IKF with the glove, but he's probably slightly above average both offensively and defensively. If he puts up last year's defense and the ~120 wRC+ he had in previous years, he's probably a 3 war player. Doesn't hurt that it's his contract year either. IMO the best way we can utilize IKF is as a later game defensive replacement / pinch runner. He has a ton of value in that role.
  19. Abomination
    That seems like a good fit for both sides.
  20. Abomination
    I wonder what the Giants would want for JD Davis now that they've signed Chapman?
  21. Abomination
    That's not necessarily true. It's making the assumption that he's better as a starter than the other options that are in house or otherwise available, which I'm not convinced is the case. It could easily be a negative effective return on investment. Having his late game defense and versatility available off the bench would very likely be superior to our other options though, and that's where his value could really come into play.
  22. Abomination
    It looked ridiculous when it was signed and it isn't getting any better. Regardless, the biggest issue is if he's starting. If he's on the bench, he's probably worth the money in that role.
  23. Abomination
    Mikolas is available if someone is looking for a back end workhorse who isn't completely useless.
  24. Abomination
    I dunno, he seems to have some performance issues inside his noggin.
  25. Abomination
    His numbers against righties are actually pretty potent. He'd be a nice pinch hitting and DH option off the bench as needed.
