  1. I dare you to tell that to Lawrie ... actually I don't, I want to see him on the field instead of a jail cell for the next 20 to life.
  2. I don't like the idea of taking a bad infield defender and putting him on an even faster surface. Murphy does not have a strong enough bat to overlook the defense imo.
  3. I was just looking through some of the season stats. Hard to believe there were only 6 players in the NL with 100+ rbi and 8 in the AL, and only 2 people with more than 36 home runs.
  4. Yeah, it's not the first time that's been mentioned either. They say JPA has great batting practice sessions, but as soon as he's in the game he gets some kind of mental block or something and it's all out the window.
  5. One of the best one-liners yet!
  6. I think we should just cancel it for now (I don't know about others, but I haven't prepared for it since I didn't think it was going to go). Perhaps as hockey gets into the swing of things we could get it going mid season. I'll keep my team in until before the draft just in case we do get more, but I think at this point the concept for this year is a dead duck.
  7. The lineups are great if they're possible, but with some games starting at 7est and some at 10est the late game lineups may not be posted before the early games start.
  8. I suspect we may go position players early this year (depending on the players available of course)
  9. I could definitely see us on Garza / Tanaka hard. I hope we go hard after this route first and the trade route second.
  10. Just make a GDT for all the games each day. Ignore the lineups and extra info, and just include some general stuff (pitching matchups and anything else interesting)
  11. I think there's a good chance we'll see what we expected to see when this year began. Something in the 87 to 93 win area. Hopefully that gets us a playoff spot.
  12. Rosario is probably at least a year away. You never know, but I think Dozier would be far far more unavailable than Ackley. Speaking of the Mariners, I'd love to pry Saunders away from them for cheap (Michael)
  13. I don't think Dozier is a realistic option (in that I don't think he's available). Lombardozzi perhaps could be added, Ackley, maybe Wong. The problem is, I honestly don't see most of those guys as much of an upgrade over Goins / Kawasaki / Izzy, and we'd be risking them being unable to play on the turf. Cano, Peralta, Infante, Kendrick, Ackley (and the unavailable Dozier) I think are the only guys I might be tempted on, and Cano isn't going to happen. Ackley and Kendrick may or may not be available, etc.
  14. I'd have to think Santana will be qualified also.
  15. Agreed, thanks for doing this and getting us away from a million dogg aliases (plus better board features).
  16. From what I remember, the few decent relievers that did change hands did so for next to nothing in return.
  17. 3 best players? We're basically doing it without ALL our players except Lawrie and Reyes.
  18. Yeah, I don't agree with some of the WAR valuations people place around here (I think they're waaaay too high). I see Choo as a 3 war player right now, and consider that to be worth around 15M (5M / WAR). On top of that, I don't think he's going to age well, and would be shocked if he averages more than 2 - 2.5 WAR over his contract term.
  19. I'm not sure I'm comfortable with Choo at over 15M anyway, and I feel we have bigger needs in the off-season anyhow, so I think I consider that good news.
  20. They said that the season end press conference is on tomorrow morning at 11:30 est also
  21. There's zero reason to do this. We still have to pay Romero his full salary (minus the major league minimum) if we release him, so we may as well just outright him to the minors and let him try to right himself.
  22. If there's no break (or only 1 day) in between the end of the season and the wildcard games, teams can't really line their starting staff up anyway. Every day leading up to the playoff is the most important game of the season for them, it's not like they can delay a guy for a game or two to line things up or they might get eliminated before the wildcard game occurs. That's one of the big advantages for the division winner, they have a few days where they CAN line up the pitching.
  23. Me too. No matter what happens, I'll be both happy and sad at the same time.
  24. The best at his position ever is exactly why he should be in there. Who cares whether his position is considered as important or not? Edgar should probably be in too, and what about Papi if he plays another 2 years and reaches 500 home runs?
  25. Lawrie is a gamer. Good thing his shoulder got a piece of that before his mouth did.
