    Post an ad on Kijiji New York. Some fat rich Yankees fan must want to see Tanaka's MLB debut badly enough.
  2. G-Snarls
    Amen to that. In front of all that media... If he 7-8 IP and 1-2 hits us, will be extremely embarrassing.
  3. G-Snarls
    I seriously hope (and actually expect) to see more disciplined at bats from the team this year JPA and Boni are gone. Lawrie is maturing. Reyes, Edwin and Bautista rarely go down easy.
  4. G-Snarls
    High end talent and dependable? That's you in a nutshell bro. LOL.
  5. G-Snarls
    The offense is gonna have to produce
  6. G-Snarls
    Brutal And damn but I wish we were in the AL Central
  7. G-Snarls
    The more I think about it There is definitely some truth to his point. when I think "ace" I think killer stuff and dependable. Not the frustrating guys who show flashes of brilliance but keep breaking down. Slide me part way to moogy's point that dependability is part of what makes an ace an ace. But you need killer stuff and results first before I'll even consider you might be an ace.

    I was It's not the best stat obviously but neither is it meaningless
  9. G-Snarls
    Obviously it gets skewed by one bad inning. We know that. It just looks ugly that's all.
  10. G-Snarls
    Yeah gotcha. Thanks. s*** happens of course.
  11. G-Snarls
    No I didn't know he'd been that bad. Yes it's a SSS but with only 10 days till opening day you don't want your planned starters getting rocked every outing.
  12. G-Snarls
    Gotta hate pitchers. LOL
  13. G-Snarls
    Stroman 14.46 ERA FFS LOL
  14. G-Snarls
    Holy f*** Anthopoulos maybe you should have signed Garza or Santana?!?!?!
  15. G-Snarls
    Need Farrell back obviously
  16. G-Snarls
    Just looked at box score. who the f*** gave up 9 runs in the 5th?
  17. G-Snarls
    Now that I type that we have too many question marks both in the rotation AND among the backups. It's not good.
  18. G-Snarls
    Yep. If you have 3 Morrows in the rotation you probably need 5 backups. If you have 3 Buehles in the rotation you can probably get by with 3 backups. (Gross numbers grossly guestimated)
  19. G-Snarls
    Touche That's the GM's dilemma. and why guys like JJ and Anderson are living year to year rather than longer extensions. You want a guy with high end potential. You just don't want to give injury prone guys 4-5 years at a time.
  20. G-Snarls
    At risk of egging moogy in to a long useless discussion... The term ace is not really defined obviously. Being what people would consider an "ace" is more about ability than durability. Way more. Sure, you want good pitchers to log more innings. Obviously. An ace caliber starting pitcher who is also dependable is the most valued commodity in all of baseball because those guys (Felix, Kershaw, Verlander) are so rare and hence they get the mega bucks. Deservedly. The question for a GM can become what do you want in your rotation - an ace quality starter like Strasburg who has been breaking down a lot - who should pitch really well when there but might give you 80IP or 180IP. Or do you want a reliable mid rotation starter who's a workhorse who never misses time. Both ace talent and dependability have value. You might not want 5 Strasburgs in the rotation if the backups are all terrible. And no one can afford 5 Kershaws. So you mix and match and you need depth, more so if you have fragile guys like Morrow.
  21. G-Snarls
    Holy semantics batman
  22. G-Snarls
    Braves, Phillies have had such rotations at different times Nice luxury to have
  23. G-Snarls
    Agree Ervin Santana and Mark Buerhle always log 200+ innings. doesn't make them the least bit more ace like.
  24. G-Snarls
    It all sounds great on paper...
  25. G-Snarls
    Exactly. He's only the number "5" starter for schedule purposes. This does not mean they think he's the 5th best starter on the team. (Though I worry he could turn out be despite previously being a big Morrow fan)
