  1. Sad truth is we can probably only make a trade for someone good if we trade away a major league player(s) and replace them via free agency. And that's the expensive way to do it.
  2. Still love the guy:
  3. Tampa @ Houston doesn't draw either
  4. Translation 2: We already regret Evan Longoria's contract extension and we may have to trade him too. We thought we could afford, for once, to keep ONE measly, stinkin', good player past their arbitration years OK?!?!?! Throw me a frickin' bone here! I thought we'd finally get an attendance increase after putting a good product on the field every year despite a shoestring budget! The TV money won't be enough. Translation 3: Our fanbase sucks
  5. True Just ask the Tigers. Too much down time is bad.
  6. Translation: David Price will be traded this off season #BigFatArbitrationRaise
  7. This is sad: The Rays drew 1,510,300 for their 81 home games, their lowest total since 2007 (before the run of six straight winning seasons), and giving them a major league-low average of 18,646. "We budget for certain numbers and we're extraordinarily conservative when it comes to expectations and budgeting, but it was below our expectations," Sternberg said, noting that the combination of the team over-performing on the field and under-performing at the gate "is not ideal." Without getting into specifics, Sternberg said there would be an impact on next season's budget, although a long postseason run could make up for the revenue shortfall. The Rays ranked 28th this season with an opening day payroll of about $58 million. Sternberg said it was not fair for the Rays, who play 76 games against the other rugged AL East teams, to be battling with the Indians and Rangers, who each benefit from having two of the league's worst teams in their divisions.
  8. Somehow I forgot about him... He was VERY forgettable. Hahaha.
  9. Never happen, MLB likes the extra "races" Our best bet is for some central team to relocate farther east than Toronto and we get moved to the AL Central Or for MLB to go back to balanced schedules, which would still help, but help less
  10. The only absolute F's for me are Bonifacio, JPA and Josh Johnson (I'm being nice to Morrow cause it's hard to grade such an absentee) The other relatively bad years are D at worst What's league average? I'm thinking C. That's about how school grades work out I think.
  11. Ken Rosenthal has been all over this Pointed out how much easier the Indians had it, making it easier to make the playoffs http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/unbalanced-schedule-unfair-al-east-teams-wild-card-race-092213 Now the Rays brass are ripping about it too. I feel their pain. (well not really, at least they keep making the playoffs! LOL) http://www.tampabay.com/sports/baseball/rays/rays-owner-sternberg-attendance-will-affect-payroll/2143756
  12. I tried to bet BTS last year that Pujols would have a higher OPS in 2013 than he did in 2012. I'm glad he didn't take the bet.
  13. Sure. Few players cost a team more wins than JPA. Pujols not quite as bad as I thought this year (.258/.330/.437) but they obviously expected a lot better than that
  14. Albert Pujols - LVP?
  15. Yep. At least the Phillies got a World Series banner out of it before they turned in to a pumpkin.
  16. I dunno Jonn, I think you're maybe setting the bar a bit too high. Not every player needs to be Kershaw or Trout. Those are A++ players. I'd grade the majority of the players 1/2 a letter grade higher than you did, and several of them (Lind, Dickey and Reyes especially, though I see you sort of awkwardly lumped him with Kawasaki) a full grade higher.
  17. Martimes FTW!!! Woohoo! -
  18. Rockies, Mets and Phillies all won. Phew!
  19. Machado does NOT have a torn ACL "Only" needs 6-8 weeks of rehab and no surgery http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article/mlb/mri-reveals-orioles-star-manny-machados-leg-injury-not-severe?ymd=20130924&content_id=61605412&vkey=news_mlb
  20. Yep. I could actually see him nabbing the #5 spot next spring ahead of Happ and Rogers.
  21. Yeah, we kind of miss Bautista, Encarnacion and Rasmus when they're all out of the lineup. Juuuuust a little.
  22. Goins offensive failures keep adding up
  23. Nah. Mauer's OBP is too high (.404) and RBIzz too low (47). We're better off with Arencibia. #StopCloggingTheBases
  24. Actually, you know what? Despite how famous Mauer is for his hair, I'll have to admit JP's is even better. So really, the Twins should be happy to trade.
