G-Snarls

Buerhle Stroman Hutchison Then either Happ or Dickey if needed depending on the schedule and the opposing lineup

Also schools just out, good weather and holiday weekend Lots of.people.just not online

Would be incredible if both wild card teams came from the AL West. No one would have predicted that.

Reyes (3pts) - Melky (3pts) -GD Bautista (1pt) - G-Snarls Eddy (1pt) - bowld Rasmus (2pts) - Juan (2pts) - Navarro (5pts) - Gose (8pts) - Kawasaki (9pts!) - Bench (10pts) o2cui2i

The New York Yankees were apparently willing not only to eat $4.5 million of Ichiro Suzuki's $6.5 million salary, but to sentence Ichiro to spending perhaps his last year in the majors playing in front of empty Houston houses for the worst team in the majors. Poor Ichiro.

LOL Pretty sure they're the only ones for whom it's mathematically possible

I'll say Jays We're... the least bad team in the division Second half when Yankees get Sabbathia and pineda back I'm worried tho

Nobody wants to buy this team

And I call ******** on that They're probably just saying that so that a team like Miami can pretend a trade proposal wasn't real. Helps other teams save face. They don't even have to say which proposals were supposedly fictional. Leave that to other teams.

Exactly. This is fascinating.

Also, consider the fact that we probably could have gotten several other quality starting pitchers for the package of TDA and Syndergaard. Quite possibly ones who may well have performed much better than Dickey has done.

If this tailspin continues, this could be remembered as the breaking point Just sayin'

MLB is deciding whether or not to reinstate Pete Rose for the 2015 season. When asked about it, Rose said, "I hope they do, cause I've got $50 riding on it."

OMG Seriously Jose? Seriously??

Thanks, and sorry Hadn't caught up on past 24 hours of posts yet

This is likely or not likely to be team related or personal?? Melky extension? New line of smoothies? Trade for a SP? New T shirts with JB logo? LOL

Was going to post this earlier but barely had cellular Yes, players are likely to regress TOWARDS career norms, but won't always reach them, especially if they have a lot of PA/IP already banked. Will illustrate with a simple math example. A fictional player let's say has 4 years of MLB experience and has been a consistent .300 hitter all 4 years. That's his true talent level. The next year after 81 games he is hitting. 400. He's been "seeing the ball well" or had a lot of BAbip luck or whatever. Second half he probably won't keep that up. He'll probably start hitting his usual. 300 and end up with a career year hitting. 350. Or to use the opposite say he has a bad first half. Mechanics not right, getting unlucky whatever and he hits. 200. Well, he will almost certainly regress/progress (don't let me get started on that one LOL) and start hitting closer to his career norms in the second half. But he's VERY unlikely to get back all the way to 300 because he's buried himself so deep. Good chance he hits 300 ish in the second half and ends up with a.250 average and have a career off year. In neither case if the guy "due" to start hitting like mad or like crap because he was bad or hood before. In the same way if you toss a coin 5 times and get 5 tails you're still no more than 50/50 to get heads next time.

Still literally the worst outfield in baseball according to WAR As much as I hate the Sox, I did want Sizemore to have a good comeback. Didn't happen obviously.

Good idea The idiot respawn rate is way too fast

Google: Gambler's fallacy

Why do you post here? Honestly, tell me. You predict bad things to happen and gloat when they do. Why? Why come here every game just to post this venomous crap and annoy everybody? This board would be a better place without you.

Dammit that sucked
