    Why? I surely hope not.
  2. Captain Adama
    I was referring to pre-2012. Just saw that King meant this year. Pretty derp ranking by Law.
  3. Captain Adama
    f*** me, I can't wait until baseball starts.
  4. Captain Adama
    He also had Sanchez and Nicolino over Syndergaard.
  5. Captain Adama
    Lol that Cardona is still on this list. The guy is already 20 and he's not even close to getting at Lansing yet. High upside my ass.
  6. Captain Adama
    This is just your fantasy team fling. It's not true love. Whore.
  7. Captain Adama
    Did you get that s*** off bleacherreport? Or John Heyman's twitter?
  8. Captain Adama
    Hurl's reaction once he goes through this thread...
  9. Captain Adama
    I've had this bad-boy since you started posting on the old board.

    Who do you think will turn out a better career: Bundy or Bradley?
  11. Captain Adama
    I find your Ervin Santana avatar to be quite aggravating.
  12. Captain Adama
    Pretty much at the same level IMO. Same age, same level of development and eerily similar repertoires. Walker has the slightly better secondary stuff, but Syndergaard has the better control.
  13. Captain Adama
    Oh baby. I can't wait to see the results of Mike Trout's fielding.
  14. Captain Adama
    Yeah, pitchers can have great stuff sure, and doesn't always match the results. You can have hope for guys like that in A-Ball, but it's time to start seeing some damn improvement that shows up in the stat lines, especially K and BB%

    Of course, the only possible replacement is Julio Urias, who looked better than decent last year. But remember that he is only 16 and in Lo-A, but keep in mind that the Dodgers have no other alternatives, with they're payroll being completely maxed out due to Puig breaking so many bats and those bats are really expensive. It's not completely two outrageous to believe that Puig will get a broken bat splinter in his eye and end his season prematurely. The Dodgers will have absolutely know hope with him on the shelf. Of course when Urias gets lit up in his first few starts, the Jays will acquire him for David Copper, Kyle Drabek and Sean Nolin just to make it fair. Urias will become accustomed to MLB hitters and would be reasonably projected to post up a sub 3.00 FIP

    Oh Kirk, your umpire apologetics never gets old
  17. Captain Adama
    Maybe he pitched after a long night of hookers and blow. Something you should try.
  18. Captain Adama
    Umm what the f*** is up with Rasmus' stance?
  19. Captain Adama
    DAT f***ING NOSE cap filler
  20. Captain Adama
    This is honestly the stupidest thing ever.
  21. Captain Adama
    Guess those girls down in Atlanta are pretty clean...

    If I were an amateur player and one team that is coming off a string of 90+ loss seasons and offers me 1.4 M and another one that is coming off a World Series championship and is a consistent contender and offers me 1 M, I'm choosing the latter. It would definitely be an issue. Crappy teams would have to offer MUCH more money to convince good players to sign with them. I see part of your argument though, it emphasizes more focus on quality scouting and finding hidden/late guys like Pujols and Piazza, but in reality how many times do players like that come around?
  23. Captain Adama
    I just noticed this. In no way would I consider the current style of American economics in any way near "good" much less fair. It's quite disgusting really and no way do I want baseball to have a similar system of operation.
  24. Captain Adama
    I've always wondered what the attrition rates of top picks in baseball compare to other major sports, must be much higher.
  25. Captain Adama
    Disagree. If a system like that was implemented, I would imagine many top amateur players would take a large pay cut to play for an organization that is simply very good. If you're the Astos, it's probably really difficult to attract top amateur players to sign with your organization. This would cause some serious problems in regards to equality, bad teams are gonna have a damn near impossible task of recovering from a bad season. Also makes it unfair if a new GM steps in, it would be that much more difficult to clean up the past management's mess (apply this to the Blue Jays as well). If anything, give the worst team a much bigger budget to sign players cause they sure as hell will need it over a team like the Red Sox. I like the draft with the way it is, but I think the current budget constraints are rather restricting.
