  1. Cabrera isn't very good, so it seems fine
  2. The income tax thing is a great point, and the impact of it in the NHL has been enormous. States with no income tax have won 5 of the last 6 Stanley Cups.
  3. So the salary cap basically ruined hockey - the league is now 2-3 elite teams, 2-3 bad teams and 25 interchangeable mediocre teams. It's also pretty much impossible to compete perpetually - you need to go in cycles. And potential dynasties are torn apart prematurely by the cap. It's basically a flat league. Do we think a cap would do the same with baseball, or would well-run teams still be able to perpetually contend?
  4. I don't have a strong opinion that Jones shouldn't be in. His numbers dictate that he should be. He just doesn't feel like a HoFer to me. Probably because I rarely watched him play , and WAR wasn't really on people's radar when he was at his peak, so I didn't really appreciate how good his defense made him.
  5. Looks like Andruw Jones and Beltan will be inducted to the HoF this year. I'm usually a big hall guy, but Jones doesn't really feel like a HoFer to me. Weird that he'll be in and Jim Edmonds isn''t.
  6. Seems like they should be able to trade Schultz for something small? Optionable for two more years, handled himself in MLB last year and looks like someone who can eat innings a hair above replacement level when needed. Not who I expected to get DFA'd.
  7. Where are you guys seeing that his cap hit changes year over year? It should just be 15M per season, right?
  8. Interesting - I had no idea. That should make Jimenez the odd man out then. This team just can't roster a fringe guy who's out of options. I think there's a chance they might actually get something for him, beyond the usual cash considerations. He has a chance to be a very useful player to the right team.
  9. Has to be Clase DFA’d to make room? He’s out of options and there’s no way in hell he’s making this stacked team
  10. I know I'm in the minority, but if I had a vote and deGrom retired today, I'd vote for him. His peak from 2018 until he got hurt in 2021 was the best I've ever seen as fan. Two Cy Youngs, and an ERA under 2.6 over 248 starts is just insane to me. He's dominated like a HoF reliever on a per inning basis, and done it over 1500+ innings. I'm hoping he can stay healthy enough to pitch some more full seasons late in his career. If he gets to 2000 IP hell breeze past 2000 Ks and 50 fWAR, and I think that would get him in eventually. If he blows out his arm tomorrow, I think he doesn't get in.
  11. Looking more and more like Felix will eventually get into the HoF. And that should make Chris Sale a slam dunk, and possibly open the door for deGrom, Cole, and Wheeler if they can put a few more good seasons on the board,
  12. Merry Christmas Spanky
  13. Fairbanks to the Marlins for 1/13. He did well this offseason. Picked up a 1M buyout when TB declined his 11M option, then beat that amount anyway.
  14. TJS for Ronny Henriquez. Probably increases their push for Fairbanks
  15. It's crazy how few pop-up guys there are. I see one really good one. Usually there are half a dozen or so.
  16. Imai could still get like 150M
  17. He should plummet in FYPD's. The entire baseball world just told people what they think of his chances of success, and they're not high.
  18. Wow, no smart org believes in Murakami at all. Looks like a huge long-shot to succeed at this point.
  19. I don’t understand how the mod functions work, because I hid the post you quoted two days ago and it still shows as hidden, but you were still able to see/quote it.
  20. This is going to seriously damage Terminator’s reputation on these forums.
  21. For Jonathan Bowlan. I don't understand this at all from Philly's perspective
  22. I believe the first post in the exchange was you asking if he wears diapers, then we were off to the races
  23. You started it, he escalated, and then it ballooned into a 10-post back and forth that nobody wants to read. Stop it!
