  1. Spittin on the verge of missing the playoffs
  2. Dinger missing the playoffs would be f***ing glorious.
  3. So I'm turning in for the first time in forever. Nice to see Hernandez get his first hit with the team. But what in the f*** is a Raffy Lopez? ?
  4. Prime Pujols was what, 80 hit, 70 power?
  5. I think there's enough potential in the bat that I wouldn't throw a Marte ceiling on him. The things he's doing offensively are very rare for someone his age at AAA. Probably looking at a prime McCutchen ceiling.
  6. I recommend acquiring decent pitchers in the offseason. I can't really stress this enough.
  7. Most impressive prospect: Vlad at 18 in A+ looking like a Miguel Cabrera bat might be in play, or Ronald Acuna at 19 in AAA looking like a 5-tool stud, but with a lesser offensive profile than Vlad?
  8. Looks like I get whichever of you two takes the division in round 1.
  9. I hope he retires. He's finished, and watching him like this sucks. He seems like he has too much pride to be one of those guys who hangs on for years after their expiry date. Also, imagine if they'd given him a 5-year deal before 2016?
  10. The FG/HBT readers are like a collection of KingKats. I say that with nothing but affection for KingKat.
  11. If I could get away with it I'd bench players through the weekend to make this happen.
  12. Baron Samedi of the Fangraphs comments section is both the hero we need and the hero we deserve. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/does-baseball-need-to-reassess-the-right-way-to-play/ ssf You’re still perfectly welcome to think Odor is a scumbag or whatever, but describing what happened as a sucker punch done in revenge for a batflip is a pretty serious mischaracterization of what went down. Bautista retaliated against the HBP(the actual revenge) with an incredibly late slide aimed at Odor’s back knee(Bautista trying to get revenge against the revenge), and Bautista got in his face afterward and was squaring up when Odor punched him(revenge against Bautista’s revenge). Baron Samedi u guys sure that was a hurricane or r u still drowning in your own tears? 42 downvotes in 16 hours!
  13. Byron Buxton likely done for the year. I'm glad I have no shares. I'm not strong enough for this ride.
  14. A couple commenters on that article said that the average fit adult male would often get thrown out at 1B on a single into the OF. I think they're giving MLB players a bit too much credit. As a fit 30-year old, I don't think an MLB OF would have a chance to throw me out if I miraculously managed to get the ball past the infield. I'd put money on me being faster down the line than the Billy Butlers of the world.
  15. Getting fat always catches up to you. Always. Don't get fat, kids.
  16. I'm really hoping they trade JD for some impact prospects in the offseason. I just don't see enough here to make them a WS contender in 2018. That said, I expect JD to be retained.
  17. Juan Nicasio placed on irrevocable waivers. Weird. Someone is getting a good reliever for free.
  18. Some names that will be available in this 4-team dispersal draft: Mike Trout Jose Ramirez Eric Hosmer Jacob deGrom Kenta Maeda Michael Wacha Anthony Rendon J.D. Martinez Justin Upton Carlos Carrasco Eric Thames Miguel Sano Trea Turner Kyle Schwarber Madison Bumgarner Robbie Ray Nelson Cruz Ryan Zimerman Robinson Cano Charlie Blackmon David Price Dylan Cease Erick Fedde A.J. Puk It's going to be very possible to leave this draft a legit title contender.
  19. The Rays should be embarrassed. They're 1.5 games out of a playoff spot, and have let Honeywell rot in AAA while giving tons of innings to a bunch of gas cans, especially in the pen.
  20. I think Coors has the opposit effect. Larry Walker might be in now if people didn't dismiss his bat because of Coors.
  21. I think I'm more willing to give the benefit of the doubt to Molina than to Pedroia and Ortiz. With the hitters, the whole 'he's a winner' argument is not one I buy. I think the argument is a bit different for Molina - handling a pitching staff seems like a more concrete and observable quality than being a 'winner'.
  22. I think Ichiro and Molina are basically shoe-ins. Molina is going to get credit for things that don't how up in the WARz.
  23. I'd like to see one of you and FeatherD miss the playoffs. Preferably you.
  24. 6. Drunks - 33 games over 0.500 7. KingFiller - 3 games back of 6 8. JG34 - 5 games back of 6 9. spittin - 5 games back of 6 I think there's just one spot in play, with GD in 10th 12 games behind 9th.Matchup to watch is spittin vs. the Drunks.
