    NHL Thread

    BTS replied to GD's topic in Other Sports

    Wow, just 2 goals and 8 points for Matthews in his last 16 games. Next Yakupov IMHO.
  2. BTS
    I think Sanchez will come in around 8M per win over his deal. We'll see what happens with Upton and Zimmermann, because those look like the only two albatrosses to me. I think they could trade Miggy and Verlander's entire contracts and get a return, and they could probably move the last two years of V-Mart if they eat like 6-8M.
  3. BTS
    Yeah, the Tigers didn't make a whole lot of mistakes with their big contracts. Who did they spend big on? Cabrera - still looks fine Verlander - still looks fine Fielder - bad contract, but they fixed it by moving him for Kinsler before he imploded Sanchez - worked out fine Upton, V-Mart and Zimmermann aren't looking great though.

    Ha, that would make it easier to carry two short-side platoon players.
  6. BTS
    It's just Shi's opinion. Not really newsworthy. I don't really see where he fits in here.
  7. BTS
    Could move one of Asdrubal Cabrera or Jose Peraza for an OF or 1B.
  8. BTS
    He might prefer Houston...
  9. BTS
    Man, that's the number one or two guy on my wish list for the OF.

    And you can cross your fingers that a lot of the defensive gains stick, because he'd be in RF again this year with Pillar in CF. I don't think Chicago would move him for an MLB SP given that they'd be subtracting from a weak area and adding to a strength, and Eaton is objectively more valuable, but he's pretty much a perfect fit for this team, both offensively and defensively.
  11. BTS
    Wait, why aren't we on board with an Eaton/Stroman swap? Eaton has five more years of cheap team control and has been worth more than 12 fWAR over the last 3 years, including a 6-win 2016. Stroman only has 4 years of remaining control, and he's a pitcher, so his arm is probably going explode anyway. I think trading him for Eaton would be a no-brainer, especially given the hole in RF. If you can shift a long term investment in a pitcher to a long term investment in a hitter, who has outperformed that pitcher, and is controllable for longer, and plays a position of need, I don't see how you turn that down.

    Great job King
  13. BTS
    Not doing one. Not my thing.
  14. BTS
    Eric Longenhagen doesn't like him either.
  15. BTS
    Any votes for David Jacobs?
  16. BTS
    Morales is almost certainly a better defender at 1B than Beltran in the OF. He might not even be below average.
  17. BTS
    I'd love to see that. Oakland making a move designed to help them win baseball games in an upcoming season is pretty rare.
  18. BTS
    Sandoval was entering his age-28 season. Cespedes was entering his age-30 season. Edwin is entering his age-34 season.
  19. BTS
    I'm not sure why you're arguing with GD. His Steamer wRC+ projection went from 109 to 112 after the signing.
  20. BTS
    He's not better than Justin Smoak.
  21. BTS
    An OF of Pillar-Pompey-Upton-Carrera has a chance to be the worst outfield in baseball. Possible sub-80 wRC+ as a unit.
  22. BTS
    Fowler Reddick Bautista Desmond Saunders Pompey

    Well, you were wrong. Typically a spot starter is asked to start one game and go back to the pen. That isn't what I had in mind when I referenced the Rays' use of Andriese this year and Ramirez last year. They used those guys as key parts of the pen, and were 100% willing to shift them to a full-time rotation spot if the situation called for it. We saw it with Mike Montgomery too, and it's a bit of a different approach to handling good pen arms. As for your comment about the forum, you've spent the better part of the last 5 years complaining that people are rude when you post stupid things. Here's a tip: nobody values your posts, so you can leave for the facebook or reddit fan pages and not feel bad.
  24. BTS
    No. As usual, you don't know what you're talking about.
  25. BTS
    I like the idea of using Biagini like the Rays have used Ramirez and Andriese. If everyone is healthy he's in the pen. If someone goes down he's the first guy inserted into the rotation. He looks like he might have 3-4 usable pitches, we'll see if the stuff and velo holds up over 5-6 innings.
