    NHL Thread

    BTS replied to GD's topic in Other Sports

    I don't really follow NHL fancy stats. Is Abdelkader bad?
  2. BTS
    He could be yours for the small cost of one high end prospect.
  3. BTS
    Not quite sure of the relevance of this question to the post you quoted.
  4. BTS
    Dat farm
  5. BTS
    We could have been co-workers lol. So you were selected over 101 others? Congrats.
  6. BTS
    I called up Marko Dano.

    My office hires a lot of co-op students from economics/business programs, but the work they do is pretty boring compared to what you'll be doing. It's awesome that the team gets involved in that. They probably get more applicants than anyone else.
  8. BTS
    Is it an intern program affiliated with the school?
  9. BTS
    Good for you North. It's awesome that it worked out for you this year. GD next?
  10. BTS
    I'd do it.
  11. BTS
    Tony Sipp would be a good target. A third lefty to complement Cecil and Loup would really help the pen.
  12. BTS
    I'm sure the article mentions this, but he gets an elite amount of infield flies, so there are tangible reasons that you can see on the stat sheet. It's not a complete leap of faith.
  13. BTS
    Zobrist (3/42) Kuma (3/42) Kennedy (3/36) Lackey (2/30) Jaso (2/12) Lowe (2/8) Madson(1/5) Are all appealing.
  14. BTS
    I bring up Mark Lowe because I think you'd have a hard time showing that a 32-year old 1-win 2B is more likely to turn into a pumpkin than a 32-year old 1-win reliever. In either case, it would be easy to say "of course the 32-year old bombed - bad signing", but I think 90+% of the forum would give that contract to Lowe.
  15. BTS
    West, Guilmet, and Hendriks.
  16. BTS
    Would you sign Mark Lowe to a 3/11 contract? I would. And I wouldn't blame management if he bombed.
  17. BTS
    Am I the only one who had no issue with the Izturis signing? The team had no middle infielders and at the time he was as consistent and reliable as a bench middle infielder could be. $3.33M for a guy who looked like a great bet to provide 0.5-1.5 WAR in a part-time role is not too high a price to pay, and the third year was required to get him. He fell off a cliff at 32 years old, but I don't think it's fair to blame AA for not seeing that coming.
  18. BTS
    Who said that? I had no idea Jays management knew/cared what a WAR was.
  19. BTS
    Does anyone actually know what $/WAR we should all be using when we do these stupid things? People throw around anywhere from 7-11.
  20. BTS
    If you start that exercise using Steamer's current projection (3.5 WAR) the projected surplus goes from 50 to ~20.
  21. BTS
    So clearing $75M while also picking up 4 years of Grandal is unimpressive because something about unlimited funds, while taking a 1/10 gamble on a guy that anyone would have projected at close to 2 wins was a terrible decision? I'm not exactly following you here.
  22. BTS
    Entering his age-28 season with a career 1 fWAR/600, and Steamer has him at ~0.6 fWAR/600. I'll say somewhere between 0.5 and 1.
  23. BTS
    Maicer Izturis falls under the same category for me.
  24. BTS
    I see that a lot like a saw the Melky signing after year one: a zero-risk gamble on a guy that you would have projected to do well, but that didn't work out. Those are the moves it's ok to whiff on.
  25. BTS
    Ironically, that's pretty much what I was doing while posting earlier.
