  1. True. I trust Shatkins will not overpay to retain EE. If someone else wants to overpay for a player on decline and give us the pick, fine by me.
  2. Hitting is not the Pompey issue. Defense and game awareness is.
  3. Boxy is awesome. I've earned so much cred at his expense.
  4. Maybe. No g/f pics, looks like a doofus, nothing to indicate its not King.
  5. the last kid was taller than me and i'm 6' future professional beggar
  6. I'm giving out chips first.... chocolate last. Hoping not all of it goes.
  7. get about 200 kids, most not from the neighbourhood... folks around here very generous handing out this year, my kid is out with her friend and my better half
  8. Just stop man. This is beneath you.
  9. Given his history, he will continue to be hurt.
  10. Bautista at this stage is a slightly above average DH. I said earlier this year he is easily replaceable. Shatkins gonna take the pick, replace him. Re-signing Bautista is illogical.
  11. Guilty as charged. Should have worded it better.
  12. Here are the options: 1) Extend JD for max $$ for 7-8 yrs (you know he will accept nothing less) 2) Let him walk as a FA 3) Trade him for controllable assets There are so many considerations here. Budget - tying down the budget to a limited # of players (Martin, Tulo, JD, EE?) leaving insufficient $$ to field a team without significant holes. Risk that Tulo range will decline and he needs to be moved to 3B? Vlad's prospect grade (A prospect? - anticipated elite, AS level)? Shatkins is going to consider all this and other things we don't know about (JD medical reports), and yes, potential JD replacements including from the farm when making a decision. They wouldnt be doing their job if they didnt.
  13. You don't think its a consideration when they decide what to do with JD? If that's what you think, you are the dumbass.
  14. What? Teams don't look at few years down the horizon? Of course they are optimizing decisions based on talent on the farm, trade offers, salary demands, etc etc
  15. Done, although sorry I will miss the trainwreck.
  16. Baseball america had age 20 for Vlad, whats that 2019? If Vlad is still looking like the real deal mid 2017, do you sign JD to a multi year potentially immovable contract that will block Vlad at 3B or do you trade JD for young assets with huge surplus value potential?
  17. I don't mind stupid. But stupid and impolite together, that's over the line.
  18. Would like to see another year of 3B of the future before considering signing JD. And if that future 3B is doing well at Lansing by the AS break 2017, and the team is middling around .500 as I expect, trading JD has to be option 1.
  19. IL works best. Todd doesn't know who has him on IL. If he gets banned he's back with a new name. How does banning help, really. IL, mate.
  20. He looks like Ortiz at the plate
  21. True. But was happy the haters was silenced. I was getting tired of arguing with them.
  22. The silencing of the Sanchize haters
  23. Yes, gibby f***ed up
  24. California December, Mexico January, Florida March
