    I suppose their mammae might have something to do with that... By the way, mammae might have the best definition from Merriam-Webster: a mammary gland and its accessory parts. Gotta love those accessory parts.

    Apparently the satire is just too subtle for them. They need to be bashed over the head with completely ludicrous quotes, utterly dripping in sarcasm.

    To make a bit of an analogy, I could have graduated with a computer science degree three years ago, but in my last semester, I decided I also wanted to get a physics degree. Now I'm going to grad school to get a master's, then PhD, is astrophysics. Eventually, I plan to be a research professor. I'll probably top out around $60-70K doing so. If I had graduated with my CS degree, I'd likely be making that much right now, and could have potentially made six figures at some point down the road. I chose this path because it's what I wanted to do, even though I know I'll likely be making ~50% of what I would with just a CS bachelor's. Bringing this back to making $200 million versus $100 million, some people would rather not take steroids because of personality, ethics, preference, you name it.

    A fielder has no control over where the ball is hit. Over a small sample size, this can lead to fluctuations in defensive metrics, regardless of the skill of the defender.

    All this talk of grinders is making me hungry.

    And apparently an outfielder as well. He seems pretty bright.

    If only Arencibia could walk rate as often as Buck Martinez did. Jesus, JP strikes out at over twice the rate that Buck did...

    He's been a third base/bench coach before, so that would fit. I think he was also the hitting coach for the Brewers for a year.

    That's only $133K per home run! It's a bargain!

    Hitting coach maybe?

    This is a list of all players in either league who hit at least 20 HRs and had a wRC+ below 100. One of these players kind of stands out, doesn't he?

    Alex Rios.

    We shall see, won't we?

    It's incredibly hard to predict what we'll have with Melky. There is such a huge swing in what is possible. The tumor could have been the whole problem this season, and next season we'll get a player more like he was in 2011. Or, he could really just be an old fat ass with stubby legs who can't hit without PEDs.

    I don't want him as the 25th man. And, honestly, I have no expectation for him to be as good against lefties as he was this year. I think I'm just trying to tell myself it's not going to be so bad since AA is likely to keep him around next season.
  16. kcjaysfan
    Combine DeRosa's numbers against lefties, and Lind's numbers against righties this year, and you get a .298/.380/.514 line over 576 plate appearances.

    That would be pretty awesome. If not, I may have to find a sports bar and watch with all the filthy commoners.
  18. kcjaysfan
    Dat value!
  19. kcjaysfan
    Being less s***** than before can certainly be one measure of success.
  20. kcjaysfan
    Why, oh why, did I read this whole thread?
  21. kcjaysfan
    Normalizing to Izturis, I like it! Along with the Arencibia Line, WAI should become a thing.
  22. kcjaysfan
    I seem to recall having seen the Orioles fans do that before.
  23. kcjaysfan
    Magic! Voodoo! I do what I can.

    I've been looking into getting my Canadian passport now that I'm living here again. Even as a Canadian, living in Canada, one must have a guarantor for their passport application. That guarantor has to already hold a Canadian passport and have known the applicant for at least two years. I don't like this rule.

    Let's see if post linking works on this board.
