  1. I have no idea why Alford would even be mentioned here. You guys just wait to see where Radioscouts.com ends up ranking him.
  2. Right, I misread that as you saying they were both going to miss. My bad.
  3. Fair enough. I just wanted to start a conversation in my usual confrontational, contrarian way.
  4. Totally analogous, because 8 year olds are the same as pro athletes
  5. Huh? If I were to guess, the 7 would be Vlad, Bo, Jansen, Pearson, Pardinho, Smith and Groshans.
  6. If we're going that route, why not just combine the waiver draft and the milb draft? Advantages: - One draft instead of two with a lot more interesting talent - rather than picking freshly drafted dudes, gives them some time to accumulate data so that owners can make a more informed decision - presents an interesting dilemma between going after that prospect you really want or grabbing a nice relief arm that would help you right away - eliminates largely arbitrary debates on who should be eligible for which draft - likely speeds up the draft since there will likely be more owner interest and investment. Disadvantages: - if you really love drafting, I suppose losing a draft is a downer - if you feel like you've got the inside edge on a new draftee, you have to wait for half a year where he might get noticed by more people. I just feel like this will make things a bit more streamlined.
  7. I know, which is why I thought it was silly to knock Vlad for not speaking them.
  8. Punjabi, English and Cantonese, in order imo
  9. "Excuse me sir, this is a no fun zone. Please leave the area."
  10. Well, in that case, Brownie should have leapt on to the ice to deliver swift justice via his fists to those refs who were ruining childrens' lives by not being NHL caliber and probably just doing it for fun/a little bit of extra money.
  11. So...then he should have made it this far?
  12. Also, to your earlier point, no, he won't be in the MiLB draft because he'll have debuted before then and he won't be on waivers because I'd guess he'll be in the system to start the year, so...
  13. Yeah, I read it, thanks. I was appealing to the fact that it doesn't make sense in this case. Why does it matter if he's 23 vs. 22 but going to be playing in the majors right away in either case? Not questioning weird rules is for peons.
  14. Everyone but Sonny Gray because a) he has to play for the Reds for the next 4 years and in a more literal sense he doesn't win because he suxxxxxxxx
  15. Have you considered that it's a meaningless game and that your kid isn't headed to the NHL? Try to relax and hopefully don't jump on the ice and start bearing the s*** out of people.
  16. Considering he's likely going to be in the majors right away, seems like he should be an exception
  17. No, I think that's correct. The strike zone boundary is always the same, just the interpretation that's different. It was a fair analogy.
  18. Is Victor Victor eligible for the waiver draft?
  19. I'm willing to move clozur Felipe Vazquez or some other sheet for a top 2 waiver pick.
  20. Shed Long to f***ing Seattle. Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    NFL Thread

    Yeah I don't get the Brady hate either. I'm not a big NFL fan but he's been basically the LeBron James of football for almost 2 decades. He's 41 and still leading his team to contention. If not the best QB of all time, he has to be top 3.
  22. Either football or basketball. Voted basketball because the calls seem much more arbitrary and they generally don't use replay.
