    You shouldn't get fired after back to back LCS runs. This season was a success.
  2. Dr. Dinger
    $500, but it really felt more like $1,000 because that bet was such a lock that I was already counting my winnings.
  3. Dr. Dinger
    I hate Rick Porcello. That's not a comment on this trade, I just hate him.
  4. Dr. Dinger
    The Beltran and V-Mart deals seem like the best comps for Bautista. I doubt he'll get the same AAV as Beltre, who is a comparable hitter but still an elite defender. I also kinda feel like Beltre gave a bit of a discount on that deal.
  5. Dr. Dinger
    What the hell? It's sunny and 16-17 c. There's no reason not to have it open today.
  6. Dr. Dinger
    Why is Upton DHing and Bautista playing RF? I get that Upton will probably only play a few innings, but I'd still rather have him start in the OF even if Saunders is coming in mid-game. Bautista is no better than Saunders defensively (ie they both suck).
  7. Dr. Dinger
    Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd probably move Carrera back to leadoff and drop Bautista down to 4/5. Carrera sux but he's seeing the ball well and spraying line drives right now.
  8. Dr. Dinger
    Exactly. If Upton gives us the better chance to score early off an average lefty, you start him. If we are in a situation where we need to score off Andrew Miller, we're already dead and buried.
  9. Dr. Dinger
    Barney > Goins Upton > Saunders Zeke is a must-play right now.

    I would probably just keep Sanchez if I were him. He's already got 2 elite aces + Rich Hill + Hamels + 3 ultra-elite closers. He already dominates pitching to a point of overkill. There is a point of diminishing returns, and Sanchez could himself be an elite fantasy catcher.
  11. Dr. Dinger
    I don't think silvergun is in any position to trade Gary Sanchez right now unless he has a deal in place for a replacement catcher. Ramos is going to miss half the season at the very least.
  12. Dr. Dinger
    What Cecil did in low leverage situations throughout the season vs how he's performed this postseason are two very different things. In his first two postseason appearances, he faced one lefty and walked him both times. He's not in the circle of trust right now.
  13. Dr. Dinger
    My guess exactly.
  14. Dr. Dinger
    Yeah, or at least make the Indians play the series without Carrasco, Salazar, and Brantley.
  15. Dr. Dinger
    I wouldn't say he's done "f*** all" exactly, he's got 2 big home runs and is our franchise playoff HR leader.

    Personally, I would really love to see Reed succeed, since I traded Roberto Osuna for him in BORED. I'm not so much worried about his results as I am worried about his lack of contact. But to your point, Reed's numbers are a lot like Anthony Rizzo circa 2011.
  17. Dr. Dinger
    Unfortunately AJ Reed has sucked a giant knob and will probably start the year in the minors. Word is Houston may make a run at Encarnacion or move Gurriel to 1st next year.
  18. Dr. Dinger
    vetoed
  19. Dr. Dinger
    Damn, just 2 starts short of eligibility. He'll probably get it pretty quickly next season.

    Managers don't usually get fired after coaching their team to back-to-back LCS's. I guess it could happen but I definitely don't see it as a probability. People can harp on Gibby for his bullpen management, but actually I think he's done about as well as he could with the options at his disposal. The one thing I didn't like yesterday was pitching Brett Cecil against righties in a critical spot, that was pretty bad. Credit to Francona for using Davis as a PH against Cecil (Davis has great career numbers against lefties), and Gibby didn't want to pull Cecil after one hitter. Other than that, Gibby has been open to some very non-traditional things, like hitting Bautista leadoff and Donaldson 2nd. 90% of MLB managers would bat Donaldson third and consider it heresy to put him anywhere else. I agree with Grant that I would like to see more H&R attempts at the bottom of the order with the likes of Carrera, Pillar, 2B, in situations where we can afford to (or need to) take a risk.
  21. Dr. Dinger
    I have my 3B now! You lost a buyer.
  22. Dr. Dinger
    GD is the one who will float ideas to you that go nowhere this offseason
  23. Dr. Dinger
    Andrew Miller's FIP this postseason is -0.63. He has essentially thrown a 20 K complete game shutout.
  24. Dr. Dinger
    But not for Puig, right?
  25. Dr. Dinger
    Is it too much to ask to just not get swept?
