  1. That 1.37 HR/9 is totally unsustainable! Even though he posted rates of 1.30, 1.17, 1.19, 1.50 in previous years and lost 1.2 MPH off his heater this season. I still like Shields and I think he's a fine pitcher, but he's by no means great this year, whereas Giolito has the tools to be a generational pitcher.
  2. I really don't care what numbers you use, Giolito will be much better than whatever Shields is this year.
  3. What am I cherrypicking, exactly? Shields is a ~2 WAR player this year, not setting the bar very high for Gio.
  4. Meh, if Giolito doesn't become even a 4.18 FIP pitcher, I'll be very surprised.
  5. I think Giolito can easily become what Shields is now, but the odds of him having such a good, long career are slim.
  6. Which trade was worse? James Shields for Yordano Ventura and Lucas Giolito (2013) or Evan Longoria for Noah Syndergaard and Tyler Glasnow (2015)
  7. K... but his line since the beginning of last year is .259/.324/.408. That's seriously some weak ISO sauce. Danny Valencia has been markedly better. But on the bright side, it's not like you traded two budding aces for him.
  8. Man, what happened to Evan Longoria? He's basically replacement level now.
  9. Lol, it was IE... so no. Just a fluke. I had Chrome open and IE beat it.
  10. You don't even have to beat me necessarily. I could beat you 8-6 and he'll still get 1st place if he wins 11-2, for ex.
  11. I was pretty pissed too. My friend was queued up even before me and he still isn't in!
  12. You don't get to pick seats, you just pick a section and it assigns them to you. Take what you can get.
  13. Hey guys just FYI, I opened up 4 browsers and the last one I opened got in first. So just so you know, it isn't first come first serve. >
  14. BTS has no real chance to get in, he'd have to annihilate Silvergun (which will never happen) and have North get smoked. LS has a real chance to take the Prez Trophy though.
  15. I'm really impressed with Goins' improved plate discipline. A 9.4% BB rate is pretty damn good!
  16. If Gibbons called that bunt, that's a fireable offence.
  17. WHY THE f*** DID I JUST SEE DONALDSON BUNT Wat
  18. Also, holy f*** @ Kris Bryant having a 5+ WAR rookie season. Absurd. And considering how (relatively) low his ISO is compared to his MiLB numbers, you have to think there's quite a bit more ceiling there.
  19. I just 2nd guessed myself and thought maybe Bautista in 2010, but I'm pretty sure Cargo took #1 overall that year.
  20. I really don't know if I could live with myself if I traded Donaldson for a 3rd rounder. I've made plenty of bad trades, but that one would be very hard to swallow.
  21. The Jays have the #1 Yahoo ranked player in fantasy ball. This is the first time I've seen this at any point in a season since I've been playing fantasy ('06).
  22. I will probably sell a pair of tickets to one game each for ALCS and WS (if they make it that far) to defray my costs, but I'll be going to the whole ALDS if applicable.
  23. My flex pack is 200 lvl LF, first row, so I plan on buying the same if possible. I love the seats. P4 - 200 LEVEL OUTFIELD 2 seats - $3,760.00 Down payment - $500.00 Sep 28 - $753.33 Oct 12 - $1,253.33 Oct 24 - $1,253.33
  24. Wow, that was fast, he wrote me back already. The October 12 and 24 payments will be canceled if the Jays do not advance. Very good to know!
