  1. What’s wrong with having Lourdes or Chapman leading off? Both are clearly better hitters than Espinal and Tapia
  2. Yeah just lowering the mound would fix the pitching dominance issue IMO
  3. Hell yeah. La Makina gotta take it to the NEXT LEVEL
  4. Agree with this. Everyone has recency bias… Berrios and Bo suck, Biggio is a waste of a roster spot, Ryu forgot how to pitch, Kirk should be sent to AAA, Espinal should hit leadoff, etc
  5. I can’t believe you’ve done this
  6. Cleveland and double headers, name a more iconic duo
  7. It will be nice when enough people have him on the IL and I don’t have to read his quote tweets anymore
  8. Don't label me as a hater plz. I liked the trade and love the contract. He's a great fixture for the rotation as a #2/3 guy.
  9. Of course he's good, I never said he wasn't. If you click on that fangraphs link Spanky posted and sort by innings pitched, Berrios is #6. He's a workhorse and that's valuable. I just don't consider him an "Ace". Like if there was a mock fantasy draft of just starting pitchers, he's definitely not in the top 20. But anyways, we're just arguing about the term "Ace" which we clearly have different opinions on.
  10. His value is tied to his health and amount of innings he’s pitched, much like Mark Buehrle. Gotta stop quoting cumulative WAR totals, he’s not better than a lot of the pitchers below him on that list that have only been around for a couple seasons (Bieber, Burnes) or guys that have had injuries (Strasburg, Severino, Paxton, Syndergaard, Flaherty, etc)
  11. Yes. Guaranteed you will have some posters come and argue he’s an ace in a few minutes.
  12. Nuts. How do the Phillies consistently have the worst pen in the majors. Wonder if Bryce ever sniffs the playoffs again or if this is a new Trout situation. Mets will be spending like Yankees 2.0 for the next while and the Braves are a solid young team.
  13. Yeah he’s more Mark Buehrle than Max Scherzer. Not necessarily a bad thing, he’s just not really Ace/#1 quality.
  14. The difference in this game was a couple of s*** hits by Cleveland in that 5th inning… Ah well. Get em tomorrow
  15. Jays wearing the baby blues way too often IMO
  16. Wow nice to have a 2-0 lead right off the bat
  17. I believe he’s there, but not on the roster yet
  18. Better to just ignore it and enjoy watching the game. We could whine about the lineup almost every single game with genius Charlie in charge
  19. The answer is that they probably feel that the lineup construction ultimately doesn’t matter. I think I recall a study that shows over the course of an entire year, the worst possible lineup every day vs the best possible lineup every day amounts to +\- 1 win or something.
