I think that I only said it was a decent deal for you to bug Dinger. But sometimes my trolling gets too pervasive and I lose my sense of self. Not really sure what's the facade and what's reality anymore.

ugh boxy

I can't stand Chris Archer's stupid face http://ca.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2012612/reg_600.jaden.cm.71212.jpg

He's not necessarily wrong but there are certainly other ways to frame what happened. The way Archer says it, "a couple of their guys" vs "our franchise player", you'd think he hit Goins and Tolleson with changeups. If you're going to get hit intentionally, Marco Estrada is one of the most batter-friendly guys to do it. In classic Longoria fashion he managed to get hit right on the hip bone. Night and day relative to Herrera and Ventura chucking 100mph fastballs at Lawrie's upper body. That was insane.

My Cup Runneth Over - DeSclafani, Graveman, and Wojciechowski all starting for other MLB teams today. Meanwhile, as Sanchez and Norris struggle, the Blue Jays have to be concerned about their current lack of SP depth.

lol

#36 was missing from the doc and Spanky owned it at one point so I just gave you that.
-
I'm just going to go ahead and give #76 to Spanky. Pretty inconsequential. If someone can make a better claim to pick #76 then it's theirs.
-
Perfect. lol bts seems like a reasonable explanation. As for #76....
-
TCA and Thehurl both own pick #29 on the spreadsheet for some reason. Someone do some sleuthing please and figure out what happened.

The lefty who got the Hold against Toronto yesterday just got suspended for PEDs -
Trust me. I played in the O.

I've never seen Yahoo do that in season.

You'll probably have to wait a year or two to judge your end...

Someone get me Shanahan's number. This is a revolutionary idea.
-
Yeah, probably because they're worse at hockey, generally speaking. It's no surprise that the lanky kid who couldn't skate well that you drafted in R1 took a dozen years to develop into something useful. If I ran a team I would draft only forwards, convert some of them based on things like them having a harder slapshot or slower foot speed (analogize to a pitcher having a plus-plus FB but not enough command to stick as a SP), and we would f***ing light it up. It would be like a constant power play with 6 little Torey Krugs on my blue line.

It's not something that teams really ever try to do. Not sure I could name anybody. But it's no surprise to me that the best defenseman in the game (Karlsson) plays "like a forward".
-
"Defenseman" is a misnomer. D-men are able to play 50% more than forwards specifically because their job is easier and less demanding physically. A huge inefficiency in the NHL is that teams almost never try to convert "failed" forwards to defense. Instead, they sign scrub defenseman to plug into the end of their depth charts. Relegating a forward to the blueline, IMO, could be like moving a pitcher to the bullpen in baseball. NHL teams might be surprised at the gains. It's also very stupid that anybody takes D-men high in the draft.
-
Well, if he's a top 5 player who had one of the best performances you've ever seen then why did his team get outshot by 15 and lose the game? When top 5 talents have a dominant performance, their team tends to dominate along with them.
-
Odor for #2 (Souza) --> Souza for Pompey, Span, and AJ Cole.
-
It's 10% having a top end team and 90% luck. I mean, he's rostering Chris Owings and Erasmo Ramirez right now. Not phenomenal by any means. It's not like he owns Steven Souza or Danny Salazar.
-
I was the last team to beat North. Week 13 of last year. June 23-29th.

look it up, meat.

Like a decade. I think they had Ichiro/Beltre/Ibanez/Sexson at the same time. Man Richie Sexson was awesome in his prime.
