  1. Probably a Liriano clone for the first few years of his career.
  2. His framing runs on BP took a positive jump recently. Up to 9th, +2 runs. Joseph +5, Grandal +4.5 lead the way. Framing runs make him #3, behind Dee and Trout. The "being Dee Gordon" penalty makes Dee ineligible, so Martin is #2 behind Fish.
  3. Oh look, Russ Martin is the best C in baseball: http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=c&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2015&month=0&season1=2015&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0
  4. This poll is a pretty sad indication of board ignorance.
  5. Rodon just hit 99 in the 6th He should be annoyingly awesome, IF the arm stays on his body. That's a big if though. Hence my capitalization of it. Meanwhile, Greg Bird it hitting like .190 in AA.
  6. Randy Wolf ERA down to 1.06... can't keep this kid down for much longer
  7. You are a genius and have constructed a time machine, but you can only use it once and then you lose the machine and the knowledge of how to do it. The choice you have is as follows: A) Go back to the 1930s and murder Hitler Go back to 2000 and sabotage Anthopoulos' mailroom work with the Expos so they give him a bad reference
  8. Sanchez turning into Joe Kelly would be a success story, and that makes me very sad, at a time when Noah Syndergaard has been summoned to the majors.
  9. Flip it to +1.8 and it takes him from a below replacement level player to a replacement level one... still not contributing either way. That tends to happen when you hit like a pitcher, and half of the game is offense.
  10. I think I speak for everyone when I say - eat a dick, North
  11. Please don't give North 16+ points in the LoD
  12. Secret Steve Pearce Plan Step 1: Suck and lose DH job to Jimmy Parades (who?) Step 2: Talk Buck into trying you at 2B for exactly 5 games, gaining Yahoo eligibility Step 3: ???? Step 4: Profit
  13. He used to be able to turn on pitches inside, but you're right that he can't at all anymore. Must be some combination of age + mechanics + injury toll.
  14. Didn't you say he would be a league average 2B/SS if given enough playing time because his defense is that good?
  15. Ummm, last time I checked Goins' defense was elite at SS in Reyes absence and accordingly his fWAR...... um.... nvm
  16. Dumpster Fire Boston rotation will never get old
  17. http://www.brooksbaseball.net/pfxVB/cache/location.php-pitchSel=592717&game=gid_2015_05_08_bosmlb_tormlb_1&batterX=&innings=yyyyyyyyy&sp_type=1&s_type=&league=mlb&pnf=&zlpo=&cache=1.gif Looks like 7 called balls inside the zone, 2 called strikes outside. He got screwed on the one side of the plate but the plot still doesn't inspire confidence. Look at all of those pitches just hung up and inside to righties. That's a huge issue for him.
  18. Definitely some competitive walks yesterday.

    Agreed, and I doubt it. It seems pretty likely to me that Chiarelli would have been fully capable of taking the missed playoffs as a wakeup call and altering his own process in a way that would please ownership and get them back there soon. They were easily a top 8 team in the conference this season based on talent, probably top 5. I don't follow hockey close enough to know anything about their AGMs or whether or not they might have someone qualified already in house.

    Basically that + maybe kept the roster too stagnant over the years
  21. Just gutting your team for Max, eh? I love it. Feel free to add Richie Shaffer too.
  22. You're in the lead. Auction expires at midnight
