  1. probably all-in on Peter O'Brien
  2. I don't think you can call it "drunk" if you can still type like that without any errors. When TCA gets drunk he can't get through three words clean. Take notes.
  3. someone told me 15
  4. I saw this earlier today. It never made any sense!!! Did her husband invent the f***ing suit? The person she is chirping is dressed so generically. Insane amounts of vanity.
  5. The top Canadian for the 2016 draft, Paul Quantrill's son Cal, needs Tommy John Surgery. sucks. But maybe increases the odds that Toronto gets him, since they don't seem shy about drafting players with injury concerns.
  6. So BTS is going to miss the playoffs after trading all of his picks and waiver picks to take a run? kewl
  7. BTS, I'm feeling a big night from Alzner. Six blocks?
  8. I don't get why the announcer thinks it's so funny
  9. Santiago was arguably the best backup SS in the fold.
  10. Exactly! And he was the best they could do...
  11. Canadian development needs to take more trips to the Dominican. This country cannot develop shortstops. Remember Cale Iorg in the WBC? No wonder Russ Martin wanted to play SS so badly.
  12. It's like, three bobbles in March. Probably best not to read too much into it right now. For all we know, two of those hit a pebble, or he's trying out a new glove model, or something.
  13. Nice bounce back for him. Freeman makes up two of those baserunners (hit and walk). Jays bats destroying Teheran.
  14. Big league pressure giving Travis the yips? As a guy without great tools, he needs to field the ones hit at him...
  15. That would be as a reliever? Correct me if I'm wrong but your system would just predict skill based on their past role.
  16. They're broadcasting all this CIS s*** the last few days. Funny that they'd neglect the Canadian junior team, featuring Tristan Pompey, Demi Orimoloye (2nd team all American by BA), and Josh Naylor (1st team all American by BA), vs the Blue Jays in the same weekend.
  17. FYI - Breaking Blue is making a comeback with different writers. Give it a read, tweet about it, etc. http://www.breakingblue.ca/2015/03/15/introducing-a-simple-and-accurate-pitching-projection-system-frias/

    2012 - 8 defensemen get drafted before Filip Forsberg. 2010 - Gudbranson over Johansen was terrible. St Louis drafts Tarasenko and Schwartz after D-men like Brandon Gormley, Derek Forbort, and Dylan McIlroth get taken. 2008 - Schenn #5 and Bogosian #3 (but no great forwards were taken immediately after) 2007 - Hickey #4, Alzner #5.... Voracek #7. Couture #9. 2006 - Erik Johnson #1..... Toews #3. Backstrom #4. Kessel #5. 2005 - Jack Johnson #3..... Carey Price #5..... Brian Lee #9 - Kopitar #11. 2004 - Cam Barker #3 right before Ladd and Wheeler (holy f*** Wheeler is old!). Obviously these are cherry picked examples and proof of NOTHING. But I think that if you did a proper analysis you'd find out that D-men get overdrafted vs. future value.

    the key word there is the if they rarely do, and even when it happens it often takes years with Dmen. The amount of highly drafted Dmen that bust for their original drafting team is alarmingly high (I don't have any studies, just my feeling).
  20. lol, well maybe that's actually wha Bo said (it's in a quote).

    Yeah, maybe if they end up with #5, flip it to Edmonton for like Yak + #22 (or whatever, I don't know). Or, maybe #5 and Reilly for Eichel!

    I would LOL if this season ended up in Toronto drafting a defenseman.

    These are all second-tier elite guys though? TSN recently had Hanifin down at #8 and comped him to Bouwmeester.

    Laffs should finish 27th at this rate. 9.50% odds at McDavid, lol. Are there elite players available at #4?
