  1. Bird Seed for 13/04/14 http://www.breakingblue.ca/2014/04/13/bird-seed-foreign-substances-early-jays-stats-frenchy-is-dumb-etc/ Scattered thoughts on early season Jays stats, foreign substances, closer carousels, Jeff Francoeur being dum
  2. Get rid of it. Increase views on the main forum slightly. Help bring everything together.
  3. You're looking for a SP, I'm guessing?
  4. Two 7 inning gems in a row (no ER, 11:1 K:BB), and then a DL stint. Oof! Oblique stuff can be all over the map too. Just 15 days on the DL is possible, but IIRC we've seen Morrow miss like, 2+ months with oblique s*** in years previous.
  5. Law is such a f***ing downer. Almost everything ends on a sour note. He doesn't even touch on Mondesi's D, and stops about a centimetre short of calling Nick Williams a non-prospect. C'mon! Basically the antithesis of Parks, who is overly positive and practically falls in love with players.
  6. "Manaea...take Stanek's hip issues and multiply them by 100. At least he had a tear and several guys have had solid recoveries from that. I see him as a guy that will be limited in his innings and his lack of secondary stuff will give him that "might be a bullpen guy" Stigma. If the guy that dominated the Cape returns...maybe he'll be in the equation again. I don't see it. I love future closers as prospects in fantasy though." Some glowing reports re: Manaea coming out of BP already this season
  7. I wouldn't mind taking a flyer on Meso but I hate investing in catchers and I'd have to move some parts around first. Hmm.
  8. B B B B B B B not even close like, what?
  9. Strasvurg for Hitler? That's a bit lopsided....
  10. Sliding headlong into first base... Hamilton broke his shoulder/arm a few years ago sliding headfirst into home too. Smart guy, divine Josh.
  11. Brandon Morrow turning back the clock? It's like it's 2010 right now!
  12. I maybe might be interested? Kind of been on the lookout for a backup MIF.
  13. Definitely wasn't 6 standard deviations better than average. I think his overall st.dev would just be his zscore sum / 7 (seven categories).
  14. I had no idea that Moore was throwing so slowly. For the past year+, really.
  15. Ump crews rotate home plate though. Even if they get the same crew for 8 games, pretty sure they'd see 4 different home plate umps 2x. So I don't think the ump bias would be large. With four umps you'd think some of the tendencies would cancel out. Could definitely be a factor though!
  16. It's not even that crazy, really, considering that 4 games could equal 500, 600+ pitches. So four games might sound like a small sample, but when you think about it like 500+ events, is it really that small?
  17. Yea but did you get a rimjob at the bus station from a nineteen year old street rat?
  18. It's possible. Try letting it recharge on the windowsill. How fat are your fingers?
  19. He turns 34 this year and he was pretty bad in 2012 before being downright terrible in 2013. I have no optimism, and ZiPS projects 0.1 fWAR in 101 games for a reason. I really think his type of role is something that any not-retarded team can fill with a more talented 500k player.
  20. Izturis needs to just be cut loose! He provided extreme negative on-the-field value last year, and this year he's providing a different kind of negative value by getting in the way of more useful players (Diaz or Goins). He's a sunk cost that should have been punted away before the season began! I think I've said this like 20 times now! Why won't AA listen to me!?
  21. We are getting together at Spanky's pre-game for Oxy cocktails, meet there fatcow. Dirty 'Shwa.
  22. I have to catch a bush plane back to the sticks after the game on Saturday. Don't count on me
  23. scald·ing (skôl′dĭng) adj. 4. Harshly critical or denunciatory; scathing: a scalding review of the play. *slams dictionary shut* *re-opens "weird insertions" tab in IE*
