    connorp gets a short timeout to think about why and how he was being racist
  2. Laika
    Well, Berrios.

    Toronto did everything they could do hide Hernandez and Gurriel in aggressive shifting patterns but they are truly godawful defenders. So happy they are gone.

    Must move some of these guys: 1 of Sal Perez or Logan O'Hoppe Ramon Laureano Marcus Stroman Hunter Renfroe Kyle Bradish John Means Adam Wainwright Kyle Hendricks Charlie Blackmon Daniel Lynch Dean Kremer Jurickson Profar Roughly sorted by value, top down. Would takes pick upgrades for most, particularly the bottom half. Top ~4 names probably have the most value but all of these names are very available as I fear a roster crunch in spring training and want to get in front of it.

    Cavan Biggio is the utility guy maybe he can grow his hair out and join the Barrio
  6. Laika
    I don't think he's any BIGGER he's just not any SMALLER.
  7. Laika
    complete agree, Jimcanuck, in fact perhaps the Belt signing is a precursor
  8. Laika
    I am now past the point of hoping that he ever gets in shape But if he is a groundball machine again this year the pattern will be glaringly obvious as his one elite season will have come after his one offseason of trimming weight

    yeah they are getting some pretty optimistic projections from Steamer other systems disagree (Steamer - The Bat) Siri: 2.7 - 1.5 Bethancourt: 2.1 - 0.6 Aranda: 1.6 - 0.5 Franco: 5.6 - 4.8 Diaz: 4.1 - 3.2 Paredes: 2.9 - 2.3 The Bat must be a bit more conservative. I see some 0.5 WAR discrepancies for the Toronto hitters, but there aren't any gaps as big as some of these Rays projection gaps.

    The Padres should sign him for the rivalry

    but they need Mr. Manfred to like them for various other reasons

    Red Sox DFA Connor Seabold with an option remaining surprising / stupid decision
  14. Laika
    Belt has had surgery on his right knee three times. 2015 minor meniscus tear repair 2018 "major microfracture surgery to stimulate cartilage growth" 2022 "Sept. 3 surgery to clean out cartilage and scar tissue" The 2022 surgery does not sound "major" but of course with his age and repeated problems I would not exactly expect a fully healthy Brandon Belt. He will have chronic issues in this knee forever, I think.
  15. Laika
    nah I had it saved and pickled thanks mom
  16. Laika
    they aren't done. still have one obvious demotion on the projected 25 man roster (Lukes) a couple trade candidates on the 25 man (Biggio, Richards) and some 40 man guys who are DFA candidates (Thornton, Gage, Hatch)
  17. Laika
    it's just a doodle the actual final dimensions probably depend somewhat on how the construction goes and where they need to put support pillars etc.

    No s***, Olerud is one of the smarter posters on the board. He just writes like an old fart who has all the time in the world which might be true.
  19. Laika
    no, I got my foreskin reattached
  20. Laika
    Red Sox seems to be completely mishandling Houck and Whitlock. Jerking both of them around between the bullpen and rotation, in different directions.
  21. Laika
    we don't have numbers or anything but looks like it will be a bit deeper right down the lines and maybe in RCF LCF but also a bit closer where the bullpens push in but from all the stories, the big change will be the reduction in foul territory next year as all the infield seats come in. that will be when the general offensive park factor trends up the most.
  22. Laika
    right right kinks
  23. Laika
    the fences aren't really moving in or out IIRC the seats are moving down to meet the fences and the height of the fence is becoming irregular
  24. Laika
    Yeah but Fenway always has the geographic argument. It had to be shaped like that because of where it is. The Yankees only had that argument in the old stadium. When MLB let them copy the dimensions for their new ballpark, it really ruined the short porch. Made it something commercial.
  25. Laika
    Well, Baltimore just moved the fences back. I think for the most part the tweaks are happening as teams seek more neutral park factors. Nobody really likes extreme ballparks anymore. For the Jays, it has nothing to do with the game though and everything to do with the fan experience and making the ballpark better. Baltimore might have overdone it though, lmao. I remember that ball Merrifield crushed there late in the year that died on the track. I could not believe it.
