    Wayne Gretzky vs his sport is clearly better than Jordan or Brady vs their sport. I mean people validly debate Lebron vs Jordan right now. Also, Serena Williams...
  2. Yeah he's on team bald now http://www.yardbarker.com/media/7/d/7de42500d551512f30b0e143ba2b9a714259ef7c/thumb_16x9/blue-jays-hope-rowdy-tellez-teoscar-hernandez.jpg?v=1
  3. Seems like a massive uppercut. Probably whiffs 30% of the time if his swing is like that in game. Selling all of my $VEEN shares right now.
  4. It's just funny because of the circumstances. Chasing Springer and they end up not even getting JBJr. They just signed Almora too, and Kevin Pillar is the same player. I wonder if Almora and his agent are pissed here. They probably picked the Mets because there was an open bench spot and a path to playing time. Now he probably gets optioned
  5. strike 1 strike 2! Vobuldak? Voldemak?
  6. Doubtful. That means Tellez is on the bench and Tellez is projected to be a better hitter than Grichuk. Tellez is probably also a better fielding 1B than Vlad in 2021. Vlad DH, Tellez 1B, Teoscar RF, Grichuk bench vs Vlad 1B, Teoscar DH, Grichuk RF, Tellez bench Second option has better defense in RF but worse at 1B and worse offense. Against LHP option #2 might be better though.
  7. Maybe a second change of scenery will do it. Brewers now have a small bench collection of misfit toys: Fisher, McKinney, Vogelbach, Daniel Robertson.
  8. Not a big fan of your face
  9. Hey, they got something for Fisher. Cash and a PTBNL from the Brewers. He probably bumps Billy McKinney from their projected roster which is funny but also a bit sad
  10. If you wait for Kirk to be some skinny Englishman and a leader of pitching men then Kirk will rot in Buffalo until he dies of a heart attack at 31. Just let the fatty play right now and enjoy the magical show
  11. Why the f*** do we have a goalie starts minimum this season? I just had like eight goalie games postponed in one week and lost the categories. Horseshit
  12. Look again and observe his first time through the order stats. Relieving would help him avoid injuries going forward
  13. Bad pitchers with fantastic tools are pretty interesting / tantalizing
  14. The major shoulder surgery, past chronic blister issues, and poor performance as a SP make me doubt that any team will have much faith in him as a traditional SP. Career 1.67 ERA / 2.93 FIP in relief Career 4.24 ERA / 4.56 FIP as a starter (5.29 / 5.12 after 2016) As a SP, first time through the order: 2.39 ERA / 3.70 FIP I understand why most pitchers want to start as long as possible. Being a starter really increases likely compensation. But Sanchez is such a glaring candidate to possibly excel in the pen... if the guy pivoted now he might still have like seven more big league seasons.
  15. I read that yesterday and spent way too long trying to figure out what "does not believe in bidding wars" is even supposed to mean. I mean you got outbid by the f***ing Rays, Steve. Does it mean that you only want to sign players if nobody else wants them?
  16. Have to imagine he'll get an MLB deal somewhere if he's truly throwing that hard right now in February. Low salary of course. Toronto just doesn't have a roster spot for him. They could make him the 8th reliever and option Borucki or Kay but that screws up the LHP/RHP balance. Better fit for a retooling team or a bad team that has a flexible bullpen situation.

  19. Woof, only 8.5M for Paxton. Teams must think he's cooked
  20. Well his FIP last year was better than his 2016!!!
  21. Porcello, come to papa...
  22. Alrighty. I don't remember what the duration of the ban award was... do you?
  23. Fight about Covid stuff somewhere else, please.
  24. Wowwwwwwwwww!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!¡¡!!
  25. Interesting list. I like it.
