    Glasnow is kind of bad

    Mayza is sick in relief. He should be up by June. Nothing else to work on, apparently.
  4. Laika
    That's because Salty is not very good
  5. Laika
    Yeah he seems atrocious. Maybe it's just spring rust, but when he was a Dodger he looked much more effective.

    Better player than Zeke or Pagan tbh

    Rockies break camp with German Marquez, Kyle Freeland, and Antonio Senzatela. wtf are they thinking? Freeland and Senzatela are probably going to get ruined.

    Yeah but you are a human, full of cognitive biases. Give people a 50/50 chance to win $21 on a $10 bet, and far less than half of people take the bet, even though it's a good one mathematically.

    If you had $360 right now to bet, would you put it on him to win at 2/1 odds against? I'm seeing his odds on some sites as 4/9 so letting it ride seems like a really good idea.

    I dare. Jimmy Nelson plus #11(to Hurl) for Devers and #22 (to SVG) ... Urias, #11, Aybar (to z3r0s) for Addison Russell, Tyler Jay, #29. Not awful!!!!!

    It also helps that Goins is half black, you know, for potential #BlackLivesMatterToronto public relations reasons. Wouldn't want to have a game shut down by a sit in.
  13. Laika
    Goins is a much more positive influence on the team. Upton may have more talent but he's a lazy lolligagger. Goins.

    I've generously placed Jimmer Nelson on waivers for your acquisition.

    Classic locker room fun

    Who do you even f***ing know is what I want to know. You don't make MLB contacts by convening boxing tournaments for 12 year old Missasaugan girls or whatever the f*** you do

    Apparently he raises horses as a hobby. It's just a little cherry / personal touch.

    I guess the argument is that a more stable secondary market legitimizes the team's own box office. The team also benefits from impulse attendees, rather than secondary sellers benefitting.

    Really annoying. Last fall I went to a few mid-week games for like $10, buying 30 minutes before the game and printing. If the pre-game firesale no longer exists at the 2 hour cutoff then I'll be super disappointed.

    not enough milk ... or too much milk something with milk

    Looks like concussions is the party line and chronic leg issues is the irresponsible speculation.
  23. Laika
    I thought it was chronic leg stuff? Either way

    Last year, it somehow became evident that the proprietary and non-public HitFX stuff thought Smoak was a true talent ~.350 wOBA hitter, or something like that. I'm assuming that something like that is still characterizing Smoak as a good bet to start hitting. I mean it's not like everything is awful with Smoak. In the last two years he has a .208 ISO and 32 dingers, and that's in 669 PA so one full season. He also has a good walk rate. And, for most of his career the contact rate has been pretty good for a power hitter. Some ingredients are there... I dunno. He'll probably suck and I agree that he should have been cut loose, but we'll see.

    Meh, let it play out. I understand why people hate the Justin Smoak thing, but obviously the Jays think there is something there. I'm not sure what it is, but they have a lot more information than us. Someone like Angel Pagan doesn't move the needle much for this roster. Having moving parts is a pretty good thing for a baseball team. Right now Pearce could end up at 1st or left field. If Pompey breaks out or Upton looks productive while Smoak sucks again, then Pearce is the 1B. If Smoak turns into a useful player then Pearce can play left. Let's see what happens. The time to call for Smoakie being cut was back when viable starters were still available in free agency - guys like Valbuena, Napoli, Moss. That's just not the situation anymore; Pagan is 35/36 and does not project well.
