  1. Yeah, everyone should make a top 15. And then the final list will obviously be 20+ I'll try to get mine done this weekend. I need to do some research on a lot of the really young guys, especially the internationals.
  2. Are there recordings / video of any of the s*** from earlier today available? I'd like to meet Ross Atkins, through the power of the internet.
  3. f***ing ISIS...
  4. I do like the the colours on the home and road alternates, with both red and teal as accents. Way too much going on overall though. They look like college football jerseys. Also, no need for 6 alternates... http://arizona.diamondbacks.mlb.com/ari/fan_forum/uniforms.jsp
  5. I agree. The jeanwork leaves a lot to be desired.
  6. Interestingly, Aoki actually got a decent little raise after getting 1 year older, dealing with concussion issues, and having a cheap option declined. $5.5M in '16, 6M player option in '17 if hits easily attainable playing time figure. 1.5M incentives each yr. Should be a good thing in terms of Revere having a little bit of trade appeal, since he's at the same talent level but 6 years younger.
  7. I still can't believe how perfect this offseason has been for the boring nerdy fans like such as myself. Pretty everything that I wanted to happen has come to fruition, from AA getting replaced with a smarter human all the way down to some personnel moves like seeing Chavez acquired and Navarro take off. All they really need to do now is trade Revere and remove the moderator label from o2cui2i and I can sleep happy forever
  8. Candidates might be: Preller, Dipoto, Hoyer
  9. 3 and 5 seem like the same thing
  10. The shoes are a nice touch. Style is a solid 55, maybe a 60. A lot better than frumpy 40 grade AA.
  11. I dunno, I saw something almost ski-jumpish on Google images.
  12. Who's got a scouting report on Atkins??? Drafting/Developing: 20-80 Trades: 20-80 Roster Management: 20-80 Negotiations and Salary Management: 20-80 Public Relations: 20-80 Hair: 20-80 Arm Strength: 20-80
  13. This is mind boggling. They updated the design to include Price and somehow decided to leave Norris in there.
  14. If you write it I would be willing to take one for the team and take all of the credit
  15. Where is GD? High school is meaningless. He should be writing non-stop.
  16. There should be a ranked-preference matching system for careers and education coming out of high school. Students rank preferences and are assigned a partial government scholarship to: - A certain degree - A certain apprenticeship - A certain job (employee and employer would both be given some benefit in the form of tax credits, a wage addition, or whatever). The assignment is based on: - Job market needs (projected and present) - Student's aptitudes - Student's preferences And students would still be free to do anything they want, they just forfeit the scholarship/subsidy if they don't accept their "Socially Recommended Workforce Training Assignment". Boom. Hire me, government.
  17. yeah cuz she just got rekt
  18. I am approaching 30, unemployed, and in debt for over six figures Verbal Reasoning skills are off the charts though so some day ummm something something
  19. Jon HeymanVerified account ‏@JonHeymanCBS Cliff Lee has been throwing and he's received medical clearance. If he finds the right fit, he will pitch in 2016.
  20. So, no?
  21. He's projected for 3.0 WAR. Comp picks are probably worth closer to $15M.
  22. No there isn't. The worst case scenario is the same whether or not the opt out exists (he sucks and you pay him the full contract). Completely unrelated question but did you do well in school?
  23. MLBTR note on Shields: Oh boy. I'll take Shields + Nick Vincent for Revere, plz and thanks.
  24. That risk is in the contract whether or not he has an opt out. To pay Shields $21M for 3 WAR and then have him walk away, giving the team a comp pick (over $10M in value) would be extremely attractive to me.
  25. Sure, they get to the same place in very different ways. If you just look at WAR and IP though, they are almost clones.
