  1. I find it kind of absurd that they would non-tender him, unless they have inside info that his injury is so severe that his career is maybe over.
  2. Don't worry, Craig Gentry just elected free agency!
  3. too lazy i like being pessimistic anyway, especially with arms
  4. Jeff Samardzija on a 5 year deal: [table=width: 300, class: grid] [tr] [td]WAR[/td] [td]$/WAR[/td] [td]Value[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]2.7[/td] [td]8[/td] [td]21.6[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]2.2[/td] [td]8.56[/td] [td]18.83[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]1.7[/td] [td]9.24[/td] [td]15.72[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]1.2[/td] [td]9.98[/td] [td]11.98[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]0.7[/td] [td]10.78[/td] [td]7.54[/td] [/tr] [/table] fair contract = $75.68M Greinke on a 6 year deal: [table=width: 300, class: grid] [tr] [td]WAR[/td] [td]$/WAR[/td] [td]Value[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]4.1[/td] [td]8[/td] [td]32.8[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]3.6[/td] [td]8.56[/td] [td]30.82[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]3.1[/td] [td]9.25[/td] [td]28.66[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]2.6[/td] [td]9.98[/td] [td]25.96[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]2.1[/td] [td]10.78[/td] [td]22.65[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]1.6[/td] [td]11.65[/td] [td]18.63[/td] [/tr] [/table] fair contract = $159.51M
  5. It looks like Samardzija is smelling his fingers
  6. When Greinke gets 6/$200 and Samardzija gets $100M+, JA Happ might look a bit more handsome
  7. That's what I thought was happening but then I saw the final trade, where the M's threw in some controllable LHP that they got in that Karns/Miller trade.
  8. And Hutch was also the #3 starter a few weeks ago. Suck eggs, you cynical dirt squirrel!
  9. Like why not just non-tender TRUMBO, keep CJ and sign s***** CATCHER? hmmmmmm?
  10. yes, true
  11. Good!
  12. I don't understand why the Mariners would want to do that trade Must think Clevenger is a frame god or something
  13. Yes if the mods can remove any lists until we are done it will help avoid biases and influences. This is important work and should be taken seriously, or not done at all.
  14. So Ike Davis is firmly getting non-tendered then Might be marginally better than Smoak.
  15. It would end up being a lot less than 128 because he'll inevitably need other days off for day game after night game, nagging injury reasons, etc.
  16. - All he did was look at offense in a 21 game sample size. It doesn't really mean anything. - Even if his conclusion was correct, you would assume it would affect any catcher so you might as well let Martin catch and then you at least benefit from his arm. - The only real consideration for having Martin not catch Dickey is the "toll on his body", which is common sense, but even then I don't support sitting Martin for 1/5 of the team's games. He should still catch some Dickey starts + DH some of the ones he doesn't.
  17. Does RA Dickey's other Dickey effect cancel out the famous Dickey effect? Earlier tonight I saw this article from October: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-culmination-of-the-r-a-dickey-experiment/ Apparently Martin was -16 Blocking Runs below average, thanks to Dickey. That's about 1.5 wins down the drain. What did CC estimate Dickey's "Dickey Effect" on other pitchers was worth initially? +1.5 WAR. Hmmm. The run value on blocking seems way too high though. If you look at passed balls, Martin averages about 4/5 and this year he had 19. Wild pitches were close to his career norm. There's no way that 15 extra passed balls would = 15 extra runs.
  18. Colabello and Smoak are both pretty bad 1B/DH options. They can't carry both of them again. Team needs a bit more positional versatility from at least one of those roster spots (and maybe both). Colabello projects a bit better and obviously was better last year, plus he's league min, so I guess he sticks around. It's kind of remarkable that Smoak might not even be a league average hitter. I'd probably tender Saunders. He's still worth a $3M gamble I think.
  19. Kelly Johnson!
  20. Definitely. Give me a man with poo-brown eyes and a stocky physique, any day.
  21. The sugar acts as a preservative making the icing keep forever
  22. They don't need anything else. 1-7 is very solid, and traditional. Price Buchholz Porcello Rodriguez Miley Kelly/Owens/Johnson They also have a robust offense, a couple of elite relievers, and minor league depth. Nothing really left for them to do except try to unload the bad Hanley/Panda contracts if they can.
  23. What would the point of an offer have been? Public relations? lol
