  1. keepah sleepahs who helped me win the whole f***ing thing last year, that's who
  2. Anyone want to maybe swap a holds guy for part-time closer Kevin Jepsen?
  3. I guess just health. Anderson made 32 starts TOTAL from 2011 to 2014, while Anibal made 113 and amassed 16.1 fWAR. They project for fairly equal skill but Anibal should have more K's and a better K/BB, so that's more tailored for the DDL
  4. Marian Hossa Nick Foligno Sidney Crosby Zach Parise Jarome Iginla Scott Hartnell Dmitrij Jaskin Jean-Gabriel Pageau Mike Green Hampus Lindholm Dennis Wideman Ben Bishop Marc-Andre Fleury Artem Anisimov Milan Michalek My keepahs
  5. Deadline deal: Souza + Anibal to Torontofan Brett Anderson + Fowler to me Clearly a win for Torontofan. His team was playoff calibre this year, just missed out, and now he's already made a big rotation upgrade for 2016 while also adding a 20/20 talent. My favourite thing about the two guys that I got is that they aren't currently on the DL. Aside from that, Fowler kind of sort of helps out in some categories that I suck at.
  6. Yeah, Yahoo sometimes doesn't follow the rules.
  7. idk, maybe it's the age and the .130 ISO
  8. These old "Guinness style" Labbatt's Blue posters for the Blue Jays are f***ing wicked. I wonder where I can get one. Probably kijiji. http://www.baseball-collect.com/images/Poster%20Jays%20Labatts%20Twins.jpg http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/Mzk3WDYwMA==/z/0U4AAOSw~gRVkt5F/$_35.JPG http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODAwWDY2Mw==/z/pKoAAOSwLVZVz29v/$_35.JPG
  9. Coors/Bud/Canadian = all garbage, but anyone who would turn their nose up at a free beer = an even bigger pile of snob garbage
  10. Chen blows. Chen for Choo is already borderline trape for featherD. That he offered less is humorous.
  11. I was shocked that Rivera gave BEN REVERE the stop sign on the groundball single.
  12. Luis Rivera is a very bad third base coach.
  13. I'm not even a huge Puig fan but I'd still take him about a full round before Bumgarner in a fresh draft.
  14. All of your dudes are like mega old tho
  15. Well obviously you need to keep Shoe. Someone like me might not, however.
  16. Cautionary tale to the team that one day decides to move Jose Reyes off of SS.
  17. In 2014 Hanley had a 135 wRC+ and was a -15 UZR/150 defender at SS. 3.3 fWAR. At 31, and with a 190 wRC+ in 86 2013 games, his bat should have held steady, for the most part. Hypothetically, according to the defensive spectrum and Saber dogmatism, a -15 shortstop should be a neutral zero run left fielder. Perhaps a good scout could have foreseen him turning into a -30 run LF, based on his body and some of his eccentricities, but it seems pretty random to me that he's that bad. He's handled shortstop for most of his career and while he has never been good he's always been a viable player there considering how well he hits. Him in LF making Mark Trumbo look like Alex Gordon is pretty f***ing crazy random. The offensive decline probably has something to do with the stress of sucking in the OF and being preoccupied with trying to figure that side of the game out. It was a weird f***ing signing from multiple angles though. Why pay such a big ticket price to a career SS and then plop him in your wonky LF, when your team already has a s*** ton of OF depth?
  18. Fox, etc. own national broadcast rights, so the games are all blacked out on MLB.tv in the postseason. IIRC there is some functionality still. You can watch the games live from various cameras of your choice, but there is no commentary and there are no graphics. It's just a video feed, no replays, mediocre quality. Not a terrible option if you can somehow get radio in your ears and synced up to the feed...
  19. This reflects so poorly on Sportsnet and GotStyle. They have had a business relationship for a while. It's crazy that they let any portion of the bill slip to Travis. Here is what should have happened: Sportsnet Producer, at end of filming - "OK, so obviously we will be paying for the suit. How much do we owe you?" GotStyle manager - "Are you kidding? This is on the house. You're basically giving us an extended commercial on national television. Just make sure to name drop the store, and get some shots of the front."
  20. I would probably download Maple Story and pretend I'm a girl
  21. There's probably no limit on the group, he just needs at least 3 friends to get the deal. Maybe.
  22. Gattis wasn't even a garbage pitch framer. 2013 - above average, 2014 - basically average (statcorner). The Astros should seriously consider making him a part time C again in 2016, with Castro and Conger both projecting for an 89 wRC+. Free up that DH spot for CCC, AJ Reed, Preston Tucker, off days for Springer, etc. Gattis won't project for a strong enough wOBA to accrue much WARz as a full time DH. Or just trade Gattis to Seattle so they can trot him out in an OF corner for 150 horrendous games.
