  1. Gattis was a much better hitter in Atlanta, and sustainably so. That talent is still in there. If he can maintain OF eligibility then he should have comparable value to Khris Davis. You could practically sandwich them on your OF rankings for 2016.
  2. Most of us sign up anyway when the price drops down this low at the end of summer. Might as well hold hands while we do it and save a decent chunk of money, collectively. If 12 people sign up together the community saves $90. That's almost enough to send one guy to one playoff game, and then the other 11 can live vicariously through him. Or, we could all have a pizza party (no suckers allowed).
  3. There is no way that your router and ps3 would just straight up be "not compatible". You just need to figure it out and forward the correct port or something. Other than that, I think you can buy a WDTV box for like 90 bucks and they support mlb.tv, also come with netflix apps and USB slots. Even cheaper, you could get a Chromecast and sling it from your computer.
  4. Yeah, you have your own accounts. It's just a cheap referral system so everybody joins up right now, and then the auto-renewal clause for 2016 in the sign up contract makes MLB.TV a s*** ton of money because a lot of people who sign up for cheap will forget to cancel and end up paying $130 for it next year.
  5. Signed up through your group. The message said Admin + you + 2 others, so I'm guessing it's full now. ?
  6. As long as one person googled it, I'm happy.
  7. Trea Turner, like three days ago. You can pull off trades like this when you're a pitching mechanics guru, like me.
  8. Rusney up to a 114 wRC+ now, and shoving 3 run jacks down your 8th place throat during Rivalry Week.
  9. Sounds like you're sleeping on Mondesi. I just told you not to sleep on him.
  10. Never sleep on a plus defensive SS with some hitting tools, even if they didn't hit that well in the minors. They're bound to get a huge amount of MLB time to figure it all out, and they don't have to do that much to be a fantasy relevant SS. In other words, don't sleep on Raul Mondesi Jr Jr
  11. Any reliever with options or without a big contract who gets surprised/upset/butthurt at getting sent down/cut is pretty much an ignoramus. Being said, Delabar's comments are fine IMO. He was probably asked a direct question - "have you been told to work on anything in particular?".
  12. They would have known that flipping Reyes wouldn't be easy. They'll work hard to do it in the offseason. Maybe they can find a trade partner who has a bad contract SP.
  13. Salazar vs. Severino this afternoon. That's must watch TV, right?
  14. I wonder if Santiago is a DIPS beater. Career BABIP and ERA are significantly lower than his peripherals suggest
  15. Well, if the sell high window was still open you just slammed it shut with this comment. But yeah, for a minute there earlier this summer, Santiago looked kind of good.
  16. Everyone in the league has made multiple trades this year and at least 18 roster moves, except for Sammy. He has made no trades and only 11 moves. Should we be concerned about Sammy's activity levels?
  17. No. I wouldn't have a ton of faith in his commitment to another fantasy league. AG would be a legit candidate. No point thinking about it though.
  18. I doubt he'll play much, but a 70+ runner who can play the MIF should help them a little bit down the stretch. It's amazing that the Nats are only .500. Desmond and Rendon have both been garbage. Similarly, it's crazy to me that Toronto is happy giving a roster spot to Ezequiel Carrera while Pompey crushes skulls in Buffalo. Surely he has developed as much as he's going to develop this season - just call him up as a great 4th OF.
  19. What is this s***, evidence and data? frig off!
  20. Bourn and Swisher weren't even terrible contracts. Bourn instantly went from a 4+ WAR player to s*** after signing. Basically the same thing with Swisher. It's remarkable how bad Cleveland's FA luck has been. They finished 5 games back last year while Swisher and Bourn combined for -1.2 WAR. If those two have league average years, like they would have been projected to when they signed their contracts, then Cleveland possibly wins the division.
  21. Because he's been a top dog there since 2002 and they haven't had a lot of success. Two playoff appearances + a 93 win team that didn't make the playoffs, but those brief successes were quickly forgotten. It's hard to be consistently good when your team payroll is almost always in the bottom ~6 in the league.
  22. Good post njh. Good thread.
  23. Foxsports is saying that Toronto is talking to him about replacing Beeston. This is the guy that you should all want as president. Very smart, and fairly "new school". Cleveland at times has been one of the most progressive front offices in baseball. Reasons for Shapiro to do it: better city, higher payroll, and a raise (obviously). FWIW, Indians fans would likely think - good riddance. It's easy to pluck executives from a struggling team.
