  1. I'm glad we're on the same page now Adam.
  2. Delino DeShields does not sound very smart.
  3. You aren't trying to say that a draft that featured Correa, Buxton, Zunino, Gausman, Heaney, A. Russell, Giolito, C. Seager, Wacha, and Stroman in the FIRST round was a good draft, are you?
  4. No, I fully understand the point. I think it's f***ing dumb that Rogers didn't pay for the suit, that Bautista feels the need to play big brother (at least he's keeping to himself), and that there are people on a message board who seem genuinely concerned that a 24 year old with a salary of over half a million dollars had to pay $900 out of pocket for a suit he got at 50% off.
  5. My give a s*** factor is so low that I forgot it was at the beginning of the year. Double checking.. nope, still no sympathy felt for someone who has a salary of over half a million having to buy a $1800 suit for 50% off. I understand this isn't the main point of this thread, but there are people who honestly seem fiscally concerned about Devon Travis.
  6. Also, it's interesting to see how many financial advisors there are on the forum! Really had no clue there were so many of you. I'm sure Travis could have comfortably have bought 1, 2, heck even 10 more suits if he wanted. Sure the principle of all this was wrong, and Rogers should really just pay for the suit to make this go away but let's not act like this $1000 suit has placed a financial strain on Devon Travis.
  7. Kind of defeats the purpose, no? He's trying to make a statement to Rogers. Not that I really care, but what you're saying is wrong.
  8. Exactly. Seems petty of them to not just flip him a grand and brush it under the rug.
  9. Cool GD, thanks. My approach was obviously off and I learned something new tonight.
  10. League Average Hard Hit %: 28.6% Paul Goldschmidt: 39.9% Miguel Cabrera: 40.5% Chris Colabello: 31.7% Justin Smoak: 36.2 % 2015 Average Exit Velocity (>100 AB's): Paul Goldschmidt: 93.32 mph (8) Miguel Cabrera: 94.04 mph (2) Chris Colabello: 91.03 mph (51) Justin Smoak: 92.15 mph (25)
  11. http://www.beergraphs.com/leaderboards/beer/8-coors-light/ 94 Style+, 0.62 BAR. It really is a subpar beer. Much bigger fan of the Banquets, although it's only at 100 Style+.
  12. Best part of the second wild card is it makes winning the division meaningful.
  13. If Smoak is up to bat in a tie game with one out, bottom nine and runner on third in the WC game I don't see how you can be hoping for Smoak to strikeout. I find it quite funny that you're telling me that I don't understand fWAR, then you immediately try and tell me that Fangraphs should view being able to play more than one position (piss poorly, even!) as a positive. Willingness to keep your job and do what your manager tells you to do as a journeyman isn't accounted by Fangraphs. I too find this is a major flaw in the WAR calculation.
  14. Yup going forward. Practically or not, it's still projected to be above average. It's not accurate to discredit it just because it isn't very much above average.
  15. All the systems at Fangraphs see him as an above average bat.
  16. Buck is harmless. He catches a lot of s*** and fondles the Yankees (Jeter's) testicles a little too much but other than that he's fine. Pat is way worse in my opinion. Buck and Siddall this weekend in Anaheim was actually a good combination. I just like to rag on Buck and assume every error he makes is because he's drunk. Two of my favourite, signature Buck calls are: -When he gets overly excited on a "deep fly ball" -"A lil looper" Feel free to add more!
  17. I suggest you call the Jays ticket office and let them know.
  18. There isn't a single Blue Jay fan that actively roots for Colabello to strikeout when he's up to bat. What many posters around here want is for others to accept that what he's done so far isn't indicative of his true talent level. Just because he's hit .330/.372/.521 on a .400 BABIP doesn't mean we should expect him to continue hitting like that. With a FO that has a history of making poor roster decisions and ignoring things like roster flexibility, it's easy to see why some fans might welcome some regression from Colabello.
  19. f***, comprehension is hard.
  20. Tulo isn't exactly the poster boy of staying healthy, and it's hard to make the argument that moving to turf will help. I'm pretty this is what SirBJay was referring to.
  21. Very prompt banning of obvious trolls. Nice work, Moderators!
  22. Hmm. The guy creating multiple personalities on a message board is critiquing Dinger's job. Makes sense.
  23. It's basically the equivalent of using frogs for fishing.
  24. Nope. Perfectly acceptable thread to use to post dumn things found at OH. At least we can keep it centralized here so that it doesn't clutter all the other threads. Also, it's tremendous bait.
