  1. Good job on the spin wheel. It’s much easier to find holds and guys that are going to get hold opps, on the waiver wire. You’d be devaluing closers quite a bit
  2. Well, it’s not like he blew his ACL on the beach before the Pro Bowl. Few days off. Trying for the million was prob more important than the game to him. Skip the AS game and be ready for the second half
  3. It gives Jim time to look over his fantasy rosters and ponder what he can to avoid getting bounced in the 1st round continually
  4. Kopech gives me fits as a fantasy asset, but if someone can teach him to throw strikes. Watch out
  5. Cards situation is interesting. Is Jordan Walker really that bad in the OF? I knew he didn’t pass the eye test from what I’ve read, but it’s pretty atrocious on FG
  6. In one post you’re an UZR crusader, another an UZR hater. That just equals: spineless jellyfish
  7. I get it. But the nuisances of 1b are hard to quantify
  8. Don’t worry, Spanky. For Xmas I’ll send you a coloring book and you can sit there quietly and make sure you stay in all the lines
  9. Fielding % is a terrible way to judge a 1b value, for starters. Other than point out who is really bad
  10. Also I’m assuming the player is ok being to as “him”. If the board thinks it’s better if I say they/them, Hurl can fix it
  11. Umm.. yes.. so the argument would be that when comparing a 1b to other positions, he’s getting a raw deal because you’re taking away value from him before you even start comparing
  12. If 1b was only standing in place and catching a perfect throw that hit you in the glove, I’d be right with you
  13. It grinds the guys gears that he’s not the smartest guy in the room when I’m around. He’s always looking to drop me down a peg. Doesn’t change anything though
  14. Watch some baseball games. Grass roots and up. First base defense is a thing. It’s not baseballs fault the nerds haven’t been able to quantify everything there properly
  15. Pull up the wRC+ argument and show me where I was wrong. You guys are making the mistake of thinking park factor is determined by all the parks they play in during the year, and not just based on their final runs created and the park they play their home games
  16. Yes, but I think that the David Ortiz example was given as an example of how 1b get the short end of the stick comparing their value to other guys value around the league (other positions) Your argument is something different
  17. So you can compare his WAR easy enough to another 1b. But the problem is, how you compare it to another position. Douchebag
  18. We’re like two college buddies going in different directions, mate. You kind of peaked in college and things aren’t looking great. The CORE: Offense- Greene, Walker, Jung, Robert, Lewis Pitching- Burnes, Eury, Kirby The realistic hope is they’re all established Top 50 players by season end. Most are right there anyway, Lewis is the only one with higher odds, just needs to stay healthy. I still think Grayson will join that group, but there’s some intriguing guys as compliments to the CORE. I’ll lay $75 to win $50 just because I like to always be fair, and straight up it’s not a fair bet
  19. The team as a whole is kind of facing what Dingers old team is facing. Spanky does have a knack for going around and collecting stuff that may be useful from everyone in the neighborhood’s trash cans, as do you, so he’ll probably be able to extend it out a little longer than Stang will
  20. Ah. Spanky having basic reasoning fly over his head again. The argument would be that the defensive penalty itself is flawed. You’ve even been one yourself to question everything defense related, so why talk out of both sides of your mouth. You trying to hob knob one of the people in the circle?
  21. I never saw the gdt until well after the game. Also, the mlb draft thread was disappearing for me. Weird
  22. They don’t know bats either
  23. Yeah not like they’ve killed it going with their scouting.
  24. Come on lol. No writer credit for that?
  25. If he wasn’t a mlb player, he’d be a doctor or computer engineer making bank. I say this because I am an idiot that loves stereotypes
