sss... he's missed games and wasn't 100% most of season.. we'll see I guess.

lol.. I knew these were your words as soon as I read them in a PM. Last time I checked they don't factor UZR into fantasy:) Kemp is only 2 years removed from hitting .300+ w/62hr over 260 games in a very good lineup.. as he comes back to full health and now getting regular ABs with Crawford out of picture, I expect good things fantasy wise.

What the smedley guy said is accurate. Why are you afraid to post under one account? You can respond to me however you want but when you get done typing please just ask yourself this question.

I would totally support your right to discuss this, absolutely.. this board can really benefit from differing opinions.. but its obvious youre just a pathetic troll looking for attention cause your life just sucks that bad I guess..

Yeah, its not really about silencing anti-sabr guys.. they should get to debate this whether its a thread they make or an existing one where they give their opinion.. but in order to start a thread on the subject.. they should have to have some sort of post count. Otherwise, it will enable the multi-account trolls.. I know mods like admin are thinking they don't want to silence people.. I actually agree with this.. but by allowing the spam trolls they risk newbies being chased away.

Maybe not like this but I was reasonably hoping for .265-.270/33/100.. He was on pace in 110g last year to better that. His main thing has usually been health but DHing will prob help with that. Also a lot of balls get launched in BAL don't they? Thought was Top 5 last year. Could be wrong

Nothing wrong there really.. I'm a loyal Jays fan but seriously you can say for sure Melky isn't taking something? I sure as heck would if it was my contract year and I knew I had past success with it.. And knew that tons of other people do it and don't get caught.. Just need to be smarter..

I came to the main board looking for a "Can Happ Stick" thread

In fairness he prob didn't know how many years of control Iwa had.. I didn't and had to look quick just now. Common sense would be that he'd be on a clock like any other rookie but when I played franchise mode in 2k13 he was always a FA after two years so I had to check:)

Where did BTS' posts ITT go? Did he finally get banned for all of the abusive language?

Disclaimer: I'm ok pimping John Sterling but in no way enjoy his sign off when the Yanks win. That is terrible

No way. Sterling does spend a lot of time on his knees for NY players but he's quick to praise other teams guys. He's really good. The lady Susan is just plain terrible.. Some kind of Title IX type bs going on there. Didn't get job on her own merit

JFAS was very against Jimi, not sure on Santana though

It's salaries are pretty cleared laid out though..broken down by year as well as contract. It's a quality site it just gets hate as it's viewed as old school

The old board is still in shambles... I went over there last week for a change up and thought I'd start posting there a bit.. But it's just sempai crappping all over the place along with all of doggs identities and other spammers. Any decent newbie would be scared off..

Idk.. Feels like your taking ax extremely, extremely small sample size and making a generalization on it. With young players especially, just in common sense.. I'd probably trust jamming the numbers of thousands of players into a machine and cranking out a prediction over a scouts opinion. How bad do scouts miss on tons of guys.. Lawrie, Snider, Wallace, Ackley, Miller.. You could go on forever obviously.. So it's clearly better to take some sort of average factoring in all the guys that failed.. Even so, obviously it'll be wrong all the time but I don't know how you could think the scouts consensus would be any better.. I think it's safer to question projections when we have plenty of data to look at. I think I made a thread of this sort in off-season. One prime example was Clayton Kershaw. Think he avgd 6.5 WAR the last 3 years and was projected at 3.6 or something. I mean in times like this I question the system. I also understand right now the computer is looking good in Clayton's case.. But really.. How many ppl would take the under with him on 3.6 pre-season. I guess you have to account for injury of course..

Sanchez will prob be like a Jarred Cosart? Hopefully he can end this year in the bigs with a fluke ERA to help Jays down the stretch:)

Yeah Dominicans players always take time to sign for Dominican fans

I would agree. He seems like the rah rah type and seemed really popular with the club. Don't see how anyone could see it any other way... His issue was being an arrogant douche with media and fans..

He got paid though. Prob lives pretty nice

To parrot: Pederson for Franklin would be a pretty bad trade for LAD.

That's crazy.. I'm in that world and I've seen coaches booted multiple times but never a coach calling a kid a pussy or ordering a beaning...

Anyone have a ESPN IN? I know hurl does.. Just curious if someone could post their "top 25 prospects of the last 10 years"..looks like a fun read

Yeah actually the C was catching until the top of 15th in the first game and then relieved the kid that threw 194 pitches. The C ended up pitching the last 3 innings of that game then went on to pitch 7 more innings later that day in 2nd game of doubleheader. Crazy.

I thought this might be a thread about a story on ESPN today where a prep kid tossed 194 pitches in a game.. David Price tweeted him a congrats but said his coach should be fired..lol
