  1. Velocity is a thing. Some guys like Liam Hendriks see huge jumps in short spurts, some others don't.
  2. I didn't exactly expect Sanchez to be an all-star this quickly, but it was pretty clear that the ability was there. I'm particularly impressed with the rapid improvement in command.
  3. We've moved up guys like Biggio in the past, but I'm unsure how the new regime will handle him.
  4. J.A. Happ has a higher batting average than Bryce Harper.
  5. Sanchez will pitch the 4th inning of the all-star game, according to Yost.
  6. I'd rather take a chance on Jepsen if we're going to go that route. If we're willing to make a minor trade, however, I think that Andrew Bailey of the Phillies, Carlos Villanueva of the Padres, and J.C. Ramirez of the Angels merit consideration.
  7. I prefer Colabello to Montero
  8. Montero does this in AAA every year. There's no reason to believe he'll be any better in the major leagues now.
  9. There are going to be a lot of middle tier guys that the previous regime liked and they don't. I could see a guy outside of our top 5 like Borucki getting moved.
  10. July 31st and probably not.
  11. Poor Smoak, lots of horrible calls against him recently.
  12. Perhaps Donaldson has to DH today, perhaps Edwin is hurt. Many possible explanations.
  13. Game 91 Pillar (7pts)-o2 Donaldson (2pts)- vdub Edwin (2pts)- Tulo (2pts)- labadee, Jonn Smoak (5pts)- Frenchsoup Saunders (2pts)- Condor13, Candy Maldonado Martin (5pts)- Thole (10pts)- Grant77 Carrera (10pts)- Barney(10pts)- Travis (7pts)- LTBF Lake (10Pts) - Bench (10pts)
  14. What's wrong with Biagini? It's a perfect time to pitch him.
  15. There's so many variables to take into account, but a large would generally be too short on a guy that height. I'm 6'6 and large shirts come down to my belly button. I look pretty much like J.A. Happ for comparison.
  16. I specifically debunked that argument in the post that you quoted and obviously didn't read. We can safely assume that taller guys like Tulowitzki and Saunders can fill out an XL shirt. Are they obese? Certainly not and everyone knows a few guys like them.
  17. Has Carrera played himself into your 2017 plans? Perhaps as part of a time share with Pompey or a cheaper FA outfielder. I don't completely trust him, but the batting line is very nice and not BABIP fueled, not to mention positive value in the field and on the base paths.
  18. I'd rather make a reasonable deal for Jay Bruce at the deadline and leave it at that if the alternative is giving Reddick a big contract.
  19. I'd give up SRF in a second for Gray to be honest, probably Tellez too.
  20. It was just a quick example to demonstrate my point.
  21. I don't like that attitude. What if you get a controllable young player like Myers or Gray? There's always a good deal to be had.
  22. I can't understand why they don't have a variety either. There's enough info out there to at least get a ballpark (pardon the pun) estimate of shirt sizes.
  23. I don't mean to call you a liar or anything, but that isn't possible if you know a normal number of people and this chart is remotely accurate. Before you say you don't know fat people, consider that not all people have narrow shoulders and a small chest like the great majority of people who are also 6 feet tall and can actually fit a medium. My dad went from 6'3 230 to a pretty sickly looking 180 pounds with leukemia and his shirt size didn't change from XXL.
  24. How tall are you? Just curious. You obviously don't know very many thin people over 6 feet tall. Many of them wear XL or XXL. Every man in my family is at least that tall, so I have a pretty good idea.
