  1. He touches on Biagini a bit in the article, last year he put up 1.2 WAR but this year only projected for 0.2. Even getting to 0.7 WAR would up their projected placing to 10th overall.
  2. Thoughts on fangraphs positional power rankings for the Jays rotation and pen: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2017-positional-power-rankings-relief-pitchers-1-15/ http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2017-positional-power-rankings-bullpen-16-30/ http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2017-positional-power-rankings-starting-rotation-1-15/ http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2017-positional-power-rankings-starting-rotation-16-30/ They have the Jays ranked 16th in both rotation and pen. Too high? Too Low?
  3. Weighting would pretty much do that
  4. I'll send you a pm later if I'm still in the market. Thanks
  5. What's the rest of your roster look like? And 9 Teams? Everyone will have an all star team anyways
  6. Just saw the NFL owners voted 31-1 that the Raiders will be moving to Las Vegas after 2 more seasons in Oakland. So the NHL is there and the NFL will be. Is it just a matter of time now until MLB and/or the NBA show up?
  7. Really impressed with Delon Wright tonight. Needs a bit more bulk to help him when he goes into the lane but he's really on the right track.
  8. Some sort of simple weighting system would be ideal. Like 50% projections and 50% actual numbers. Would balance it out somewhat on breakout or slumping guys. If you go 100% on projections or 100% on actual numbers... any good / bad year by any player could skew things dramatically
  9. I can't see 53 being a regular number, that's got to be highly irregular. In 2015, they signed 17. 2014- 29 Cardinals in 2016... 29 2015... 13 2014.... 23
  10. If anyone has seasons tickets and won't be using them for some of the games from June 27-30 I'll be in town and looking for anything I can get my hands on.
  11. The most interesting thing I found from the article was that a car salesman said no to a guy who wanted 10 cars right away.
  12. Got out for my first round of the year yesterday. Felt good to swing despite the results.
  13. Seems to be a guy who could be an average CF defensively.... but his swing and miss is worrisome. 33% K rate in his debut of pro ball last year. Decent walk rate though.
  14. I hope Arenado did that on his own because if Leyland called for that bunt he's a f***ing moron
  15. Hence the catastrophic injury, which in Stanton case ... pretty much fits the bill or freakish and unlucky. Harper I'd probably be a bit wary of given his injury history, but still... even at 30 million per year he needs to average like 4-5 WAR to be worth it, depending on where the value is of WAR at that point. I think 4-5 WAR is pretty safe for either of those two for the majority of a 10 year deal
  16. Stroman taking a page out of Osuna's book with a pause in his leg kick a couple of times tonight.
  17. Sure, but why not? You're only going to lose a 1st and 2nd round pick to do it. Guys like Machado and Harper are the guys you actually want to spend big on. They'll still both be young enough that they'll probably provide good to great value for the first half of their deals at minimum, barring catastrophic injury. It's not like signing over 30 Rodriguez or over 30 Pujols to guaranteed lose-value deals.

    NHL Thread

    2-3 games tops. Komarov got 3 games for an elbow lastvyear, and another guy got 2 a few years ago for a similar type of elbow.
  19. My bad. I was pretty sure this entire thread aside from Gruber's Pillar-boner posts were all trolling and mockery.
  20. No kidding. With his defense we could be looking at a 10 WAR guy this year
  21. Kiermeier is better at everything than Pillar. Not substantially light years better, but better. Pillar is Kiermeier-lite. Also Pillar is over 1 year older. I dunno, 8.3 million isn't bad for a 4 WAR player, but in Pillar's case when it's 100% defense and no bat... I really don't think you need to lock him up long term. Defense doesn't drive arbitration paydays. Go year by year, pay him as little as possible and cut him loose when someone better comes along, which won't be long.
  22. The troll Force is strong in this one.
  23. Vlad Jr - low A full season Lansing. Alford - AA New Hampshire. SRF - could be AA or High A Dunedin. He split last year at Low A and High A and lit up High A, so it likely depends on his spring. MY personal bet is High A with a move up quick if he dominates. Urena - AA with a quick move up if he does well. Tellez- probably AAA Greene - AA Gourriel - AA
  24. The way they determine eligibility is quite forgiving. Basically, if you've heard of Jews, you can play for Israel.
  25. To be fair, nearly everything he says is dumn as s***
