    Yeah but how do you pick a guy hitting a he 5 games in a row... The odds of that are pretty ridiculous. Melky was a panic pick for me like 10 minutes before the game started. Was going to take Edwin, but he seems like his timing has been really off since that game where he hit everything to the track.
  2. John_Havok
    Sure, but look who was up. Valencia who has horrible numbers against RHP, then Pillar who just has horrible numbers all around, and then Reyes with 2 out.
  3. John_Havok
    That's pretty thin.
  4. John_Havok
    Yes, he absolutely should be. No reason to put a kid in the pen unless he's failed as a starter, which he hasn't yet.
  5. John_Havok
    As a starter though, you certainly want command because he won't be throwing 98 all game long. Yes, throwing 98 with movement will be enough to get guys out in 1-2 innings as a potentially great reliever, but to succeed as a starter he'll have to go through the lineup 3 times minimum and guys will be able to lay off once they see his stuff a few times if he doesn't have good command. But then, that's where his secondary pitches have to come into play also.

    Control just means you can hit the strike zone but not quality strikes consistently on the edges and exactly where you want it, which is command. So if you have commad, by definition you have control, but you can have control without command.

    Woot, Jose homered agin! I'm on the board...

    I don't either. It's too bad he'll spend half the year on the DL again next year for his inevitable back strain. A healthy Lin platooned with Valencia has a good chance at being decent, I think we've gone over that in the offseason thread. The key is keeping Lind and Lawrie healthy so Valencia doesn't get exposed to RHP to much.
  9. John_Havok
    Fixed that for you.

    All depends on the waiver process, you know this. Whether Janssen or Rasmus have been placed on, and subsequently cleared waivers hasn't been made public. And if they were claimed, if the claiming team isn't offering anything other than cash or some D prospect, trading them doesn't make sense. I mean you could argue that a D prospect or cash is better than nothing when they walk in free agency, but it's so marginally infinitesimally better it's not really something you need to make a priority
  11. John_Havok
    Yup. No excuse for this.

    Having spent a decent amount of time in both Seattle and San Francisco, both are amazing. The traffic in SF is worse, but also way more fun with the hills. And if you like people-watching, San Fran wins hands down, there's freaks everywhere, but any weirdos I talked too seemed like really nice people. it's also expensive as f*** though. Seattle is definitely cheaper, still really nice and I find the traffic really easy. Lots of bridges and tolls though but the scenery is great.

    I'd like to see Pompey get more than 600 PA above AA before he even sniffs the majors. September call up next year at the earliest unless he's on so much fire that he forces their hand.
  14. John_Havok
    At least Dickey had a mindset, I don't think Lind's qualifies.

    That's why cozart is ranked higher than. That many more routine plays would outrank the 14 harder ones. People need to remember these rankings aren't absolute. They're just saying that these guys are having great defensive seasons, based on a set of certainly imprecise measures, of which cozart has had more chances and not made mistakes. They don't mean cozart is the best defensive SS.
  16. John_Havok
    What's the difference on each players # of defensive chances this year? That would probably explain the rankings
  17. John_Havok
    He ain't lying. A sacrifice like that is exactly what's needed to right the Jays' ship. Do it King. Take one for the team.

    If you had sex with her, you would probably have been declared missing.

    A super moderator... Clearly
  22. John_Havok
    If you've ever seen her, you wouldn't be bragging about it. She's the size of a Volkswagen
  23. John_Havok
    He wouldn't have anything to say otherwise.

    Mexicans don't fix anything.
  25. John_Havok
    No Ken, you probably shouldn't. But I'm just saying that knowing your tech level
