  1. I would probably vote no for what its worth.
  2. As Hultzen's owner I'd love to agree... the injury concerns are real tho and hurt any ranking of him.
  3. I think what he means is too many people don't do this and just try to use it as a mostly definite number. I don't share view, but I think that's what he is saying.
  4. He knows the last arbitrator to go against the MLB ruling (Braun) got fired rather quickly
  5. I'm sure that's too low for him to accept. I'd do 42/3 with a 14M option (with a healthy buyout) in a heartbeat.
  6. We need to jump on Jimenez ASAP (get negotiating). I see some big value there.
  7. Man I hope he can stay on the field for the next few years. He is just a joy to watch pitch. That slider is totally filthy. I'm not usually all that pumped when we add RP's, but I was gitty when we traded for him.
  8. completely understandable, not high profile. Hahn is an interesting story. Kepler is just a guy I though might break out (drafted right at the end of last years MiLB draft)
  9. I have to cut down Kepler and Hahn. Anyone interested? I actually like Hahn, but there is just no room. Best offer takes them, even MiLB or Waiver pick upgrade may get it done.
  10. Do we have an official roster cut-down date?
  11. http://pmd.fan590.com/audio_on_demand-3/Kevin-Seitzer-with-Mike-Wilner-fan-20140108-Interview.mp3 I'm only about half way through, but I don't think we're going to see a PULL DAT BALL approach.
  12. I'm a MAN! I can kill a f***ing cougar! *cough cough* (with a rifle) leave the apex predators alone people. We're screwing with them enough without hunting them for fun. OT, I would totally ride a donkey around, that's just awesome.
  13. Maddux was just jacked up on roids... only reason he was good. oh wait... Maddux should get bonus votes for pitching in the steroid era.
  14. That projection seems low (just by the eye test, nothing more). If you think that's all he'll provide, going with a cheaper option makes sense. But what Ubaldo does have over those cheap options, is the 3+ WAR upside. The upside is important to me, even if its costs some cash.
  15. 14M annually gives lots of room for surplus value. Sign him ASAP AA.
  16. Wouldn't that just be a kick in the nuts... Jays second on Tanaka... immediately give that money to s*** bag Santana
  17. Time will tell which of us is closer. I just see the upside he has vs the floor he needs to achieve to not make the contract an albatross makes for a good buy.
  18. I think you are mis-understanding what I was saying there. 1.8 WAR per year is what he has to produce to be worth the contract (base on the 9M / WAR figure that you may or may not agree with). I think Ubaldo is a 3 win pitcher for the next few years personally. He also has the upside to be a 4 - 5 win guy any given year.
  19. Even at that contract it makes some good sense to me. He only needs to be good for 1.8 WAR a year (using 9M per WAR) to break even and he could potentially provide some surplus. He has a history for being a 3 win player with the exception of 2012. I don't think you bank on 3 wins per year for each of the 4 years, but I think he's a decent bet to be worth that contract. Given what else we would through out there in the rotation, its probably worth giving a contract to a guy even if it doesn't come with big surplus value.
  20. Yeah I don't get that either. Our depth is fine. Our top end quality is bad.
  21. 2012 looks like an outleir to me. Pretty much all of his stats regressed to his recent (5 years) career means in 2013, including his FIP and xFIP. If the market doesn't like him and you can get him on a 4 year deal, I don't see the disaster you do.
  22. common man, his shark fighting background has given him monster mental toughness.
  23. I'd have a hard time projecting him as a #2, but I think he's going to produce much better than a #5 and that's all that we'll count on him for.
