Does not need surgery. Good. Baltimore fans can breathe a sigh of relief. What % of players who see Dr. Andrews to test for TJS actually get it done? It seems like a lot, so I'm a bit surprised, but maybe you only remember bad news.
Reyes is ok at SS. His bat is a huge plus there, so unless he was terrible, I'd say don't move him. In a couple of years I could see a move to 3rd, but not yet.
To be fair, I think he was talking about the general vibe which I agree with. Most projected around .500 but basically made it seem like they had no chance to contend which is not true.
Oh ya, but are you of legal gambling age is the question? Either way it's fun putting some dollars down to follow some teams you think are underrated. Miami also looks like a good pick, their offense should return to being awful, but considering the O/U wins was sixty something it seems like a good pick! Good job.
Colorado is a team to watch out for. I've made some $$ betting on them already, although part of that is cause Blackmon and Tulo are playing out of their minds, so I'm not proclaiming myself a genius just yet.
He doesn't get a lot of strikeouts and pitches in coors field, but from a fantasy standpoint would you take him over Quintana? In a standard league, K's,wins,era,whip,saves.
Actually I think batting average is trending downward if I'm not mistaken. So presumably ERA is as well, maybe use something a little lower than 3.8 and that would affect the results a decent amount. It sounds like he wants to bet on over/unders, so average ERA is of course really important to get correct.
Not everyone. I do partly because he's on my fantasy team. I mean if it was a hamstring pull or something I would probably like that, but the possibility of TJS sucks for anyone.
They need to give Stroman a shot. There's a chance, probably a small chance, that he's worse than Happ. But he could be decent, I don't see why they wouldn't at least give him a few starts to see how he looks up here.
I wonder if he's just going to try and play through it to be honest. He's in the prime of his career on a team that believe they are contenders. Although the whole thing seems weird- if he might have a UCL tear why are they even putting him in to DH (he has 2 hits so far so maybe he's ok!?!?)
No I specifically avoided saying that lol. I'm just sharing some optimism. Last season the board was way too high on them, and this season it seems they are too low on them, in my opinion.
Let's be honest here, we are all mad they didn't do anything in the off-season which is frustrating but they're still pretty good. The Jays have an elite lineup and the return of Hutchison has made their rotation somewhat respectable. The defence seems to not make boneheaded plays like what we saw last year, and their bullpen is off to a rough start but I think we can all agree their pen will be fine for the long haul.
I wouldn't consider them favourites, but I wouldn't count them out for a division title either.
Stroman looked good! Fastball doesn't seem to have lots of life, but he can clearly locate it very well. I'd like to see him start, but he's a candidate to be a long term closer IMO.
Wow ya I hope he's ok. Despite him being on a rival never want to hear that especially from a good player.
Dr. Andrews, 2 of the worst words in baseball.
Make sure all your stats are projections, I think you know this but didn't put it in your post. Also I'm confused why you chose that weighting for pitchers. Seems like a good start though.
