  1. The playoffs won't be easy to make for the Mariners. The playoffs will be easy to make for the Blue Jays.
  2. Haha its on a Thursday afternoon in September ugh couldn't fly down for a weekday game unfortunately.
  3. Is this season the last year the A's are playing in the Coliseum? If so, want to plan a trip to the Bay Area this spring/summer haha.
  4. The A's have added both Stripling and Alex Wood from the Giants, so probably a good spot for both arms to build back their value with a guaranteed rotation spot. As well if either have a strong first half, definitely trade bait at the deadline.
  5. Meh I wouldn't think the Yankees suck. They could still be a team that could pull off 90+ wins if they get lucky and stay healthy. I don't see them being worse than they were last season. Right now I think they sit between 85-88 wins, similar to the Blue Jays. Red Sox really haven't done much to move the needle but if some of their young core players take a step forward and they get some bounce backs from Tyler O'Neill, Trevor Story and Lucas Giolito, they could pull off a .500 season or better.
  6. Great move by the Orioles. Burnes actually gives them a legit No. 1 starter, which is what they have been lacking. This definitely moves the needle for them. AL East just got a lot tougher.
  7. Maybe was a glitch on Fantrax. Yeah I see it now. Thanks!
  8. Says invitation was revoked lol. PM me the password and I'll sign up.
  9. I have no issue with Turner. Only a one-year deal and he's been one of those guys who has aged like fine wine. He put up real solid numbers last season. Just hope he doesn't fall off a clip at his age though. Still think this teams needs a big power bat. They failed to address that need so far in the offseason and from the looks of it, won't be adding a guy like Soler or JDM. Gotta hope Vlad bounces back power wise, or else this lineup might not have a bat who could hit 30+ home runs.
  10. Blue Jays were also one of the favourites in Vegas to win the World Series in 2013.
  11. I'll join
  12. Frenchsoup would go crazy!

    Yeah they were up 24-10 I believe at that point in the third quarter. Should have taken the points. Campbell is a hot head and I said that to others heading into this game that he could screw things up for them. If the Lions kicked those two FGS, they win 37-34 and the 49ers on each of those drives start at least at the 25 yard line, instead of further up.

    If you bet the Lions money line before the game, they were 4 to 1 and you got an early pay out since they were up by 17 pts. Double dipped and put some money on San Fran in the 3rd quarter when they were down 2 touchdowns and were pay 5 to 1.

    Dan Campbell is an idiot.
  16. If you're in win-now mode, I would. If Judge plays a majority of the season, he's a huge difference maker for your squad.
  17. Gallo signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the Nationals on Tuesday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
  18. Would be disappointing if the Jays don't land one of Soler or JDM now. Pederson at under $10M would have been really nice. Could have easily beat that offer if they wanted to.
  19. At least with Bauer, he has #1-2 starter upside and displayed he could pitch at that level in the past. German would be an erratic #4-5 starter.
  20. It's all politics when it comes to certain players. No doubt Sheff should have been in. Shocked to see Mauer get in on the first ballot. He put up some really fantastic seasons with Minnesota but he also didn't have the longevity as some other players, which would be mine concern. Deserves to be in Cooperstown, but not on the first ballot IMO. Hope Russell Martin could get in, but I'm sure he'll have to wait a decade. Beltre should have been 100% voted in. One of the best overall third basemen we have seen in the game overall.
  21. Wagner, Jone and Beltran should definitely get in next season.
  22. Back when he signed that Mariners deal, were they using WAR? He also came off like a 48 HR season with the Dodgers, so yeah never came even close to those numbers with the Mariners. Those were probably the expectations of fans and the sports media. A lot of emphasis was still placed on traditional offensive statistics like BA, HR and RBI totals across baseball amongst writers and in the sports media. As well, don't think much emphasis was placed on defensive abilities as it is today when it comes to contracts and determining how really valuable a player is.
  23. Meh, most late inning relievers were getting between $10-12M AAV per season. Chapman can still be electric and a huge weapon out of the pen. $10.5M for one-year is a great deal IMO. Pirates likely will use him as trade bait at the deadline. If he has another strong season, teams will be calling to add a big arm like Chapman to the pen.
