  1. They don't use the same metric. fWAR is calculated differently for relievers
  2. Where do you get your in game stats like batted ball velocity and win expectancy?
  3. He was literally the best poster here for a while then disappeared. I assumed he just got bored and left
  4. Devlin does this weird thing where he pauses for an astronomical amount of time between each word... Like he can't find the right word, but for each word in the sentence. Is that how he does the raptors games?
  5. Gibby showing some faith in his players. I think everyone in this board would have pinch hit for him there.
  6. Barry f***s that s*** up so often that Buck actually says "good job Barry" when he nails it
  7. well you did. to get an 80 grade a player must be better than 99.5% of players. a 70 is better than 95%. Say there are about 1000 professional outfielders through out the majors and minors, an 80 defender would be in the top 5 and a 70 defender would be in the top 50. So the question is: is Pillar more of a top 5ish type of defender or more of a top 50ish? I think we all know the answer to that. Maybe his real defensive grade is something like 78
  8. it was like the opposite of the dickey trade. A bunch of speculation of what would be fair, then the real deal comes out and it's way better for us than any of us thought it would be.
  9. The hell is designated off of the 25 man supposed to mean anyways? This makes it sound like he's dfa, He was optioned...
  10. Such a prototypical dickey inning
  11. this would probably work better closer to the end of the season where the outcome of these other games has a much higher direct impact on the jays. It's hard to get too excited about these other games yet, we all know boston and baltimore are going to win more than they lose over the next 6 weeks
  12. We carry the worst backup catcher in the league just to catch the knuckle ball so Martin doesnt have to. We need wins right now and Martin has said he doesnt like catching the knuckler, he was demonstrably bad at it last time, and he believes it affects his hitting which is reason enough to just leave this alone. Worry about the post season if and when we get there
  13. Absolutely horrible idea. Players can stand where ever the hell they want and that is fantastic. Want 9 infielders and no one in the outfield? fine.
  14. It might be time for the board to do a mid season top prospects list again
  15. Reducing the number of pitching changes by forcing relievers to stay in longer would also cut commercial time.
  16. Instead of removing some of the pitching changes, why not remove the slow waddle out to the mound that every manager does before a pitching change. They don't have to waddle out to the outfield to change the RF why do they have to waddle out to change the pitcher... Just have the pitcher run in from the pen. And then don't break for 2 minutes for commercials every time there is a pitching change that is ridiculous. This would save at least 15 minutes on average per game I think without changing the game completely.
  17. but how does that work if the kid leaves Japan several years before the end of high school? What if he left Japan when he was 5 years old instead of 16, then could he come to MLB immediately? how many years must you play in Japan before you are subject to the rules of the agreement?
  18. Since he is 16 if he moved somewhere like Germany or whatever could we sign him immediately (as soon as he established residence outside of Japan)
  19. Language changes so much over time, retarded just doesn't mean what it used to. Literally no one would use it anymore to describe someone with a mental illness. Retarded just means "really stupid" and anyone who is offended by its usage in that context is totally out of touch
  20. why cant he be optioned to AAA?
  21. Perhaps the ability to challenge strikes would finally put an end to that nonsense.
  22. Price is leading the AL in xFIP, 4th in FIP, and even his ERA is top 30 despite the high babip and hr/9. I don't get how some people say Price isn't worth it, hes among the top pitchers in the game during a 'down' year
