    I'm sure he is a nice guy. No big deal. He seems to know his stuff.

    Why is that so bizzare? I'm making an arguable point (maybe it's not a popular one and perhaps it's wrong but it is certainly arguable) and he dismisses it as "ridiculous" before giving me a mini-lecture on what stats I should use. Me calling him an ******* seemed warranted to me. Or is that out of line? lol
  3. Terminator
    How do you get a 2.8 WAR for Capuano? He's done that once in his career and it was nearly 10 years ago.
  4. Terminator
    He's a big boy, he can take it.

    Steamer projects Happ with 1 WAR and CC with 1.6. Oliver has those numbers reversed, 1 WAR for CC and 1.6 for Happ. Numbers taken from fangraphs. And I used past WAR to illustrate how Happ being as good of a pitcher isn't such a "ridiculous" claim as he's basically done it in the most recent past, not as a predictive measure. You're kind of an *******, btw.
  6. Terminator
    Not joking. Projections are split on who will be better next season. Past two years have been very close in WAR. Capuano is 35, Happ is 31. It's a lot closer than you think.
  7. Terminator
    No it is not ridiculous. The past two seasons Capuano has put up 3.2 to Happ's 2.9. The projections are split on who will be better next season. A 35 year old Capuano may have the edge, but if so, it isn't by much.
  8. Terminator
    Chris Capuano is about as good as JA Happ who inspires little confidence. Not sure what the appeal is there.
  9. Terminator
    He's one of two options?
  10. Terminator
    So it's worth 22.5 Million? That seems way to high.
  11. Terminator
    How much is a 2nd round pick worth? If you use the 7.5 WAR number then he only needs 5.2 WAR over three years.
  12. Terminator
    Would a big market team get involved if he's only looking for one year? I know the Yanks wouldn't but maybe the Dodgers or Sox?
  13. Terminator
    I think that is good news as it probably takes them out of the running for Burnett, right?
  14. Terminator
    Looks like he got 2 years and about 8 million.
  15. Terminator
    That's actually not too bad. Especially considering that we have the most likely chance of all AL East teams of improving the team between now and the end of the season.
  16. Terminator
    So if the method of assembling the team is to your liking but the team ends up sucking on the field you'd enjoy the season? I wouldn't. I don't like the methods the FO is using to assemble the team but if the end result is a WS I'll be quite pleased. My guess is that it would excite you more than you think.
  17. Terminator
    So if the Jays win this year it won't "do a whole lot" for you because you don't like the way the team was assembled?
  18. Terminator
    If we sign Ubaldo/Santana/etc. I don't know if there is a need for Capuano other than for depth as I'm not convinced he'll be any better than Happ this upcoming season. But if we don't sign one of the top remaining FA's, then Capuano would be a fallback option.
  19. Terminator
    Waiting out the market is the new market inefficiency.
  20. Terminator
    How many runs, if any, would we save by doing that?
  21. Terminator
    That is not a pretty picture.
  22. Terminator
    To add, they are coming off of a 3rd place finish. They could be in the midst of suffering the consequences of their past actions right now and we just don't realize it because it's year one.
  23. Terminator
    Good move by the Dodgers.
  24. Terminator
    The population of the predator can become so extreme that not only does it pose risks to other species, like you said, but to the predator itself. Competition for depleting food and resources will eventually occur and then you can see a massive population crash among the predator. So while it seems counter intuitive, hunting mountain lions could, and probably does, ensure the species' long term survival.

    He said he was sick of the whole process and didn't want to be involved with all the preachiness that was coming out of the BBWA in the way they were voting.
