    He was a fairly moderate Republican probably destined to be a relatively inconsequential one termer like his dad. Nine/Eleven happened and he became the face of the war on terror and no need to rehash any further...

    Ouch that trade was already a really though sell to the Pirates fan base. This practically guarantees that Liriano is going to outperform Hutch this year and make the Pirates look cheap and short-sighted.

    He's not wrong. If you assume a bit of positive regression from Stroman and a bit of negative regression from Sanchez (both reasonable assumptions), they are all pretty similar. It's a good deep rotation that might not have a true ace but might also be 5 deep with strong number two types.

    I used to think Anthony Gose had a really good floor because of the speed he brought to the OF and to the base paths. Figure he was at worst an excellent 4th OF. Is there a cautionary tale there about Alford? You could argue that Gose's physical tools WERE that of an excellent 4th OF and that it's only a bad makeup that kept him from reaching his floor and you could further argue that all Alford has to do is keep a good head on his shoulders to reach his floor. But even thout what happened to Gose isn't predictive of what will happen to Alford, I would still argue that there's a cautionary tale there, albeit a broad one, about overestimating a player's floor. Hardly any prospects have a floor of productive major leaguer. It's nearly always lower than that.

    His positional versatility is nice. The 270 wOBA he put up in 99 games last year really isn't. Between that and this release, my guess is that there's just not much left in that bat.

    He literally says in the video that he recorded this AFTER he was done his workouts no doubt as a pre-emptive answer to those who s*** on any athlete who posts themselves having (gasp) non work related fun on the Internet. I really regret posting the video. I should have guessed it would trigger a bunch of smug indignation (not a dig at you specifically).

    I enjoy Jack Armstrong but the guy sounds like he's been having a decade long stroke.

    Overall, the team's look great over the last few games.

    s***... I had forgotten all about him.
  11. KingKat
    Kind of a non-story unless it's really serious. Wasn't going to make the team anyways.
  12. KingKat
    Must be the Arrencibia league.
  13. KingKat
    Looked good but I wouldn't conclude anything from such a short throw.
  14. KingKat
    He was a longshot. With Edwin and Carlos Santana on the team, a third 1B/DH guy on the roster made no sense. He would have needed an injury.

    O.K. I only just saw the thread and I also see that Gary has already apologized for his tasteless joke and offered to delete it. I think we can probably just let this one go.
  16. KingKat
    I'm pretty sure that was established to be the case.

    Atkins projects 400 to 550 ABs for Pearce. http://www.sportsnet.ca/590/jeff-blair-show/the-jeff-blair-show-march-24-10am-5/

    Hosmer is the Chick Fill-A sandwich of baseball. White, mediocre and criminally overrated.
  19. KingKat
    You could have had Kimbrel + though.
  20. KingKat
    Was he even in the running? I mean I love the potential he flashes but his 2016 didn't earn him this assignment. I'm not sure he was ahead of Happ for this gig much less ahead of Sanchez and Estrada.

    Too bad Dinger quit the LOD and denied us the opportunity to gloat about this.
  22. KingKat
    Maybe this is optimistic but I expect him to be getting more starts than Smoak from day one.
  23. KingKat
    Seems pretty clear that Pearce is going to be a 1B only at least to start the season. I don't really have a problem with that though the flexibility would have been nice.

    That a very interesting read with a pretty damning conclusion. I'll be really interested to read his follow up pieces.
