    Please give it a rest.

    If he ends up in San Francisco, I'm pretty o.k. with that.
  3. KingKat
    Could be a good asset but you had to give up SOMETHING with actual value to get Melvin at such favorable terms and with other teams reportedly competing for him to boot.

    What's with the ridiculously early starts here and in Cleveland? Doesn't MLB know that people have fantasy lineups to set? I missed a Trea Turner start in PL because of this ********.
  5. KingKat
    You've got a lot of nerve saying something so sensible and reasonable around these parts.
  6. KingKat
    He's good for depth and might play an important role next year. I'm fine with him working on stuff in AAA for now.
  7. KingKat
    It was a pretty common Dogg trope on the old board to get players name mixed up. Seems like he's not even maintaining the pretense of a new identity anymore and slipping into hid old habits.
  8. KingKat
    So are you actually denying that you are MetaliJay?

    Can someone explain the Mariners side of this to me? Assuming Storen refused his assignment, wasn't he about to become a free agent? Couldn't the Mariners have had a shot at Storen for league minimum? Why take on the Storen salary? The only money they are saving here is the league minimum it would have cost to sign Storen. Did they really want him so bad that they couldn't risk him possibly going to another team? Unless they were already planning to DFA Benoit and considered him a sunk cost or unless there was already an agreement in place before the Storen DFA this doesn't really make sense to me.

    No but when you DFA a guy, you have to be pretty happy just to not be taking a loss. This is a worthwhile swap. I'd rather give the 8 million to the guy with the K/9 over 10.
  11. KingKat
    Walk off
  12. KingKat
    Proud of yourself?
  13. KingKat
    Devon Travis hasn't even played a full MLB season yet. Guy looks nothing like a rookie.
  14. KingKat
    I never think to do anything in this league.
  15. KingKat
    Just out of curiosity, just how Finnish are you Jonn? Is it your first language?
  16. KingKat
    Oh THAT Josh Naylor.
  17. KingKat
    Well I guess it doesn't matter. Five million is nothing. This is like a higher stakes version of the Grilli trade.
  18. KingKat
    So am I to understand that the 5 million commitment is the total Blue Jays commitment for 2016 and 2017? That's insanely cheap if true. Anyone know how it breaks down? Is it nothing this year and 5 million next?
  19. KingKat
    Well Revere kind of sucks and they don't bat from the same side or have the same skill set but they're both um... athletic? That's something right.
  20. KingKat
    So just a short side platoon guy for you?
  21. KingKat
    Is it fair to say that Melvin is in essence this year's Revere?
  22. KingKat
    Well I think Both get DH starts but yes I agree with you that it's hardly a foregone conclusion that Bautista would get more DH starts than Saunders. Like you I expect the opposite.
  23. KingKat
    He'll be playing against every LHP. I think Smoak will still see some occasional DH action against righties pushing Melvin (or somebody else who needs rest) to the bench.
  24. KingKat
    He always had tons of power. He hit 147 homeruns in the Minor Leagues. Never manage to make the jump to the majors is all. That isn't to say he isn't taking steroids but there's been a lot of power in that bat his whole career. That's what earned him MLB opportunities in the first place.
  25. KingKat
    Oh come on... You set up that joke perfectly. So much that I wondered if you were doing it on purpose but no I guess that was giving you too much credit. Enjoy being Grant, Grant and I'll continue to ignore you like I was before.
