  1. Whoever threw that pitch was DFA'd before it hit the catcher's mitt... That's not how they roll in them parts...
  2. If Smoak has even a modicum of plate discipline I don't really see the Francisco comp. At least he can work himself into fastball counts...
  3. What does Anemic0ffence think about this anti-gun propaganda, clearly engineered by Obama?
  4. I think they'll be fine if they keep Jeffrey Loria the f*** away from ownership...
  5. So, what changed for John Farrell between 2013 and 2014? Essentially the same assets, exactly the same manager and drastically different results... So, with the same assets, the same manager went from winning the World Series (sorry, let's pause while I throw up in my mouth a little...) to dead last in the AL East. Now, there are objectively bad managers (Cito and his absolute hatred of rookies, Farrell and his torrid love affair with sac bunts... etc) who still manage to win despite obvious, glaring mistakes because they have either a good team, have the stars align or have a mediocre team who plays well over their heads for a season. What I'm saying is that certainly, making completely moronic decisions (batting your best hitter 6th, sac bunting in the 2nd inning...) can certainly HURT a team, there aren't any strategies that managers can employ to get more out of a team than the players can provide over the long haul.
  6. Yep, it's almost as though the manager couldn't miraculously win games when he wasn't presented with the assets to do so... Interesting...
  7. Yep, if only they'd had Maddon to lead them to a stellar 77-85 record this year...
  8. I can't imagine anyone has ever typed/said that before...
  9. I know that shouldn't bother me, but it bothers me...
  10. Three years is about as long a deal as I'd be comfortable with for Melky, I just don't see him aging well at all...
  11. So very much this. What's the general feeling around these parts between Fernandez and Hector Olivera? Both seem like upgrades at second, though neither seem like they'd be above average fielders. Olivera would probably be cheaper because of the age, but he does have a bit more power potential (in theory, hard to judge these Cuban folk!)
  12. We should definitely sign that Balbino kid up!
  13. I even typed that in Troy McClure's voice...
  14. Hey, Goins could be our late-inning defensive replacement! It's the part he was born to play, baby!
  15. I think the comment was about the Jays division of Rogers... The Jays basically print money for Rogers.
  16. http://www.postavy.cz/obrazky/homer-jay-simpson-24609.jpg
  17. Think he's got enough time to get residency and clear all the paperwork to be declared a free agent before the start of the 2015 season? I'm not too clear on how long that typically takes, but he's got to be cutting it close at this point... Would be a guy I'd be upset about letting get away, fills a present need and is entering the prime of his career...
  18. I don't even get who they're targeting with that product. Only old people read magazines, but old people hate technology... Doctor's offices aren't going to start handing out iPads to people in the waiting rooms, so seriously, who the f*** would buy this product, or even bother with the free trial period?
  19. Don't worry, Next Issue will save them!
  20. Anything that keeps Gose/Pillar out of my goddamn centre field next year is a-okay in my books.
  21. Yes, I'm familiar with AA's way of using the waiver wire...
  22. He came back for one day so he could retire as a Jay...
  23. Didn't think you could create a 100 page thread on the claiming of Bo Shultz?
