    With a pitcher with his injury history a four year deal would likely not be very smart to offer him, it's also the AL East and while I like JJ a bit more than some he's probably not going back to his Cy Young contending years. Edit: He's also likely not accepting a long deal because he needs to prove he's worth more, which is why he might accept the QO for one year.
  2. Orgfiller
    He hasn't been as bad as his ERA suggests, if he accepts a QO there would be no problem with that. Yes he's injury prone, but he has good stuff and could give pretty decent value next year. I think currently there is a spot for Hutch, assuming JJ stays, we probably keep due to age/salaries Dickey and Buerhle, so we have those three plus probably Morrow if he has no setbacks. Rogers back to the pen or trade him if some team wants him as their 5th starter, I don't think he'll have trouble gaining a spot unless something goes wrong from here onto next ST.

    wat Is dog porn a bannable offense? Plus, the bulldog's not even the one doing the f***ing.

    A weak single up the middle proves nothing of the middle infielders, seeing as it was lucky for the ball to make it through a hole. Also, if you're going there, a walk on a wild pitch tests pitcher, infielders, outfielders, catchers AND the baserunner.

    Lol at the Walrus, that's just awful.

    I lol'ed at this: scout: Dangerous count for Erik Bedard; Maicer Izturis is a dead-red fastball hitter, with a .728 OPS against them this season and .622 against everything else. Edit: this was back in the Maicer AB.

    I have no idea, my brother got it from a friend at his workplace, I think it's an mlb.com video, so maybe if you search along the lines of "top 50 HR" or something it might appear, can't really help you out other than that.

    J.P. Book it

    Is it really rebuilding if they do it all the time though? If the current core of players pans out they might have one or two contending seasons, and by the time players near their FA years they'll go ahead and do a firesale as usual. It's really not a terrible way to run the team, except it attracts no fanbase whatsoever, and in fact just tears it apart every time they do it.

    I have a video of the top 50 longest HR's of the 2012 season, Stanton has 5 including # 1, which was a 494 ft bomb to CF, Stanton at Coors is unfair, I think of those 5, 3 were hit there. However Stanton at Fenway will be too easy, with the Green Monster he doesn't even have to hit the ball that hard.

    Ace. Relievers. Think about that.

    Posting all the way from Havana and I don't even get an honorable mention!?! thef***isthisshit.jpg

    Remember when we thought the market inefficiency for closers was that they needed to have tattoos, goggles or a distinct mean face on? I think it may just be the other way around! Look at the ace relievers in that list, those guys for the most part are clean, no tattoos, nice guys, vetrins, know the game. I think this guy may have just figured out the way to pick out effective ace relievers! Sorry to break it to you guys, but Cecil won't make it, there might still be time for others.
  17. Orgfiller
    You completely missed my point, I'm saying that these guys essentially busted out as starters, so they found comfort in short outing situations, they didn't come up as highly regarded relievers from the start. Heck, if Aaron Sanchez' control doesn't ever recover he might turn into the next Kimbrel, it really isn't hard to understand, relievers come out of nowhere.
  18. Orgfiller
    I think people have to find a middle ground here, obviously it makes no sense to keep relievers at their highest value when some team could potentially give us a solid player in return for them, just about anyone in the org can replace them. Then there's this idea that people get that relievers are going to get us a team's best prospect, nothing is set in stone, I could still be wrong, but teams value their top prospects just as much as anyone and for obvious reasons. You trade these relievers for any kind of valuable piece that you might get back, seeing as they are easily replaceable, but people should not be disappointed because the return player isn't a 5 WAR 3B under team control, or some team's best prospect, that just isn't happening.
  19. Orgfiller
    3B/Corner OF, but I think Detroit moved him there because of Cabrera, which brings his value down a little. But again, a bunch of relievers isn't netting the team's best prospect, not even close.
  20. Orgfiller
    You realize that Janssen was a failed starter right, Cecil too. Just about anyone can replace those guys, maybe Romero ends up completely flaming out as a starter and becomes a good reliever, it really IS that easy to get a decent reliever, and as already pointed out, they are very unpredictable, look at Rodney, Jim Johnson this year.
  21. Orgfiller
    Brb trading Buxton for Janssen, Delabar, Cecil + Pillar, the Twins need pitchers right?
  22. Orgfiller
    Yeah, but I don't see Detroit trading their one good prospect for a bunch of relievers, has he been sucking this year? This only maybe/sometimes works when players are at their lowest perceived value (Ex. Colby Rasmus whose situation was worse since the manager drove him away from the team).
  23. Orgfiller
    This, team GM's aren't idiots, no one trades their top prospects for relievers, unless those relievers are Aroldis Chapman or maybe Kimbrel.
  24. Orgfiller
    I too think this has something to do with it. Most top pitching prospects these days are highly touted because of their K rates in the minors, a lot of those times you'll see their repertoire is a good mid to high 90's fastball, a second out pitch, and then depending on how advanced probably a 3rd fringe pitch which they have to develop more. Same with kids that are being drafted, most first round pitchers can already touch mid 90's with some going above.

    Sac fly, we'll take it, atta boy Brett!
