  1. Lol the Knicks are hot garbage. The Raptors are having their way with them. I'm pretty sure they didn't score in the third quarter for like 10 minutes.
  2. Wat All of them were born in countries that are part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It's completely legitimate in their case.
  3. Navarro's only supposedly above-average tool, which we can't really quantify, is that he's a good game caller. He sucks at hitting, he's probably the slowest runner in baseball, his blocking is terrible and his framing is abysmal. I guess his throwing arm is okay. He seems like a decent dude, but he is a not a fun MLB player to watch. I will very much welcome a season where our catching depth chart does not include Thole or Navarro. Let's hope Jimenez is passable, but hey they could always rush Reese McGuire though that seems sub-optimal for someone who could actually be a regular in the future.
  4. Ugh, I would really dislike having Navarro back. AJ Jimenez can't really be worse than him, right? His defense should hopefully at least make him replacement level, as opposed to Navarro's. I believe Plawecki is a very good framer so I'd be on board with adding him, but I don't think the Mets will be so quick to give up a former top catching prospect for cheap; he'll only be 26 this year so there's still some room for growth.
  5. Iannetta went from bad pitch framer to nearly elite and then back to awful, if the latter is his true talent level then maybe he's closer to replacement level than a solid backup catcher. Also of note is that his offense fell off a cliff. He's had a weird career path.
  6. Who's replying to the question?
  7. Get back to me when Nogueira can grab a rebound with his two hands or properly box out someone at least 4 inches shorter than him.
  8. Aaron Sanchez continues setting unrealistic body standards for men.
  9. I feel like NJH realized this and was just trying to get proof of people actually suggesting such a deal. I think you meant decline. I'm not exactly sure how looks would regress anyways - postponing the use of makeup I guess?
  10. Nice. The rich man's Ryan Goins has been quite valuable to us.
  11. Aren't Jay Bruce and Michael Saunders essentially the exact same type of player? At least Bruce is more of a sure thing in terms of playing in over 130 games. Though obviously you'd rather have Saunders at $8 million or less (I'm guessing that's reasonably what he'll get?) versus Bruce at $13 million - wtf were the Mets doing when they exercised his team option?
  12. It's a great rotation 2-3 years ago, but most of those guys carry huge red flags now.
  13. How is this not a joke?
  14. It's almost as if Valanciunas is substantially better than Nogueira or something.
  15. That's such a Rays move. Nice signing.
  16. Right, my bad. I just wanted to use some generic bust with okay upside in the system that isn't worth anything.
  17. Vlad's upside is nice, but he's super far away, and there are already big question marks about his future position. He's likely to never provide the kind of value that McCutchen will provide in the next two years. There's a chance you trade him and that he becomes a spittin image of Vlad Sr. yes, but the odds are strongly against him. There's plenty of big name IFA signings with prodigious power and seemingly excellent bat to ball skills that flamed out. If the Pirates offer you McCutchen for Vlad Jr. + Matt Smoral and some other C or D level prospect I think you take it and run.
  18. This just in: team trading star player on team-friendly contract demands opposing team's top prospects.
  19. Nogueira was so, so bad all night long. He was getting abused by Felicio on the glass. He literally just couldn't grab a rebound with two hands even when it fell in his lap.
  20. IMO, healthy Strasburg > Bumgarner > Marte, but since that isn't really the case I'd go Bumgarner > Strasburg > Marte. Although perhaps we should be weary of pitchers who have been workhorses from an early age, if guys like Felix, Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee and James Shields are any indication.
  21. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uAz9R58lpkPNj1jjE4eyf3xQyF8GVaIikwquSHGF5X8/edit#gid=1370595464 Generally if you search "spreadsheet" in any of the board leagues, the link will usually show up in the first page from someone who previously requested it.
  22. I've always thought this, it's just that Nogueira seemingly doesn't get any better even with the undeserved increased playing time. Poeltl comes in and you can notice how much better he is at getting himself into good positions all the time, whether it is on the glass or making himself open to save one of the guards who are driving and run out of room. It obviously has a lot to do with him being a noodle, but Nogueira just gets destroyed by opposing bigmen. He rarely ever gets a hard fought defensive rebound, if it doesn't land in his hands most likely he allows the offensive rebound or tries to tap it away to a teammate - he has an insane wingspan, he should really try catching the f***ing basketball! I'll give him that he's good at using his length sometimes to pick up blocks when he has space - on the contrary if he's close to a defender it's almost always a foul which he never agrees with - and he can be a helpful PnR partner for Lowry who just lobs the ball close the rim while drawing 3 defenders and it's as easy as an NBA alley-oop gets.
