  1. Lol @ Jon Heyman. He's a lefty.
  2. Pretty sure you didn't mean Seth Smith.
  3. I'm not saying he or Kopech are slam dunks either, but I'm arguing that it's definitely possible and defensible that they viewed Moncada as a generational talent with loud tools across the board like many other scouts have, and thus chose to go with someone with considerably higher upside than all of the Nats' prospects along with Kopech who also represents a high upside player, allegedly undeveloped secondary offerings or not. I don't think anyone here is saying that either of these guys are sure bets to become superstars, but the raw talent and ability that they possess give them a big edge over the other prospects being offered.
  4. It most certainly is not substantially better if you believe that Moncada is the superior talent to all involved, with Kopech being another high upside play.
  5. So you're telling me there's a chance?
  6. To post a tweet, just do the following: [tweet] insert tweet # here [/ tweet]
  7. Moncada is touted by a lot of prospect guys as a generational talent, and Giolito has seen his stock drop as metafour suggested, while Kopech and his elite fastball has only gone up. I honestly think the Red Sox's top 2 here are much more valuable and have higher upside than the Nats' top 2.
  8. Giolito is overrated and Moncada is (much more?) more valuable than Robles, I can totally understand why the White Sox would go for this deal rather than the Nats' proposal which did not include Turner, although we also don't know how much more talent they did add.
  9. Neither do I, Moncada is seen by most evaluators as an elite talent, and IIRC Kopech has fantastic stuff (he's the one with the 100 mph fastball right?) Add in a couple of sleeper/lottery pick prospects and it's a pretty strong return.
  10. And Sale is also a pitcher with wonky mechanics, so that's an even bigger advantage for Donaldson.
  11. The Warriors are having so much fun out there. It's a joke to them, they just make it seem so easy, they're toying with the opposition.
  12. Man, Durant and the Warriors are so f***ing good. He was the ultimate addition to their team. KD currently averaging a career high in blocks, rebounds, steals, eFG% (by a lot), while still putting up 27+ PPG with nearly 5 assists per game.
  13. You're replying to two trolls, what did you expect?
  14. That's a killer. Nice to see Demar is able to make those shots though lol.
  15. Holy f*** what a shot lmao. He was probably out of bounds though.
  16. There's been like 4 or 5 airballs from the Cavs that the Raptors haven't picked up. Our rebounding needs a lot of help, hopefully Sullinger can help with that once he's back, but we'll need more than just one guy. We're constantly losing rebounding and getting destroyed on the offensive glass.
  17. The Cavs are making everything. Starting to pull away now, will need to start making shots and playing really tight D or it could get out of hand.
  18. Carroll and Patterson picked a bad game to start missing wide open shots again. Hopefully they can bounce back.
  19. Not to imply that he's bad, but it feels like the Phils would be selling high on him and the price wouldn't be cheap. Furthermore, why are they trying to move a player that is 25, still under team control for a few more years and has been worth roughly 4 wins for each of the past two seasons?
  20. It'll be just like Spring Training. They'll make one start each, maybe two, where they'll just take it easy and that way they will be ready for the regular season. Osuna could conceivably pitch more as a reliever but I would hope that the Mexico manager has strict directions as to the usage of young starts like Osuna.
  21. Goins is pretty much the definition of replacement level, I don't think we should expect to get anything back for him, definitely not someone who has any kind of upside at not being terrible.
  22. My procrastination knows no bounds.
  23. Assuming that fangraphs' stats for homeruns and RBI since 1920 are accurate, then for hitters with at least 300 PA since 1920: -For players with 30 or more homeruns, Curtis Granderson's 2016 of 30 homers and 59 RBI is indeed the lowest (RBI - HR = 29) -For players with 20 or more homeruns, the lowest RBI-HR total belongs to Chris Hoiles of the 1992 Baltimore Orioles, who had 20 dingers and only 40 RBI (RBI - HR = 20) -For players with 10 or more homeruns, the honour belongs to Scott Hairston of the 2008 Padres, who hit 17 homeruns to go along with 31 RBI (RBI-HR = 14) -For 5 homeruns or more, Karl Rhodes of the 1994 Cubs has the record, hitting 8 homeruns and driving in 19 (RBI-HR = 11) -For at least 40 homeruns, Barry Bonds' 2003 campaign has that record, he hit 45 homeruns and drove in 90 (RBI-HR = 45) -Lastly, for at least 50 homeruns, this one came during Willie Mays' only 50+ homer season, where he hit a modest 52 cuadrangulares and helped his teammates score 112 runs (RBI-HR = 60) Trust me, I checked.
  24. That's a really bad deal for you. Noticeably less valuable starters were asked for and rejected by a number of teams, and you added a tier 1 (lower end of the tier if anything) closer to go along with it. Piscotty has some value himself, but yikes, seems like Frenchsoup made out like a bandit here.
  25. Jarrod Dyson is basically a poor man's Billy Hamilton. What he lacks in speed and slightly better outfield defense, he makes up for it by being a better hitter than Hamilton.
