    Praising Hosmer so much but a decent throw from Duda and he's out..
  2. burlingtonbandit
    what a terrible throw. They had it
  3. burlingtonbandit
    d'Arnaud has really struggled throwing out runners.
  4. burlingtonbandit
    He knows MLB is a business especially since it happened to him. He goes from francishie player in Oakland to traded the next day. Wonder if Shapiro values character and team chemistry.

    Stroman is like yeah we don't need extra motivation... f***in idiot Barry lol
  6. burlingtonbandit
    Could be something we don't know about. I don't think you should bash AA when you don't know the circumstances around the contract that was offered.

    Cringeworthy interview of Stroman by Barry Davis at the WS!! http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/stroman-we-are-motivated-and-hungry-for-next-year/

    Noticed in the Toronto Sun it was reported that the reason no players have spoke publicly about AA's departure is because Rogers told them not to. This is the first time I heard about this. Rogers was probably afraid of more PR backlash if players tweeted out their support of AA.

    Nothing is as bad as the Sportsnet.ca Comments. Once read them and immediately had to drink 2 beers because of how awful they were.

    Can't stand it when Casey leaves in his best players with 3 min left in a 20 point game.
  11. burlingtonbandit
    guy also fouls at a historic rate.
  12. burlingtonbandit
    Biyombo looks worse than Chuck Hayes on offence.
  13. burlingtonbandit
    Ball movement actually looks pretty good. Of course Derozan isn't on the floor..
  14. burlingtonbandit
    And sign a bunch of Free Agents to replace their production as well as find 2 SP all for $140? That would be very difficult...
  15. burlingtonbandit
    Won't be interesting at all because the team would suck.
  16. burlingtonbandit
    Not with a $140 Million they can't.
  17. burlingtonbandit
    Pompey is as well.

    I'd like to see Stroman elevate the 4 seam just to give batters a different look. Also think he would get more Ks as well, although he might be a few more HRs too. I don't blame him and Martin using the 2 seam as much as they do since its such a good pitch but a few extra 4 seamers might not be so bad.
  19. burlingtonbandit
    Oh for sure you would take a strikeout vs any other out. Maybe popout since you could do it on less pitches but not going to nitpick.
  20. burlingtonbandit
    Isn't a 1 pitch groundout the most efficient way to record an out?
  21. burlingtonbandit
    Okay there Buck. "Edwin is the best baserunner on the team"-Buck Martinez
  22. burlingtonbandit
    ugh what? He seems like a really genuine person, which can't be said for a lot of athletes. Not many people in the position he is would be hanging out with homeless people and helping them out the way he has. I will say he has one of the best instagram accounts.
  23. burlingtonbandit
    Have to remember transitioning to MLB is very difficult too lol. I think Norris will get a few more Ks his Swstr% indicates he should of struck out more batters. His stuff has been pretty inconsistent it seems too. Really rooting for the guy though even if he isn't with the Jays. One of the best people in the game.
  24. burlingtonbandit
    Well stroman lost about 1 MPH this season and seems to have almost abandoned his 4 Seamer for the 2 seamer. I think that could partly explain the small drop in strikeouts. If he continues to get the grounball rate above 60% he doesn't necessarily need the strikeouts like you said. Low pitch count groundouts will help him go deeper into games so his value is probably around the same either way.
  25. burlingtonbandit
    I think the issue is he is a FA next year and it would cost him money on the open market if he's a DH rather than an everyday player. I would think after he signed an extension or gets a contract he would be much more open to DHing.
