    You know... I'm starting to think we should've just re-signed Morrow for cheap.
  2. Governator
    More or less from the chase to the bag which happens quite often with these speedy guys (Bunts, slap singles, choppers to first, etc.).

    You can practice all you want to perfect it but when a heavy set first baseman crushes your hand, there's nothing to prepare for that.

    I'm not depressed of having Navarro, but he's not going to get in that many games. I can't come up with any scenario in which Navarro would be playing first base. Yes he might get 60 games in from spot catching and some DH roles against righties, but that's about it and if he starts DHing we're forced to keep Thole on the roster because Navarro wouldn't be able to backup Martin in any game. Well I mean he could if you don't mind the pitcher taking over DH spot the rest of the game.

    That's like saying they should put Drabek in the rotation because he'll get his pitches in.

    I only watched about 140+ of their games last year... wtf are you talking about? I also saw each of his games as a Jay. It's a legit question.

    Can someone explain how Hendriks has not had better success in the majors thus far? I mean his minor league career has had such legit numbers it's hard to think he couldn't translate that in to at least a 5th usable starter at this level. His BB/9 alone is beyond excellent, his K/9 is about average. He's only had 34 scattered starts in the majors over 4 seasons. Do you think a full season he could iron things out? Maybe with a noncontender (Didn't work out with the Twins mind you a few years back).

    We need an updated excel doc to keep up with the injury reports, good grief.

    Sportsnet they'd rather air Red Wings vs Penguins probably because of that NHL National contract they have
  11. Governator
    But that national contract ya know, they just have to air Red Wings and Penguins.
  12. Governator
    lol ffs

    I seriously thought you were talking about some guy named Pillas Grade. So how did it happen, there are no details in this except a mention of a sneeze.

    You're worrying about an injury that hasn't happened and ACL tears are very common in all sports (of course not very common in pitchers) but success rate of coming back is probably better than TJ. Do you think if Rivera needed TJ surgery when he was 42 years old he would have come back? The ACL tear didn't stop him from putting up a 2.11ERA & an 86% save rate at 43 years old. Stroman is half that age and of the most athletic pitchers in the game.

    In other news, Estrada is starting the other game. Estrada (0-1, 15.43)
  16. Governator
    Neither game is on sportsnet, not sure if there are streams.

    Is this the Pompey vs Pompey game?
  18. Governator
    Over the last 10 years, an average of 19.6 MLB players have gone down to TJ (ESPN has a list I averaged it). If we base numbers on approx. 345 MLB pitchers (11.5/team x 30), we get a 5.6% of pitchers falling to TJ @ the MLB level. Though if you have a 10 year career it doesn't mean you have a 56% chance of needing TJ surgery at some point afterall it's a 5% chance year after year but I'm sure how one looks after themselves, including their pitch counts, etc must highly relate to that outcome on a per pitcher basis.
  19. Governator
    How did Drabek look?
  20. Governator
  21. Governator
    That sucks...
  22. Governator
    MLB's line shows 3 hits? I'm sitting at mcdonalds doing work, haven't followed game. Did he give up 2 hits after that?
  23. Governator
    From April 8th to May 7th they have 1 day off, why wouldn't they need a 5th starter?
  24. Governator
    If Smoak and Barton simply don't cut it would this not work better? I know it's not ideal obv, but if they simply are liabilities maybe a patchwork move if Navarro stays with the team. Righties: EE @ 1B Navarro DH Lefties: Valencia 1B EE DH
  25. Governator
    Valencia rakes the lefties, and not afraid to hit on a 3-0 count.
