  1. A little life...
  2. wear it Profar you dope
  3. How did Canha lay off that? Incredible.
  4. how's Olson miss that??? f*** me. Morton's slurve is disgusting.
  5. Dude - he's coming off a 4.2 and 4.7 WAR season (9th best in baseball over the past 2 years) It all depends what the years/$ difference between Wheeler and Cole/Stras is. If Cole is 8 years $240M and Wheeler is 5 years $115M - I'm taking the value of Wheeler all day. If Wheeler is 6 years $180M, then I'd rather take Cole.
  6. I think we're saying the same thing. Gibson at 3/36 fits into what I'm saying...someone who'll be with us in 2021/2022 helping us win in our competitive window (that yes - I hope doesn't close for a LONG time). I'm perhaps willing to take on a bit more risk with a guy like Wheeler (or Cole/Stras). Will it take 6 or 7 years to get Wheeler? It's a different strategy than bringing in Rich Hill on a 1 year deal - where the objective is to deal him at the deadline for prospects.
  7. Wouldn't we try and target pitchers who we could lock up for 3-5 years who are going to be core pieces when we enter our 'window'? Isn't the intent to perhaps add them a year early? I mean sure - sign Hill or some of these veterans or bounce back candidates for 1 or 2 years with the intent of improving the team and giving yourself potential trade chips....but I also hope we seriously explore adding pitchers who are going to still be here when we enter our competitive window in 2021-2023. For me that screams Zach Wheeler, but it could also include Cole/Stras (unlikely). I guess it could include Odorizzi or Gibson on a 3 year deal also. Personally - I'd like to see one pitcher from each category. Wheeler and Wood or Porcello
  8. Grant - if you didn't enjoy that game, you may not want to tune in this October. Probably best to walk re-runs of the 1985 ALCS if you prefer lots of contact and manufactured runs.
  9. Fans are stupid. In that situation, the benefit of the doubt has to go to the batter. I think they got that call right.
  10. Good call buddy.
  11. What a ball game. Playoff baseball is the tits.
  12. Strasburg's change is filthy. I'd assume he finishes the game for the Nats. Nats are winning this game.
  13. of course he will. Grass is also green.
  14. Buck - "Adames won't be running here with the lefty up. Wendle is a good hitter" Finishing up strong!
  15. Meadows up - runners on 2nd and 3rd, 1 out Buck - "in this situation you either walk him or try and get him out - you don't try and work around him" WTF?
  16. I mean you're probably right - it's bad for baseball.....but I love watching TB. I'd love to see TB and/or Oakland get in and upset the big boys.
  17. That is a bit sad. They have a pretty nice stadium and they had some crazy dedicated fans when they were good (Baerga, Manny, Thome, Lofton, Sandy days).
  18. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/felix-hernandez-and-the-rocky-road-to-cooperstown/ There's an article on it. TLDR, but I caught in it that his resistance to change and conditioning may have accelerated his decline.
  19. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/hail-to-the-king/ How can you not love baseball. What a season for Mariner fans. Starts with Ichiro's retirement, ends with Felix. There will soon be 2 fewer numbers to choose from for future Mariner players.
  20. awe s***! I missed that news. I thought he was a lock to swipe a few more bases and get to 40-40. That 40-40 list is a good trivia question. Everyone forgets Soriano.
  21. That's an excellent point. He is going to get older every year.
