  1. Holy f*** I jinxed it boys. My bad.
  2. Are you Ned's nephew or something? Ned Yost is a f***ing useless twit - that is widely known and accepted. Alcides Escobar is one of the worst hitters in baseball and Ned hit him leadoff for years while he had multiple superior options. I've never actually seen anyone suggest he's a good manager. Jesus. I'm still trying to figure out if you're just trolling with most of your posts.
  3. Maile is becoming one of those players you can't help but root for. He may be the new Johnny Mac.
  4. Unless the DH spot is open (which means JD's fully healthy and Morales is not going to play regularly), then you'll have to accept that some combination of Grichuk, Teoscar, Grandy and Pearce are all going to split time at 2 positions (unless you're going to start giving Pillar more time off). I don't think that's going to work....nor are we going to carry 5 outfielders if Morales/JD are back. Chances are - there will be another injury that opens up at bats for Teoscar on a regular basis. That's how baseball works.
  5. f*** I hope that's a new direction they're going in.
  6. Gift and Travis are almost the exact same player right now. Look at their lines. It's awful.
  7. You're probably going to be disappointed a lot this year.
  8. I'd love it if you started a thread and posted all the brilliant things you hear Barker say that's suggests he knows anything about baseball.
  9. Those guys should stay the f*** out of the broadcast booth.
  10. Can we get a quote? Barker typically doesn't make points - let alone good ones. That said Stro hasn't looked sharp at all. I do wonder if his shoulder is bothering him. What did Barker suggest the organization has done to suggest they are worried?
  11. No you're not. Gift is on the team because Tulo is hurt. If he wasn't hurt, Gift would be in AAA as depth. If either Barney or Goins were on the team and Tulo was healthy - they'd be released (unless they accept assignment to AAA) and we wouldn't have any depth.
  12. Joe Biagini is being called up to start Game 2 of the doubleheader tomorrow.
  13. The Nats are trying to make it a game in NY.
  14. Holy f***. Blaine Boyer took the wheel of a bus load of Royals today. Ice off first bus broke windshield on second bus. Ice struck the bus driver and Boyer had to jump in and stop the bus.
  15. #1 - those guys fixing the roofs are crazy. #2 - even as a massive baseball and Blue Jays fans - I'm not sure I'd enjoy sitting through 2 full games. To each their own though!
  16. just when I had my Van Damme dancing .gif all lined up....I think we all kind of knew this was coming, but it still blows goats. That said - another free day of rehab for JD!
  17. Goins is 4th on the team in wRC+ while striking out 43.8% of the time!
  18. If true - why the f*** would Jose choose go announce it with Jeff Blair? Was Barker booked?
  19. OK. Look at Seattle then.
  20. Bartolo loses the perfect game in the 8th. Can you imagine if he pulled that off v. the World Series champs at age 67?
  21. If you're not spending big - you don't have to sell a lot of tickets.
  22. What happened with the Royals is somewhat common. They get a solid young core - they all peak at the right time - they win - then they get expensive and in the Royals case - they can't afford to keep them and the talent leaves.
  23. Blindly suggesting that others should follow suit is pretty short sighted. The Orioles seem to be following suit...they refuse to rebuild. You follow them and let me know how that works over the next 5-10 years... Teams are all using advanced projection systems and now have a much better understanding of where they are on the "win curve". Teams with a 5-10% chance of making the playoffs are no longer going to go sign that aging, declining vet to a long term deal - which hampers their future - for such a low probability of success. They've also learned that adding that vet only increases their chances by a percentage point or two.
  24. What the f*** is that? No player can block home plate (or any base) can they? If they could. Every fielder should be blocking the bag when the runner comes in head first.
