  1. This adds up...
  2. That would mean one of the lefties would start vs. LHP...which would be incredibly stupid.
  3. I'm sure this is the case with some - but for me, it's about giving my kids opportunities. I acknowledge and accept there a very small chance my kids ever play beyond say a university level - but if they fall in love with a sport and show a desire to get better and push themselves - I won't hold them back (unless I ultimately can't from a financial perspective). There are simply too many positive life lessons you learn from rep sports. Kids internally pushing themselves, practicing to get better, hard work, teamwork and the ultimate reward to winning when you put in the hard work is something you carry for life. There are also lessons learned when cut from the team - or from losing the big game. This new thinking that simply participating is all you need to do is utter nonsense IMO.
  4. I never saw the appeal in spending all that money to go on the trip and see a game at another stadium (which is likely a once in a lifetime thing), only to spend it in a drunken haze. I have friends that do this yearly for football games. They go to a major city and spend all their time either in a hotel room drinking, drunk at a football game or at a bar. All the meals are fast food. Rinse and repeat. Give me the city tours, stadium tours, dinners at unique restaurants and a couple of beers at the ball game all day long.
  5. Yeah if not more.
  6. "save great seats in front" So your ticket is kind of general admission? Good to know though - because I f***ing despise people who's primary objective is to get loaded and party during a baseball game. Will avoid the bleachers like the plague.
  7. Perhaps - didn't affect his K/9 though...and we all know he isn't striking people out on that fastball..
  8. Can anyone explain why Cecil's GB% dropped so much last year? Low 50's for 3 years, then 42% last year. SSS? I noticed Loup's dropped from the mid 50's to about 40% last year too. Christ is he ever an enigma. He starts striking out way more and it seemingly makes him worse.
  9. why so? just curious.
  10. That in itself proves my point. Mike Trout is great every year....every year. Sometimes he has good players around him and they make the playoffs. Other years, the team around him sucks and the teams sucks. Mike Trout is the best player in baseball in both situations.
  11. What was wrong with him in 2013 and 2014? hang nail?
  12. Right....and Mike Trout isn't the best player in baseball because his team doesn't make the playoffs. Piss off
  13. EE - mainly because Cito's an idiot.
  14. Didn't you see Tabby's stats with the bases loaded? GOAT.
  15. You mean like the Yankee did with Jeter and Mo? 2 HOF players who were lifetime Yankees? http://www.nj.com/yankees/index.ssf/2016/06/yankees_attendance_sagging_at_home_on_road_in_2016.html Fail.
  16. How do you suspend the bat though???
  17. I think there's a decent chance he feels like he got ripped off on the previous deal he signed with the Jays and has the mindset that he has to get overpaid this time around to make up for it. That of course is incredible short sighted (given the Jays took a big risk on him after 1 good season).
  18. What about when he knowing spread AIDS? What a gong show that was.
  19. All sediments aside, there are short term FA's who will provide similar value, without costing us a draft pick. We add a draft pick when he signs elsewhere. Win-win.
  20. http://i.imgur.com/w9lrmK1.gif
  21. let me guess you were a big fan of Tony Batista too?
  22. Don't get me wrong - I agree.....but most said that about Loup after his 2015 season (Christ you could even suggest that about Loup after this season).
  23. The real test will be to see if his head shrinks 4 sizes like Barry's did after he retired.
