  1. Just trying to win troll of the year eh man? Weak sauce.
  2. Ok - I'm over Colabello. Moving on. Why is Hutch starting??????
  3. I hope this drug bust doesn't explain why Colabello was so beloved in the clubhouse...
  4. This is so awesome. It wasn't the BABIP gods after all.....it was the drugs. Shocker. God doesn't exist guys.
  5. ^this...why the F don't you split up days off for your starters? da F man.
  6. Man they had some bad luck. Bourn was coming off a 6.2 WAR season and Swisher off a 4 WAR season (something like that - I didn't look him up) - and both immediately fell off the cliff after signing.
  7. Pillar 8th splits up the lefties (assuming Smoak is a zero batting RH)
  8. Chyna died today as well. Couple of legends.
  9. If Chris Coglan was at the plate last night instead of Jones - would you have been screaming to get Osuna into the game? What if it was Justin Smoak, Yunel Escobar, Stephen Vogt, Odubel Herrera, Yangervis Solarte or Gerardo Parra??? Jones is not an elite hitter - don't be fooled by name value. We've been over the other points numerous times - you're like trying to reason with a 2 year old. You've already made up your mind.
  10. What about Tony Sanchez? He didn't injure a pitcher in Spring Training...that must make him the next man up right? Former 3rd overall pick. Give him a leg kick and bam. Backup catcher.
  11. What is Carolina doing with Norman? So odd.
  12. I don't buy that argument. Zeke is s***.
  13. I highly doubt it matter who's catching. The same people will argue that Martin should be brought into any close game simply because he's better. They'll ignore he's a 33 years old who we can only expect to catch 105 games +/- this season if we want him fresh/effective for a playoff run.
  14. wRC+ 2012 - 127 2013 - 119 2014 - 116 2015 - 109 His WAR spiked in 2015 due to statistical improvements in his defense. Tony Batista hit 32 hrs with 110 rbis in 2004 and he was an effit turrrrible hitter. Unless I fell into my hot tube time machine last night it's not 2001 - we don't (or shouldn't) judge players primarily based on HRs & RBIs.
  15. Jones has been declining as a hitter for 4 straight years now. That's reality and probably doesn't show up in your video game. Cecil and Osuna aren't going to pitch in 100+ games - this isn't a video game. Joe was pitching fine, got a little unlucky and Thole can't catch. Get over it and stop blaming everyone in sight.
  16. Martin's pay cheque isn't going to magically going to turn him into Iron Man. It's utterly stupid to expect him to come into every close game once Dickey is removed from the game.
  17. There were 2 out. Pay attention. And Adam Jones is s*** at the plate overall (wRC+ of 109 last year) and is stone cold to start this year. I had full confident that Joe was going to get him out before Thole forgot how to catch.
  18. It's a 162 game season man. You can't have Cecil and Osuna pitch in every game and you certainly can't play Martin in every game. Dickey's starts are Martin's day off - deal with it. I know this might scare you, but Thole might have to start some games when Dickey isn't pitching too (gaspsss). Martin is old and this team is set up to go deep into the playoffs - you can't just have him sit out 34 Dickey starts.
  19. WTF - he's throwing 93-96 MPH in the commercial. Looks fine to me!
  20. This is what I was thinking....some seem to think our 32 year old catcher can play 162 games a year.
  21. I think there's a good chance this is true...
  22. You're blaming Biagini for a dribbler that gets past him and a past ball by Thole???
