Anyone else notice Olerud and Delgado are both trending on the Fangraph's website (when you just click on the search square and a list of trending names comes up)? I can only assume that is directly related to this thread and all you nerds who, like me, went to compare Olerud and Delgado...
-
Surprisingly because you think I'm dumn?
-
Was the Seinfield episode based on Ricky? Or was Ricky just a huge fan?
-
Holy man...it was a joke. I was joking.
-
Same here man
-
Funny thing is, the 2013 and 2014 version of Martin is probably exactly what we should expect from Pillar moving forward. In 2015 Martin fetches a middle reliever (who's basically Delabar) and people getting paid to follow baseball are suggesting TiaWalker for Pillar... Craziness.
-
Is the audio or written comments from Wilner still available? What an interesting read it would be...
-
Even if it is - Delgado is on the ring of excellence while Olerud was platooned, underappreciated and traded to the Mets for Robert f***ing Person....oh and the Jays paid $5M of Olerud's $6.5M contract. The best thing to come from it was trading Person to the Philly's for Paul Spoljaric... Olerud goes on to put up 18.3 WAR in 3 seasons for the Mets. It's pretty shocking when you look back at it...
-
I don't think Cito liked how Olerud wore a helmet in the field. Check that - I don't think anyone did. Looked funny. It's kind of ironic how Olerud had a better career than Delgado
-
Didn't the whole twitter exchange start because Wilner said he didn't like Revere hitting leadoff?
-
In which era was it a bad idea to get your best hitters the most at bats again???
-
If you follow Pillar you'll notice he has massive hot and cold streaks. He was hot at the end of the season and into the playoffs...
-
We're going to have to - as they are likely both gone in 2017.
-
Exactly. Take the money up front, invest it and watch it grow. Compounding returns are awesome.
-
Because math. $26M > $16M
-
This discussion on whether Pompey can play CF are fascinating. I never realised there was so much doubt about it.
-
And Chapman could blow out his arm...
-
screw you guys.
-
I don't disagree one bit...guess that's why the Jays get paid the big bucks. Personally, much like AA - I prefer targeting players with multiple years of control.
-
It all depends if you think the adjustments he made last year were sustainable. If they are - JBJ has massive value.
-
Except Pompey could give us 3 wins as a fulltime player on a $500,000 contract, which is like $23.5M surplus value + 5 more years of control. I agree he's likely who the Reds would want, but given the uncertainty of Jose beyond this year and his god awful defense & the possibility Pillar has a massive regression....I think you want to keep Pompey around.

2015 Minor League Free Agent List
Brownie19 replied to Corporal Valdal's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I see Justin Jackson the list as well....oh those days. -
I'm not advocating the signing of Colby Lewis at all, but he did post a 2.6 WAR last year and Steamers puts him at 1.1 WAR in 2016. Estrada is coming off a 1.8 WAR season and Steamers puts him at 0.8 WAR in 2016.....yet people want Estrada back, possibly on a multi year deal, while others suggest Lewis should only be offered a minor league deal. That seems odd to me.

more anger - you're quickly becoming my favourite poster.

I rode that horse last offseason and everyone acted like I was on a donkey.
