  1. baez went 0-4 with 2 strikeouts yesterday, and in a doubleheader today he's 1-8 with a double, walk and 5 strikeouts. :x
  2. we promised him that he could drunk drive around the players' parking lot until he mows down all of our most promising young players.
  3. baez 1-4 with a walk and no strikeouts, so now his strikeout rate is down to a miniscule 32%.
  4. i mean, he's right, so... even if kyle were right about everything, which he's not, his volume of posts is tiresome. he's basically a less dumb but more arrogant version of slide castro slide.
  5. one can't really say that, no...not if it's a meaningful sample size. i don't care what a player is OPSing or what rate they're walking at if they're striking out 40% of the time in the PR winter league. in 5 games, when half of them came in his first competitive baseball game in like 4 months.
  6. thank God kyle stopped by to share some more of his baseball thoughts with us.
  7. weren't half of those in his first game? i mean, one could easily turn that around and say that a 40% k-rate is pretty meaningless when you're hitting an extra base hit every game and walking 10% of the time.
  8. The most pessimistic side of me really hopes this isn't a case of discovering a shiny new toy and going overboard. like you and the internet :lol:
  9. i have no clue. i only see stuff when people tweet it/post it. someone said he has a 1.200 OPS though http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?gid=2014_12_19_cagwin_sanwin_1&t=g_box&sid=l133 his line in PR is: .444/.476/.889/1.365 with 2 walks and 8 strikeouts in 5 games. for what it's worth, the PR winter league seems offensively-challenged. his club's OPS is .616.
  10. i remember last year when the dodgers signed brian wilson to a 2 year, $19.5m contract, i had to double check and make sure that it wasn't a joke. well, he was released today, meaning that the dodgers got one year of a 4.66 ERA for nearly $20m.
  11. Jesus FIFA is so [expletive] pathetic.
  12. if that's true, that's a pretty sweet deal for nix. he gets the amount of money he was originally supposed to get from the astros, then can go back into the draft (presumably) and get another big signing bonus.
  13. how has this not been posted yet? http://www.omaha.com/huskers/bo-pelini-transcript-i-d-rather-work-at-mcdonald-s/article_4f3583d6-8637-11e4-b708-3fa46a3a8147.html?mode=jqm now he's going to work for jim tressel. i think we can safely say that youngstown state will be class personified, on and off the field.
  14. so we gave up marco hernandez and got ???? from oakland?
  15. lol, isn't motte the one that dated OMC's ex?
  16. http://media0.giphy.com/media/4wycNsucv3ofC/200.gif =D> =D> =D>
  17. joe maddon should request a big raise if he's worth 16 wins by himself.
  18. yeah i felt a lot better about the dodgers when they were being run by an abject moron.
  19. ben revere would be awesome if he could draw walks, or hit for power, or play plus defense.
  20. heaney for one year of howie kendrick seems like an overpay.
