  1. if they run out of position players, sveum should really be grilled for wasting a position player to lay down a sac bunt in the late innings of a tie ballgame.
  2. maples struggled with his control again. 4 walks and a hit batter in 5 innings.
  3. did they just burn a position player to lay down a sac bunt?
  4. Yeah, not the best argument to make for Puig not being on roids. FTR, I don't have any reason tho think Puig is using PEDs, but 90% of the NFL probably is. Well, 75% at least. i guess it was more a complaint about the cognitive dissonance by people who gets suspicious of every baseball player who looks strong and plays well, but then cheer wildly when their favorite football team is packed with players who run like the wind yet can bench press a house.
  5. if yasiel puig's physique makes him a PED suspect then like 90% of nfl players are on roids. (which may be true)
  6. well, that and the two championships from the hockey team.
  7. actually a lot of those teams are in reasonably big markets - mets, phillies, angels, giants, astros.
  8. olt 4-4 with a double and home run. daury torres is pitching well for the azl cubs. he has 47 strikeouts against 5 walks in 47 innings for the year. in 162 professional innings he has walked 14 batters.
  9. edwin jackson xFIP going into this game: 2010: 3.71 2011: 3.73 2012: 3.79 2013: 3.79 hopefully he's just getting his bad luck out of his system in a lost year and will be back to solid mid-rotation starter next season.
  10. i like how you lead off the sentence by basically acknowledging that the rest of the post is going to be stupid.
  11. justin marra has 3 home runs in 2 games. i remember being intrigued by his upside, but he's really done jack [expletive] since being drafted. kevin encarnacion is 4-4 with a double and home run. (ping: WSR) paul blackburn wasn't good, but didn't give up any runs (6 bb and 2 k in 5 innings)
  12. edwards was pulled after 4 innings. probably trying to keep his innings down since he only threw 67 last year and daytona is likely to make the playoffs.
  13. not including tonight, .292/.365/.640/1.005.
  14. cj edwards: 4 ip, 4 h, 0 r, 1 bb, 8 k.
  15. what's the minor league lead in home runs? george springer (36)?
  16. update: turns out you missed maybe the best game of the year. boise came back from an early 9-1 deficit and won 16-11.
  17. well, at least they don't have to travel very far to get rained out again.
  18. i don't know who jose paulino is (dsl cubs), but he has 71 k against 12 bb in 58 innings pitched, and is 18 years old. meanwhile, paniagua: :x
  19. this is probably the slowest: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/u/images/ZitoQuentin.gif also, vicente padilla throws an eephus pitch: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/u/images/PadillaMorales(1).gif
  20. yes clearly i said that is what i hope happens.
  21. i'm sure you could come up with a realistic 5-team trade scenario.
