GRB/NSBB ESPN Fantasy Auction League
TruffleShuffle replied to wolf stansson's topic in Fantasy Sports
who's the other GRB person in the league? four of the five have GRB at the beginning of the name but the fifth one does not. seems pretty even so far, GRB people are in 2nd, 6th, 7th and 10th. -
Except both of those would suck, no? yeah and you'd probably end up pissing your pants at some point too
-
that's awesome, but marmol really needs to stop walking so many guys. last year's walk rate was manageable; this year's is not.
-
uh oh nuevo pujols is up
-
just keep changing pitchers until you find someone who actually can throw strikes with some degree of regularity.
-
worse than a walk per inning for our best relief pitcher.

bonifacio is italian for good face.

if denise richards' rack is real then props to her parents for those genes.

Trade options
TruffleShuffle replied to Little Slide Rooter's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Well he did it. The money is relatively close to even. no it's not. derosa is making $3.3M more than miles this season. -
6.24 walks per 9 innings? good Lord that's bad.
-
i think it's even more comical that a team with a $120M payroll is regularly using one of their starting pitchers to pinch hit.
-
miles is friggin terrible.

In partial defense of our pitchers.... walks seem to be up this year all over MLB. I wonder if they've put some pressure on the umpires to call the strike zone as it's described in the rules ???? If that were the case, shouldn't walks be down? The called zone is tighter than the rule book zone. But if they cut out the outside without calling the high strike (which they're certainly not calling) then the zone shrinks correct. but the cubs are either worst or second worst in MLB in walks per 9 IP, so even if walks are up league-wide, the cubs are still issuing too many walks relative to the rest of the league.

I wonder if they've put some pressure on the umpires to call the strike zone as it's described in the rules ???? if they are then they should start calling the letter-high ball over the plate, and as far as i can tell, nothing above the belt is ever a strike.

96 walks in 191 innings pitched - that's 4.5 per 9 IP. friggin awful. the orioles were worst in baseball last year, 4.34 BB/9 IP. someone needs to fix this ASAP.
-
i see we're trying to take the league lead for walks allowed.
-
