  1. That could have been so much worse
  2. Seconded. This is unforgivable, Diamond
  3. http://i.imgur.com/UtA9vKb.jpg Awesome. I picture sontensei as that little monkey man that the sumo wrestler squeezed to death.
  4. Easy on the vodka Sierra mist combo, Miggy
  5. 433 minor league homers. Good lord.
  6. Looked like just a funnybone stinger. Hit his hand
  7. Was screaming at the TV: "move your fingers Kris! Please!"
  8. Call me a meatball if you will, but the whole "don't block the plate" rule or whatever is just stupid and its pointless anyways if they never enforce it.
  9. Good Heavens, McCutchen is so damn good
  10. Doing some more screwing around on BR concerning Belanger, who I'm fascinated by now. Going by descending WAR among SS, you have to get to a guy named George McBride to find a player with a lower OPS+. McBride had an OPS+ of 65 and a WAR of 21.0. Belanger is such an outlier that it's damn near laughable. Descending OPS+: http://i.imgur.com/hK6sDXA.jpg He and Ozzie Smith are basically identical at the very top of Total Zone Runs at SS and no one else is particularly close. http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/tz_runs_total_ss_career.shtml
  11. Indeed. KB in the reflection taking the pic
  12. So are Lester and/or Lirano going to come back out?
  13. You get that hit, Rammy. No hard feelings.
  14. I struggle to blame anyone for that inning. I'll access blame to the ump
  15. Man, Bryant has go to learn to hit a change up
  16. Baez definitely. I think Schwarber will compete for a batting title one day. I also think Billy Beane had it right when he told Theo after the Russell trade: "Congratulations, you just got Barry Larkin."
  17. Not just any Bee Jays, but Liberal Bee Jays with a terribly tragic storyline Yep. Unfortunately that's how I came across the name. :( :(
  18. He is even below Rabbit Maranville in JAWS. That's freaking hard to do. http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/jaws_SS.shtml To be fair, 41.0 WAR is not a terrible total for a no-hitting SS. Quite impressive actually. Compare that to a contemporary SS like Don Kessinger, who actually played in more games, went to the All-Star game 5 more times than Belanger, and yet has an 8.9 total WAR. Nevertheless, he shouldn't get HOF votes IMO.
