I figured out how it's going to go. Kershaw is going to throw a no-hitter and the Cardinals will still win 1-0.
-
I have a feeling the former is nearly 100% of the reason he was put on the roster of a team that was going to lose a lot and had a bunch of young guys. It really is a shame he's not better at baseball, because he's the perfect guy to have around on a playoff team to keep them from getting too tight like the '07 and '08 teams.
-
Yes, he certainly is blanketed by the guy making an illegal play to keep him away from the ball.
-
Ryu v. Lackey not bad Not good either. Ryu was questionable to even pitch because he's been hurt.
-
I'm going to be in KC tomorrow night and was kind of hoping there would be a game. Oh well. Are they tickets specifically to game 4 or the 2nd home playoff game?

There's nothing spectacular there, but their top 5 were all solid. 3.65 is the highest ERA of any of them and when you only need them to go 6 innings with the back end of the pen they've got, you can win a lot of games.

Kansas City Royals: Team of Destiny?
-
Does Escobar always lead off for KC?
-
So no call on the helmet to helmet?
-
That wasn't Jay's fault. That was right where it was supposed to be but there was no call on Holmes getting bumped 10 yards down the field that redirected his route.
-
And what a huge stolen base by Hanley.
-
He's actually been really good since he came back up and got regular playing time. He supplanted Tavares in the lineup. And what a shocker to see Molina get all red assed over nothing.
-
I'd look at rosters of teams who are 1-3 or 0-4 if they exist and try to deal with them since their season is likely not going anywhere fast anyway. Waiting until week 6 or 7 to take that approach might work better though.

The Royals winning would be the next best thing to the Cubs winning just for the angst it would cause here. at first i thought you were talking about nsbb, and i was like huh? and then i realized you meant st. louis Yeah, I think the first quote of this thought I meant NSBB too. I want to see the groaning and teeth gnashing if KC wins it. They bitch about the KC inferiority complex toward St. Louis like they don't have the same thing going for Chicago. And then there was this FB post this morning: And they continue to wonder why they have the rep they do.

Please don't make me want to kill you as much as I want to kill the Cardinals fans I'm around every day by doing this.

Of course my opponent picked up the Packers defense for this week.
-
I think it has far less to do with available money than it does perceived closeness to being competitive/winning.
-
A guy in my league just traded Martellus Bennett for Trent Richardson, so who knows. I thought that was an awful deal for the guy getting Richardson, but he was desperate.
-
Showalter is on the verge of doing something really smart if Tillman can't get this guy. Love it.
-
Bengals D @ NE or Lions D home against Buffalo

You of all people are going to try to say that having extra money(and not a trifling amount either) to spend is meaningless? You're going to approach an offseason with X to spend differently than when you have X -15 million to spend. Plus we're talking about a multi-year deal here. Without Soriano, maybe they would've been able to more easily stretch for a guy like Sanchez or [insert your 'IFA that got away' here] knowing that for half the deal they'd have ~20% more payroll available to them. Maybe Scott Baker becomes Liriano instead, I dunno. I do know that when you're working with financial limitations, having a huge chunk of your payroll in one post-prime player who later was traded and became dead money is going to make a material difference in your planning. My opinion is that thus far their strategy is that they have a number they feel a guy is worth and they won't go much beyond that. Maybe this changes now that they're interested in being good, but in previous seasons I don't buy it. This is reasonable and believable, and also probably right.

This is Mojo's doesn't tip on a haircut. It's on the sandwich "tree," or however you want to put it, but it's different enough in terms of expectations and construction to be it's own thing, just like a hot dog. So the hot dog is on the sandwich tree. Is that like the ticket oak? And where can I get one? That sounds really convenient and pretty awesome.
