does Rizzo have cerebral palsy
-
-
91 and i missed a lot of really blindingly obvious ones i think a few more minutes and i'd have settled on several of these also, i really expected big things from (but forgot here)
-
Russell i think i rate Bryant, Russell, Buxton, Soler the top four in baseball, in that order
-
if these things all happen, we win like 107 games
-
career year for Fowler
-
Pat Burrell, too it's hard to identify a perfect comp, but Bay used the whole field while Burrell was mostly dead-pull so i went with him; Bryant's OF defense is a bit of an unknown anyway
-
numbers relative to league; Troy had a 124 OPS+ ages 22-31, with years of 138 and 150 thrown in there 150 OPS+ is 2014 Edwin Encarnacion offense- as a decent 3B, that's an MVP winner 138 OPS+ is 2014 Nelson Cruz... also, he averaged 3.9 bWAR (133 G) during that time and 4.9 bWAR per 650 PA

i voted for him in this poll
-
best / likely / worst -case Bryant B: Troy Glaus/Jesse Barfield L: Jason Bay W: Corey Hart Russell B: Barry Larkin L: JJ Hardy W: Alex (S) Gonzalez Jorge Soler B: Andre Dawson L: Jermaine Dye W: Austin Kearns
-
i'm confident we will, oddly enough, in large part because of the utility he'll have for Maddon in non-pitching roles -
they're essentially tied, but i'll go Bryant over Russell on the slim chance he becomes 3B Giancarlo

amazing finish to Bruins-Flames: OT 4:58: Goal scored by T.J. Brodie(Backhand 30 ft) assisted by Mark Giordano and Sean Monahan >BOS 3, CGY 4 @NHLBruins #NHLBruins fall to Flames 4-3 as OT winds down. Shot from T.J. Brodie pops off Rask's glove, on top of the net, off his back & into the net. http://i.imgur.com/ZcM2rZW.gif

my belief for likelihood of Baez career outcomes: Alfonso Soriano (5%) Ian Desmond (10%) Danny Espinosa (50%) Brandon Wood (35%)
-
i've read our strength of schedule should help quite a bit maybe it won't, but i'm not really stressing out over it
-
but congrats at barely overcoming an offense centered around a short unathletic point guard and short unathletic center a statement win if there ever were one
-
i'm pretty emotionally exhausted after watching a game with possible outcomes ranging from "likely NIT" to "likely NIT"
-
that's what the Javy Baez is for!
-
whomever trades for Hamels, it's not going to take 4-5 legitimate prospects to acquire his services, come on
-
injuries to Walton and Levert forced him into action but bless his heart, he's terrible
-
i'd completely hate it
-
When it comes to hating Baez you're like an atheist Crossfitter. and to think, if we had no chance to compete soon, i'd probably love him and all the ridiculousness he provides (see: Lake, Junior) http://i.imgur.com/VK3aHns.jpg like wtf is that
