  1. oh, the money i could make on Cesar Cedeno alone
  2. starting to think ol' money fingers was a bad pick
  3. people making bar bets on the average WAR over a baseball player's peak is the kind of world i want to live in
  4. in a fantasy world where he's capable of back to back Super Bowl berths, he probably escapes too much criticism (see: Carroll / Bevell backlash) but in this reality his decision-making is always in question because he does things like name his kid Jaxon and refuses immunization
  5. Seahawks fans: https://t.co/iZAgSzAYVS
  6. trying to remember who led the nfl in rushing td this season...
  7. the common theme to these commercials is schmaltz
  8. how does Branden Dawson not develop in any way over 4 years? with a semi-respectable jumper he's like a top-10 pick, right? feeling like recruiting services should just start adding a star to whoever Beilein offers edit: wtf is this
  9. Derrick Walton in crutches a starting backcourt of Spike Albrecht and Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman isn't quite what i had envisioned for our game in the land of burning coaches
  10. it's only fun if we can include Baez and i can bury him in Daniel Lockhart territory
  11. Soler was 10th Name WAR600 Manuel Joseph 10.1 Kyle Schwarber 9.5 Davinson Pimentel 9.2 Kris Bryant 9.0 Sandy Madera 8.6 Carlos Vidal 8.5 J.T. Wise 8.4 Bryan Cuevas 8.4 Jorge Soler 8.3
  12. for what little it's worth, Billy McKinney (19) was the youngest player to accrue 200 PA in the FSL and he posted .301/.390/.432 line; better than every prospect-age (21-22) player but Brandon Nimmo, Josh Bell, Dalton Pompey & Aaron Judge http://www.fangraphs.com/minorleaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=10&qual=200&type=1&season=2014&team=0&players=0 12% BB, 20% K for a teenager in the FSL is like a Christian Yelich level for advanced approach
  13. going off UZR, above-average LFs last year were: Alex Gordon Christian Yelich Yoenis Cespedes Dustin Ackley Alejandro de Aza Khris Davis Brett Gardner Starling Marte i don't trust Schwarber to have that type of athleticism
  14. best-case: Brian Giles likely: Jason Kubel worst: Chad Tracy
  15. just a general comment, but going through his list, you get the impression he doesn't value MLB proximity one iota
  16. the problem with that hope, is he's just remarkably hittable http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=pit&lg=all&qual=600&type=8&season=2014&month=0&season1=2010&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=12,d
  17. so you're saying we should, hitch our wagon, to Viciedo :D
  18. Schwarber #90 is that even a meme, or do you just like to feel a false sense of superiority at all times
  19. it's hard to imagine Greg Mattison, once called the best recruiter in the country by Urban Meyer, building the reputation he's built by offending HS kids; sounds like an unfortunate misunderstanding probably from probably the most well-sourced UM guy: "Long story short, crazy helicopter dad."
  20. down 3 starters tonight and Beilein still performed some weird voodoo to win handily against a competent conference opponent
  21. this is a fun time-waster The missing pieces: How many players away from the Super Bowl was each team? http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/12179331/how-many-players-away-super-bowl-team
