  1. not at all. it's just kind of funny to see people snickering at the gm of the best team in baseball while singing the praises of the cubs' front office that has presided over multiple years of garbage. i mean, you really don't see how that seems ridiculous? no, it'd be ridiculous if people were praising our ownership and [expletive] on theirs'...but that doesn't happen and probably never will, here if i go to the store with $1000, i'm probably going to accumulate better [expletive] than the guy who went in with change he dug out from under the couch cushions, but that doesn't necessarily make me some genius shopper
  2. you see, we all lose the right to have any opinions of other teams' actions because we like a team that is bad at the moment
  3. lol, 0.66 xFIP and 0.48 FIP
  4. and for the first time in a while, U-M football can hold its head up high I didn't see Sparty in that mess:) he/she/it was probably tired from partying with Clark
  5. and for the first time in a while, U-M football can hold its head up high
  6. former Astros RF Jason Lane is today's starting pitcher for the Padres; he hit 26 HR in 2005
  7. wow, i admire the effort, i really do, but no way am i reading all that Sickels has Soler top-25 and Bryant #1, so i like him best
  8. Not that I know anything about anything, but Soler always seems too low on these lists to me. he absolutely is, and it doesn't bother me in the slightest he can come up and be awesome (given health) and these guys can act surprised by it, for all i care
  9. Bonifacio is the best HS girls softball player
  10. #karma I have seen this before but don't get it, but then again I don't get the whole hash tag thing anyway. I get that you guys don't like Beliema, but he still gets another year at Ark before I start to really worry. http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2013/9/15/4732470/jen-bielema-twitter-karma-wisconsin
  11. Russell with the triple-plus hands
  12. Ryan Raburn lol http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--tCxsY06f--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/uoglllgmplvilig5udf0.gif and never forget
  13. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41YiJKJxaHL.jpg i played this for the first time in my life either last week or the week before, and holy [expletive] is it ever impossible to hit the ball if the other player has half a clue what he/she is doing
  14. Chris Nelson's a pretty stupid baserunner, it seems
  15. Adam Dunn also puts up crazy isoD rates in part due to his Mario Mendoza low averages basically- assuming a constant BB%, with every hit you get, your isoD goes down and isoD also includes HBP; BB rate gives a better picture of plate discipline / patient hitting approach than does isoD, imo
  16. these guys are all going to get promoted in September and we're going to slip so far on the offseason farm system rankings http://cdn.memegenerator.net/images/300x/4238916.jpg
  17. wow, i'm surprised sully hasn't told us the story behind the picture yet
  18. time to give Manny a lifetime contract as hitting coach for every organizational level
  19. don't pay attention to the filters, but the splits the tabbed filters at the top show seasonal totals from everybody with time at those positions, but the splits only show stats accrued at that position (remember the dialogue where Junior Lake was sort of awesome at LF and a complete barf-bag everywhere else?) -Lahair had respectable WAR at 1B and completely disastrous OF WAR in limited duty -i closed the window but i think it was that Mather was replacement level in the IF and like -1.3 or something similarly abominable like that in the OF edit: this probably explains it more succinctly http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/leaderboard-feature-positional-splits/
  20. what you call pretty damn respectable i call bottom-3 in fWAR What you call bottom-3 in fWAR, fangraphs doesn't. believe me, they do
