  1. Wood was like 3 pitches into his start when i noticed it and pointed it out on here, so there wasn't some tactical advantage i could even be employing; i already had maxed my starts the day prior, averaging 26 points from them but if you're able to dig into the Roadkill Rulebook and locate some obscure clause that'll reverse your earned loss on account of some dumb technicality, then so be it, i guess
  2. as for Hosmer, i'll default to this tweet: Rany Jazayerli ‏@jazayerli Jun 19 Is Eric Hosmer aware that the rules allow the batter to decline to swing at a pitch?
  3. better development, mainly also, MILB career wRC+: Moustakas - 125 Hosmer - 136 Myers - 147 Bryant - 207, lol
  4. in 2014 a SB is worth .2 runs, and a CS is -.38 runs [source] so, 69% seems the likely approximate cut-off for the average team, and probably like 50% for our vomitous offense
  5. Alex Wood wasn't showing as being scheduled to pitch before, so i left him in there i've already used my 3 starts so somebody will need to deduct whatever points he gets
  6. Ryan Sweeney should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell
  7. Jeff Sullivan talks tempered expectations http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/dont-worry-about-a-cubs-crowd-that-doesnt-exist/
  8. http://31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lu7j57tFwG1qjgyuwo1_500.gif
  9. a couple years ago, i would have bet a decent amount that Cano would finish his career as a Yankee
  10. Law put Appel 33rd on his list
  11. i think i will root for the Norwich City Futbol Club, since i was in fact born in a city called Norwich or, would that be a mistake?
  12. I don't think you remember that. i vividly remember seeing those arguments at GRB
  13. his career high in WAR (which he'll probably match this year) is 3; i don't have too much of an issue with it, even though personally i'd probably have fit him somewhere toward the beginning of the list
  14. *checks Kevin Encarnacion's KC numbers* [expletive], another summer of this [expletive]?
  15. yeah, Gallo has a 52% contact rate in AA Baez was 65.5%, Bryant 69%
  16. [attachment=0]Capture.jpg[/attachment]
  17. Evan Gattis last year - 39 games in LF & 48 games at C his fielding in LF was pretty dismal, though
  18. early on, weren't reporters on twitter claiming Alcantara was mentioned in the deal, only to clarify later it wasn't actually Arismendy, but Raul
  19. was it McLeod who drafted Spangenberg with the very next pick?
  20. Chris Davis had 7 fWAR last year, now he's half the way through the season as a sub-replacement player
  21. i think we stopped that, though abuck mostly alluded to it and didn't make formal decree so who knows
  22. from July 1: 72% contact rate in July (45% swing rate)
  23. Henry Rowengartner was acting kinda drunk
  24. hate Shawn Estes, Alex Gonzalez, Todd Hollansworth, Jose Hernandez
