  1. you might want to check out the local community college for a refresher course in basic math stuff
  2. yay more futbol
  3. that beautiful, beautiful man
  4. i think i'm probably watching the wrong game, as far as our fortunes are considered
  5. looks like espn3 is overloaded edit: hooray, entry!
  6. probably still a defensive upgrade from Vitters, though
  7. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7zk2jnZO01qh6ohxo1_500.png
  8. for the past two seasons, Travis Wood has higher total fWAR than Shark
  9. you can't say pitch in the gam thread take it to the soccer elite thread
  10. i loved both Joe Morgan and Steve Stone when i was younger
  11. SSR will surely die of laughter upon reading that report
  12. his most recent performance is his best, so it stands to reason his projection would be noticeably improved
  13. preseason ZiPS had Alcantara down for .712 OPS, and that was before he's had so far a career-best season in the highest level he's played at anything's possible, but projections should be reasonably north of .700 for him
  14. it's actually pretty easy to say "that guy sucks" without looking like a pathetic feeble spaz "You are wrong and I am right on both counts" is pretty likely the most embarrassing declaration of all, even regardless of whatever's being referenced
  15. a June '15 regular lineup of CF Alcantara 3B Valbuena 1B Rizzo SS Castro RF Bryant LF Lake 2B Baez C Castillo seems pretty cool Alcantara should be up really soon where we can give him a few months to acclimate, Ruggiano can man the fort in right for a month or two, and it might still be worth trying to retain Bonifacio for another year or so as a versatile utility guy back half is still pretty whiffy / streaky, but there's nobody you can leisurely groove a few FBs to with impunity, which'll be nice for a change want to spend more money? buy the Cuban (Tomas) and install him in LF, and pursue Maeda with avarice
  16. for the last month, he's in pretty good company http://i57.tinypic.com/2yy4k1k.jpg
  17. 2.82 ERA / 1.11 WHIP in 19 Cubs starts* *buoyed by 6.8 H/9, a far cry from his 9.3 H/9 in the AL EAST
  18. fwiw, Dave Cameron thinks he's broken http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/shelby-miller-looks-broken/ (from April, but he's stuck to it when asked more recently)
  19. Shelby Miller feels like Jeremy Hellickson from a couple years ago, where you know they'd like to move on, but they'll always command way too much to actually make it happen (and he might really be kind of bad)
  20. i'd be fine with Gonzales/Martinez, Alex Reyes, Kelly/Grichuk/Ramsey give 'em Wright, if they need to back-fill C-Mart
  21. 1.018 OPS vs. lefties, 16.7% Ks .773 OPS vs. righties, 25.7% Ks i don't know for sure what to make of that, but i figure our resident Alcantara expert would deem them pretty non-prospect-y on the whole
  22. no, it's cbs-created for the right guy; he's actually the only result that comes up when i search "gonzales"
  23. waiting on SSR to inform me if that's supposed to be impressive or not
