  1. *ghana guy has wide open shot* *he passes to a guy in the middle of a swarm of defenders* thanks dude!
  2. they're both at 2.5 fWAR now, so that graphic was probably made yesterday (Rizzo had 0.8 RAR in yesterday's action, Goldschmidt had 1.2) if they updated it today, they'd need to be switched
  3. i'm vaguely recollecting a complete disaster of a game from Matt LeCroy? when Nats tried something like that...
  4. Jeff Carter?
  5. SSR just became physically ill upon seeing that
  6. Cubs have just 2 players with over 100 PA with better than a .315 OBP outside of Rizzo & Valbuena, team OBP is .275
  7. it doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense to me that the WC logo is a bunch of hands grabbing something, when everybody knows that's precisely the thing you never want to do in this sport
  8. it just hit me with his celebration that Mexico's coach is the super saiyan gif guy
  9. brazil has a guy named hulk? ok i'm rooting for them now
  10. oh my appetite is most certainly whetted
  11. i think kaz matsui just killed a guy edit: elbowed him to death it appears
  12. why was the situation so disappointing? the basic consensus was that Aiken/Rodon/Jackson were clear top-3 talents with a stray publication/opinion here & there throwing Kolek into that mix, and one of those guys made it to our pick we just didn't seem to value that player or the non-baseball baggage attached to him
  13. What does that have to do with anything. The question wasn't whether they made the right decision. They were in a crappy situation and made the most of it, but that does not make the draft good. As it turns out it probably would have been better to win more games in 2013, oh well. Or lost more games. only if Hoyer?/McLeod? was lying about Schwarber being #2 on their board
  14. where are people getting this bizarre idea that Schwarber is some offensive monster? his college numbers are about identical to what guys like Tony Sanchez & Jeff Clement did, and the scouting consensus isn't really all that enamored with him, either
  15. cool, i can tolerate the pick better seeing how far underslot he went, but he's still nowhere near my personal top-5
  16. outsize-zone swing% april: 15.7% may: 11.7% june: 7.5% and it's coincided with 1-1/2 months of .900 OPS COME ON DOWN! http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/ff/Rod_Roddy_TPIR.jpg
  17. i strongly think Soler will still be up next year, and Alcantara needs to come up with Olt going down, right about now we'll surely see Hendrick this year, too, probably in early August
  18. http://giant.gfycat.com/BouncyEnergeticAurochs.gif
  19. Hendricks is awesome: 86 pitches through 7, nearly all of them (60) strikes he's so economical, if he had capable fielders he'd probably just throw CGs every turn...go ahead and put him ahead of that weirdo misfit we just picked
  20. I think it means 2 and maybe a close 2 at that? yeah, maybe something like Bryant Soler Baez Alcantara Almora Edwards New Guy
  21. he told Liriano, mess with the best, die like the rest
  22. he was over-aggressive on that play, and looked like a real hacker - zero cool
  23. damn, Josh Harrison's actually sort of good these days: .290/.325/.476 yup, that'd play in our OF/2B
