  1. honestly, Jerry Remy's worse to listen to than Hawk his accent is too obnoxious to tolerate, and of course all the terrible [expletive] that happened with his son makes me hate him even more
  2. So if Bonny actually did this, would it be the greatest single season of all time? the best-ever fWAR is Babe Ruth's 1923: 15.0 more recently, Bonds had a 12.5-win season in '01
  3. using RAR for as long as i can remember, 1 WAR = 10 RAR, but that seems to have changed some: 5.2 RAR for Charlie Blackmon gets rounded to .6 WAR, but 5.1 for Yangervis Solarte gets rounded to .5 edit: a win's now worth 9.386 runs so, more accurately... 160G WAR pace Castro: 4.7 Rizzo: 7.9 Emilio: 16 Jr. Lake: 3
  4. 4.4 and 7.4, to be more specific oh, and 15 for Emilio (19 if you include defense)
  5. Chauncey Billups, maybe? there aren't really any good white comps either, though; he led the B1G in 3pt% (by a ton), free throw attempts, and had a strong assist rate...it's a unique skillset
  6. SportsCenter ‏@SportsCenter 1h Michigan sophomore Nik Stauskas will enter 2014 NBA Draft. (via @GoodmanESPN) » pic.twitter.com/Tvqiz280Iv SportsCenter ‏@SportsCenter 32m UPDATE: Michigan G Nik Stauskas says he has not yet made his final decision about NBA Draft. » http://es.pn/1etR0Z3 good job there
  7. and the other side of the coin: http://m.mlb.com/video/v31947701/cinstl-hamilton-shows-off-his-speed-in-40-win/
  8. currently with the best xFIP in baseball (and swinging strike %)
  9. a good article on the topic: http://grantland.com/features/studying-art-pitch-framing-catchers-such-francisco-cervelli-chris-stewart-jose-molina-others/
  10. that pitcher has certainly disgraced himself
  11. http://cdn0.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/31347173/2ikk2wt.0_standard_783.0.gif
  12. he didn't even record a single hit in the AFL!
  13. both he & Rizzo have the same wRC+, fwiw
  14. Top 100 guy going into next year? Wasn't he fringe on a list or two already? no https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ajfbx29vjFfQdE9jMFZWeFpYV3dBS0o3VGU0cUVZdEE&usp=sharing
  15. agreed, and i'd still take Taillon/Bundy/Bauer/Strasburg/Harvey in a second
  16. new market inefficiency: the floater
  17. i eagerly await mentions of "unsung hero: Devin Booker"
  18. best coaching job he's done
  19. a bunt should never be a surprise when Jon Villar is batting
  20. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2014&month=0&season1=1871&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=14,30&filter=&players=0 Andruw Jones: #23 all-time in career fWAR, by age 30
  21. Cubs Minor League Leaderboard: Hitters - http://tinyurl.com/CubsMILB-H Pitchers - http://tinyurl.com/CubsMILB-P i only added to last year's, so some NP leftovers like Shoulders & Zych are still there
