  1. hey i'm counting on him now to have a 25 HR week to vault me to a share of 1st place
  2. for players that qualify on fangraphs pre-29 and post-30 Jonathan Lucroy (lol) has the biggest dropoff in WAR per 650 PA Lucroy 7.6 to 1.7 Pujols 7.5 to 1.7 Griffey 6.7 to 1.3 Nomar 6 to 1 Banks 6.6 to 1.9 Andruw Jones 6 to 1.9 some other old-timers mixed in there: Frank Thomas (PIT), George Sisler other notable crash & burn in recent memory: Ryan Howard, Mauer, Wieters, Piazza, Hanley, Darryl Strawberry, Mark Kotsay, Prince Fielder, Matt Kemp, Bobby Abreu, Vlad Sr., Andre Dawson all had 3+ WAR difference in production level after turning 30 Kotsay's is funny because he wasn't even that great younger but then he averaged -1.2 WAR per full season in his 30s
  3. he needs to come out and admit he's really 51
  4. Counterpoint: Every dollar Kris Bryant takes as a member of the Chicago Cubs is a dollar out of Tom Rickett's pocket, and while I agree that it is a very stupid system and yes, his 2026 production will probably not match the amount he is getting paid that year, he deserves that money way more than pretty much anyone else in the world. it's not a very compelling counterpoint, given there's a very limited number of dollars PTR lets Jed take out of his pocket
  5. he'll be 30 next opening day and he turned down $200M love him but i have a hard time seeing a megadeal panning out very well factoring age, recurring injuries, lack of any long-term supporting cast (and self-imposed limited budget) prob best to let that dream die
  6. ngl i'd have taken that trade (if i actually believed in their '20 Love evaluation)
  7. should have an assist already too :-"
  8. on appearances alone i would probably give Matt Duffy the highest odds to be on the 'educational process' list
  9. ho ly horsefeathers
  10. head-scratcher, from my pov
  11. C Will Smith 50 1B Luke Voit 75 2B Max Muncy 100 3B Vlad Guerrero Jr 50 SS Trevor Story 100 OF Juan Soto 100 OF Ian Happ 25 OF Mike Trout 200 OF Cody Bellinger 200 DH Miguel Sano 100 1000 bench PM
  12. tbh i was kinda unbothered by it knowing we would've gotten summarily destroyed by the Zags Final Four would've been a great feat esp without Livers though
  13. only in March Madness you can have Farva from Super Troopers knock out a title favorite
  14. The horsefeathering internet has been no help. best theory i found is German ancestry and it used too be something like Aßmas which is great bc then it should be Assmass https://www.ancestry.com/search/categories/37/?name=_assmass
  15. Oral Roberts pulled it off wow
  16. Buckeyes down 6 w/2:05 left in OT.. also i wish they'd explain why Abmas pronounced "Ace-miss"
  17. It's my dislike of Juwan Howard seemingly ducking those games and dissing Northwestern and Maryland along the way. I don't believe he's this sanctimonious great guy the media falls all over themselves to portray either, I'm probably wrong. It's just my irrational hatred of the Fab Five coming through. No you’re right, he’s a [expletive] easy there jaydee
  18. i believe that's just def. rebounding rate
  19. a UM blog takes a more analytical look at B1G awards, argues Cockburn over Garza for conf. POY https://mgoblog.com/content/big-ten-reset-hands-out-awards-part-one
  20. he's actually quite a good fielder
  21. ayo dosunmu ewing theory
  22. [tweet] [/tweet]
  23. ManU bridged the gap some in goal differential today lol
