  1. Ray. I [expletive] hate Ian. Me too. WHAT [expletive] IAN GUY
  2. unlike the other cheap available options, he surely has the potential for more today's moves make me wonder why Theo hasn't dismissed Wilken; three recent very high picks of his he's let go without pause
  3. wow, career 11.3 k/9 and 6.1 h/9 for Weathers (and 7.1 bb/9) so, another Marmol!
  4. Troy Renck, Rockies @TroyRenck 8 mins Rockies have sent ian stewart and Casey weathers to cubs for tyler Colvin and DJ lamehieu

  6. the vast majority of the people on this board would have hated all of those signings except cj wilson. a reliever for 27 mil? jose reyes for over 100? pujols for 254? buerhle for almost 60? stop your whining, those are bad contracts. if we'd had a big SS need, i'd probably have liked Reyes' signing quite a bit
  7. so, the Angels - who plays? 1B: pujols OF: wells - trout - hunter DH: trumbo, abreu i really wonder if they'd part with Bourjos somehow; i'd for sure kick the tires, if that was a possibility

  9. i expected you instead to bold the last sentence for better emphasis
  10. They've been left in the cold, but have also gotten their man in the past. they're like the mounties
  11. how i handicapped it, back in February (page 18): so i overstated Boston and NYY's chances, but i hit big on possibility of LAA and MIA edit: hey, another prescient prophecy (April '10): except it was like four guys, i guess
  12. and he won't be wrong to do so. fukudome at -11 and dejesus at +14 per 150 games in right field is a joke. prior to last year, DeJesus averaged +10 the previous six seasons per TZ yeah, there's a weird, odd, gaping disparity between UZR and TZ for Fukudome, but DeJesus should legitimately be regarded as a very strong fielder
  13. "The only thing you know about pitching is that you can't hit it." -Bob Gibson, to McCarver
  14. hopefully they were wielding pitchforks and torches and judas cradles there, i saved you the trouble ssr
  15. as far as I'm concerned, Aaron Rodgers can be the QB for the Packers as long as he likes!
  16. lol, Dunn underperformed his salary by $25M (!) last season
  17. I don't follow. Headley has a .735 career OPS @ .339 BABIP, correct? Yes, and with that production he's been a 2 win player. better than that, actually like i said before, he was a complete disaster in LF; assuming no Kouzmanoff and he had just played 3B exclusively, with even just average defense (he's a career +7.8 UZR/150 there), these would be his win totals the last four seasons 2.0 (91 games played) 2.9 4.9 2.7 (113 games played) so, in 3.25 seasons worth of games, he'd have totaled 12.5 WAR (3.85 per full season) he's pretty good
  18. mysteriously, you're ignoring the effect of Petco's HR suppression on his OPS too on another note, Headley's like Stewart in that his WAR was significantly hindered from playing out of position for so much time in 08-09 it's a really easy argument to make that his floor is a 3-win player right now
  19. he had a .371 babip his last three years in the minors
  20. hey guys i corrected Joey Votto's anomalous babip and hr/fb rates to average and learned that he actually should have a .730 ops
  21. YOU'RE ACTUALLY SAYING "hmm, that road avg. doesn't look quite right, let's arbitrarily just take away 15% of his hits"

  23. the 2008 team showed a lot of class and sportsmanship, but it...somehow went largely unnoticed basically, that's a really dumb criticism
