  1. we'll always have the 3 top-10 picks spent on OFs producing no league average starter
  2. i'm a little bit irrationally upset that Tebow's holding the ball out like that with his right hand in this thumbnail; i can't see a single circumstance where that makes any sense to do
  3. [extremely rob manfred voice] it is the pace of play that is turning fans off the sport, not owners who are perfectly content to lose rather than pay players fair market value
  4. this is kinda funny https://twitter.com/Cianaf/status/1171113233895297024
  5. Schwarber 2nd in ISO since the start of August
  6. JD Martinez seems like a near-perfect analogue, but all bets are off in this newfound era of collusion so, maybe?
  7. help to ease the sting of trading away Emilio Bonifacio
  8. i choose to view this as a good thing, they're (hopefully) breaking down his wimpy dick swing and reworking it to somehow add loft
  9. Danny Santana: 13 HR, .375 SLG in 364 career games ('14-'18) 17 HR, .589 SLG in 84 games ('19)
  10. HR/FB '16: 4.8% '17: 9.2% '18: 6.2% '19: 16.8% i have a theory about why he's markedly improved..
  11. all this hand-wringing for a guy with a lower wRC+ than Jon Lester
  12. for the Addison signing, who isn't? this character here who is oddly insistent that we're all mad at the wrong guy
  13. fwiw i am mad at Theo also
  14. i uh...think that Descalso is the backup SS now
  15. because Robel's been awesome and Russell's further settling in as a below-average player with dwindling upside they felt comfortable making whatever statement this is
  16. that was tried but only the hairline got hit
  17. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. was demoted in the middle of April, hit ok in the minors and since his call-up has 16 HR in 40 games
  18. in semi-related news, Yordan Alvarez might be Carlos Delgado [attachment=0]Capture.PNG[/attachment]
  19. https://theathletic.com/1037205/2019/06/20/stark-home-run-madness-it-cant-just-be-the-baseballs-or-can-it/ THE THOUSAND HOME RUN PYRAMID – So if you made it through the previous paragraph, you won’t be surprised to learn that at this clip, we’d see 6,591 home runs hit this year, which would be … the most in history! And about 1,000 more than last year (5,585)! And nearly 2,400 more than were hit a mere five years ago (4.186)! Even at the height of the PED era, the most bombs launched in any season was “only” 5,695 (in 2000). We could see that total eclipsed by 900 homers this year.
  20. still kinda angry at Almora's dip horsefeathers stuck in quicksand baserunning
  21. funny to me that the only reason this series is in doubt for GSW is because Klay hurt himself flopping
  22. i mean, Sealboy had 10 HR in almost 1000 career PA coming into the year and now he's already reached a dozen for the season, we're not even to June yet
  23. why is the thinking that he won't be an absolute defensive abyss in the OF? (he'll be an absolute defensive abyss in the OF) all for the luxury of saddling ourselves with unnecessary Russell Martin type of contract
  24. you guys don't deserve nice things
