  1. the Mariners, Nationals and Padres are trying like hell to get this guy
  2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5er6i5-CKQ siiiiick
  3. maybe one should read the thread before complaining about people complaining. except Ping's first post i can imagine he'll still take exception with that one Take exception to what? the lengthy list of pet peeves bolded comments gave me impression he wouldn't really appreciate them, legitimacy aside
  4. fwiw http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/samardzija-not-in-command 20 strikes & 9 balls today though, i'm not concerned about this
  5. it would stand to reason WPA's kinda awful for determining such things
  6. maybe one should read the thread before complaining about people complaining. except Ping's first post i can imagine he'll still take exception with that one
  7. people complaining about players posing for HRs if they could hit a ball 400 feet, they'd admire it too its like watching yourself in a mirror during sex
  8. Don Cherry will tell you all of the Europeans are soft
  9. the question called for an obvious answer that's why Dunn gets bashed more than Howard about his Ks
  10. something that I think is represented/factored into wins is a pitcher's stamina. power pitchers who rack up higher pitch counts and pitch fewer innings will factor in fewer decisions than pitch-to-contact pitchers. there is value in "eating innings" from the standpoint of saving your bullpen. that's not to say I'd rather have Wakefield than Harden, but I'd view a 2.50 ERA much differently from Halladay than Harden. my biggest baseball pet peeve: Kevin Youkilis i really hate watching that guy hit
  11. This is the same as it always is. Ramirez, Zambrano, Lee, Soriano, Soto have all been as productive as you could have expected them to be. It's how Theriot, Dempster, Edmonds have overperformed expectations that put us in the position we're in now instead of closely bunched in the standings with Milwaukee as we'd have projected. Whether or not that's what determines value is debatable. Everything considered, I'm inclined to say Dempster.
  12. .278 & .247 when Howard doesn't K he's making much better contact
  13. rico fata & kessel i don't like Havlat being called a top-5 forward, without the condition 'offensively'. there are many other players i would prefer to have considering their all around game. he is instant offense though.
  14. everyone worth a crap got injured. They are rolling out an outfield of Francisco, Sizemore and Gutierrez these days and Andy Marte is hitting about .150 for what it's worth, Sizemore is pretty decent
  15. if the Padres slash their payroll by $34m, they're one Jake Peavy blown elbow away from probably the first winless season in MLB history
  16. whats with the Brenly bolding?
  17. You said it, man. Nobody effs with the Jesus.
  18. "Creepy Cardinals fan" is kinda redundant
  19. with Angel Berroa, Tony Pena Jr. and Luis Rivas getting regular at bats, I'm not sure I can stomach the idea of further talent dilution
  20. I didn't realize .331/.364/.522/.886 since june was nothing in AAA. And I'm with raw, this is Gary Gaetti part 2. and just 24 K in 174 AB he shortened up his swing and his production has really benefitted
  21. hopefully its paraplegia
  22. his whole sentiment is weird. "the Cardinals are doing quite well without him." well, other than being 7 games back or whatever
  23. there's only 5 people in baseball who OPS that high for any amount of money and i just noticed Ryan Ludwick has the highest SLG in baseball wowsers
  24. I don't think they do, I could be wrong though. If so, Hendry is the obvious choice in the NL and deserves it. it's just MLB - voted on by two execs from each organization in the game. last year mark shapiro won it; the year before it was terry ryan. don't look at who won in 2003
