  1. i don't blame Eakin too much there, it looks worse in real time than replays; you see him trying to squeak by sideways but there's no lane goalies shouldn't be dawdling with the puck for 6+ seconds like that expecting the forecheck to idly wait for the breakout, make them live and you get rid of this somewhat, as well as Mike Smith types trolling for majors replay @ 23s exonerates him somewhat imo
  2. he throws quite the floaterpoor mans Chad Pennington? Scuffy McGee
  3. teams 22/30 combined *on threes* in first half of UM-UCLA...
  4. Some combination of him and Andy Reid are pretty underrated, I think. Since Reid came to KC only the Patriots, Broncos, and Seahawks have more wins. 20-3 run they're currently on, pretty unbelievable
  5. can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs, any good cook will tell you that
  6. don't terribly mind this, but it's more that i can conceive other reasonable packages i'd be more excited by than just a single year of Davis, for Jorge
  7. Got it. Well this scenario of not having Javy isn't that big of a deal to me over whoever the back up SS would be because Javy would be mostly a glove only backup, IMO, if he has to expand to a starting role for a ~month with not having the luxury of being protected vs RHP and facing favorable pitching matchups. You mean a month like October where he played like a cheat code for three weeks? (world series not included)
  8. i'm of course skeptical he'll just carry through +15 fielding / .340 babip / 24% K going forward people probably don't fully appreciate his platoon limitations either
  9. what if i told you this is Javy's ceiling
  10. i fantasize Moncada as Joe Morgan so i like Southsiders' end of the deal better here
  11. http://blogs-images.forbes.com/markgreene/files/2015/07/dominos-falling.jpg?width=640&height=434
  12. Is Alex Smith Elite?
  13. seems like a worthwhile endeavor with better predictive value than cruder, better understood methods, but with how it factors framing, umpires, i partially wonder if theres's the element more of "what an era might look like if everyone was forced to throw pitches in the heart of the strike zone", which then seems to rate stuff and not pitching effectiveness or value all told, it's amazing to consider how a stat could make a full 3.3 runs allowed/9(!) correction on Kyle Hendricks vs. Robbie Ray specifically; maybe exit velo gets incorporated in alternate corrective iterations
  14. a week of bad 2nd halves from Michigan sports i guess
  15. i beg to differ
  16. league-best PP surely played a big role...i think Werenski is Calder front-runner at the moment
  17. funny too, because whoever makes it in there (B1G champ / Colorado) will be somebody we beat cleanly
  18. career .311/.382/.411 w/men on base, .272/.331/.366 w/bases empty - clutch!
  19. Real American Hero
  20. if i rewatched all-22 film of this game i'd probably die of rage
  21. horsefeathers 2016
  22. Perry's touching the punter and the Cole facemask grab were both inconsequential and have this from being really comfortable right now
  23. it's a real kind of bizarro world where announcers are singing praises for Michigan's size and defense
  24. i remember there being some great posts where he highlighted his love of squat horsefeathering
