  1. Yes, his 2.11 ERA and 2.37 FIP over the last two seasons indicate that he isn't suited to close. this is in the mythical dreamworld some fans envision where Kyle Hendricks is our 5th starter, even when he's evenly paced Felix Hernandez for FI value for the past year and we have 2004 Eric Gagne to push Rondon down in the closer pecking order
  2. the Tigers prioritized pitching above all else, so no, we were clearly fucked there
  3. the prospect of replacing Castro's bat with Montero's is desirable to say the very least
  4. i think it's just that Maddon/advanced scouting identified lefties as a problem area for some of those starters we've faced and stacked all the LH hitters atop the order to exploit that also, THE BOOK suggests the 4th-best hitter bats 3rd, though that's pretty old research
  5. i'm very excited for this
  6. Schwarber can't frame but he hits dongs; you take the bad with the good...
  7. so they're a well-run organization (fyi, Panik was a 1st-rounder)
  8. and 2/2 in the rainout, so he only gets credited with 4/5 instead of his righfully earned 7/7
  9. http://ih1.redbubble.net/image.61095920.1396/fc,550x550,white.jpg
  10. oh damn i feel like my whole life has been a lie
  11. Contreras seems worthy of top-150 prospect consideration, and of placement in our top five
  12. Leal is LHP partial return for Campana (haha), Pineyro is RHP return for Scott Hairston and given up for Haren
  13. damn it Addi just take the thigh bruise
  14. Joe must have brought back his magician for his finest trick yet
  15. I get what you are saying, but that's not really a silver lining. I'll always pick being in position to win in the final inning no matter who has to pitch. but that's not the choice here...the choice is having rondon available or not having him available. it's possible Maddon goes to Hunter now as closer B
  16. Ventura Alvarado might not be very good... [vine]https://vine.co/v/eH7Ju6Lre5a[/vine] [vine]https://vine.co/v/eH7tDEXD30q[/vine]
  17. whatever you do, don't look at Welington Castillo's AZ numbers
  18. A: enjoy having an awesome backup C for the first time in...forever?
  19. Zobrist / Kendrick / Alcantara! or... http://l3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/0TEewnNh.ITsIuPffM81IQ--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTIzMDtxPTc1O3c9MzQ1/https://s.yimg.com/xe/i/us/sp/v/mlb_cutout/players_l/20150406/9545.png
