    Javy is making me sad.
  2. Andy
    Maybe that infamous Dempster nap on deadline day wasn't such a bad thing after all.

    No. We get to have Addison Russell and still make a run for it next year. Yep. If Soler and Bryant are even close to the unstoppable monsters they are now in 2015, plus Lester and whatever other pitching we might get, we should contend.

    Man, Rany really does love Epstein and Hoyer. He was the one that interviewed for a job with them, right? That being said, a good article, and just because it can't be said enough, [expletive] pitchers.

    No. The Cubs won 97 games and actually underperformed. They were the best team in baseball pretty easily and the fact that they lost 3 in a row to LA was pretty much a fluke. Although my irrational side is still annoyed that we let Milwaukee surge into the playoffs when we would have faced the free-falling Mets if they hadn't.

    Castro really hauled ass there.

    Ugh

    Straily 6 shutout innings tonight.

    He's successfully adjusted enough times in his career that it would be a big surprise and a big disappointment to me if he can't do so in MLB.
  10. Andy
    Yes - the other four are all pitching in this Milwaukee series.
  11. Andy
    Soler came into today with a 1.235 OPS across his three levels, 1.131 in Iowa. Also, he's 22.

    JD wasn't kidding, if Baez had been really on that he would've sent it to Sheffield. Good knock though.

    Great AB by Javy
  14. Andy
    Exactly. The games are already bloated with dead time. There's no point in adding anymore when you basically gain nothing because most calls are either moot to the outcome or inconclusive on replay or both. I'm willing to endure the occasional waste of four minutes if it allows for the obviously incorrect call to be overturnable whenever it does occur. It doesn't need to be both. If there were a hard 45-second limit on video before it automatically cuts out, obvious calls are overturned and non-obvious ones aren't. The current system blows.

    Oh look, Edwin saved his blow-up for the 6th.
  16. Andy
    That was a strange AB from Javy.

    The DH is the functional equivalent of moving the ball to halfcourt in the last two minutes of NBA games. Its rationale is "because excitement".
  18. Andy
    Ryan Sweeney makes him look like a genius! I still hate it. Oh, putting the game in the hands of Ryan Sweeney and John Baker is supremely dumb, I agree.

    Ryan Sweeney makes him look like a genius!

    Tomorrow he'll get two hits, including a homer, and won't K and it'll all be fine.

    Not sure where to put this, but the judge hearing the O'Bannon case ruled against the NCAA today. However, her injunction doesn't sound all that 'damaging' to the current system. All of this is, of course, pending appeals, but this all seems very reasonable to me.
  22. Andy
    To protect the cable channel. If you're blacked out of the Rays it doesn't matter where they're playing.
  23. Andy
    this stuff is good. I just read the comment where he said his average in the minors for his career was .250 (actually .278) and OBP was .300 (actually .336). Also no one mentions that he was one of if not the youngest player in all of those leagues and is now the youngest player in the major leagues. Well, 2nd-youngest behind Rougned Odor, but he's the youngest in the NL.
  24. Andy
    Yeah Jesse Rogers was on the radio earlier and said this was the first time since spring training he saw Theo, Jed, and Mcleod all down on the field watching BP at the same time. That's a clear sign Javier Baez is about to be called up.

    If I had to make a pick I'd go with this as well, though I wouldn't be surprised to see one of the Jaxons in the FA spot.
