  1. To put it in perspective, in his prime, Dunn was so bad defensively that he usually peaked around a 3 win player (what Rizzo is right now). He had one 4.9 win season in 04 in which his defensive numbers were flukishly not that bad for some reason. I'm not sure Abreu is THAT bad in the field, but it seems plausible from what I read. Everyone knows how Dunn's defense impacted his value. Unless Abreu's value is SO bad that he can't even play 1B without it dragging him way down then I'd still rather they look to him to man 1B for the foreseeable future as opposed to Rizzo.
  2. Failure here basically is the for real heroin-to-the-forehead-scenario.
  3. Substitute "every money" for "everyone:"
  4. They should have no problem putting him into the lineup immediately. Even with an assumed downgrade from his Cuban numbers he still likely trumps Rizzo. Try Rizzo in the OF or trade him; whatever works. They need this guy. Fuckin' stupid NL and not having the DH.
  5. Just saw that too. [expletive] it, sign him, who cares. Yeah, seriously; who gives a [expletive] who he is "blocked" by? The guy has put up retardedly insane numbers. If this is actually happening there's basically no excuse to not throw whatever it takes at him to sign him.
  6. Pretty safe to chalk this one up to stupidity: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/jack-clark-accuses-albert-pujols-justin-verlander-ped-171518294.html
  7. Of course he said that. The Cubs said variations of the same sentiment before this season and the last one.
  8. Everyone here is regularly wrong about these kind of things, but man, when Meph was wrong he tended to be SPECTACULARLY wrong. It's oddly impressive.
  9. TEACH US THE MYSTERIES OF BABIP AGAIN, OH MIGHTY HONORARY DAKOTAN.
  10. Yes to the second part. But I wouldn't call it trolling. He's making his point. He's making meatballish posts ridiculing advanced analysis and I don't actually think he's a meatball, so it's probably trolling. Pretty questionable that that's what is going on here.
  11. Watch it, David's gonna show up to call everyone morons in a second.
  12. http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/250x250/37219526.jpg I kinda feel the same way; he needs someone as catastrophically bad as Santo to play off of. Moreland is just too mediocre.

  14. Daniel Murphy looks like a total sleazebag.
  15. Because Barney has basically no upside if he isn't playing fantastic defensively, and he'll be 28 after this season. That you're seemingly lumping him in with Rizzo and Castro is...odd.
  16. Love Len basically [expletive] all over Kaplan making Cutler's performance in practice his lead story.
  17. RIZOO!
  18. CubinNY really got burned by his investments into Jukt Micronics back in the day.
  19. Thank God that Soler has singlehandedly saved "signing Cubans" from being the FO's kryptonite.
  20. I really do believe that Ted Lilly just sits around on his couch, staring blankly ahead at nothing, just like David Puddy.
  21. WHO OR WHAT DO YOU POSSIBLY THINK YOU'RE REPLYING TO.
