  1. Our #4 hitter has been pretty horsefeathering great. If you're talking about Baez, then yeah, they should leave him in either of those spots since the cumulative sub-.775 OPS out of either ain't exactly rubbing my rhubarb.
  2. Ride that horse into the ground, Clorbs.
  3. Maybe. Maybe not. There is a dangerous precedent being set where people are jumping to conclusions without the full context. While some of these people may be genuinely bad guys, I don't think it is fair or productive to keep digging through everyone's past for any sign of a potentially offensive remark. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk There's nothing dangerous about that precedent Yeah, I'm struggling to see what merits such an alarmist tone. We all have garbage we've put out there online, and nobody forced us to do so. If you get called out for it, it's not hard at all to own up to it and apologize.
  4. Counterpoint: the only downside to a season of more of these kinds of wins would be all of the boners lasting for more than four hours because of the length of the games.
  5. I want to inject this game right into my veins.
  6. I think Len & JD got into Joe's stash.
  7. Well, now they just have to find some 3-4 hitters*. *In before one of you jackals throws a fit and barrels in here screaming about that's not actually a thing.
  8. Yeah but Randy was getting by on smoke and mirrors and I don’t know if he’s really better than Duensing. This also helps the “depth” and let’s Randy throw more regularly to hopefully fine tune things to become a real thing instead of a guy waiting to blow up because he was getting lucky. Duensing is the last guy in the pen anyways. Not anymore! Loved him in Super Troopers:
  9. Also: that lineup is distinctly pretending like Heyward didn't start sucking again.
  10. http://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/slideshows/2013/09/charlie-illiteracy-its-always-sunny-in-philadelphia/11-S3E14-Mare.nocrop.w670.h450.jpg
  11. Post trade Verlander >>> Pre trade Verlander >>> Current version of Cole Hamels. No one is expecting a 1.06 ERA down the stretch, but if Hamels could drop his ERA by 2.7 runs, I think everyone would appreciate it. Mostly because it would bother you: Hamels xFIP: 4.18 Verlander 2017 Tigers xFIP: 4.41 Meh.
  12. i had forgotten just how bad he was last year, wow 4.15 HR/9, unbelievable. Matt Andriese delivered a similar gift after being traded to Arizona: https://deadspin.com/lights-go-out-on-diamondbacks-game-pedro-gomez-briefly-1827993632 Ouch.
  13. I feel like all of the Verlander mentions seem to be dancing around the perception that he was traded to the Astros and THEN started kicking ass again, but dude was born again baller well before that.
  14. Right, but I don't think Russell is keeping Javy from playing more and Russell is still valuable and plays the SS position better than Javy does. Yes, I was agreeing.
  15. Russell's...OK. But Baez's freakish ascension shouldn't be stacked unfairly against Addison not living up to expectations.
  16. Oh man, I forgot about that; you guys read even crazier now than you did then.
  17. Does Liam Neesons even still post here? Hopefully, since it's his turn again.
  18. [expletive], I'm so annoyed with Russell.
