  1. I’m a little impatient when watching Q pitch. Hoping he’s <30 pitches through 1.
  2. I haven’t been here in awhile and was gonna start to bitch about the frustrating play as of late, but decided I’m not gonna do that.
  3. He’s such a POS. Can MLB come back with a fine after the fact?
  4. There’s no reason why J Hey shouldn’t drive in a run here.
  5. Aren’t they receiving the 75th pick (or around that) for Davis, who signed for over $50 million? You're right, when I saw that in double checking I thought Davis was under 50 million. The 50 million distinction is if you're a revenue sharing recipient, so Arrieta would be comp round B regardless. Dumb question but...where does round B fall then?
  6. Yeah it’s ST and his first start so stats are mostly meaningless but that’s a rough debut for a guy who sucked last time he was in MLB and hasn’t pitched in MLB in years. I do think the Cardinals' rotation has the chance to implode if Mikolas sucks and Wainwright continues to struggle. Wacha has had problems staying healthy. I think the Cubs have a much stronger rotation now. We should make a thread or poll for when we think MM will get fired lol. I'll say right around early August after the trade deadline. If MM gets fired (which I would thoroughly enjoy watching Cardinal Nation lose their horsefeathers), Oquendo is probably next up.
  7. Love the Russell GS. Goosebumps every time.
  8. Single game tix for the Marlins went on sale yesterday on their site. I got some good seats for opening day, face value $71 per. You might wanna jump on booking that flight as its spring break/easter that wknd.
  9. Awesome. Earlier this am I bought opening day tix for the Marlins / Cubs opener. Looking forward to seeing his first start as a Cub.
  10. Word from the Darvish camp is that he’s holding out for a similar contract that Jimmy G got from the Niners 5/$137.5.
  11. Agreed with all of this. I think teams are not offering him a 6th year most specifically because of the TJ surgery, seems reasonable to me, while Darvish believes $125 should be $150 or even $160 if he is taking 5 years which also shouldn’t be crazy all things considered except for that gd salary cap. I really horsefeathers the luxury tax/salary cap nonsense and want it to go back to the hell it came from. If Yu wants more years but isn’t getting it, offer him an opt out after year 2 or 3. If the opt outs have been included in a 5 year deal - what the hell is he waiting for?
  12. My 70yo aunt posts nothing but gifs on facebook. She also types in all caps. geriatrics ANNND millennials. THE WORST The Geriatric Millennials...good band name.
  13. I want to side with the players but they’re the dumbasses that agreed to the soft cap, which was never in place previously.
  14. It’s the players fault for signing the CBA. There was never a cap for years and the players caved and got taken to the hoop by the owners. They can renegotiate on 2021 when the current CBA expires.
  15. Why not your left nut?
  16. Here's a list of the 2018 (as of 11/17) small market teams receiving competitive balance picks. Revenue is a factor in determining who makes the list. How in the hell does StL make the list? They proudly boast attendance of 3M+ every year, they make a ton on merchandising and have fielded a competitive team for years. 31. Pirates 32. Rays (compensation for failing to sign 2017 draft pick Drew Rasmussen) 33. Orioles 34. Padres 35. Diamondbacks 36. Royals 37. Indians 38. Rockies 39. Cardinals Competitive Balance Round B (after second round) 70. Marlins 71. Athletics 72. Rays 73. Reds 74. Brewers 75. Twins Maybe the factor in determining whether or not a team receives a CB pick is simply calculating the average W/L record over a 3-5 year period.
  17. I’ve reached total boredom. Some of Yu’s favorites.... Animal: Ewe Song: Yu are so beautiful, to me Band: U2 Driving maneuver: U-turn Car: Yugo Vacation spot: Yucatán Peninsula
  18. Should the title be changed to The Yu Darvish Sweater?
