  1. what's crazy is with these guys if anything it's been the opposite of what he was saying . none of the scouting reports had guys like javy, addy, KB, etc. as great as they are defensively. of course, considering addy and JB were shortstops, they were supposed to be pretty good to good but there wasn't really talk of them being elite impact/difference making defensive players (in fact, some reports even questioned whether they could stick at SS)...and obviously there were some iffy reports on KB at 3B (not saying there weren't good ones too). i just don't think the scouting reports were as high as they should've been on these guys as defenders when they were coming up. That's a really good point. I remember going to see Iowa play a three-game series in OKC and thinking Bryant looked stiff and frankly too tall to play 3B. I was totally sold on Baez though, because he made a number of "Baez" plays in that series, and I had gone into it thinking of him as this error-prone lackadaisical goober
  2. looking. No matter what he ends up being, we'll always have the fact that Kyle was wrong about his defense.
  3. Corey Patterson had a 5 WAR season AFTER the knee injury (granted it was because of his defense) and dusty still tried to turn him into a slap-hitter.
  4. Hahahahha I was thinking the same exact thing.
  5. I'm stuck with the cards announcers and mccarver is so confused at that "pitch"
  6. seriously, Albert Pujols looks like he should be losing body parts when he runs.
  7. its like the cardinals didnt watch the playoffs last year (lol) dont give the cubs extra outs
  8. Haha I turned it back on when I read this and got immediate gratification courtesy of goldy they spent all that money on melancon and they still dont have anyone who can get him the ball
  9. Watching this giants game is reminding me how many of these [expletive] i absolutely hate. they put that Law dork in the game and I almost went into a rage
  10. the seattle one is worse. it's super long and it looks like opening day only
  11. Zobrist got four straight pitches on the outside corner and the indians left their 3B 20 feet off the line the whole at bat
  12. I was cooking dinner and fighting with my wife about something stupid when this happened. I had the laptop on but the game muted and this instantly ended the fight.
  13. So good. Top to bottom. that's what he said
  14. look at that crowd, lol
