  1. when im commish: 1.)Teams can sign maxed out FAs on a sliding scale, so ok you have steph curry for $30m, the next max you can offer is $22.5m, after that $15m, or something like that. 2.) There's no draft, all college players who lose eligibility or declare become FAs. 3.) There is a lottery that determines which teams (of those who missed the playoffs or have traded into lottery position) have higher budgets to sign "rookies." This way Sacramento can offer Ben Simmons 5/150 if they want, but the Warriors can only offer him 5/25 or something like that. There is certainly no downside to this or way to rig the system.
  2. the problem i have with vlad (as much as it can be a problem) is that he looks like miguel cabrera, only he's 19 and he reminds me of 31 year old miguel cabrera
  3. yeeeeeeesh. mariners have to be estatic if this can somehow get them out of that contract
  4. I like how the reality is that out of very very very very few teams in our lifetimes, every good and very good team goes up and down and has good pitching sometimes and good hitting at others and we just don’t notice it because we only watch the cubs
  5. "If you look at the metrics, Quintana has been one of the most reliable starters in all of major league baseball"
  6. *almora hits a slow ground to the left side* Len: Teheran's gotta hurry!
  7. (derwood post) no jason heyward vs a righty?
  8. "wtf is derwood talking about" - me in the every thread
  9. Going all the way back to 1990, only 14 starters threw more innings than Tyler Chatwood's 2018 (coming into today) and had a worse BB/9. Technically just 12, really, since Dontrelle Willis and Oliver Perez each appear on the list twice.
  10. this uber-patient cubs team is so much better to watch. I love it when they start a series off by burning up the bullpen in game 1
  11. it must be so obnoxious pitching to kris bryant
  12. the cubs are more fun when they play terrible teams
  13. If Jeff Loria is ever murdered, you'd be my first suspect, so this is surprising coming from you Well, he said it was immoral. It's definitely not stupid to let the cities pay the bill. I read it like he meant "why are these stupid cities paying for stadiums the teams can absolutely afford," not "why is it wrong that cities are paying for it?"
  14. i am 100 percent certain i could beat almora in a race
  15. I think my proudest moment as a Cubs fan was calling Russell's game 6 grand slam, and calling the distance within like 3ft. My life has been all downhill since that. everyone's has.
  16. obviously ive seen this gif before but this is its perfect utilization
