  1. *checks Kevin Encarnacion's KC numbers* [expletive], another summer of this [expletive]? I'm sure you found that he didn't do very well in those 16 games. And then didn't bother to check his numbers in Boise. And was then severely injured in a car crash and hasn't played since, making him an awful example. But I apologize for my interest in somebody who isn't marveled over in every thread. A 20 year old in the DSL?
  2. Are you seriously using All star appearances as an argument? *not that I disagree with your premise, just your reasoning. theres plenty of other metrics to use to make that statement with. come on. I just that because it happened yesterday. that's not a metric though, it's just a factoid
  3. He exceeded FG's definition of "good player" (which is what Cameron said he isn't) 2 times before his 23rd birthday and is well on his way to exceeding it again this year. Scrub 0-1 WAR Role Player 1-2 WAR Solid Starter 2-3 WAR Good Player 3-4 WAR All-Star 4-5 WAR Superstar 5-6 WAR MVP 6+ WAR I don't think you mean "exceeded". He has achieved that level, on the low end, twice. He has basically played 4.3 seasons and has averaged about 2.3 WAR on a per season basis, for whatever that is worth.
  4. Because college and JC are two different things.
  5. Huh? Since 6/15 .282/.339/.409 (.748) You and nuts have different definitions of suck, I guess.... Or different definitions of month.
  6. I've been wondering that myself. However, there is precedent, Barret Loux: Isn't that the point? That they are offering the minimum to get around the rules?
  7. Your theory only makes sense if you can be assured of actually acquiring an "exceptional defensive catcher" through other means. You can't be assured of that.
  8. well nevermind then. What the hell was he cooking?
  9. Stuff like this makes me hate us not having a Hard Knocks even more I think we would discover that nobody likes Forte. Why In that video it looks like he was by himself the whole time, while most of the others were with some teammates.
  10. It's a system set-up by the owners specifically designed to exploit these players as much as possible.
  11. Huh? He's had to pay huge fines for among other things, not hiring blacks because, "you can't fire them" and women because they have babies. His company has provided bribes and kick backs to defense contractors. They let him buy the team so they could move them to the AL. How does this situation "go to show you" anything about that?
  12. looks like a propane grill with no propane tank and likely a pile of coals with a crap ton of lighter fluid.

  15. It's my invention, dammit. after I pointed it out to you
  16. The eyes and nose specifically are oddly close together (and just small) for a big man with a big head like his. There is a lot of forehead, cheek and chin surface area, or outer face if you will.
  17. Why should the kids' adviser shut up? He absolutely should speak up on his behalf. because he's bitching like the the Astros OWE him 6.5Mil. If they think he's got a shaky elbow, then they dont owe him anything. If i'm an astros fan and this guy is headed for TJS, i'd much rather have the 2nd pick next year. Even more so because eff all the pitchers. Okay, then if you are an Astros fan you can go ahead and express that wish, but in the meantime it is his adviser's job to advocate on behalf of the player.
  18. You might as well get one for each title. The first team to get a full circle around the neck wins and the league disbands.
  19. That's not true is it?
