    Oh, you spent all those words talking about Almora as a joke? Sure, ok

    You couldn't even get Meadows' age right and that was your whole thing in the previous post, so I assume "we" is me? I will politely pass Nah, but in their defense it's basically impossible to market corner or DH bats who break out in their mid-late 20s as superstars unless they're David Ortiz or Edgar Martinez. Would I consider them elite hitters? Heck yeah, they're 9th and 11th/9th and 12th in wOBA/wRC+ among guys who took as many or more PAs this decade So you think every player’s age 22 season is the same? Or comparable? For reasons? Or maybe their first full year in the majors is a better indicator? Oh, wait, I’m arguing with the person who spent a dozen posts trying to convince us of Almora’s value (lololol)

    Meadows was 24 in 2019, put up .2 fWAR at 23 While shuttling between AAA for two different clubs. How about we compare first full years instead of same age years
  4. Derwood
    Meadows was a 4.0 fWAR player at age 23. Eloy was a 1.9 at age 22

    There’s maybe 5000 people in Yankee Stadium for this Pinstripe Bowl

    I'm picking OSU (not that I want to), but I think Fields' knee injury is a legitimate concern. If he's slow and cant be as mobile, a lot of what makes their offense great will be affected imo. Clemson hasn’t faced a defense anywhere close to what OSU is rolling out there. I don’t get why all the “experts” are picking Clemson

    Dabo sounds like he'd be a good fit to coach UCF Hey Dabo, how about you shut up until you beat an actual football team?
  8. Derwood
    Yes we heard you say that the last 3 years Stay tuned for my take in 2020

    You shouldn’t be bowl eligible if losing your bowl gives you a losing record for the year

    Eloy is a superstar slugger? Eh HR at age 22: Bonds 25 Griffey 27 Frank Robinson 31 Mantle 27 ARod 42 Jimenez 31 Pujols 34 Aaron 26 And because I'm bored: HR/fWAR at age 22: Bonds 25 / 3.3 Griffey 27 / 6.9 Frank Robinson 31 / 6.6 Mantle 27 / 4.9 ARod 42 / 4.3 Jimenez 31 / 1.9 Pujols 34 / 5.4 Aaron 26 / 6.9

    Hopefully they’re playing their backup LB too

    Eloy is a superstar slugger? Eh HR at age 22: Bonds 25 Griffey 27 Frank Robinson 31 Mantle 27 ARod 42 Jimenez 31 Pujols 34 Aaron 26 Lol, now compares eras. In Aaron's age 22 year (1956), 12 players hit 30+ HR's. In 2019, 58 players hit 30+ HR's

    Anderson had a fantastic season last year, but seems to be reasonably adequate if he does come back to earth. Eloy looks to be a superstar slugger at 22 years old assuming injuries don't get in his way. Madrigal looks like the old-fashioned gritty 2B (certainly more Nellie Fox than Ryne Sandberg), but he could have a decent ML career. Not sure why you don't like them. Eloy is a superstar slugger? Eh

    Mariota is poo

    Season tickets will go up in price next season, no doubt

    I didn’t know it at the time I posted it.

    Sir this is not a Google It was more of a rhetorical question, as I assumed no one here would know (nor should) ps the answer is 1996

    Penn State is ranked? When was the last time that happened?
  21. Derwood
    Why? This is an actual decent signing
  22. Derwood
    Consider the person posting
  23. Derwood
    It’s just one person

    Even ESPN.com is like “yeah, you’re going to suck”
