Buckeye run defense looks atrocious
-
Knew that was coming
-
Most of us don’t, but a quick search will show you some embarrassing posts with Trout, Harper and Machado trade proposals centered around Almora, Happ, etc. Made by known lunatics and randos. I don’t have an up to date spreadsheet on the known lunatics

You have an incredible gift for incorrect sanctimony, it is your superpower Seriously, we aren't putting those guys in deals for stars... Is there a single player in the cardinals org good enough to headline a deal for KB? Most of us don’t, but a quick search will show you some embarrassing posts with Trout, Harper and Machado trade proposals centered around Almora, Happ, etc.

That's funny, but not any dumber/crazier than every trade proposed on this board that starts with "We can offer some package of Almora, Caratni and Maples for _________"
-
Is "standing around on defense" the new market inefficiency?
-
-
Maybe keep a “Tier A” of 5-8 players that everyone is limited to just one of, and then fill out the rest of the team (so you can’t have Stanton, Judge and Trout as your outfield)
-
Can we please take Auburn out of the Top 25 now?
-
Hey, that’s my gimmick
-
I picture the director talking to the real Billy Beane and saying “who should play you in this movie?” And Beane is like “Brad Pitt, lol” and the director says “DONE!!”
-
If we’re just wanting to mix things up, how about scrapping the “tiers” of players and changing it so everyone has to have a complete “team” of fielders? Three outfielders plus the five infielders and a DH. Then, when you make a transaction, it has to be for the same position. If Anthony Rizzo gets hurt, you can only replace him with another first baseman. The DH slot could have any position (like a flex position in fantasy football).

Let’s just all agree that MLB schedule makers are bad
-
are you suggesting he should be prevented from working because he's suing the organization that employs him for discrimination? I’m suggesting that he sucks for multiple reasons and shouldn’t be allowed to umpire important games ever
-
Two by two, we’re marching door to door Cuz God loves Mormons and he wants some more...
-
Why is MLB assigning Hernandez to postseason games when a) he is annually voted as one of the worst umpires in the league and b) has an active lawsuit against MLB for racial discrimination?
-
It’s the curse of Chief Wahoo. The faster they eliminate that logo from history, the better they’ll be. The fact that the fans are clinging to a symbol that is not only racist, but also associated with decades of misery and disappointment is something I’ll never understand -
George Springer is the new Mr October.
-
All those teams will complain about having to have more road games in the second half
-
sounds sustainable
-
The only way the Angels trade him is if they are comfortable knowing they will never get equal value back.
-
The Scott Frost and Chip Kelly eras are starting with a bang

Fix your damn avatars and sig pics

and he'll never win anything

one of said seasons was 4.8 war in 111 games and the other two were 3.0 in 147 games, and 3.5 in 159 games (where Fangraphs HATED his defense). He had his one 9.3 fWAR season, and hasn't been above 5 in any other season. He's a fun player who I would like to have, but he hasn't lived up to the hype. Any debate of Harper vs. Trout ended long ago
