  1. Definitely feel the same way and thought the product was slipping last year as well. On some podcast I listen to, I forget which one, the guys were theorizing the poor play has to do with some of the new rule changes of players/teams not being able to practice/be contacted as much in the offseason as they used to and the salary cap structure changing so more teams are keeping rookies/UDFAs/etc instead of more veterans.
  2. THIS IS NOT A TIME TO BE RATIONAL, DAVID
  3. I hope he's holding some bullets for the playoffs
  4. Jake Hammel, please come back God Mode
  5. He started at 3B in the WC game last year. That was with a healthy Gorgie and what we know about Javy as a player was basically the same (Russell had the hamstring injury and Javy had to start at SS). But still, Joe seems to like him at 3B
  6. I think there's a chance with Joe's usage lately he's thinking of a seal start at 3B in the playoffs. Which is such a inefficient use of resources. That requires La Stella being a better option than both Baez and Soler, which strikes me as pretty unlikely given how well Soler has swung the bat and how great Javy is defensively. I hope u are right #NeverTommy
  7. Yes with Edwards or Horse teeth ready to come in at a moments notice? It would make sense with the crazy splits.
  8. He needs at bats to see if he can be a postseason pinch hitter and that's a way to get him those at bats without the mockery of putting him in the outfield or something. He's not going to start any meaningful games or fill in anywhere but 2B in case of injury. I think there's a chance with Joe's usage lately he's thinking of a seal start at 3B in the playoffs. Which is such a inefficient use of resources.
  9. i'm dying to know who the other 5 are http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=3b&stats=fld&lg=all&qual=150&type=1&season=2016&month=0&season1=2016&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=24,a Wallace, Villar, Valencia, Peralta, Wright (!) So he's only better than a human bowling ball (Wallace), a guy with a broken spine (Wright), another indescript white player (Valencia), a 40+ year PED user (Peralta) and Villar who's Starlin Castro at defense. Cool
  10. Is La Stella the worst defensive 3B in baseball who has played a decent amount of innings there?
  11. Need 2, 1 for RB 2 and 1 for Flex, .5 point PPR league Arian Foster @ NE Spencer Ware @ HOU Rashad Jennings vs NO Jarvis Landry @NE Michael Crabtree vs ATL Leaning Ware (Charles is out again) and Jennings
  12. I hope La Stella is sitting in the corner having no fun and pouting by himself
  13. Georgie better be healthy for the playoffs. He needs to be starting over Javy
  14. Where the hell was Chris Carter going there? Have an inning big fella
  15. Joe must think clutch is a thing sending Addison up here. I don't have a problem with it.
  16. Yep. Get him on the playoff roster! I mean I hope we aren't in a spot where he has to hit in a high leverage spot in the playoffs but hearing the Stone Cold glass shatter as he walks up to the plate will make it a memorable moment
  17. Damn thought that was getting to the wall
  18. Coghlan switching his shitty walk up song for wrestling intros has exponentially increased my favorability of him
  19. Almora's TOOTBLAN's per time on base is rather impressive
