  1. I have no idea how to go about searching/sorting that nor want to spend the time, but just by a few random name searches of somewhat recent big prospects single season highs. Stanton- 39 in A ball Fielder- 28 AAA (PCL) Wil Myers (when he was considered a big prospect)- 37 Trout- 11 Harper- 17 Longoria- 26 Rizzo- 26 J. Upton- 18 Braun- 22 A. Gordon- 29
  2. I think Stanton kinda has one too.
  3. Turner will be better than Hendricks by 2016.
  4. I'm enjoying the ride and hope we can get at least a Randy Wells type 2ish year stretch from him, but I'm in the latter camp of Kyle's "I don't care about Hendricks 89 MPH FB." Also [expletive] pitchers
  5. You should probably make more bets with this friend
  6. Javy would have 2HR tonight if he puts marginally better swings on the ball in abs 1 and 3
  7. Yeah I'd probably want in order of preference; Markakis, Rasmus, Cruz, Cuddyer, Morse
  8. I'd still move Samardzija for Russell and sign Lester+Scherzer (if we are playing in hypothetical GM world). And since it's hypothetical I'd only sign them to 4 year deals with a really high AAV so if they break they aren't on the books that long.
  9. Too many words. It's a good article, I'd recommend taking the time
  10. If someone wouldn't mind posting or summarizing it would be appreciated. Just post on hitters, no need to hear about the pitchers.
  11. Get ready to see lots of Sexy Rexy in preseason game 4. It would be so Cleveland if both Hoyer/Manziel go down early and Grossman ends up starting like 12+ games for them this year after all this pre-season hoopla
  12. Yeah, Cabrera's could be the worst. That body is going to break down fast -- well, it already is. He is bound for DH'ing soon. And isn't it like a ten-year extension? Just looked it's 8, with 2 team options. But he's signed for the next 9 since it doesn't go into effect until after next year. Basically an A-Rod contract hoping you get a few years in the middle where he's going for milestone HR, Hits, etc and then the last few years are sunk costs. But I agree he's probably DH bound within the next 3 years.
  13. Dombrowski has been fantastic in trades, but man has he been bad in giving the 9 figure FA contracts/extensions. Verlander, Fielder, Cabrera's recent extension (which I also don't think has kicked in yet).
  14. Isn't it something like 5 or 6 for 140ish?
  15. Playing the game the right way, as usual http://m.mlb.com/video/v35287039/stlmia-cishek-fans-adams-to-preserve-the-win/?query=Marlins%2B
  16. They said earlier in the game that they had like a 44-2 K/BB ratio over the weekend against the Rays.
  17. That was like one of those ridiculous Jacque Jones abs from back in the day
  18. Damn, Castro has hit the ball really hard in all 3 abs tonight
  19. How the hell did he get that ball to nearly the warning track in LCF??? He was out in front, swinging with one hand at a ball on the low and away outside corner.
  20. First two pitches to Javy looked like pretty good ones to hit
