  1. A little too much work needed, but I'll take it.
  2. Wow bold choice....the 5 infielders/no catcher alignment hasn’t been attempted since the 1926 Boston Braves. Joe's still got two months of drinking to go. It's gonna get weird.
  3. When KB comes back and tries to talk to Javy: http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/2013/09/I-dont-know-who-you-are.gif
  4. Nobody was comparing them defensively, you dork. I know. I was just pointing it out because it's cool as hell.
  5. I don't think anyone's worried about pressure; I just think it's funny in a, "y'know, that apple would be a really great apple if it was actually an orange," sort of way. Yeah, it's a strange comparison because of how different they are. I think Joe (maybe?) mostly means he reminds him of Manny because of his bat speed or how the ball jumps off his bat or something -- just something about him and how he plays or swings or hits the ball or whatever. But that also doesn't fall in with the "laying off sliders" part, because that wouldn't even matter in such a comparison. So I don't know. I've always been confused by it.
  6. By both bWAR and fWAR, Javy is on pace to have what would be a better season than all but one of Manny's seasons.
  7. Eh, Bote's in there. No complaints.
  8. That’s awesome to hear, Sammys Boombox. I’m really happy for you.
  9. Enough to still be the best offense in baseball when excluding pitchers? It's absurd how much you guys complain about the lack of home runs and try to diminish the quality ABs our batsmen bring to the field every day. This offense is awesome and you all should stfu about it.
  10. Next step: "Alright, Yu, it's the fifth inning..."
  11. Go find some random lefty reliever on waivers. horsefeathers.
  12. Maybe don't pitch the guy with a near-6 FIP in a 1-run game in the 9th, Joe.
  13. Nice camerawork. Guy must have fallen asleep from all the groundball foul-offs.
  14. I'm way more fine with this than all the tortured takes about why the rotation isn't actually bad. To be fair, most of my takes have been about why we can win with bad starting pitching in the playoffs. And these are the reasons why. I've said as much multiple times in the past. I do think the rotation can get better, too. But I really don't care much if they just suck all year.
