  1. Eh, I doubt it. It's his resume that has "earned" him that. maybe - probably some of each
  2. Man, this Fox team is really going big time to defend Lackey's "fiery" behavior. I'm quite sure if Lackey were named, say, Rodriguez, that the commentary would be a little different.
  3. Fox announcer: 'Speaking Spanish is more valuable than "Cybermetrics"' Ugh
  4. Unless you are in blackout zone you can watch on the Fox sports app Oh, I've got it on TV, but I miss Len & JD.
  5. Wait...is Fox the only option here?
  6. i'd like to see a list like this that goes by games played instead Yeah, because I still prefer this start to a major league career: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=10155&position=OF. Saying it as "first two years" eliminates everyone who got a mid- to late-year callup to begin their careers. Still damned impressive, though.
  7. It's in question what even counts as stuff, that solely seems to mean velocity from my understanding of your opinions, when you think Jen Ho Tseng is clearly better. Not to mention you greatly exaggerate Kellogg's stuff to fit your narrative in the first place. He never said Tseng's stuff was better (that I recall). He brought up Tseng as someone who did better than Kellogg at the same level (at a much younger age) as reason to prefer him as a prospect.
  8. hmm...which of the July 2 guys should be added?
  9. I need to take the time this weekend to update the prospect ranking page. I was going to wait until the minor league seasons were completely over, but it might as well be done now. Can we start making a list of who needs to come off the list and who needs to get added? Players to come off: Contreras Almora Vogelbach Torres McKinney Edwards Players to add: Hatch Miller Clark Mekkes Manuel Rondon That was off the top of my head, so please add to the list.
  10. I think Schmidt might just be the new comp. And I'm not even kidding.
  11. It was two years ago that we were historically bad against the run, right?
  12. Jesus, just get a calzone
  13. we'll never know, but so far, that move has netted them zero playoff series wins I thought it was dumb to shut him down completely like they did, as opposed to moving him to the bullpen a month before the shutdown to limit his innings (and then having him in the bullpen for the playoffs) or limiting his innings earlier in the season so that he would be available in October. Or simply skipping some starts in June/July/August. Limiting his workload was the right call, just seems they could have planned it better. Completely shutting down your best pitcher going into the playoffs in hopes that he might be available if you happen to make the playoffs again in the future seems like a move that's very rarely ever going to pan out in your favor. This. See what Toronto is doing to manage Aaron Sanchez this year as a good example of what I'd have done with Strasburg that year.
  14. Bailey Clark is in Durham completing his fall semester at Duke. Semester started in late August.Welcome to the forum!
  15. not quite as accurate as I thought at first, but still damned good.
  16. That was shockingly accurate considering how he had to throw that.
  17. Strasburg had to come out of his start after 2.1 innings after coming off the DL.
  18. Yep - Washington just got less scary.
  19. lol - hitting the booze early on a Friday? I'm jealous. 3 out of 4 aint too bad. Still surprised Candyman wasn't called up. If I had guessed Tim F over adding a Lefty arm in the pen for sept then I could see you thinking I was boozing. Apparently Theo was and wanted to win a bet about calling up Tim to get another player with a Z on the roster. I was joking about all those underlined names being spelled incorrectly.
  20. Did Wisconsin really go from unranked to #10 because of a home victory over an overrated SEC team?
