  1. Lee has a 75 to 70(roughly) advantage over Pujols in VORP as well. Jones is around 61.
  2. I doubt that very much. Yep, Giles-Kent-Castillo-Walker is my order of preference, based on ability alone.
  3. Very cool. Is it going to be updated to include info on all the other teams as well? Some other teams already have information inputted, but that's the goal.
  4. same place my Mizzou Tigers are :-\ So I think the only hope we have of having anything worthwhile going on this year is for Nebraska to be undefeated coming into their trip to Mizzou. That and beating Kansas.
  5. I actually think STL may go down first round, just because they're the only team in a situation where they are the clear favorite to win their series. That's what happens in the playoffs.
  6. Padres win it all, you heard it here first.
  7. That is a good point. What will he be up to next year? Close to 2 million? Patterson made 2.8 million this year. My guess is that he'd get a pay cut next year to about 2.5, or a similar salary. If the Cubs are desparate to get rid of him though, I think he'll be gone before that decision has to be made.
  8. Hey, I'm in that picture! And again MSU finds itself way behind a team they beat in the polls.
  9. Macias is a free agent, he's out of arbitration eligibility.
  10. I'd say the 6 game gap between us and Cincy, plus the talent level on the two teams makes us better than them. So you're admitting they aren't as good as Milwaukee? I'm not sure. They lost against them and won fewer games total, but I'm not sure if things would stay the same if they played the season over again(in other words, things out of either team's control may have played a part). I am pretty sure that we'd still fare better than the Reds if we did it all over again.
  11. Another take on Crain from a little earlier in the year. Link
  12. Have you seen Huff's numbers this year? They're pretty terrible for a corner OF.
  13. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/stats?playerId=4133 How is BJ Ryan a "stud closer" and Ryan Dempster is merely a "set-up" guy? The numbers suggest BJ Ryan is no more the 'stud closer', then Ryan Dempster. WHIP Dempster: 1.25 Ryan: 1.12 K/9 Dempster: 8.17 Ryan: 12.98 K/BB Dempster: 1.96 Ryan: 4.17
  14. Dempster really will get 5 million next year, it's just that 1 mil of that is the signing bonus. I can't imagine them prorating it considering the structure is set up to be 5/5/5.5 if he gets it up front.
  15. Why is Bob Davie doing a Notre Dame game? Brady Quinn a 1st rounder right now?
  16. At 28 yrs old, I am. It's oene thing to offer a 36/37 yr old, like Remmy, a 3 yr deal, it's another to offer a 28 yr old, a 3 yr deal. I am pretty sure (there is no guarantee in baseball, mind you) the Cubs won't regret giving Demp the deal. Regardless of age or injury history, relievers are just too unpredictable the majority of the time to justify a long term contract, especially for the amount of money that Dempster is getting. Dempster is far from lights out, he's probably not even in the top 30 of relievers in WHIP. Those walks are going to catch up to him, possibly in Alfonseca fashion.
  17. Nebraska wins in 2OT, ISU with a legitmate beef on a non-Pass Interference call on 4th down.
  18. Hahahaha, Nebraska's QB turns the wrong way on a handoff(or the RB went the wrong way) and fumbles the ball away on the scramble. This is in a tie game where Nebraska was inside the red zone with 1:30 left in the game.
  19. I'd say the 6 game gap between us and Cincy, plus the talent level on the two teams makes us better than them.
  20. Neb/Iowa St. needs to finish so they can take us to USC/ASU. One of these two better score.
  21. Poor Tyrone Prothro. Plays a heck of a game, mishandles a TD pass and now is getting taken off in a stretcher, I think it's his ankle/leg.
  22. :shock: Meant UCLA. Not much confidence in ND or Cal then. Wow, Florida's making a game of it. 31-24 and they're about to get the ball back. Not really, it's still 31-3.
