  1. Regardless of Soler (or Baez) can we all go back to LLF implying that "a young cost effective Soriano" is something not insanely valuable that you would do everything in your power to have around and/or keep?
  2. #keepthemall
  3. Barely. And his D and injuries likely will preclude him from becoming anything more than an average starter. But if he plays well the rest of the season, he's a damn good trade piece, considering he's not even a true starter for us. So he's a young, cost effective, Alfonso Soriano. If we could finagle a young SP out of that (Rays, Indians, I'm looking in your direction,) I'd be all about it. I don't know what is worst about this post, but I'll start with IF he were a young cost effective Alfonso Soriano, this is something you'd be happy to move? (particularly for a horsefeathering pitcher?)

  6. The numbers are pretty good. I'm going off B-R for WAR because Fangraphs is inexplicably down (NL ranks) BA: 19th OBP: 5th SLG: 2nd OPS: 2nd HR: 7th RBI: 3rd 2B: 1st BB: 6th WAR: 2nd (4.7 behind KB's 5.5) The only major issues are that I think defensive WAR is underrated him (just IMO from watching him every day), and the fact that he has a teammate who is also a major MVP candidate. UZR has him as the 5th best fielding 1B http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=1b&stats=fld&lg=all&qual=y&type=1&season=2016&month=0&season1=2016&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=24,d What you're seeing in defensive WAR is the positional adjustment, but among 1B he's highly rated.
  7. stupid grote had me thinking that'd be in play run(s) and possibly even a dong
  8. ugh, joe smith is still on the roster?
  9. dong runs are obviously best, although non-hit runs are fun/funny when they result in walk off wins
  10. What content do you need to use a fake email address to access? Right now my fake email is filled with emails from Dreamtown and a bunch of car salespeople asking if I'm still shopping for a car.
  11. Apparently, Big Z is back at Wrigley. Had a picture with one of my friends pop up on my FB feed.
  12. If you don't have a separate email account for junk like this, you're doing the internet wrong. Reminder: it's 2016. Uh, so is the email listserv a problem for you or not?
  13. It's still happenstance based (much like RBI) and the player shouldn't get extra or reduced credit for happenstance.
  14. lmao i thought they didn't make posts like this anymore
  15. how the hell did you have all those dudes' pictures on hand to make that i think the only one of those pics i've seen before is roast's...maybe vance.
  16. I get that you liked Dawson and all, but Sammy is easily objectively better. You've made a wrong and bad vote and you should feel wrong and bad about it.
  17. Yikes. Pretty sure like 90% of white MLBers agree with him
  18. Yeah he tends to
  19. ha, his fastball still gets up to 95 on occasion, huh? i had forgotten he used to approach triple digits.
  20. yeah, papelbon coming here demanding to be the closer is pretty hilariously far fetched, all things considered
  21. Yikes. Someone should probably get fired for that. That also couldn't have been unintentional. What are the odds?
  22. well we have this to look forward to [tweet] [/tweet]
