    I think that's the first time in my life I've heard of somebody being grossed out by spaghetti. What the horsefeathering horsefeathers?

    Almost as funny was the guy who said he wouldn't want Javy or Soler in any deal. Yeah why would you want a 23 year old with gold caliber defense that is putting up a 2.5ish WAR season in a part time role with gold glove defense. For the same reasons I'm hoping we sell high on him? You can debate their futures (and there's lots of ways they can work out well) but not liking Javy or Soler is far from criminally stupid.

    FIP and xFIP are both up a full point over last year (and are career highs), k/9 down three (and a career low this far), his k/bb ratio is well down from the past couple years and and his contact rate is up. His ERA is down a tick, but his LOB% is up. His babip is down a fair bit, but his LD% is not. If that's not less effective, I'm not sure what is. Obviously his peripherals and FIP numbers are going to be down if he's intentionally pitching to more contact. That is a given and was the starting point for the whole conversation. His ERA (and thus ERA+) are both considerably better than last year. That's literally more effective. I have no idea if it's sustainable and something he can succeed with, but as of now he is giving up fewer runs. The LD% is the only one of those that really makes the case that this is just luck and he isn't one of those weak contact guys, but LD% is a pretty awful stat so it's not going to convince me that he can't on its own.

    Did you guys see that post I snuck into the fast food monstrosities thread about this pancake place in Vegas? I'm not a pancake fan at all and those look incredible.

    You'll find a reason to bitch about anything. Well that's an odd response and not really true. I think mainly because ALL YEAR is 31 innings. His peripherals are not good.

    That's crazy talk, the edge is the best part. yeah i was with him until he mentioned lasagna.

    According to Morosi, we're looking at him too [tweet] [/tweet] Has been pretty good offensively this year and has just graded out abysmally defensively to the point that he's been exactly replacement level.

    i think my biggest maddon pet peeve (and probably only) is how willing he is to let pitchers hit when he has a short leash on them the next inning
  14. David

    See #8: http://www.lifed.com/10-burgers-to-die-for-literally There's all kinds of toppings variations like with any burger, but a burger on a glazed donut is a Luther. are you trolling me? lol i haven't said it isn't. i said i'm not sure that's actually a burger. and if it is, i retract what i said because what i want is a sausage patty.
  21. David
    anyway, if that is a burger, it's not what i want i want sausage egg and bacon and MAYBE cheese surrounded on both ends by krispy creme donut
  22. David
    i'm saying i'm not convinced that's a hamburger patty. i'm not saying it's absolutley not, it's just not what i think that's a picture of. it's got an egg patty on it. it looks like your traditional fast food breakfast sandwich only on a donut instead of a muffin or bagel.
  23. David
    i figured that was a sausage patty considering it has bacon and eggs Nah, it's the Luther Burger: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luther_Burger i'm not sure that's the same sandwich i mean i'm not saying it's not, but i don't think it is
  24. David
    i figured that was a sausage patty considering it has bacon and eggs also WTF lol
