  1. no. yes. he's got a cannon for an arm, the ball was hit pretty sharply, and he was playing shallow. nothing about that says there's a decent shot at scoring. some of you guys are hilariously results oriented. no horsefeathering way do i want a guy on 2nd being held on a 2 out basehit so that you rely on albert almora to get a hit. i would've been screaming at my tv had he stopped him.
  2. i hope len doesn't actually believe dusty's cop out story
  3. no local affiliate that picks up these wpwr games in your area?
  4. wait, can this really be real?? [tweet] [/tweet]
  5. you'll be happy to know that javy has a .436 OBP vs lefties and a 10% walk rate
  6. Also this http://www.fangraphs.com/graphs.aspx?playerid=14221&legend=1&statArr=50&split=base&time=game&ymin=&ymax=&start=2016&end=2016&rtype=single&gt1=15

  9. def weird considering zobrist's splits this year are nearly even
  10. didn't even realize what this was at first [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. Peon: "Mr Cashman, Andrew Marchand just let it leak that we'd take Vogelbach for Miller". Cashman: "Damn it, leak some rumors about a ridiculously high price so we can get some of our leverage back. Maybe toss another team in there. But use a couple of different media people would ya, we don't want this to look obvious." cashman's peons have no idea who the horsefeathers dave kaplan is tho
  12. loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
  13. [/spoil] It's hilarious. Cubs fans rightly think its ridiculous to trade a guy with several years of cheap control who would be on pace for 44 HR over 162 games as a rookie for a 31 yo reliever with 1.5 years left who can impact a season for 80 innings a year. Yankees fans for some reason think it's ridiculous because...why? Because he tore his ACL? If he doesn't tear his ACL there wouldn't even be a discussion because no one would even think to throw out a Schwarber for Miller trade. Now its still extremely ridiculous but because of the supposed risk of coming back from the injury, it is on the very fringes of a suggestible discussion (while still being insanely ridiculous). Basically because everyone saw him fall on his fat belly on national TV in the playoffs and now the whole world is convinced he's the worst outfielder ever to stand in a major league outfield and is completely useless to the Cubs.
  14. You don't have to tell me that for me to believe he's going nowhere anyway (hell, even the media has reported that he was told that, I believe). At least, not in anything that has been discussed.
  15. Imagine if your career required running and jumping heavily. Pretty much everything I know about it is my brother dealing with it; as much as I'm a slob he's always been in fantastic shape and plays multiple sports, but ever since this developed this he would get sidelined all the time because of the pain. He tried a lot of the short term therapies; which helped alleviate it a lot in his everyday life, but he couldn't play either for very long or not at all a LOT until he got the surgery, and even that combined with the other therapies took a good 6 months+ to deal with it. That much time off at a minimum for a professional athlete is presumably why Noah hasn't done it. This season would seemingly have been a good opportunity for him to have tried addressing it that way.
  16. i had a magic starter half zip coat but i never considered myself a fan. i just liked the colors. also had an indians pullover and i did like those indians teams a lot.
  17. nope, nope, nope. i listed a bunch of guys before who i'd easily trade schwarber for. not one of them was a yankee, IIRC.
