  1. i'm no doctor, but i'm not sure why the swelling would need to go down for an mri. for surgery,yes, that would make sense.
  2. It's too bad Almora isn't at least at a point where he could be a passable MLB hitter. We could go straight up silly good OF defense right now if he could, with Fowler and Heyward in the corners.
  3. But they don't let those same idiots on other shows. They absolutely screen differently on B&B. I disagree completely. Other than the ones who are basically B&B characters at this point, like Mike in Milwaukee. B&B just engage them and berate them. The other ones (M&H, LoHo) just kinda humor them and politely mock. And Grobstein is one of them, so he embraces them. EDIT - Forgot about Spiegel and Goff...it's weird, I barely even notice when they take callers.
  4. offensive ceiling adjusted for positional value or just purely blind "which of these guys can put up the highest wOBA?"
  5. I'm lower on him than most, but I think you could make a case for 8th. He is definitely behind Rizzo, Bryant, and Heyward. Probably Russell and Zobrist. And I'm not 100% in 2016 he is better than Fowler or Montrro. Montero? No way. i don't think it's out of the realm of sane thoughts to consider that montero might have a more valuable season than schwarber might've. I wouldn't consider it expected, but I don't think there's a huge gap between, say, an expectation level schwarber season and a good montero year.
  6. i really don't think they need to screen for those people. people in general (and sports fans in general) are already stupid. the people that actually call into those shows are self selecting for stupid.
  7. Ah so my orthopedic surgeon wasn't trying to fix my humerus that snapped in half then. Is my arm gonna spontaneously combust someday since I'm not a pro athlete?
  8. At this point I think a severe sprain and out for a month is probably the best case scenario. i think you guys are nuts. best case scenario is he sees the field this season.
  9. all i said was that i thought this was an actual bad thing for the team and i was surprised no one else thought it mattered beyond making the team less fun. i didn't start a new fatalism thread and scream about 3-159. that was the bit. this is how i honestly feel, and i don't think it's an outlandish opinion. i don't really think the division is close enough to worry about any peril there. especially since schwarber was probably like our 5th best regular and, while the replacements aren't great (or him), he's not being replaced by like jason dubois or bobby scales or something either.
  10. [tweet] [/tweet] omg why is he wearing a batman costume to breakfast?! i dont know, but it's adorable. this kinda reminds me of goony's story about his daughter and her rainboots
  11. maybe just move part of it? the crazies are entertaining. i wanna get felix leiter up in here too.
  12. yeah. when medicine and doctors actually permanently/long-term repair or cure an ailment, i guess it's on accident. they want us all constantly undergoing treatment.
  13. well he just upped the ante again.
  14. i've heard this bit before. josh hancock used to say he drove really well on mcallan 25. no swerving and excellent reflexes.
  15. almora on pace to walk every game
  16. i figure there's enough in Iowa to get a deal done for a good starter anyway. especially/hopefully when some of our prospects add even more their value with a few good months of play.
  17. yeah none of that generic crap. brand name anesthesia. same goes for all the gauze and stitches and stuff. don't want him to get infected or for it to be a shoddy repair.
  18. are you an anti vaxxer too? screw those crazy doctors and science and stuff. what do they know?
  19. oh good lord
  20. we'll probably score ten runs again tonight but I JUST DONT CARE ANYMORE :(
  21. i always thought tree was doing a bit when he'd make those panicky alarmist threads over the last few years when we sucked or weren't yet established to be ridiculously awesome
  22. yeah i'm just hoping that either baez or soler can figure it out to fill the style and fun void. but even they won't walk up to thuggish ruggish bone.
