  1. Hicks is done...2 year deal
  2. Guess I missed this thread the first time around, but this, if at all.
  3. I really don't either. Especially if the draft is solid. I think we could have two above average units next year if things fall right. And two above average units = a pretty good team. This defense still needs some help. And you don't want to rely only on the draft for additional D resources. Still really want Hicks, a S, and maybe another minor DL piece in FA. Freeman deal is a steal though. For Fox's shortcomings I think we have a place guys want to come play for now. Still working on Hicks, so it's not like that's off the table. I wish we were hearing of at least kicking the tires on Weddle...wonder what he's gonna cost. At least we have one good safety now, though.
  4. that's a shame if only because of the labor day friday dongfest of 2015 and the bryant scoreboard dong/montero GS game
  5. primarily this game http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/ARI/ARI201505220.shtml the nick ahmed game and this i guess too http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.cgi?id=ahmedni01&year=2015&t=b#oppon
  6. [tweet] [/tweet] this would be so cardinals and damnit this guy is going to piss us off all over again
  7. Fowler...if only I had made a prediction about him... Yes your mention of him would be why I made that post
  8. does the same guy run it that runs cespedes family bbq?

  10. for anyone who missed those [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. holy horsefeathers that's twice now this creeper charley steiner has called almora "alberto"
  12. ho-hum another double for contreras
  13. ok seriously just blast ross into the sun, get contreras on this team and make miggy the backup
  14. what a throw that was by Willson to nab Micah Johnson...just perfectly placed.
  15. oh by the way, yeah, i forgot that if fowler's first half this year resembles his second half last year, he'd be in the conversation too. yeah, we have a lot of guys capable of making the all star team. shockingly.
  16. even that wouldn't shock me...especially if he has a nasty W-L record, which he easily could
  17. zorilla with a leadoff double that almost reached the fence
  18. i totally forgot that marmol wasn't even our closer in 08...dude was just that good.
  19. this is not bold. we had 33% more in 2008. 10 all stars.. that's bold. Ok Mr. Fantasy Fact-checker. What 10 are you putting in? Because when you start looking at who guy #6 would be, it is a bit of a stretch. If it's not more than a bit of a stretch, it's not all that bold...and if the 08 team can get 8, our bold scenario needs to be at least that. If you want me to answer this seriously, here are the guys who should be expected to be all stars without needing things to fall their way Rizzo, Bryant, Heyward, Arrieta These guys have shown an ability to play at that level before and somewhat recently or can be projected to do so at some point Zobrist, Russell, Schwarber, Montero (iffy, sure, but this isn't a serious topic), Lester, Lackey Then you can throw in a wild card like Rondon, since Marmol was one of ours in 08 and it seems like most of the super dominant pen guys are in the AL So I guess there's my BOLD prediction. Ten of those 11 guys (or maybe some others come out of nowhere to get sprinkled in...like maybe Soler) Not that I really think that's gonna happen. Realities of the roster construction probably dictate that 8 is the extreme high end...I think we can get there if we're as good as we should be.
  20. this is not bold. we had 33% more in 2008. 10 all stars.. that's bold. Ok Mr. Fantasy Fact-checker. What 10 are you putting in? Because when you start looking at who guy #6 would be, it is a bit of a stretch. If it's not a bit of a stretch, it's not bold

  22. Pablo Ozuna calling him out out of nowhere
