  1. Anyone have a decent printable schedule for 2020?
  2. Just what we need, that way he can hit double-play balls even harder and more efficiently instead of the dribblers to 2nd he hits now
  3. [tweet] [/tweet] Oh jesus christ
  4. Don't you put that evil on me
  5. I will be livid if we miss out on what appears to be a very solid option at CF over $2m
  6. Sounds like a great backup C but if the Brewers are counting on him as an everyday starter they're in for some rough defense behind the plate. I'm all for this
  7. Things that makes you go "Hmmm..." for $500, Alex. There are no $500 clues in Jeopardy
  8. [tweet] [/tweet] Looks like the VB's are going to have to pay up for Hader a bit earlier than expected
  9. Going to be interesting to see the teamwide mutiny if Ross gets hired. No one wants to have that horsefeathers anywhere near the team on a regular basis again. #wherehaveyougoneMarinersRevenge I feel like I'm missing something here.
  10. They're gonna win this game by 30 runs aren't they
  11. Log off, Grandfather.
  12. No. That’s the one good thing from this year. PECOTA and those smug pricks were wrong with their garbage projection system. This was a joke. The cubs are not a true 79 win team. And yet,
  13. They’re gonna try to steal 2nd and get caught aren’t they
  14. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how a bitter, bitter cynic is born. I hate everyone and everything and horsefeathers it I'm invading Poland. Craig Kimbrel you are my art school rejection.
  15. DO NOT RUN ON LARGE WILLIAM YOU FOOLS
  16. Brewers broadcast says that was Q's first swing and miss all day
  17. Bat slam, fat chain, 3 buttons undone. Dude just absolutely dripping swag.
  18. Man that is an ugly lineup with no Schwarbs/Rizzo/Contreras.
  19. It's really surpring to me that he's only the 30th best pitcher in terms of fWAR in that stretch, at 1.1. Quintana is 13th at 1.7. Verlander is the one that is most confusing. I get all the home runs, but look at these two lines. Darvish: 62 IP, 11.32 K/9, 0.44 BB/9, 1.89 HR/9, .246 BABIP, 44.2% GB%, 23.6% HR/FB, 3.19/3.85/2.89 1.1 fWAR Verlander: 64.1 IP, 13.4 K/93, 1.12 BB/9, 1.40 HR/9, .268 BABIP, 32.9% GB%, 14.9% HR/FB, 2.38/2.71/2.76, 2.3 fWAR Verlander is better, but over twice as good? It's because fangraphs uses absolute dongs to weight FIP in their WAR calculation, and the weight is (13 * dong). So over that span Yu has 3 more dongs allowed than Verlander (13 vs 10), which gets 'disproportionately' weighted by 13, jacking up Yu's FIP to 3.85 compared to Verlanders 2.71
