  1. What did I do? I've been jocking these guys as hard as anyone.
  2. That's not a bad team, but the Tivo/Morin/Danault/Hartman class had better be just as good as the Saad/Smith/Leddy class if you want to continue to be a top-3 team.
  3. It's all coming together http://static2.fjcdn.com/thumbnails/comments/my+plan+is+coming+together+perfectly+with+the+_f9e59ffbe01bff51568de16b7ab618f0.gif
  4. knock yourself out Early look at next offseason for the Bulls: http://nbcoutofbounds.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/charliebrownfootball.jpg?w=200&h=170&crop=1
  5. So is it OK if I laugh in this thread when the Bulls get nothing? Honest question.
  6. The Blackhawks have two choices: 1) Hit on a *lot* of prospects in the upcoming seasons 2) Enjoy this as their last season as an elite team for awhile I think they have a shot to do No. 1, of course, but ick.
  7. I feel like he's asking Kyle to stalk him. I don't think I've ever messaged a player besides maybe taunting Ian Stewart once or twice.
  8. Who cares about need? We already white-flagged the season.
  9. You know what guys? This is my game thread and as a connoisseur of jokes that only I find funny being repeated to the point of everyone else's annoyance, I'm gonna allow it. Continue, coldsteel
  10. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/feeding.gif
  11. He tells them his name, and when they start to respond he just laughs and says "it doesn't matter" before turning and walking away.
  12. He has separate gloves for batting and baserunning, but he couldn't be bothered to have a glove for this.
  13. Alright guys, welcome to my game thread. We haven't won in one of my game threads yet this year, and we're terrible right now, but nonetheless I have a good feeling about this. Hot takes incoming: Pitching for the Cubs is Dallas Beeler, who sucks but is in the process of doing that annoying thing where some fringe-average AAA guy has a not-terrible callup and suddenly half the fanbase is on his jock. Alfredo Simon goes for the Reds, and here we have found the evil wizard who is stealing all of Edwin Jackson's peripheral>ERA conversion mojo. 5.49 K/9, 2.13 BB/9, 1.06 HR/9, 8.5% swinging strikes, 48% ground balls ... all pretty bad and boring and yet ... 2.48 ERA. He has been doing this for three years totalling 250 innings, in which he has accrued 1.0 fWAR but 4.1 bWAR. I'm sure he'll do it again to the Cubs. The whole Reds team is a collection of crummy players playing over their heads. The only good players on the Reds are Joey Votto and Aroldis Chapman, and Votto is slipping fast. Everyone else is some variation of stupid and lucky. The only good thing about their existence is that they are hanging around in mediocrity getting their fanbase's hopes up to be crushed by the Brewers and Pirates and Cardinals. Arismendy Alcantara is being called up for this game for the Cubs, for a two-day callup while Darwin Barney is on paternity leave, which is apparently a thing that can happen. This seems like good news, but it is not, for two reasons: 1) We all know he's going to ride the bench for those two days and it's going to drive us mad. 2) He's BABIPing about like .600 in AAA and the transition to MLB is going to destroy him so he better be really good defensively. Alright, here we go. Go Cobs. One more year of this crap before we own for a decade. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpzbojfGTU1qjvn2d.gif
  14. He's going to ride the bench and the rage will be glorious.
  15. Yeah I really am gonna hate him for a long, long time. I would hope that he blows out his knees but the Reds are gonna be a middling team forever so no need to hope he gives them better draft position.
  16. Well, see, Mike Olt is superterrible and the other two are just regular bad.
  17. I wish Bryant didn't strike out so much. It makes me nervous.
  18. And I'm out. I got to the point where one of their fans started lecturing me on how terrible it is to use fWAR to analyze pitching and nope, have fun guys. Mets fans are in a kinda fun bit of denial where they adore the fact that all their assets are tied in pitching even while Harvey blows out his arm and Syndergaard gets punked in AAA.
  19. In the 2010 lists, our No. 7 prospect was Logan Watkins, a 21st round pick coming off a .780 OPS in Boise made up entirely of BABIP.
