  1. And you insult posters because you think it makes you cool. We all got a part to play.
  2. I wonder what it's like to have a GM with as much brainpower as Epstein but also a shred of ambition.
  3. If Olt can even put up a 2-WAR season, then it moves ahead of the Wood trade as Epstein's best to date.
  4. In the big leagues, he should change his number throughout the year to match up to his HR total. And everyone else on the team should wear numbers about 60 to make sure he can be accommodated.
  5. I'm reading that ESPN The Magazine article about Epstein and my hope boner is throbbing. I want this [expletive] to work soooo badly. Edit: aaannd it's gone
  6. I hate our lineup against lefties a little bit less. It should flirt with adequacy in games like this. I like our chances.
  7. All I could think watching him today was "if we have seven pitchers better than him in the bullpen, we will be amazing." Command could be a little better, but stuff is legit and he can throw strikes.
  8. He's not going to be a SS so I don't even care.
  9. Left some pitches up but the stuff was so nasty he could get away with it. If we have seven relievers better than him, we're in good shape.
  10. For a moment it looked in doubt whether he would make it first to third on a double.
  11. This inning is a fun reminder of what next year will be like.
  12. I figure we get one or two more years of "man we're so awesome for eliminating PEDs" before they start trying to figure out ways to boost offense.
  13. Thought the same thing. Very smooth.
  14. This is the first time I've really gotten a look at Hammel. The fastball is just a bit too straight, but the slider has more bite than I would have guessed.
  15. Dallas Beeler, who made our 40-man roster, needs this to make our top-40 prospects.
  16. Last year I said we were at least as good as them and maybe better.
  17. Never mind. Cabrera DFA'd, Schlitter back in. Who did Blake Parker tick off?
  18. I assume it was because the dominant team in the 1990s was the Braves, and we were trying to copy them. Similar to how we're trying to duplicate the Red Sox' success now.
  19. I feel like we match up well with the Pirates. Le's get off to a hot start and ride the momentum.
  20. He has 9 walks in 53 PAs, they said earlier.
  21. He's frantically rewriting his $/WAR formulas to prove that it was right all along.
  22. Please tell me Kyle's little picture avatar thing is his face. Gary Cole /sex with/ Rahm Emanuel. That's Kevin Orie, you uncultured swine.
  23. Yeah. I don't think their fans realize how long it's gonna take to turn that turd sandwich around, prospects or no prospects.
  24. They decided today he's getting a day off and will play tomorrow.
  25. I'm dying to make a post about how awesome it is that this team won 82 games and 20 of those 25 players had surprisingly good years and apparently it all works.
