I agree. I’m not optimistic on Cabbage, but I see Whitley becoming one of the best 6th inning guys (a role where inconsistency is expected),...
Javier gets injured and/or stalls out after 4 too often. But Brown is a workhorse. I would double down on your bet. Tell him to just unleash for...
I’ve never been close to this excited. I am not sure yet who will take 6 and/or 5 and/or 4 … but I have a sneaking suspicion that the Astros’ ERA...
Good lord. Mathloom was responding very specifically to someone who said they were disappointed in Jabari’s shooting because he wasn’t as good a...
Exactly. This is what people keep missing (especially simpletons like the person you responded to). Baseball is high variance - much, much more so...
Unfortunately, that part of being American - the part that truly Made America Great - is dead for much of the country. Now grown men care deeply...
I love the guy, but he doesn’t have the lateral shiftiness either - it’s not just handles. He is a straight line freight train - that doesn’t work...
A yes/no poll is just not nuanced enough. You cannot win a title with one franchise player, unless that person is a top 3 player in the NBA. And I...
He has been great the last two games. Of course we would prefer he makes his 3s, but there is more to the game than one type of shot. If you...
There is no free lunch from deferring salary. There are two scenarios from a deferral: 1) the team pays interest on the deferred money at the...
I just assume we are saving the money for Snell, then will trade Urquidy or France for a fourth OF! :)
Or, instead of being as lazy as Dusty, you could look at his production in the field and at the plate instead of his physique. Even his sprint...
Same. But when I see five good posters in a row react to a muted post saying some variant of “you are wrong,” it validates that muting.
Agree completely, except instead of the hook I think he can develop a nice little turnaround midrange like LaMarcus Aldridge or Duncan. Simple and...
Any chance the usage analysis includes throwing all fastballs to Maldonado, who was too lazy to catch curves? :)
Indeed this is the question. Along with “does this mean Bregman is absolutely gone?” I’m optimistic that on the tax for this year it means he...
Over 50% of the time, it happens every time!!!
How do you feel about one extra year for $5M? seriosuly, good call!
That was impressive. I’ll admit I skipped around a bit because I didn’t want to hear every FA. But I was amazed by both of you … and I learned...
Player evaluation is so much easier if your only perspective is shooting percentage. It’s wrong, of course, but easier. Amen will slowly develop...
