It’s hard to imagine we see the regular lineup all three games what with the grind of some guys having played as many as 5 games in the last 11 or...
I mean I can't imagine a world where he hits 139 and isn't significantly worse at scoring runs. I get BA is a garbage stat most of the time, but...
I suspect that is correct. I wasn't suggesting otherwise. I was asking if people believe there is a bridge too far for him as a hitter to lose...
Probably. But what I’m asking is what if he has a 400 OPS at the all star break? I have been bullish on this season. I predicted 98 wins. I...
At what point in time do we need to move on from Maldonado as unplayable on offense? I know catcher is a defense first position, but will we...
Added that of course- while you were typing. last year he had no thump and something like a sub 700 OPS against lefties. Siri or Chaz could do...
When meyers gets back Uncle Mike should basically be a platoon guy. If Siri is K’ing less than 25% of the time he should have the other end of...
You know what they don’t have? many below average starters. That’s big over 162.
Let’s make this easy in the 9th. The Astros rotation has been sold short by many experts and the projections systems imo.
I don't think it's about trying. I don't think he has the ability to play high level winning defense.
So, the 76ers got the best possible path to a title they could hope for. There are 5 legit contenders in the East. Top 3 are probably Mil.,...
That’s fine. Who you going to hit 3rd? either way I’m fine wherever Altuve hits as long as it’s top 5
Agreed speed isn’t paramount. But if it’s close (and I believe it is) then speed is a tie breaker. I wouldn’t hate Bregman 1st and Altuve 3rd but...
Bregman is incredibly slow. He’s fine at the 3 and Altuve leadoff. The Tucker Brantley thing is stupid. Goodrum hitting 3rd is stupid. Dusty is a...
I’d love to know how many starts in each year by the best 5 guys. mid you get 140 starts from your front line guys and use 6 pitchers to cover the...
Ha. Those lineups are pretty gross too. What is funny is that we won all 3 games (which was my point about baseball being baseball). I think I’d...
Possible trade deadline needs (most likely to least likely) TOR Bullpen piece Corner OF Bat SS 1b/dh Type I know they don’t want to play Tucker at...
No- Yuli is also out right now. If he was here it would be 4 above average hitters and if Carlos was here it would be 5 as a minimum. Meyers is...
No ish has b****ed about the Odo signing more than me, but he is what he is- an average pitcher. Could we do better (and for less money?) Sure- I...
In years past it would not have been possible to fill out a lineup with only 3 demonstrated above average hitters, yet here we are.
