They are an all time great team. They have two of the top 5 players in the league and something like the 20th and 25th best player on top of that,...
Voted B. Got Paul back. I'm assuming that we sign Capella to something like a 4/60, which will be nice for the 2019 when Anderson is an expiring....
Yeah the rest of that roster around lebron looks like hammered dogshit, and I don’t see any particularly plausible way KL works his way there...
He was first. Being first is a huge advantage. He deserves all sorts of credit for that. I think the younger guys that came behind him are smarter...
It’s not just that- you also don’t play the Orioles, Royals or Rangers in the playoffs. The rockets and warriors just went seven games throwing...
It’s really hard for this team to slump too badly with the general quality of all 5 starters. The offense also looks fresno-ish and cold George...
In my opinion it’s stuff. That’s not to say even the best of the best don’t get cracked from time to time- but everyone is in high alert, great...
Serious question here, not disparaging the guys in any way, but any of them you really trust, with the game on the line, to close out a 1 or two...
Cool. That’s not what you said though. I’m out on this discussion. I can tell you the FO will f tame the decision the way I said it though. I...
I was responding to what you said which was utter nonsense. You said if keuchel isn’t clearly one of the best 4 starters he shouldn’t pitch....
My thought is yes, he does. You, AJ, Jeff etc might differ, but that's the proper way to ask the question: 1) Does LMJ being available to pitch...
Game theory says this is nonsense If Keuchel and LMJ were tied in quality of starter then the 4th starter should be whoever is most ill suited...
YMMV but I don't trust McHugh or Peacock with a playoff game on the line against the elite of the elite. I want LMJ if at all possible. I want...
It's not about that necessarily, to my way of thinking. What it's about is does LMJ being available in games 1, 2 and 3 give you a better chance...
I agree with that last sentence totally and completely. I also think LMJ (and to a lesser extent CFM) are perfect for the bullpen. That's why it...
I don't think there was any desperation in the Gomez move. It didn't work out but you could see what they were thinking- get a guy who had been a...
No, that's not at all what I'm saying. I'm saying that as of now he hasn't submitted a monster season, isn't in position to do so this year, and...
Not true. A walk in the 8th inning with guys on 1st and 3rd to the first guy faced is a lot more painful than nibbling on the 2 hole hitter in...
I agree with Snake- Keuchel is in the rotation in the playoffs. I have zero desire to see him in the bullpen. His stuff isn't good enough and he...
Sure. I'm not saying he sucks. I'm not saying he's not a super star. I'm just saying he's not trending as an inner circle HOF guy right now like...
