  1. Arrieta continues to suck this season.
  2. Minimum numbers? I don't think that way. He can't play like s***. Is that quantifiable? He needs to make the routine plays in the field and not be a black hole in the lineup.
  3. Benintendi is into his 5th consecutive game without a hit. That is a slump, and he should probably be moved out of the cleanup spot.
  4. It could be worse. You could learn that you got an STD while getting your teeth pulled.
  5. LOL!! I didn't say what kind of quality.
  6. He should get no more than 5-6 weeks.
  7. I agree. We would have been selling high, very high. He would have brought back a lot. We might not have had to part with Moncada if we were willing to part with Bradley.
  8. Very few people in the stands.
  9. Bradley with 2 HRs and 1 Double this year. Oye!!
  10. Drop us a line when he does.
  11. Even if he never makes it to the show.
  12. There is a lot of money in the baseball industry and they are still discovering new revenue streams, so I am not holding my breath for a decrease in player salaries, even though I think it would be best for the long term health of the sport. That is just my opinion, and it is based on my belief that high ticket prices, star players changing laundry all the time, and post season games that start after bedtime combine to rob the sport of young fan recruits who want to connect with their heros by going to games. I guess that I am hopelessly old fashioned in that regard.
  13. Beware of the cliff!!
  14. Markets that are irrationally exuberant do self correct. An argument could be made that most MLB salaries are part of an irrationally exuberant market -- that is not exclusive to Closers.
  15. That should get factored into determining their market value. I am sure that the numbers crunchers and FO executives take that into consideration when determining FMV.
  16. He did have knee surgery. But other than that, he has been as advertised. However, that is not the point. You can't get proved established top quality except at FMV. Anything can happen to the asset after it has been acquired. Players don't come with guarantees.
  17. If you want proved and known top quality, it is true.
  18. Or top quality.
  19. It would be a simple understandable and very revealing stat.
  20. Does it look like they will get the game in today?
  21. The market establishes the value of any asset.
  22. That is one state that hasn't ruined a great saying. Just sayin.
