    Devin Williams breaking his hand while drunk seems fitting for the Brewers.
  2. mvp 78
    Rockies, DBags and Padres are all below .500. But that's a tougher division I guess.
  3. mvp 78
    Ok, so the Rays only have 91 wins instead of 98.
  4. mvp 78
    When did you switch from the Twins to the Mariners?
  5. mvp 78
    And I spent all of 2 hours talking about it. Not sure that's "pining" for someone.
  6. mvp 78
    His 2014 in CLE was pretty bad. Nobody is pining for JBJ. It was just an idea to add DEFENSE in RF. If someone can point out a similar player that is available in FA, let me know. Instead of listing similar players yesterday, you just provided a list that included a bunch of bat first no glove guys that don't fix our OF problem.

    You mean from 2010 - 2013? Ok. Who had the most fWAR in that time period: Justin Masterson or any Red Sox pitcher? However, I don't think anyone wanted Masterson after he fell off a cliff in 2014.

    Command is being able to locate a pitch. Control is being able to throw that pitch for strikes.
  9. mvp 78
    This has nothing to do with command.
  10. mvp 78
    Nobody was asking for Justin Masterson. He had a 5.88 ERA the year before he came back. People thought he could maybe be a 5th starter. Nobody was asking for him to come back in 2015.

    What if Fisk's HR was actually foul? What if Big Papi decided to play soccer instead of baseball?

    Love getting into some 1969 division alignment talk. The reason the Reds were in the West was because the Cardinals and Cubs (both further west than the Reds) lobbied to be in the same division with the Mets and Phillies. This is why the Braves and Reds were pushed to the West. There were concerns about inequity if the Cards, Cubs and Giants were all in the same division.
  13. mvp 78
    Unless they choked in the playoffs too.
  14. mvp 78
    Ok, so they are not arbitrary now, or are at least LESS arbitrary. Good.
  15. mvp 78
    I'm fine with the WC teams having a slight disadvantage.
  16. mvp 78
    I'm going to disagree about Sale's command right now. Eovaldi's seems to be better than Sale's right now.

    Top 4 teams in the AL East: 365 Wins Top 4 teams in the AL West: 341 Wins If the Rangers had 7 more losses to equal the O's, the AL West would still only have at most 348 wins. Seems like the Jays/Sox/Yanks/Rays are just good this year?
  18. mvp 78
    Rangers have only 7 more wins than the O's. Divide those wins by the top 4 teams and the difference isn't material.
  19. mvp 78
    The only thing really arbitrary in baseball is Angel Hernandez' strike zone. Good thing he's working the Guardians/Royals series instead of something that matters.
  20. mvp 78
    It's only fair that Boone becomes despised in NY too.
  21. mvp 78
    Small sample but... 2008 - 2017: zero years where two 100 game winners were in the same division. Seems like maybe not half? C'mon man.
  22. mvp 78
    @Swydan Fun fact: If the Red Sox win one more game and the Blue Jays win two more games, the AL East will become the first division in the Wild Card Era to have four 90-win teams. Most divisions have had 3 in one season or another, but no one has had 4. "Ah, you see, but the AL West is better because..."
  23. mvp 78
    The divisions aren't arbitrary. They're geographic. Is it often that there are two 100 game winners in the same division?
  24. mvp 78
    And it seems like it won't happen this year either. The 5 best records from both leagues will either get a playoff birth or a WC game. Seems ok?
  25. mvp 78
    Interesting that the NL West Braves are in the playoffs, but the Los Angeles Dodgers have to play the WC game with a better record. What a world!
