  1. Haven't noticed. Been too much Lyons for my liking.
  2. Considering the flak that some people get around here for "psychoanalyzing" Panda and his eating habits, this is an even greater leap in logic. I don't see him thinking that way personally and tend to just think his defense will look better over the long term. At most, maybe it's the case where he needs to spend more time working on his offense and his defense has suffered a little?
  3. Also, defensive metrics are spotty at best right now.
  4. Aren't you the guy complaining about SSS in other posts? I could be wrong. This seems to be the case here since his defensive WAR is well above replacement for 2014 and 2015. Should we expect that he will end the season with 4 errors (which would tie his career total)? I wouldn't expect that.
  5. I can't argue with that. I don't think any stat is perfect.
  6. Isn't Seattle playing well this year?
  7. Why would the Cards trade Holliday? They are above .500 and Hazlebaker has been slumping the way we expected him to. Grichuk and Piscotty will be in the OF for years to come, but there's no reason to believe Hazelbaker will stick around much longer.
  8. This is all that is required for a 5th starter. Just try to keep the team in the game.
  9. There is no power impact on OBP. A HR counts the same as a single. Everything contributes to OBP regardless of power. Power has absolutely nothing to do with OBP.
  10. I'm willing to change my viewpoint if someone can provide better evidence than "it's a no brainer."
  11. That hole is typically filled by a mishmash of AAAA guys. Would a full year of Buchholz be worth $26M? Nope. And there is more than one person on here that call the decision a "no brainer." Sorry, I just can't agree with that. It's also language that belittles anyone who thinks otherwise. I don't see the point in throwing around Vlad Dracul's money without regard for who is actually playing.
  12. Sitting Ortiz against a LHP? I'm ok with it. He can't go every day.
  13. He's also spent lots of real time on the DL and has had real struggles in the past. To me, he's just not a sure enough bet to take up a spot in my rotation.
  14. I should sig this.
  15. How is "a big chunk of OBP is hitting for power?" Power has nothing to do with OBP. If Holt goes 2-4 with 2 singles and Papi goes 2-4 with 2 homers, don't they have the same OBP?
  16. JBJ can't hit. We need Trout! Trade the farm!!!
  17. Considering how this system looked at times, it isn't always a big feat.
  18. Lars didn't even play well in Pawtucket. Benintendi and Moncada are so far beyond Lars that it's impossible to compare them.
  19. The new guy is terrible. So boring. OB is a great radio voice.
  20. DiceK helped win a WS in 2007. He was good in 2008. That wasn't a bad signing.
