  1. Harmony, you are pretty f***ing annoying, and I say that without an ounce of malice. Your schtick was old months ago.
  2. Not yet, it will be very accessible when it does happen, as most tickets are dirt cheap, and some games, unless you order some extremely expensive cable (eww) packages. Then again, the advent of pirated streaming allows everyone with half-decent internet at home to stream whatever mlb games they want.
  3. I mean, it's free on tv.
  4. Country grinds to a halt to watch the national team play here. It's madness.
  5. Also, it's baseball in March. Good 'nuff for me.
  6. I don't get the "few of us knew" garbage though. No one here knows s***, and it's not DD's fault the Padres withheld medical information. When healthy like he was the first part of the season last year, he was dynamite. They need to see what they have with the Pomeranian.
  7. I agree with this. In the end, scouts mostly agree that he has the tools to be both an above-average catcher and above-average hitter, why mess with that? He doesn't have nearly as potent a bat as Schwarber does, so there's simply no justification to turn him into a CIF or OF.
  8. Controlling a bunt's direction against high velocity is almost as hard as actually squaring a pitch and hitting a line drive. That's why players keep the bunt in their back pocket. Aren't you the "If you haven't played competitive baseball, you don't know clutch" guy? You should know this.
  9. A lot of pitchers don't alter the mechanics and end up injuring their elbows again, even requiring TJS again (Looking at you, Daniel Hudson). But crappy mechanics aren't the only reason guys get TJS. There's a genetic propensity to UCL problems sometimes (some guys are born with weak UCL's, have problems healing from the repeated impact from baseball activities like Rocco Baldelli) hell, RA Dickey was born without a UCL!
  10. So projections only make sense when they fall in line with your pre-conceived notions about a player. Gotcha.
  11. But what exactly do the scouts say about Swihart right now? I keep seeing you're quoting scouts, but what scouts, and what are they saying?
  12. Hit it where they ain't. How doesn't matter.
  13. I don't get why this is such a big deal. It's essentially Spring Training on a bigger stage.
  14. Drag bunts and sac bunts are different things deployed in different situations.
  15. Are you a stat guy then? BECAUSE YOU'RE UNDERVALUING HOLT AND YOU'LL NEVER GE IT.
  16. How does this turn into a "stat guys will never get it" argument? That's a stupid leap-of-faith logical fallacy. You can't pigeonhole an entire group of people because someone said Holt is being overvalued.
  17. But how does that picture specifically relate "he doesn't give a s***"? That's stupid.
  18. I really like you.
  19. Because I can, and because I'm curious.
  20. Why is this argument still a thing? No one is going to change anyone's mind. Not that I mind the discussion by the way, as it is the purpose of both the board and this thread specifically. I'm just wondering where y'all think this is going to lead.
  21. It was the Pats' strategy. Even the Falcons' D acknowledged it.
  22. The 14 million dollar grand slam. That's an easy one.
  23. Per-sport standards.
  24. I wanna buy this post a steak dinner.
