The FA market has become extremely quirky and unpredictable.
Who would have thought Keuchel and Kimbrel would be the ones hung out to dry?
And on the other hand, I was surprised at how much Machado got.
They can't sign everybody. We do have the highest payroll in the game, and Sale and Bogey got those extensions et cetera.
I like Rick too, but I can't see knocking the FO about payroll.
What was the most gutsy pitching change in Red Sox history?
For me there's no contest. It was when Tito brought in Bronson Arroyo for the 8th inning of 2004 ALCS Game 6.
Last 10 starts:
64.2 IP
3.20 ERA
54 K
10 BB
.607 OPSa
If Rick keeps pitching like this, he gonna get paid.
You can't discount the Recency Effect. Just ask Nate Eovaldi.
I assume that the Yankees are sporting the heaviest roster in baseball history. Damn do they have a lot of hulks. This isn't some sort of fetish thing on Cash's part is it?
1) They only ran Smith out there because it was a 5 run lead.
2) Kimbrel was looking for more twice what he got.
3) 4 titles in 15 years and 119 wins last year while being "cash strapped" isn't so bad.
You're as clueless as ever, thanks for the laughs.
Leake's fWAR was much lower than his bWAR due to his 5.35 FIP, which was a result of 20 long balls allowed in 88.2 IP.
He is a little Porcello-ish though.
Right, but Don't Call Me Uncle Rico thinks Mookie was wrong to turn down the $200 million.
I think he's right to believe someone would pay him $300 million.
