  1. Everybody just needs some more Vitamin W. It's the cure for all ills.
  2. And in those 6 seasons the Dodgers have 3 titles. And a 5.33 WAR is worth over 40 million. Betts's AAV is 30.4 million.
  3. LA would not have had a chance to outbid us if we signed Betts to an extension, you do realize that?
  4. Finally some positive regression perhaps. Also it's a crazy game.
  5. The Yankees just keep putting up winning records every year. Thankfully it hasn't translated to many rings lately - just 1 title since the year 2000.
  6. Some good fun with baseball names yesterday. Sonny Gray and Peyton Gray were winning pitchers. Christian Scott was a winner, Tanner Scott was a loser. And in the same game, Brad Lord was the winner and Michael King was the loser.
  7. Yes, a lot of tickets are re-sold on the secondary market. But obviously if the team is terrible you're not going to get nearly as much for them.
  8. This team is clearly headed in a bad direction. I'm 70 now, so I am kind of short-sighted LOL. But as I say, I see little chance of it happening. It's an expression of hopelessness, you might say. We did have a good run from 2004 to 2018, though.
  9. It's not just about the spending, not at all. It's more about the revolving door of CBOs that has made the job unattractive to most, which has led us to Breslow, who is looking more and more like an abject disaster.
  10. I'm on board with the "Sell the team!" folks now. But I also don't think it has a chance of happening. So I basically have no hope at all. ☹️
  11. Sounds like something my girl would say too.
  12. My first guess would be someone Ted spoke unkindly to. He was known to be rather contemptuous of the "knights of the keyboard".
  13. But it's kind of an accidental honor. It's not like anyone can cast a vote for unanimous...
  14. The unanimous thing is questionable but doesn't mean all that much IMHO. Some of the voters do dumb things.
  15. BTW there is a crazy spread between Rivera's bWAR and his fWAR, 56 vs. 39. He's not the only one with a big spread like that. Rick Porcello is another one.
  16. Seriously, that coach made himself an all-time joke with those statements.
  17. Take a look at Rivera's postseason game log. He had a huge number of outings that were more than an inning. A pile of 2 inning outings. He was the farthest thing from a 9th inning only guy.
  18. Closers might be overrated, but a good one is still nice to have. The leverage thing does matter, of course. One of the things that made Rivera great was that when needed he could give you the 8th AND the 9th.
  19. That argument would be quite a rabbit hole. Of course we've climbed down those many times before.
