Strange comment...might have made a little more sense if this wasn't a rain-delayed game.
-
Wow, that was an insomniac special. Good road trip so far.
-
At this point I'm hoping it's only 5 innings.
-
Needless to say I hope he does well every time he takes the ball for us. As do we all.
-
Why does it matter? Calls for him to be DFA'd were not unjustified. He's still having a crap season, 13 million for a 5.42 ERA and a 4-11 record in his starts. Luckily we're salvaging a little from him lately, but who knows how long it will last or when he will get injured again.
-
Sorry, what does the $6.5M number represent?
-
I don't like any of them a whole lot either. It's hard to believe Buch is going to sucker us again though.

There are a few free agent pitchers who are having better seasons than Clay and making less money this year. http://www.spotrac.com/mlb/free-agents/

Ross, of course, didn't squeeze out Salty until the last 3 games of the WS. Gomes only did one thing in the entire postseason, and it didn't happen until Game 4 of the WS, but it was enough to justify the extra AB's Farrell gave him.
-
$13.5 mil should get you a 2 WAR player. Clay is a 0 WAR player this year. He really shouldn't be handed $13.5 mil for his 2016 performance. Exercising his option would really be betting upside.
-
My guess is that the voters do look at WAR for position players now, but they probably ignore WAR for pitchers. Based on fWAR for example, Price is ahead of Porcello.
-
Sanchez and Sandy Leon might be duking it out for 2017 AL batting champ.
-
And here I was trying to support your point.
-
4 years, 52 million. He was a better value choice, no question. My point is that his numbers were showing an even more severe regression than Pablo.
-
And Chase Headley's last 3 years were: 2012 .875 2013 .747 2014 .700
-
But that kind of increase is the norm for the top free agents every year.
-
Farrell went to Tazawa because he was much better rested. Ziegler has been busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest.

8/18 Schedule makers are Dbags

Their best option is to petition MLB to shorten games to 6 innings. That last game in Baltimore was a beautiful thing, as Eck would say. -
Yeah, things went a little off topic there. Oh well, there's a first time for everything.
-
Sandoval was a bad signing, obviously, but he had the best regular-season numbers of any third baseman that was available that offseason.
-
I don't think we have a single reliever who hasn't had a disaster within the last week or two.
-
Right now our bullpen is like playing Russian roulette with 4 bullets in the chambers. Usually it ain't gonna work out too good.
-
McCann has certainly been a semi-bust. It'll be interesting to see if Cashman can get anything for him. I just think that free agency in general has been a shitshow since the salaries went into the stratosphere. The Yankees have certainly been burned by that reality big time, and the Sox have joined them and quite frankly outdone them with the $167 million for nothing on Panda and Castillo.
-
Well, that's one way to look at it. I can just imagine what the talk would be right now if another team traded for Pomeranz (which most certainly would have happened) and we did nothing to improve our rotation, which everyone agreed needed to be improved.

Other than working.
