    It’s getting really really old watching these bums showcase their total lack of plate discipline. All of them.
  2. FredLynn
    It would be insane for this team to be buyers at the deadline. They are going NOWHERE this year. Management needs to face reality and plan to compete in a couple of years.

    Devers has become a liability in the field. That means he is a DH. His contract is an overpay for a DH. Aside from his crap attitude its an overpay they got rid of. I say good riddance. We can do better with that money-if Henry will actually spend it. Its actually a miracle we got anything at all besides getting rid of his contract in return for ditching the prima donna.

    I saw this game already. Crochet gets taken out and the pen blows the game. Again
  12. FredLynn
    Watching this team is worse than going to the dentist
  13. FredLynn
    You said "in their right mind".....that leaves Breslow and Henry out.

    Who’s winning?
  15. FredLynn
    Not impressed by Anthony at all
  16. FredLynn
    Because his arm is still attached
  17. FredLynn
    Great Give Buehler a Hoodsie. Then DFA him
  18. FredLynn
    I make Buehler stay out there until his arm falls off so he can be put on the IL for the rest of the year.

    We are 14th in hitting and 15th in pitching. We are at .500. Mediocre again. Yet the mss as management says they’re not throwing in the towel. They should. I know they can’t SAY that but it’s obvious they know. Mediocre again. Disgusting
  20. FredLynn
    They were pitching him in and hard and he couldn't handle it. He should consider moving a bit off the plate as Middlebrooks said during some of the ABs.

    I didn’t say he’s diabetic. But he definitely meets the criteria for obesity. And if you’re obese you’re certainly not “perfectly healthy”. Just because you don’t have complications related to your weight yet doesn’t mean you’re healthy. Now if Devers was squatting 500 pounds and benching 400 pounds and as a result his muscle mass was increased then the bmi calculator should be taken with a grain of salt. Football players do that-heavy lifting-but typically baseball players don’t train that way, so I think the bmi calculator is pretty reliable. By all means form you own opinion but imo Devers meets the criteria for class one obesity.
  22. FredLynn
    OK, but the fact is he is obese based not only on his calculated BMI but also via the eye test. Baseball players are not always in the best shape. Papi was and likely still is obese. Sandoval.....many others. These people are not overly muscular. They are carrying too much fat. Devers IS obese and eventually its going to not only hurt his performance on the field but it will affect his overall health.
  23. FredLynn
    At 6 feet and 245 lbs (which is what I found) his BMI is 33.2, class one obesity. Anything over 30 BMI is obese. Devers IS obese. Now admittedly there are problems with BMI calculators because they fail to account for people who are overly muscular. But Devers isn't a body builder. He's just obese.
  24. FredLynn
    I'm not inclined to use that term, but the fact is that Devers is overweight, probably bordering on obese. Not fat shaming him, just pointing out that his longevity and proclivity towards injury are going to be affected by his weight. Just seems that baseball management should have some sort of weight goals to enforce with their players.
  25. FredLynn
    Yeah but now we have (more accurately Henry has) about $250M to spend on high quality players. Let’s see how much of it he invests in the team and how much of it he invests in his wallet. My guess is that he’ll keep most of it. Meanwhile the win streak is over-but we have Crochet going tomorrow.
