  1. This ump is bad. Three overturned and he could easily have three more. The Monasterio pitch missed by 6 inches, but it's questionable sportsmanship to challenge with a 10-run lead.
  2. Rutschman = Rogers Anthony = JJ or White Story & Mead=Sogard & Seigler Crochet = Weissert/Burgos IKF might get DFAd
  3. I just let the circumstances my emotions. It drives me nuts when bad teams sit on their hands at the TDL. With winning teams are so desperate, wring every ounce of value out of your players. Most of them would probably love to go from worst to first. Varsho got traded to the Astros on 8/3, and he was in the Astros lineup on 8/3.
  4. Even in this, so much gray. For me, I like to see how much upside we are trading v the return. With Duran, we're not getting anywhere close to the return that he *might* be able to supply. The implied odds thingy in a hold'em game.
  5. So now I got money in the market, and you're telling me that AI is a bad bet? SMH!
  6. I think the dude can, and will, contribute. But he swings at a pitch over his head, and then takes strike three? Incredibly frustrating.
  7. That was one of the biggest things when we got Schwarber. Players were like 'wait, you get four balls and then they let you walk to 1st?'.
  8. Or is just the recency factor. When you're winning, everything looks good.
  9. I don't disagree, but there is a lot of gray area at the margins. I wouldn't have liked a trade of Arias for either Neto or Abrams, but would've been pretty okay with a swap of Arias for DLC. And sometimes I can be talked into a trade. As I posted in the Mayer trade, it was a little shock to the system. I thought he should be traded, but an RP and a non-premier prospect seemed weak. Now I am good with it. Is that a testament to my awesome analytical skill, or did homerism just set in?
  10. First team on the list. Too bad the TDL passed, or else we'd have gotten something for him.
  11. Maybe, and I am just spit-balling here, maybe the fact that we have a fair amount of guys from AAAA that had to make use of every skill they could learn. The 25-HR guys probably spend less time practicing the bunt.
  12. I can't imagine what the WS manager must've been thinking. Like, I tried the silver bullet, I tried the stake thru the heart, what now? A few more innings, and he'd have been waiting for the sunlight to hit us.
  13. I think all the players he acquired in the off-season have a lot of heart.
  14. I was wondering how many of these kids he had managed in the minors. He probably knows half of them.
  15. I almost posted the same thing. I don't want to give players away, but if I get what I want, I simply don't care how well the other team does.
  16. And Wong, Story, Durbin, Duran, Ceddanne, Yoshida, Tolle, Moran, Weissert, Slaten, and Sandoval.
  17. That's always a pet peeve of mine. If a guy gets traded in the off-season, then questioning whether we should've matched is fair game. But if a team held onto their player, it either means they had no intention of trading them, or their ask was so high that none of the other 29 teams wanted him. edit-Having finished reading your post, it appears that you said the same thing.
  18. I know the mitt protects the hand, but can't they put little tiny claws on the end of it to produce some drag over the base? It seems like we've been over-sliding a fair amount.
  19. 2007 showed we weren't a one-time blip.
  20. My wife does the same. I'm pretty good at recognizing the names, but she also uses the up-down arrows instead of page-up/page-down. I can see 7 titles at once and mostly know what I want, but not when the page is scrolling up and down. But since I was the poster-boy for ADD, I say nothing.
