Credit where it’s due to Melanie Newman

I wish John Martyn had taken things more seriously. -
I don't see how having a guy that isn't good at third play third is showcasing him. They are showcasing the fact that he's not good over there.

And this classic line: Mind you I'm a fan of the song but that line always sticks out like a sore thumb. -
He was smote in the forehead. Great control or not what helmet doesn't cover the forehead?

No, the one that took the head shot from a rock. What kind of Philistine Champion isn't wearing a helmet? No way you are getting a kill shot with a river stone against a guy with a helmet on.

We also have Stowers, Norby, Kjerstad and Mayo in the upper minors that have questions about their defense. Can the O's develop guys defensively?

He's a lock. He's been a lock. Could retire today to follow his dream of being a meteorologist.

I don't expect any player to be healthy for the next six years. My base assumption is that something is likely to come up to cause even position players to miss half a season out of every six. Blown knee, pulled lat, hamstring issues. Something always seems to come up.

Durocher said "“The nice guys are all over there. In seventh place.” You're quoting a sportswriter that jazzed it up.

It's acres.

I'm not sure Grayson doesn't have roughly equivalent trade value. Aside from being hurt that is.

It's not semantics. To use far as a modifier greatly changes the meaning of the sentence. If hitters were far more successful you'd have to be a fool to pick a pitcher unless there was a significant gap in talent. We don't have evidence that has been the case. It's just SG being hyperbolic and if he isn't reigned in every now and then he starts to take over.
-
And yet pitchers exist. It's not "far" more. You are just pissy that someone actually bothered to read your drivel and call you on it.
-
No, you said hitters are far more of a sure thing. It's right up there, a few posts ago. Why do other teams ever draft pitchers? Are they stupid? Why doesn't every team just draft hitters and trade them for pitchers?
-
That's an exaggeration. Tons of hitters also don't pan out. Even the ones viewed as sure things like Torkelson and Johnson struggle.
