8/9 200. Phillies/Padres got me. Roberto Alomar, Tom Seaver, Willie Mays Gary Sheffield, Eric Davis, Hank Greenberg Miss, Joe Morgan, John Kruk

Yeah, I’d hope that they think they could do that. And the regime has done well, so they deserve some benefit of the doubt, I agree. I wouldn’t be vehemently against this trade, btw.

No. I just don’t think Cease is that good. I can see that he’s got a lot of upside but it’s a gamble on whether or not the analytics department and coaching staff can turn him into something special.

He's not making points.

Who is arguing otherwise?

No way to know until the games start. It's a bit silly, I agree with @forphase1 If they're as good as Adley and Gunnar, it doesn't matter.

9/9 106

Orioles grid today.

9/9 88 Duane Kuiper, Grady Sizemore, Kenny Lofton Gaylord Perry, George Brett, Johnny Damon Will Clark, Albert Pujols, Vince Coleman

That's right. Had they been on pace to lose 100 games he'd have had a longer look.

When Elias and Co. demoted him, they were pointing to a small sample size. But that doesn't mean you win the debate. Just because they were pointing to a small sample size at the time doesn't mean they're willing to give up on him as a prospect or trade him. And, IIRC, Cowser hit some balls hard that were caught by defenders, I don't believe he was as bad as his SSS made him out to be.

Good points. I chose to keep Santander because the cold spells don’t seem as bad or as prolonged as they do with Hays. I’m also on my phone and too lazy to look if that’s accurate.

9/9 121 Buxton, Santana, Carew Drysdale, Kershaw, Sutton Larkin, Soto, Perez

Well, wildcard gets attached to certain players, it’s adorable. Fine. 1. Keep Cowser, partly to be contrarian but also because a lot of people said that Kjerstad hits from the left side, seemingly to have forgotten that CC does, too. 2. Keep Ortiz. 3. Push. But whatever, keep McDermott. 4. Keep Santander. 5. Keep Basallo. 6. Keep Urias.

I just don’t care. I mean, look at the options, it’s not like there’s a clear cut good player to keep and a bad one to trade. There’s no wrong answers. You must have me confused with someone else. I don’t care about being wrong on here.

Sounds like you’re in favor of pointing to small sample sizes.

I wonder how many votes Cowser would have received if he raked while he was up. Everyone loves to point to a small sample size on this board when downplaying someone’s shortcomings while hoisting up a SSS when someone flashes.

Who said it was going to be easy is what I want to know. And really, c’mon. It’s not like we have to do any work here. It’s as easy as can be for us.

Almost went with Dwight Evans, too. Lynn didn't miss by much though.

I almost went with him, but then figured he got hurt a lot and then switched to Rice.

Wait till wildcard hears about this move. 50/50, he could absolutely trash this pickup or he could be the founder of the Sam Hilliard Fan Club, Baltimore Chapter.
