  1. Planing on avoiding the game threads when he does?
  2. This is the new one, they can't go back and use the old one. I wonder if this will impact their season?
  3. I've said it before, I don't think he's an actual fan of the game. The guys that came before him, even if they worked for the owners, had a love of baseball which tempered their actions.
  4. Launch angle man, only squares hit the ball on the ground.
  5. Even without Mountcastle they weren't catching the Tigers.
  6. They could have used last September to figure it out. ?
  7. Or at least before they put him in left and at first. They don't seem to have much of a plan. Someone whose bat is ML ready shouldn't be wondering if they are going to play him in left, right, first, second or third.
  8. My first post wasn't a rant thread. One technique is to ease yourself into a new community.
  9. I've read Astroball, Altuve just started eating right. ?
  10. My take on the comments is that his fitness was also an issue.
  11. Baseball doesn't have a combine where these guys are measured. Is Bundy actually exactly 6'0"? Take any height or weight measurement with a grain of salt.
  12. Other than service time what other reason can you come up with for Mountcastle not getting a September promotion? If he needs to work on plate discipline and defense why not do it in the majors instead of sitting on the couch? He was going on the 40 during the offseason anyway.
  13. I wonder who would have signed him and for what? What number was I throwing around 3/58? Even that would have been a huge overpay.
  14. I got it the first time. The lack of movement part reminds me of a Fangraphs piece on Givens.
  15. I lived in Arizona for a bit, enjoyed it. Then again it was winter.
  16. I did have information, I knew that the Angels had traded him to the Giants. That was the totality of my participation in the thread to that point. You asked about stuff I hadn't been talking about.
  17. They can be *injured* for a portion of the season.
  18. The medieval warm period was real. It wasn't exactly that long ago. I won't pretend I'm familiar with the Mondur minimum.
  19. I don't see how someone who made it into the second round of the rule V draft making it a full season in a ML rotation.
