  1. McCann, making his presence known. *said with a straight face
  2. That could have been much worse considering they’re crushing balls.
  3. Sure am glad McCann is back there!
  4. I hate that stupid run on contact play, thank goodness they’re dumb enough to put it on.
  5. I’d like to think so, but I’m not so sure.
  6. Indians hitters are champing at the bit to get in the box right now.
  7. Did someone actually propose Mateo as a centerpiece in a trade? And as another poster said, you’re undervaluing him. Heck, the Dodgers signed Chris Taylor, who has a similar skill set (except for speed) to multi year deal, but at the time no one thought it was an awful deal.
  8. You track your wins/losses? What’s your percentage?
  9. Ah, yes, but life is risk. Without any risk, there is at best limited reward. You say adventure, I say gamble, or risk. The risk assessment is what determines the choices we make. "Do I ask her out and risk rejection?" It's your choice, but don't do it. She'll break your head! Yes, head, not heart. Kidding, of course.
  10. Even Wieters at 5 wasn't necessarily a bad pick. He didn't work out like the projections had him, but he had a few good years.
  11. Agree, and it seemed less glaring last year, but since the defense is also not sustainable it's exceptionally glaring this year.
  12. Kidding aside, I did place a small wager on them to win it all. Other than that, no.
  13. You gamble every day on a variety of things. Calculated assumptions based on evidence of a life lived. Then again, I may be rationalizing my obsession with gambling.
  14. Is there something wrong with Adley? I've seen a lot of speculation, but nothing substantive. If so, you're right. Stowers, I mean Kjerstad, needs regular ABs.
  15. Yep, got my popcorn ready, sitting in my "deck chair".
  16. Lol, I thought this was a stat of which I was unaware. "His" record is what is still recorded as a win, but his ERA (if that's what you choose) shows the bigger picture. I don't know if they're breaking out tonight, but I like their chances.
  17. On what are you basing your statement? I don't necessarily disagree, but he could also be packaged with another prospect/MLB player. Not a bad comp except for the speed which is a big part of Mateo's value. He can create havoc on the basepaths and arguably would have more stolen bases if he played more. Then again, his bat may be exposed if that happened.
