Watching Chris round the bases tonight I thought to myself, who said we didn't get a MOO bat last winter.

After Hamilton was signed, that is when I jumped on the Davis bandwagon for MOO. I said 45+ this year, but with the hot start I figured why not 73 so that is what I am sticking with for the countdown. He is going to have to get his average up though if he is going to win MVP.:new_beer::D

People gotta give Dempsey a break even if Davis hits only 45 or so homers - as long as his OPS stays over 1. I love Koji, but that trade looks pretty good for the O's.

If Davis hits around 50 HR's, Dempsey's rhetoric that he could hit 60 HR's one day won't seem nearly as stupid.

Miggy is on a whole other level. But if for some reason he has a bad stretch and Chris Davis is consistent all year like this, Chris Davis will win the MVP. But Miggy needs to...stop being Miggy for a while. And Crush needs to be Crush all year long. Two things we have yet to see from either player in their career.

Who knows, Crush could have a Ryan Howard MVP type year and get the job done. Even with Howard's 58 HR and over .300 BA, many thought Pujols should've won that year.

    • I think it means it was 12 balls and 9 strikes in the 6th inning and then the math would work out. Of course, that assumes he’s right/being honest about what it what through 5 IP. 
    • There was no reason for him to enter that game. 
    • Yeah, I agree. I think Baumann is fine. I half expect for them to option Akin because that buys them time to make a more permanent decision. We'll find out pretty darn soon, I presume.
    • Does the 6th inning not count?    Anyway, your math is wrong.  He threw 59 of 98 pitches for strikes.  You say he was 12-21 in the 6th.  That makes him 47 of 77 through 5.   That’s 61%, not 65%. But anyway, you’re picking one negative sentence in @Sports Guy’s post, when mostly he’s posting something positive.   Seems like you’re just looking to pick a fight, and/or overly defensive about any criticism of Povich, no matter how mild.    For me, if I were to grade Povich’s progress this year compared to my expectations, I’d probably give him a 9.9 out of 10.   Doesn’t mean he shouldn’t work on the 0.1.    I wanted to see him going 6+ innings pretty regularly as a next step in his progression.  Well, there’s one.    
    • 1) you didn’t answer my question..predictably. 2) All that shows is that he wears down as the game goes on, which is something we have discussed as a potential issue. But sure, the 65% is a good sign. If you had the ability to not be a complete dbag about him, you would see that people aren’t bashing him but any single comment that is a negative against him, you fly off the handle like some unhinged  college student.
    • Can they put Kimbrel on the DL for now, and keep both Baumann and Ramirez? Kimbrel warmed up last night, but didnt come in the game. Maybe he's still hurting.
    • There is definitely a heavy bias keeping the "unofficial" Power Rankings from straying too far from the "official" Prospect Rankings for the time being. Looks like only a couple guys have moved significantly based on performance.
