Could that one be climate changing?  I thought it just would be destructive to the surrounding area like St Helens?

It would be an extinction level event if that thing blows. One of the biggest magma chambers on the earth that could eject enough ash to cover the entire US in three inches of it. It's not called a supervolcano for nothing.

Thanks, that was what I was asking.

Well, aren’t you cheerful today...

Yeah, that it would be. The area is rising...

It's been awhile since I looked into it closely, but a couple years ago, the ground was swelling so badly that entire lakes were being displaced into surrounding areas. The area gets a little more active each year. An eruption is absolutely inevitable and when it happens, there's nowhere to hide. It would destroy everything within like a thousand mile radius in a couple weeks and the enormous amount of shit it would eject into the atmosphere would be carried by the jet stream all over the planet and block out the sun which will kill all plants. Animals, including us, wouldn't be far behind.

      John Smoltz on why pitchers are "breaking" and what we should do about it..

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      The same thing is happening in all sports.  What does travel ball and AAU have in common?  They just play games & they don't practice, they don't learn the proper mechanics, they don't learn fundamentals, and rarely practice at all it is just a group of kids that play games and tournaments.  That is whey the United States is falling behind in players being drafted in the NBA from the United States.   Both AAU you dont do those little things then you go to some tournament and play countless games in a short period and then a few weeks later you do the same thing.  Even in high school and college sports they are playing more and more games.  If you have to play more games that means you are practicing less and less.

      I'd rather increase the number of pitchers to spread innings around more and account for modern pitch counts.

      Basallo for Crochet?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I hear ya, but hear me… I know that mlb pipeline just did no major overhaul and has just slotted guys up based on graduations. I don’t follow the other lists daily so I would not be speaking accurately.  It’s July 2nd. The draft is two weeks away. Usually all the sources do a pretty big rerank once players sign and debut. So let’s wait 4-5 weeks until those overhauled lists come out. Our 3 guys shouldn’t have their eligibility exhausted unless an injury happens.  So we’ll see.  Heck, would might be not be eligible when the post draft lists come out in August. 130 ABs is the cutoff.

      Probably some combination of all the things that were leading to increased TJ before the pitch clock being taken even further and year to year variability.

      So, who WOULD you trade?

      By G54377 · Posted

      Holliday for Logan Webb would be cool. There's not really a reason for them specifcially to do that trade, but that's the kinda player (established #1 starter under contract for 3+ years) that I'd do it for.

      Poll - Would you trade McDermott for Scherzer straight up?

      By Gentile4 · Posted

      If the concern is that Scherzer might break down before the end of the season, then I'm not sure I see the logic in thinking the longer he pitches, the safer the deal becomes. I would think the more wear and tear on his body, the more likely that issues surface.

      Basallo for Crochet?

      By Explosivo · Posted

      And how did Joey work out? He was bouncing around 100 for a bit. I don’t think it’s quite respected enough yet and hopefully is by other teams now, the job that Elias and Sig have done to identify talent. They are hitting on all of their guys. All of them. So the return better have teeth because these guys will be playing on their team for awhile.    I could frankly care less what talent evaluators say and I could frankly care less about trading for Crochet. That dude is not an ace, hasn’t pitched major innings, could just end up in the bullpen and the pressure from national media is trade, trade, trade. When that happens, be wary.   No, I’d rather us keep our long term pieces in tact, go out and grab some DFA’d guys at the deadline and wait till the offseason for Rubenstein to unleash hell and re-sign Burnes, sign a couple of other relievers and grab a quality starter.   Keep the train moving. If anything, you’ll likely see Hays or Urias traded for some relief pitching depth and their presence on the team replaced with younger guys. At most you’ll see Norby traded as he doesn’t really have a spot once Holliday comes up.
