Just citing ERA doesn't sound like you,. maybe you if you were in a hurry. 

I intuited that Palooka had a 6.33 FIP.  And was the 9th-best starter on the Iowa Royals.  Oh, and did I mention that his great-grandfather pitched (underhanded!) in the Three-I League in 1933?

But what was his TTP?

Has the world come to this?  atomic said the same thing a page back, and I actually positive repped the post.

It is true that no transaction is small enough to avoid mocking that it isn't the next Scherzer signing.

We have nothing of significance to talk about with this team, and we just watch the Nats get the WS Trophy.

Sorry I didn't know or I wouldn't have repeated.

I don't think it's even meant sarcastically, someone says it because it is the expectation that someone says it.

I don't even get why that would bother folks.  But to each their own.

it doesnt brother me, well, it does tweak a bit, that it wasnt the Orioles that took home the Mirror Ball (DWTS toss in).

Typically Oriole off season, nothing going on to talk about,  and we get bored.

I think that should be "rearranging the deck chairs"  which is probably the most accurate reply in most cases.

You caught me.  I was under the impression that my smart tv did not have a built-in camera as I manipulated my fantasy girl, er, baseball, team.

I don't like mocking transactions just because they are likely to have little or no impact to the success of the major league team.  The Nats' and Astros' AA teams have to have utility infielders, too.  Do their fans react with howling and cackling when they acquire one?

I guess folks would prefer that nobody is competing with Stevie Wilkerson in the spring?  Or that the O's should skip all acquisitions that don't add 3-4 wins this year?

I was just amazed that atomic jumped in with a semi-insightful post before you got to it.  But then he made up for it by talking about how most Elias transactions are rearranging the deck chairs and correcting you for not phrasing it right.

My favorite emoji was the one of it barfing. It's a shame some of the good ones are gone!
