  1. Projecting the Twins pitching starts with a bottle of Jack.
  2. Where do those same player seasons fall when adjustments for era are considered? I'd run a B-ref query myself if I still had subscription.
  3. No, but signing Pelfrey is just like making a trade.
  4. At least you've stopped denying it, that's a start.
  5. Commenting on one of Nick's pitching related articles without digging into your bag of Duensing strawmen? You're slipping.
  6. I miss BYTO. *tear*
  7. Teams with players that accumulate more WAR win more games, players that accumulate more WAR end up making more money. The correlations are there, your opinions just won't allow you to see them.
  8. Click on a username, then once the profile loads there's an "add to ignore list" option.
  9. I got about 3.5 CAR out of that. (chuckles above replacement)
  10. The problem with FG's WAR for pitchers is that it's built upon FIP. Guys that historically outperform their FIP get underrated a bit, while guys that regularly underperform get overrated. WAR on baseball-reference is based off a form of ERA, which comes with its own set of problems. A real rough rule of thumb, average the two together, and use $5 million per WAR.
  11. Well, you could afford to overpay a bit every now and then for a guy like Jackson if you weren't busy flushing that extra money down the toilet on a guy like Correia.
  12. One person is "people?"
  13. I imagine that his ligament tears regardless, the damage likely started long before.
  14. If Correia were an average starter no one would have gotten worked up about the deal he received.
  15. No one called him an elite pitcher, and he isn't going to get paid like one. I think you're underselling what average to slightly above average starters are worth and what they make.
  16. I agree with your primary point, I was just quibbling over the dollars/per. At least as far as FG's is concerned, they've always shown free agent dollars-to-wins working out to that 4-5 million per win neighborhood.
  17. Span + Revere >>>>>>>> Benson/Hicks + Lumbering stiff
  18. There was a Toronto guy that threw similar numbers out there, but they don't make any sense when used with the publicly available valuation metrics.
  19. Eh? Where did 8-9 come from?
  20. He would be guaranteed to bring a dirty uniform.
  21. God forbid a reference get made to someone's ethnicity without someone getting uppity about it.
  22. It's a good thing they jumped on Correia before someone else could snatch him up at a bargain price. *sigh*
  23. I don't know about JR, but I regretted it the instant it was reported.
  24. As if the owners aren't raking in the dough as well?
  25. "Might" be coincidental?
