  1. Keep playing Vargas until someone forces their way up, or he hits like Buxton. Of course, I don't believe this is a playoff team, so I'm all in on gathering data....
  2. Kepler will never get better against LHP if they don't let him hit. It also might be time to just realize Grossman is not all that good.... And no, Palka is not the answer.
  3. Given they are 4 down, Ruczinski (sp?) should come in next, since this is why he's here, to eat innings if needed.
  4. Generally, if you ignore things like this, the world doesn't change....that said, I don't see a need for any punishment for things like this that are in the heat of the moment and happen 1 time.
  5. could be worse, we could have lost our best hitter and might need DanSan to replace him in part of the lineup by juggling positions! Poor Braves.
  6. i think that's the real question, why is he even on the 40 man, and why isn't someone with a future?
  7. Well written apology. It seems legit, too.
  8. Good thing CO keeps giving free outs, or this could be bad...
  9. Well, Molly then IBB a guy in the 3rd, so we know he's still on the MN side for sure....
  10. and yet, that isn't true. KLAW and Longenhagen travel the nation and talk to scouts that watch these guys every single day, for example. I assume others do that also. Some are former scouts or FO people, with experience in the field. Some get hired by front offices every year. Also, the correlation between rankings and WAR is quite high. so, we'll just 100% completely disagree on your comments that these guys don't know anything about what they do for a living.
  11. No chance he makes it that far. None. Of course, I could be wrong, but no chance. With the bonus pools shrinking, they can't save enough money to entice him. Indeed, there are 2 teams that pick a 2nd time before the Twins do, so if anyone can do it, they maybe can.
  12. Thanks to Seth and Keith for these. Of course, I am a KLAW fanboy.....as much or more for his non-baseball work. I have been saying Wright for weeks, and I'd go that way. A legit 3, possibly 2, maybe a 1. As a college pitcher. From a good school. I love Greene's potential, and would have no issue with that pick. In fact, I'd be thrilled with that pick. KLAW just described him as having the stuff that makes HoF types!
  13. I think scouting the stat lines only is a mistake. I have not seen anyone say McKay's stuff is better.
  14. I don't know much about those markets, and every time I dip in, I get hammered.
  15. speaking of remakes.....the new Star Trek trailer (for the tv show) is up. Of course, the super nerds are already complaining...... I have no idea how this show is going to be. Remember, TNG was pretty meh it's first year, it wasn't until they killed Tasha that things really took off, imo.
  16. That's pretty much my strategy also. Just doing what Omaha tells me to do...
  17. Or not.....guess this why I am not a day trader.
  18. KLAW had said it. I have quoted it on these boards
  19. Greene has been described as a possible top ten pick as a hitter
  20. I would like less platooning of Kepler.....
  21. Hmmmm....all this news....i may bail on part of my portfolio.
  22. My waistline likes the way you think...
