  1. Heh, I was going to add: Right, it's not like Cincy has good pitchers....
  2. In fairness, it's hard to expect anyone to hit like this, and we are less than a month into the season, so not sure how much scouting there is. Also, Cincy is kind of a hitter's park.
  3. Yes, I forgot that I was annoyed by the timing also, thanks for the reminder. I really won't miss the lack of action from the TR FO.....
  4. I think that is the plan. to me, the big downside is all the dying, hunger, and lack of freedom for the NK people. That said, we can't fix the whole world.....so it's a tough call. If nukes and chemical weapons didn't exist, I'd say go in and free the people...probably I'd say that.
  5. The issue is, you don't deal a possible SP for a mediocre RP in a season where you are overly lucky, and have that be YOUR ONLY MOVE. They went 1/3 in, as usual, and now they could use Hu, at a minimum for depth. That is the part of the TR led FO I will miss least, not committing fully to a direction.
  6. Doziet: Does Dozier still hit 30 hr in 2017? 9:30 Paul Swydan: I’ll say no. 9:31 Jeff Zimmerman: No, probably not. I could still see 25
  7. Yes, yes you are. Got a great arm. Blood lines apparently matter some...
  8. Agreed. I'd see Sano at DH like, 15-20 times, and resting 5-8 games (assuming health).
  9. Not to mention the farm system isn't exactly highly ranked....so what they have been doing hasn't been working all that well.
  10. He's also threatening some kind of action against Canada on Dairy.....like that's Wisconsin's problem, and not FL....
  11. Nicely done......though there's nothing like the original, it's a nice copy....
  12. As I said in the general draft thread, KLAW has his top 50 up. McKay is third, btw..... I'm not going to rip a Greene, McKay or Wright pick (assuming Wright looks great the rest of the year). Anyone else? I'm going to seriously question the new FO. There is a MN HS kid he has 15th....
  13. I'd like to see Grossman at DH against about half the RHPs, with Mauer at DH against the other half. I'd like to see Vargas at 1B and PH. I'd like Grossman to play the OF every time they face a lefty, with the other OF taking turns having the day off. It's not like Grossman is old. Vargas should start at 1B against every lefty, imo.
  14. Hunter Greene is done pitching for the year, btw.
  15. KLAW has his top 50 up ..... Greene Wright McKay Royce Lewis Buskauskas Gore Kendall down to 10, which is higher than I thought he'd put him. Beck at 12. Sam Carlson from MN is 15th, btw. He is a bit down on the class, given how many of the guys that were top guys coming into the year have under performed.
  16. Last year the Reds gave up more than 7 HRs to only 1 player, Kris Bryant. This year? They've given up 8 to Thames already....(from a tweet, think it was a FG person....)...
  17. This, these are humans. Surgery should be a LAST choice.
  18. Santiago is the equivalent of the veteran 4th OF I wanted signed, except he actually needs to play also....someone that can hold a place, be ok when needed, but isn't so expensive or so old that he's blocking someone better (if that person exists). Given Hughes, Mays, and Mejia were on the roster, having someone like Santiago around made sense to me.
  19. Thread about bright spots...... Polanco for me is the brightest, his defense has been what some of us thought it was, despite what we were constantly told.
  20. scoops are included, but as you point out, most MLB 1B can scoop the ball. The delta between good and great isn't as large for 1B as it is for SS or CF.
  21. Impressive they managed not to score there. Not every team could do that.
  22. Draft in two days. I usually forward to this like few other days, but not having a first, not living in MN, and not knowing anyone here to watch it with has dampened that. That and the site I go to for Vikes stuff is getting stiflingly boring..... I am predicting DL in round 2, or a trade up for DL / OL.
  23. i agree, the line is very, very, fine. I'm glad I'm not President of any nation.
