  1. Well, I am not defending him. I just set them as very different acts.
  2. Getting in one fight with someone that is your age is different than repeatedly whipping your children with a stick. No comparison.
  3. Well. This just sucks. Good luck in your recovery sir.
  4. Meh. Get me a pass blocking/pass catching RB..... Joe Mixon in teh draft, if they feel he's forgivable....
  5. I think so. Newton held the ball a lot longer than Bradford. I'd guess Remmers will be in the middle zone of RTs. Which, compared to the last two years, is like having the best RT ever out there.
  6. It was an exaggeration on my part.....you were a better blocker than Clemmings last year, Nick.
  7. They just signed perhaps the only OT worse than Clemmings last year......
  8. Some people binge watch tv. some people can't put a book down. Some people drink too much. Some people stay out too late. Some one does everything/anything to excess. Fans and boards are notorious for expecting athletes to be athletes 100% of the time, and not humans.
  9. roads and water and the environment, fire, police.
  10. Sure, go back and look at the last 5 years, and show me all the trades in April and May.....
  11. Why do people think Berrios is the first one called up? What about Meija? Or, if he's in AAA, Voglesgang? Or moving Duffey to the rotation for a "start or two while Hughes is on the 15 day dl"?
  12. I don't know. I don't want Berrios to come up, make 2 starts, and then go back down.....it isn't about number of starters, it's about which starters get 20+ starts. I want that to be Berrios, so he either learns up here, and they know they can count on him in 18 and beyond, or they learn that maybe he's not all that good, and they need to go get more SP..... we won't learn that in a few spot starts.
  13. good point, depressing, but good point.
  14. Matt 9:42 Why did nobody claim Byung Ho Park? Is there really any difference between him and Eric Thames other that the sequencing of their career path? Jeff Sullivan 9:42 Well, the sequencing is relevant, because Thames had a good 2016 and Park did not But I do feel like Park's skills have been undersold
  15. Can they demote any of the pitchers other than May? I don't think so. Who would they release after 1 month? I can't see them acting that fast. As for injury, I can buy that, but odds are it is for a start or three....then what?
  16. Gentry 9:20 How's Jose Berrios' command? Coming into last year it had been written that he was at least average in command, but now it is said to be his main drawback? Jeff Sullivan 9:20 One is pretty much not allowed to be positive after what happened to Berrios as a rookie 9:21 Doesn't mean he can't excel, but based on the most recent evidence, he's got a lot of kinks to work out Sterling Mallory Chris Archer 9:26 Talk to me about Brian Dozier. Do you think he can come close to replicating last years power? Jeff Sullivan 9:26 Depends what you mean by "close." He hit for power in 2015, too. 30 home runs is easily within his reach
  17. 100% this. It won't be bad luck if they don't get much for ESan and/or Dozier, it will be on them.
  18. You are going to make what decision after 3-5 starts? Cutting a SP? After 3-5 starts?
  19. Trades don't happen until June or July. They just don't.
  20. We would. Some fans believe that athletes should be doing athlete stuff 24 x 7, or they don't really CARE.
  21. What happens if Berrios fails again? leave him out there until the end of 2018, to see if he improves. Because if Berrios isn't good, and Gonsalves has shoulder issues, does any of this really matter?
  22. Agree with the point on moving Mauer for sure......that should have been done much earlier, as many here and elsewhere said at the time.
  23. I say put him and Dan San in the OF every day, until the pitchers tell the FO they are on strike!
