  1. Are there many left handed relief pitchers, on bad teams, that are good and available?
  2. The next time you feel like you are not good at what you are trying, remember that these are the best ballplayers on the planet. If they can do that occasionally, you can make a mistake and still be good at what you want to do.
  3. You say that like its a good thing....
  4. Ya, it's a real bind (a good one, for a change) to have 7 starters you think you can rely on. Nice problem for a change. I'll say this, I've been VERY HARD on the front office for a few things, one being pitching development. If this is Winder (and Ober and Ryan).....I will have to stop that refrain.
  5. I keep Winder up. I use him every 5 days as a long reliever. He's 25....and good. Frankly, if they have all 7 starters healthy, I do a lot more piggybacking than they have been...... I'm unsure about the OF. It really depends on health. AK should be the 1B, Sano DH or DFA (can't believe I'm typing that), and Larnach or Celestino or Martin the LF.....
  6. I can't believe I'm typing this.....but if AK is healthy, I'd consider trading Sano for nothing other than salary relief at this point. I am flabbergasted, frankly. But, also, I'm ok with moving on.
  7. I'd be good with any of those, but I think WR is easier to get later, so he'd be my third choice, but, man, hard to pass on him....
  8. In the interest of more action, I'm good with banning the shift.
  9. You should read Joey Votto's tweets..... One of the greatest hitters around says it's a lot harder than you think.
  10. It was amazing. Like, he gets to leave and go to another company, and do the same kind of work, but other people shouldn't have that right. Truly mind boggling.
  11. Hahahahahahahaha. Just. Wow. On a site with ridiculous takes, this is perhaps the most ridiculous ever.
  12. I prefer humans to have some choice of where they work. And I'm 58.... I also prefer they get paid. The old days were terrible for players and their families.
  13. Of al the ideas here, this is the worst by far.
  14. I'm ok with that, but I'd rather Larnach was DH or RF and LF and DH (can he play first?). Martin would be a plus defender in LF, and IMO an on base machine. I'm also ok if they just move him to AAA (where the variance in pitching quality is lower) for now.
  15. Was in a bar. They turned it on and Minnesota had a sixteen point lead....I thought.. wow two times in a bar, two times they win.... Such naivete...
  16. Those fangraphs grades are from last year. They haven't updated the Padres list yet this year....we'll see if their thought have changed at all. A super young hard throwing pitcher isn't a terrible lottery ticket....
  17. Golf or hike with me? Not that I'd drink this early, of course...
  18. I have plans to drink later.....but its not like I actually work for someone else, so I could be....
  19. Truth. Those two are the biggies for me (actually, other than Ryan, not sure any player is doing close to what I expected, good or bad).
  20. I thought maybe they'd give the big guy 2 innings. Guess not.
