Great job by Rogers. So happy he was made a RP.
-
Disappointing.
-
What is going on out there? Is it the cold?
-
might need the bullpen today.....a hunch, really.
-
this makes a ton of sense. Also, how the minor league options look....any decision on the 24* man roster has to be in context. *on this team, anyway.
-
I really like brussel sprouts. Thought I understand why others don't.....
-
I'll say this. I think Molitor cares more about winning than "it's opening day".....and I like that. I don't know if he's right or not, but I think he's trying to win more games, not worry about opening day traditions.
-
Like I said....it's an example. Say you pay Darvish over 10 or 15 years, same money, when he'll be late thirties under the "normal" deal. Why is spreading the money out bad? It's good in almost every other business.
-
Query: For a team on a budget, why is a 3 year, 75MM deal, better than a 5 year 85MM deal? Isn't stretching the money out better? Especially if you are willing to cut him after three years if he's bad? You were able to afford another player in teh first three years this way, right? edit: those numbers are examples, btw. If you are pedantic about the numbers, I did a bad job of communicating the actual point...
-
the second part. I think a verbal reminder is sufficient, never understood the benching thing (unless he's already warned him about this particular thing....)
-
thanks!
-
Ah, that makes me feel better already! thanks,
-
they are boht in the lineup on the home opener? Interesting..... who isn't playing in the OF?
-
I'd do a three year deal for sure. Beyond that? Depends on a lot of factors. I don't see them signing a top pitcher this coming off season, given the competition and the list (which isn't great for pitchers). So, they don't really need the money next year at least.
-
I'll probably be "working" during the game, try to be really funny so when I go back and read this later it's worth it. thanks everyone. "working" in this case means unloading window treatments for our installer, to speed up the process of installing, so we pay less. I think. Not sure. It's the wife's business, I just help out sometimes.
-
That fly ball had a 90% catch probability. I don't think it's charming at all, I rip every player when they slide into first. Continuing this line is starting to look like you are calling me out specifically. I probably rip players for sliding into first more than anyone else here. It's not charming at all, nor have I ever read a single person say it was. "swings at bad pitches?" nice straw man.
-
Neither? Also, as pointed out,tv hates day games. It's unusually cold this year. Happens sometimes. Not so that often, though.
-
Why OPS? Because I like WAR.... No place did I say they should sign him, I merely replied he's been better overall, not in one bad stat, for three of the last for years.
-
So far this year, Eddie has turned a routine fly into a double, slid feet first into first, did not leave the batters box, and tried to get picked off. In less than ten games. This is not about race for me. It's that it happens over and over. How is that even a question?

Not running out a routine grounder is not the same as not moving at all. Eddie does this over and over. If it was a one time thing, it would get less criticism for sure

Dozier has been better three of the last four years.... So, ya, you might want to rethink that stance...
-
Good stuff. Clearly long term deals are not dead yet! I don't know what I'd do if I was them.
-
It's hard to see day games during the school year being a great idea.
-
Fair. Very fair.
-
So, warm weather teams get few home games later in the year? I doubt they want that.
