  1. At this point, even a wildcard looks like progress from here.....
  2. I'd rather blame the awesome FA pitcher.....but to each their own.
  3. That was an obviously bad decision the moment it was made, alas. I have some quibbles with the Steelers at times.....but he's probably a very good coach (or is it the QB, like in NE?).
  4. There are no guarantees, but you don't judge decisions based on guarantees. Too soon? This article is about first impressions, nothing more or less. I don't get why we are judging the SPs as 38 year olds and 5th starters, rather than if they are good compared to the alternatives. They might be, but neither of those things are relevant.
  5. Why does he have to stay up for good for it to be a good idea? Plenty of good players went back down for a bit after being up? Cave, Rooker, and Garlick are not everyday MLB players. Kiriloff might be.
  6. They've not made the playoffs more than made it..... Wins and losses seem like a better judge of a GM....
  7. Ya. It's so hard to know what the rookies can do given last year..... But I was still surprised.
  8. This might be interesting.... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2017/dec/13/the-bench-myth-why-resting-athletes-may-not-be-as-helpful-as-teams-believe
  9. Why anyone watches any coach or athlete talk about the sport they play is beyond me.... If today's game doesn't convince people pitcher wins are silly.......
  10. I was just going to post this......showing how runs scored is a very deceiving stat......
  11. I'd like to see him penciled in as the guy that starts the 5th or 6th inning for each start that Happ and Shoemaker make.....and plan for him to go 2-3 innings each time. Until they give up on one of those starters......It seemed an odd decision to bring them both in, but they did.
  12. When things go well, Baldelli didn't matter? But now, a week or two in, he does? Seems convenient when trying to make a point about him.
  13. Chief ain't nearly as funny as Fran Drescher....
  14. Do you really have confidence this staff can make even decent OL starters past round 2? I don't. But, they can make good starting DL, LB, WR, S with those later picks. Step 1 is firing the OL coach, he's not shown 1 ounce of ability to develop players. Step two is to hire a scout that can ID OL talent (not easy).
  15. Cave had been meh or worse for some time......Garlik? Not a starter. Kiriloff might be. At some point, this team needs to develop some players from the last four or five drafts.....
  16. Neither garlik or cave is a starter on a good mlb team. Kiriloff should be on this roster.
  17. 100 percent on that second part!
  18. Like giant flags, the national anthem, and endless promos and flyovers for the military? Or just some politics?
  19. It is hard to see them not moving, but the Vikings are still in MN.....
  20. zero. That's the number of OL picked after round 2 by this FO that started more than 1 game for this team. Zero.
  21. Cousins won't make it thru the year w/o another new starting OL........
  22. Now that I realize this is sports.... more likely Gladney is suspended a game or two than cut
  23. A decent chance Gladney is cut soon
