  1. I have that same problem, which is fascinating given more people own Android....
  2. I bet he gets at least two years, at least twelve million.
  3. Just bench eiflin already.
  4. Him being bad this year was very predictable. Championship teams don't settle for multiple field goals on goal to go against terrible teams..... Everything about this team is just above average
  5. I'm pretty surprised he got fired, and not just ....something else. Not sure what something else, but something else. Have they apologized to the writer for calling her a liar yet? edit: nm, I read their statement....
  6. some of them are pretty good....but it's something to talk about.
  7. I only skimmed this....so I'm not sure how BIG the effect is... https://blogs.fangraphs.com/is-home-field-advantage-becoming-endangered/ There are a few other links....I think it is small, but meaningful, especially because umpires are more likely to give the home team an advantage at important parts of the game......
  8. Perez has been terrible for two years now, why would anyone want him back?
  9. I agree, but I tried to get a different answer..... mike sixel 2:17 I know players usually take the most money, but should Jason Castro take a bit less to stay in MN, since he'll likely play less than elsewhere, and keep his body more healthy? Or is that 100% backward, and he should go where he plays more and gets more money? Craig Edwards 2:17 I think he would probably just like to play more and get paid more and presumably the team that offers him the most money plans to do so. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/craig-edwards-fangraphs-chat-10-24-2019/
  10. We need to upgrade our plan, which usually means we can get a deal on a new phone......and my wife might add a hot spot device (yes, she can use her phone, but she is basically making in person sales calls most days, and a dedicated hot spot would help her for reasons)...... So, what phone do you have/like/not like, and why? I'm passing on worrying about 5g for now......and my family is half android half apple.....Currently have an S7.
  11. That would be an utter failure by the Twins. No way it's that bad. No way.
  12. Agree. But if they roll the dice on a different veteran, with the plan for Rortverdt and, or, Jeffers, to be up at some point, I'm ok with that. Not thrilled, but ok.
  13. I have no idea what this means. The Phillies lost most of their rotation to injury this year. The Astros have three highly paid players.... The Yankees also have highly paid players. The dodgers too. So do the Nationals.
  14. Did you read the thread? Did you find his website, if he has one? Or are you just assuming he's got an agenda?
  15. It should be a blowout.
  16. If you were born in the US, and are a hitter, you have a better strike zone than if you were born outside the US.
  17. angels. I think they sign Cole w/o this move. twins, because if they are spending that much, why not just sign 3-5 very good to great players and keep their two hot prospects?
  18. Dobnak is so good he gets paid twice! * Those number jibe with what I've seen elsewhere, give or take....I'd really like an experienced catcher behind Garver also. * I think, and hopefully you see this as humor.....
  19. Agreed on all of this, which is why I'm in on not bringing Cron back.....Cruz is so good that he partly makes up for the drop off in starting a rookie in place of Cron, then next year if Cruz is gone (or at least not as good) that rookie is no longer a rookie..... And I can't see how they keep Rosario around, not with as many minor league OFers as they have, not at what arbitration salaries will require as time goes on. Probably next year, but not after that I'd guess.
  20. what if it takes four years? I agree there is no chance they sign Cole, and I bet the Nats extend Strasburg.
  21. when he first appeared, or came up to stay and star? Those are two very different things.....
  22. Had the world series on last night.... My wife looked up from her book and asked how anyone can watch baseball, it's so boring! I pretty much can't watch any game in any sport start to finish anymore, so maybe this comes from there, but she's right. There is a huge amount of time nothing happens. Which for some is the beauty, but how many of you really watch all the time the game is on? And you're the serious fans.....
  23. I'm playing in a tournament on Saturday, maybe I'll try that a few times.... Can't get much worse off the tee
