  1. Could be worse. We could have lost our old QB to season ending surgery, and then traded our first for a safety, slot corner....I like the player Pittsburgh got, but you cannot do that with an injured, old, QB. Maybe they want to trade for Kirk?
  2. He's a league average pitcher.... What are people expecting that they think he's bad?
  3. He pretty much has a negative WPA every year of his career....
  4. I think people are forgetting to aspect.... He's never healthy for a full year.
  5. Ya, it was too late to edit it when I decided that was silly....
  6. Doesn't he have to accept or reject it before getting offers? If I'm him, I take it for sure. That's not much less than he'd get in a two year deal.
  7. A three year deal for Pineda? Has he ever pitched a full season? He'll miss at least forty games next year.... Then he'll get hurt one year.
  8. Apparently he was pressured on sixty percent of his drop backs. That's very, very, very bad.
  9. Agreed.... Do people expect to find three better than mid? Not one, not two, three? People are tired of him, but look at the actual alternatives. Again, if they decide to move on, fine. But good luck acquiring three better starters in one off season.
  10. It's possible. Do we know they get hurt more? Other than pitchers who may be reaching the current limits of the body by thing so hard?
  11. They need to clean house if they miss the playoffs again. Blow it up.
  12. The default in baseball for years was that walks were weak by the hitter, that sacrifice bunts were awesome, that teams should play small ball and not strikeout, that players could party and not get much sleep, that off season workouts were unnecessary...... Rookies shouldn't play much, players should earn it, beanballs were good....
  13. One is a long time veteran who should know better. The other was not established at all, and was trying to make it. That's one of the differences for me. But it's cool you assumed why people feel the way they do.
  14. Gibson is better than Wacha. I was replying to people that side Gibson was bad, and they should acquire better pitchers. Why would any team pay for a number five starter, if they have a good minor league system?
  15. WPA tells a very different story. And baserunnung and defense. No one said he was the biggest disappointment. I didn't say cut him. I said they need the money next year and shouldn't bring him back.
  16. Need three. Has any team ever added three good, new, starting pitchers in one off season?
  17. Do people really think he didn't care if they won? Really? Also, I'm 100% sure the FO helps with the lineup, and that they are in constant communication about bullpen usage.
  18. I do agree they should be doing something different, but I don't see many late QBs that look good right now....
  19. You are comparing strike outs and errors? Also, my opinion of Schoop is based on his low impact year, not just one game. Keep him to platoon in the playoffs? Sure. But don't bring him back next year
  20. AL starting pitchers with at least seventy innings....Gibson was 43rd in ERA. How many better pitchers will be available this off season? The twins need at least two, if not three, starters....
  21. So, a playoff team should have punted on QB going into the draft? That's your argument? And punted on the next year or two, most likely?
  22. I'm done with Schoop after the year. They need the money anyway.
  23. He started the year weak from E Coli he got trying to help people less fortunate. When he got strong again, he was getting good again. Then he got sick again, and isn't recovered. It's hard to figure out what he'll be like next year when healthy. I'm ok with whatever they decide, but I don't think people realize how bad pitching is in the AL. Gibson was actually not bad.... When compared to his peers. Not great, either
