  1. How have the AAA players they've used worked out? Most have negative WAR. Is that better?
  2. I miss the funny gamethreads....
  3. The Yankees have two less wins than the Twins, and are at home..... Do I think it is impossible there is some kind of psychology in play? No. Do I believe that is the explanation? No. Either way, terrible game so far for the Twins. Offense. Defense. Pitching. Yuck.
  4. I was. They're from Canada!* Note, I think none of them are from Canada....
  5. The Yankees have had almost no losing seasons.... Maybe none, in that time. They beat everyone.
  6. I don't for one minute think the Twins are afraid of the Yankees. They are just playing badly. Happens.
  7. I can't believe the Yankees are above 500.... They have more WAR on the IL than some teams will get all year. It's like magic.
  8. Looking at the standings, there aren't many sure fire sellers that have a pitcher you'd want right now.....that will change as teams around .500 fall off, and realize they are sellers.
  9. He's going to be the 1B/DH/OF of the future, unless they have to move Sano to 1B/DH sooner than planned. IMO.
  10. I'm surprised, I thought they would do that yesterday.......that will change things, once they update projected innings for sure. I'm guessing 2 wins, maybe 3.* *not that Kluber is worth 3 WAR in half a year, but remember, the guys replacing him might put up negative WAR....
  11. Wow. What a week! Now I really wish I had more..... Stupid house down payment...
  12. I'm not sure people read Brock's post carefully. The Diamondbacks are the most shocking team for me.
  13. Because sellers aren't selling yet, unless decades of history are about to be broken, which is possible. But likely?
  14. No one is getting traded until June, alas. Pitching of all kinds would be welcome. Until then, I don't have much confidence in the minors providing a lot of help. So, if the FO does make a move in the next few days, and it works, I'll be impressed.
  15. Man, my 21 year old hated that episode! For all the reasons the internet did.
  16. It's a great strategy, IF you are willing to trade prospects for proven MLB pitchers, and sign good FAs. I've never understood your mocking tone of "king Theo"......he literally led two teams to WS championships.
  17. It's hard to believe how many games the Yankees have won, even with enough injuries that they've lost more projected WAR than some teams will have by the end of the year (once they lose it all as the weeks/months go by for the currently hurt players). That said, I'm glad, for the Twins, that they are catching them while most of those players are still hurt. I like their odds more this way. As for today, I continue to be impressed by Berrios. And Polanco. And have never understood the distaste for Castro ( a signing I longed for, and eventually got).
  18. I'm reaching further into the minors for SP help than those three......I think.
  19. Interesting. Lewis is probably a SS, and Kiriloff a 1B/DH/sometime OF.....I'd think most would want the SS.
  20. Interesting. My tv is one of the last plasma tvs....and we get a good bit of banding on black scenes, I always figured it was the tv......
  21. Lots of typos. sigh. My phone's auto correct, sigh.....sorry about that.
  22. One article on the strategy: https://www.tor.com/2019/04/30/breaking-down-the-battle-of-winterfell-from-a-military-perspective/
