    I look forward to seeing what Parmel, er, Vargas will do with a full season.
  2. jimmer
    That rotation makes me cry. As of now, I have zero faith in any of them, even May (who I had faith in until Ryan decided to ruin him).
  3. jimmer
    I seem to remember reading a lot of comments towards the end of the 2015 season, and early in that offseason, that Ryan's rebuild was done and it was now time for the parades to start in 2016 and beyond. Now you say we need to commit to a rebuild? I'm so confused ;-)
  4. jimmer
    Yeah, that'd be horrible. Worse than Colon winning Cy Young in 2005.

    As much of a fan I am of Dozier (since before most seemed to be even paying attention to him) he's not even the top candidate for MVP from his own position. That distinction belongs to Altuve (with Cano POSSIBLY #2 at 2B). Even if we were close to making the playoffs, or had made the playoffs, I doubt he'd be mentioned alongside Trout, Betts, Donaldson, Altuve or Machado. Dozier was a top 10 AL player and we can be happy for him based on that.

    Sarcasm?

    If excitement in offense is judged by HRs only, yeah. When a young top notch power prospect is a horrible defender at any corner spot on the field, and his bat is the only redeeming quality in his game, a wRC+ of 107 (or OPS+ of 110 if one prefers) is quite a disappointment, regardless of the HRs.

    SO many choices...
  9. jimmer
    He means Deolis Guerra, the supposed pitching jewel we got for Johan Santana, who now pitches for the Angels.
  10. jimmer
    Well, I never said he won't finish in the top 10. That could happen. Colon won CY Young in 2005, while Santana finished a distant 3rd for goodness sakes. Anything can happen with these writers.
  11. jimmer
    I wouldn't be surprised if more deserving players get passed over by the writers and he gets some votes. Not for 1st, 2nd or 3rd, but maybe other spots (probably by Boston writers, at least).
  12. jimmer
    I agree with the OP, I wouldn't have Ortiz in the top 10 for MVP, because defense counts. He deserves the Silver Slugger for DH, though.
  13. jimmer
    Cody, I agree with your 'should' wins and your 'will' wins.
  14. jimmer
    FTFY

    AL Ranks for rotation: 15th in FIP 15th in Ks 13th in IP 14th in HR/9 15th in BAA 15th in QS 15th in OBP against 15th in SLG% against
  16. jimmer
    Kris Bryant is a very good defender at multiple positions and he's a stud on offense. He's also going to be NL MVP.
  17. jimmer
    Probably won't announce until the Indians are out of the playoffs.
  18. jimmer
    That is horrible. If you don't mind my asking, did they give a reason?
  19. jimmer
    I have to commit actual crimes to get fired like disclose classified information on purpose or accident.
  20. jimmer
    Theo has been lucky. It's all been luck. Any GM could have done what he did with the Red Sox and now the Cubs :-)
  21. jimmer
    we are quite a long way from being a competitive team. Going to take time to build this team right and fix all the issues in order to make this a true playoff contender. We shouldnt want a patchwork job done. And yes, while its true not even the best manager would have made this team a contender, molitor couldnt manage this team to 60 wins this year.
  22. jimmer
    pup portage?
  23. jimmer
    probably more of a Zima guy.
  24. jimmer
    I'd love to give you the info you asked for but unfortunately, right now, Fangraphs isn't showing season splits for defense. Batting and pitching, yes, but not defense. I do know the team DRS kept going higher in the negative, but I believe it slowed (while still being negative)
  25. jimmer
    That would be horrible, IMO. Giving an MVP to someone for sentimental reasons when there are many players more deserving. He's not even the most deserving on his own team.
