  1. I assume you meant the DH takes away strategy? But I think your terminology of "very small amount" is pretty objective. Having the pitchers bat causes you to handle defense differently (pitch around the 8th hitter or not), offense differently (bunt or not with the pitcher, pinch hit or not for him), who to double switch for if the pitcher spot is coming up, and it allows you to use more bench players. I think overall it affects the strategy more often than just every 9 ABs if you include these other factors. With the DH you can just leave a pitcher in until you want to pull him without weighing when he will bat again or if letting him bat outweighs pulling him for a pinch hitter.
  2. and a lack of fielding instincts.
  3. Seems to me that Boras is just spouting the typical "you really want my guy" nonsense most agents talk.
  4. I would argue that the DH takes strategy away from the game not adds it.
  5. So Kotsay has a really good looking sister?
  6. I love the vampire guy, no wait the wolf guy, or was it the vampire guy no wait it's both, no wait the vampire guy. Mix in making vampires into shiny people and you have Twilight. Next thing we know they will make vegetarian zombies.
  7. Amazon got me by offering $20 off my next videogame purchase if I preordered Gears of War 3 then $10 off when I ordered Skyrim. So Gears was full price and Skyrim will be $40 then my next game $50. Probably Mass Effect 3. Those 3 games will probably be all my game purchases until late next year. Other than the occasional $20 steam purchase.
  8. Is anybody looking forward to Skyrim?
  9. I think we should expect Reyes to be around average or a little below on defense for next year.
  10. Seemed like a lot of backwards K's. I agree though he will be up and down a bit to start with probably a few long adjustment periods throughout the year. He has such a nice swing.
  11. I prefer Gamel only sitting for an occasional start against really tough LHP. I really don't want to see Gamel in a straight platoon.
  12. Where are you getting your WAR from?
  13. You get an outfield assist even if the ball is cut off. Outfield assists seem to be as much a result of bad judgement by the 3B coach as the outfielder.Seems pretty random much like RBI. You don't get them unless the opportunity presents itself.
  14. Making you nuts or just pushing you down the road to nuts faster?
  15. I agree with what you are saying but all a cap will do is put more money in the owners' pockets. To really level the playing field we would have to make the cap somewhere around $100m and there are several teams that still couldn't spend that much without losing money.
  16. You mean just like they did with Kotsay. Oh wait.
  17. The financial benefits from this season are likely to be minimal. Most of the financial gains teams see from making the playoffs is from increased TV revenues. The TV and Radio contracts were locked in a couple years ago for the foreseeable future. Attendance won't drive revenues up to much unless ticket prices are raised quite a bit since attendance has already been pretty good the last few years. Even if we have better revenues we will lose some of that in lost revenue sharing. We will probably start to see diminishing returns.
  18. True. Now stop raining on the parade, Logan. All I'm saying is don't drink the champagne until we know it isn't poisoned.
  19. No it doesn't. You are right. I forgot they had to offer arbitration for picks.
  20. Maybe he will be signed to play RF. If he is signed that is where he should play for us. I hope this isn't true.
  21. I will wait to celebrate until Yuni signs with another team or we sign a different SS. I believe the celebration to be a bit premature. We could still sign him at a reduced price.
  22. Well that answers the question of whether the brewers would get picks for K-Rod.
