  1. Part of it is that the SD feeds for 41 and FSN suck so bad but I now hate non HD baseball
  2. So did we just see Fielder get basically intentionally walked by a LH pitcher?
  3. Gallardo isn't the pitcher Beckett is
  4. This is what bothers me the most. Not that he is taking a shot back to defend his team and their policies, but that he words it in a way to make it sound like the Brewers themselves get Millions of dollars to spend on players. It makes the Brewers front office look very bad. The Brewers do get millions to spend on players. They are one of the top recipients of revenue sharing (as they should be).
  5. This isn't the first time Attanasio has said something specifically about the Yankees
  6. Well his ankle did you know explode on him
  7. Beckett is better than people here seem to think. His WARs from the last three seasons:6.5, 5.0, 5.3. He's basically expected to match what he did last year this year. So assuming a 0.5 WAR dropoff by year you have 4.5, 4.0, 3.5, and 3.0 for his value starting in 2011. At $4.5m a win that values of 20.25m, 18m, 15.75m and 13.5m for a total of $67.5m. So it looks like the Sox didn't get any great deal but pitching tends to cost more so they could have gotten a bit of one and they value marginal wins higher than most anyone else so its still in their interest to make sure they have decent pitching.
  8. Of course the reason for that is Macha switched out McGehee. And why McGehee was allowed to hit a righty specialist if your planning on pulling him made no sense.
  9. In honor of opening day Gamestop is offering MLB2K10 downloadable for $2.99http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=76509
  10. So you take the guy who grounds into a bunch of double plays and bat him behind your slowest runner. I just really don't get Macha at times.
  11. I forgot how bad ESPN game calling is
  12. Its been 2 innings and I already miss Cameron
  13. Wolf projects in the 2.5-3.0 win area. That isn't a .500 pitcher.
  14. He is going to Nashville.
  15. How is he being held back for arby issues? Do you really want to see him taking Villanueva's role of pitching when down 2 late? Hawkings and Coffey are better right now, Parra and Narveson aren't going anywhere, Vargas isn't going anywhere and Braddock isn't a LOOGY.
  16. Yes the Astros with maybe 5 above average players in Berkman, Rodriguez, Oswalt, Bourn and Pence. Of course Berkman is on the DL, Oswalt has been so hurt and ineffective that he's been openly talking retirement, and Bourn who might be all BABIP.
  17. That can work if the box allows for audio out separate from HDMI. Not everything allows for that.
  18. Estrada has some talent and it will look a lot better when Butler gets healthy. As for Farris, he's 24. Might as well see if he can do anything.
  19. Yeah unless it has built in speakers you won't get sound. Now if you can set up your cable box to send sound through a different output from your HDMI and you have speakers you could use it will work. But not all will allow that. If you have a VGA out that can be adapted to DVI and that could work as a video out from your cable box (assuming the monitor has enough DVI inputs)
  20. Dye's UZR/150 the last four seasons in RF: -21.5, -21.5, -21.4, -24.5. Dye was below replacement level last year due to his horrendous fielding. This isn't a sudden one year thing.
  21. Assuming $20m/year FA value which isn't bad and is easy to work with and the 20/40/60 rule, Braun would get $4m in 2011, $8m in 2012, and $12m in 2013 and then $20m in 2014 and 2015. So then we have 0+$2m+$3.5m+$10m+$8m for $23.5m. Now we have take off the signing bonus and payments in his early years of $2.3m+.3m+.6m=$3.2m So we're just over $20m before any discounting almost all of that from right at the end of the contract.
  22. One other thing, are you trying to calculate excess value or are you trying to get an idea of what Braun judged his risk to be and was willing to give up for along term guarantee?
  23. I still don't get why they screwed around with Stetter's delivery. He's a LOOGY.
  24. Macha is now saying Gomez at number 2. I don't even know what to say.
