    Just call a spade a spade. We aren't 0-3 due to the umps or the torpedo bats. We just should be thankful that these losses only count as one each.
  2. Simba2020
    I think way too much is being made out of the bats. Pretty sure Judge isn't using one and he's doing ok. Don't think Goldy is using one, etc. More ballpark and lousy pitching IMO. However if more teams start using them and the homers are flying out for everyone, I suspect MLB would outlaw them.

    Don't want to overreact and I tend to be more of the glass half empty type, but I had zero confidence in this staff from the start and thought 78 wins sounded about right.
  4. Simba2020
    another herculean effort, eh jeff
  5. Simba2020
    20-6, both teams need to work on their PATs.
  6. Simba2020
    I miss Wei-Chung Wang.
  7. Simba2020
    Did they come up with the mercy rule during the offseason?
  8. Simba2020
    I hate responding to such a ridiculous discussion but as a numbers guy, it is warranted. First off, 1998 seems like an aberration on typical injury levels. But ignoring that factor, how one can compare one single season of salary lost to 18 seasons of salary lost and claim some massive increase is beyond comprehension. I would suspect 18 seasons of data would likely be a much bigger number than one, but that's just me. Let's look at 2001 versus 2015. The cost of replacing injured players rose 106% from $337M to $695 million. But player salaries rose over 86% in that same time frame. So not much of a difference. I do think teams are much more willing to IL somebody today than in the past as they look to protect their large investments but it's not like it's some massive difference that is being alleged. It's also almost certainly tied to increased TJ surgeries. Of course what any of this has to do with practice is a whole other matter.

    Since the Mets signed him two days ago, probably not an option. I probably would have preferred Rae over this guy anyway.
  10. Simba2020
    Count me in the won't miss Williams camp as well. With his consistently lousy control he was too often bordering on the brink of disaster. I don't think he will age well at all. Should be fine if he can handle the pressures of New York next year but I sure wouldn't want to be the team giving him the big contract.
  11. Simba2020
    Yeah I never got that one. He had one good playoff series but an overall average under .150.
  12. Simba2020
    Agreed, but it's annoyed me all season.
  13. Simba2020
    He rarely does.
  14. Simba2020
    The Royals rarely make the playoffs but have gone 24-9 when they have. Then you have the Brewers, Twins and Orioles who are a collective 2 for their last 43. How is this even possible?
  15. Simba2020
    3 strikeouts, popup to 1st, couple of grounders to third, comebacker to the pitcher. Yeah, hammered.
  16. Simba2020
    I don't believe in the 3 times through either when a pitcher is rolling at the time. Too many dumb rules in baseball. Can't possibly use the eye test for anything.
  17. Simba2020
    Disagree. No reason to take out a pitcher after 4 and 68 pitchers after retiring 9 straight. Maybe those balls aren't even hit in the first place off of Freddy. Somebody reaches, I don't question it.
  18. Simba2020
    And this is why the tickets were so cheap.
  19. Simba2020
    I've been calling the Packers losers for years because they find so many creative ways to lose in the playoffs. Maybe it's just a Wisconsin thing.
  20. Simba2020
    He had retired 9 in a row. Going beyond four innings is not working him deep. Strongly disagree with the decision.
  21. Simba2020
    Freddy actually looked good the last couple of innings and then you pull him. I just don't understand some times.
  22. Simba2020
    Why did Frelick dive there? Trying to kill himself?
  23. Simba2020
    True. Had a 1.178 OPS too in a very small sample size versus Severino.
  24. Simba2020
    Erceg with the save. Gave up on him just when he was on the verge of making it.
  25. Simba2020
    And then there's the tank.
