  1. That doesn't change the fact they were able to make the investment and beat out other competitors.
  2. What's your point? What criteria makes Tampa a more likely organization to acquire Japanese talent than Milwaukee?
  3. I think this is false, or at least overstated. What about Akinori Iwamura's huge 3 year, 7.7 million dollar contract that he inked with the big market Tampa Bay Rays? Yes, it'll be harder. Scouting + possible posting fee + contract can add up, especially considering the unknown nature of the foreign imports, very hit or miss. But its not impossible.
  4. Link that he won't be offered arby? It doesn't even matter, because if we sign him or any other type A free agent now, we lose our pick. He made $7.5 million last season, so he would be awarded a minimum of $6 million in arbitration. The Padres had given him a $4 million offer, but withdrew it because they don't want to pay him even that. It'd be pretty surprising if they offered him arbitration after that decision.
  5. 66-87 record and 4.23 ERA (which are both fine measures if they were earned in relief) A pitching win is never a fine measure. And relievers ERA's are tied a little more into their fellow pitchers with inherited runners being credited to the previous pitcher, so it makes an already weak stat (at predicting future preformance) a bit weaker.
  6. Yeah, would be kind of a weird move. Only thing that might make him more attractive than an American middle reliever is he might make it easier to make a play on Japanese free agents in the next year or two while he's with the club.
  7. Creed's "we should go hang out by the quarry and throw things down it" was amazing.
  8. C, absolutely hands down. The girl of my dreams is a girl who, beside her other great qualities, also gets to select one of these options and chooses E.
  9. He'll demand an opt-out clause way before he'd take ~$40 less guaranteed.
  10. If he can play a solid CF and Cubs pick up some $, I'd be for it. Two sizeable ifs though.
  11. Funny - I took a break from studying for my finance test to read this transcript. What a beautiful segway back to my textbook.
  12. Those aren't that bad. Braun was .987 at home and .795 away. Fenway's not that great a hitters park.
  13. Solution: Demand from the Yankees that he would have the ability to opt out of his contract after 4 years.
  14. No maybe we don't have 2 guys rated in the top 20 prospects anymore but I don't remember when we have had arguably this many in the top 40-150. Sure they won't all pan out but unlike other years, this past year I had to check out the stats on every roster daily(other than Nashville) because every team had 2-5 players that I truly had to follow. This is true. No longer are 3 or 4 individual player pages bookmarked, but the baseballreference organizational overview page is the bookmark. There's so many to follow.
  15. I will be in Green Bay over Thanksgiving, and would stay an extra day if I can find some tickets to the Packer game. Might as well ask here first. Looking for 2+.
  16. I have an almost too good to be true type attitude about our current prospects. And then we beat to death each players weakness, which contributes to a unenthusiastic view of our current system. I mean, didn't we have like 5 guys with an OPS in the top 10 of the Southern League at one point this year? Salome and Gamel finished first and third. Brantley slid off a bit and then was traded, and Escobar slipped off a bit as well. I look at that and think, "yeah, right" and assume something unrealistic is going on - like park factors or luck over a small sample. I compare it to our current major leaguers' performance at that level and my brain assumes something has changed that allows our current prospects to do so well - "They can't be better than what we have now," says my brain. But maybe they are. Salome does not get gushed over enough here, for one. He's a catcher, aged 22, who led the Southern League in OPS.
  17. Which is great. But if he can handle 2B, he'd be an even better prospect compared to his peers at that position.
  18. That's too perfect. It would never happen. I hope DM doesn't shy away from bigger changes like that if it improves the team, just because he doesn't want to make big changes to a playoff team.
  19. Eh, why not? He'd be throwing in ST anyway.
  20. I'm happy for Halloween this year I went as Ken Tremendous - in the future, nobody would have known who I was!
  21. "Cat problem" is redundant.
  22. Oof. Maybe I'll order a shirt in remembrance.
  23. Then easily player A.
  24. I'll take it a step further, Hawing! Also, awesome Guy Smiley quote:
