  1. Top 5 bullpen. Mediocre at best starting pitching. We need him to be in relief out of need. Okay Counsell. Come up with a better reason.
  2. I'll give him a break because he's a position player but that was an lol worthy HBP.
  3. How dumb is Dave Roberts putting Muncy back at 3rd? And Muncy "rewards" him right away.
  4. They did that. That's how they got Dudley. The problem was a year later they traded Dudley for nothing and traded the 1st they got with Dudley for Grievis Vasquez.
  5. I wish they would have given him a curtain call after the two scoreless innings. At least then you could've made the argument that it was deserved.
  6. I guess you thought the ignore feature was stupid too.
  7. Thought it was pretty clear. Not have fans give him a standing ovation because he said a bunch of racist and homophobic crap. Because that's exactly what they were clapping for. So "I'll do what I want" applies to you and how you feel they should handle the situation, but does not in fact apply to the fans in attendance. I never said they can't do it. I said they are stupid for doing it. I think people who go out and get hammered at bars are stupid. That doesn't mean I don't think they can do it if they want to.
  8. Thought it was pretty clear. Not have fans give him a standing ovation because he said a bunch of racist and homophobic crap. Because that's exactly what they were clapping for.
  9. Accusing those who support him of "showing enthusiast approval" of his actions is toeing a pretty fine line. He hadn't performed yet, so what would you call it?
  10. No Fine. Don't criticize those who choose to then. I'll do what I want. I'm not violating any rules by doing so.
  11. Showing support for a guy going through a rough time. Classy fan move. The only one's not ready to move on are Twitter warriors. He apologized to the fans and his team, and had one of the most exciting nights of his life ruined by this. Not real sure what other punishment he needs to endure. Showing support would be not booing the guy. Standing ovation is enthusiastic approval.
  12. Social justice world? Warrior
  13. For the Link Report tomorrow make sure to mention that the Rattlers game is on channel 24 in the Milwaukee area.
  14. Are they being raked over the coals too, because I'm not seeing their names in national headlines. It's obviously not that bad or they were fake tweets or something otherwise people would be talking about it. I saw right after the Hader stuff that Trout stuff came out and the most offensive thing I saw there was Trout wanted to eat at Pizza Hut. There might be more since then since I haven't paid attention but I'm guessing not since nobody in the media is saying anything.
  15. I truly feel like a lot of this can be attributed to the disappointment of the way that franchise has been run the last few years. He experienced lots of team success immediately when he came to the Majors, and then the Rays have just sort of given up and shed payroll every year. Like some of the quotes from him in Marc Topkin's article above, he wants to win, and the Rays have made it clear the last few years that that is not their priority. Get him to a contending team with guys like Cain, Yelich etc on it, and I believe Archer will shine. You're right. Hitters will just stop crushing the ball on him because he's on a better team. More likely is he's starting to decline and the Rays missed their chance at getting peak value for him.
  16. All of whom are better than Cole Hamels now. So what's the point of trading prospects and spending a ton of money to get him?
  17. Our top 20 prospects and a genie to grant a wish because that still wouldn't be enough.
  18. Yelich is more durable, is a much better baserunner and is a better fielder unless it just fell off completely this year. Haniger is a clear below average defensive player, I still think Yelich is a positive. Haniger is also a year older than Yelich. He's a better baserunner and that's about it. Haniger and Yelich are pretty much the same defensively. Good in the corners, bad in center. Age doesn't make a difference when it's a year and both are controlled through their primes and Haniger will be cheaper through his prime which gives him extra value that Yelich doesn't have.
  19. deGrom has already had Tommy John. If he has another his career is probably over or at least he likely won't be the same pitcher.
  20. Weird, Haniger is a better hitter, equal defender, under control for the same length and cheaper than Yelich and comes in 11 spots behind him.
  21. I like how you offer one scenario about one player. What if Peralta and Ortiz are mid rotation starters for us? What if we traded Phillips along with a couple of other prospects for a player that's under control longer?
