  1. Not a lot of good 26 year olds available
  2. You only need to get to 2 to beat Skeens.
  3. Not even close. These read like Monroe and inge for Pujols
  4. No they dont. They did in 1995, not today. If your bad you dont care about filling those innings well. And 4a guys you have your own stable so no reasons to add someone else's. Everyone would rather have a lottery ticket and that's exactly what teams took last year at the deadline. Guys like Ennis, Jung have little value. They can be traded but it would be for like a blah bullpen arm.
  5. Super pumped when I pulled a 10/10 purple refractor of a series 2 standard pack at target. Even better it was a tiger. It was Alex Cobb
  6. Drafting one player you've never seen play over another play you've never seen play
  7. I was in the right field ones
  8. That's jsut silly. Everybody and thier mother would do that deal.
  9. Portland - It seems like there is a BGH here and people have romanticized Portland as a baseball town, since baseball does have an appeal to more intellectual folks. But has minor league baseball ever thrived in Portland? Plus, the politics in Portland is a nightmare. Someone isn't up on their current events. The legislature just passed a bill for $800 million in bonds for the stadium
  10. Cause it's a big overpay
  11. Its Bowden, there is a reason he ain't a GM anymore
  12. you are allowed to do it two years in a row
  13. I imagine this draft will likely be pitching heavy.
  14. It's boston they never have a payroll problem and there is about one expensive player available this offseason
  15. In th nba over the last 20 years about 27 percent of lottery players have made an all star team. Where 55 percent of NFL players taken in top 10 have made a pro bowl. Now obviously its not an apple to apples comparison but gives you an idea of the difference. And nobody is saying you cant find talent in the later round, in fact i specifically said in my first post 'of course there are exceptions' so it wasn't just dismissed like you did. But the data is clear in a system designed to spread out talent, a draft, that the NBA does a poor job as a whole of identifying a top tier talent and developing it and its why teams get stuck in that 6-12 range of the draft for years. Where as in somewhere like teh NFL a good draft and the ability to add through FA (something the NBA lacks) can make a turnaround quicker. In my opinion its the biggest problem the NBA has, that teams that are bad remain bad for a lot of years because the league is so bad especially in picks 5-12 of creating stars to make a franchise better and you end up with a bunch of Ivys and Asurs that everybody here would trade for a half-way decent player.
  16. Man I'm gonna laugh hard if Bregman walks. Red Sox persued him, got him for a year and blew up to team
  17. It's the nba's biggest problem. Pick six lands you a back end rotation guy.
  18. no rush to fill that spot just to fill it
  19. Thery arent giving up a top prospect for another left handed hitting corner outfielder
  20. Well at least it's not skubal
  21. Why would a future ticket buyer care what someone did with the seat today? And the number one thing in ticket sales has been and always will be winning. Not promotions, not energy in a stadium not wether it looks open or not. It's all about wining.
  22. Expect they were alreayd bought. Why does the team care if anyone shows up or not. They got the money.
  23. Who is president. Not sure what someone can promote him to. Super president?
  24. This. Yankees have it except for playoffs. It's a zero issue and this article is just someone who isn't up to date.
  25. It is not..and that's from someone who knows who runs it
