Around Baseball 2015 Edition

I'm surprised anyone takes him serious anymore. The post above reads like a ten year old wrote it.

The general consensus is he is around that age.

A little late on this but LOL at the Reds manager.

I envisioned the Tigers as the best trade candidate for Kimbrel/Upton... but tough to complain with what we pulled off

 

[Hawk]

Yep, it's interesting to wonder, but I'm not complaining.

We can still trade them our current closer and get a top 50 prospect

it's also really lame to "protest" a season.

It's also really lame to trade Heyward.

 

[thewupk]

Heyward will eventually hit but he is a good case study in how WAR is overvalued in today's baseball.

Explain how it's a good case study?

Is there any way we could trade for Alex Guerrero? I think the Dodgers signed him for $28 million for 4 years. That means that last season he got paid $7 million for playing at Albuquerque and this year he plays very sparingly. He already has four home runs this year in about 20 at bats with only one s/o and he had monster stats in Cuba. What would it take to get him?

He doesn't fit our profile of a pitcher.

Plus, I'm not certain we'd be able to flip for hi a top 50... Perhaps a top 75 but that's only if Seitzer can work his magic

Zombie Expos announcers literally just used the "multi-hit games" line to disparage Heyward.

And irrespective of that Heyward dig, they're ****ing terrible, by the way—like, nigh unlistenable.

Ray Knight is dark and full of of terrors.

Nats announcers certainly the worst, especially Bob.

Wrong as usual.

 

[Heyward]

NO ONE but YOU acted like that. No one. No. One.

I was cool with the trade especially if he wouldnt re-up some of the others on here, well, different story going.

WAR puts too much emphasis on defense.

It's good to have talent, and positional talent is pretty thin for us, but it doesn't seem likely we'd go after a middle infielder.

I was thinking more like third base or outfield. He has played third in Cuba and started at third today for the Dodgers. The Dodgers have also mentioned him for the outfield. I don't know how he is defensively, but check out his offensive stats.
