:
|
| 11:54 |
: WHO IS THIS
|
| 11:54 |
: How’s the weather down there?
|
| 11:54 |
: It’s cold. It’s not snowing. So, same as yesterday
|
| 11:55 |
: am i no longer a thing?
|
| 8:30 |
: Happy Opening Night everyone.
|
| 8:30 |
: And welcome back, baseball.
|
| 8:32 |
: Player/Team is on pace for impossible amount of stat for the year!!!
|
| 8:32 |
: Chris Archer’s ~400 strikeouts seems perfectly attainable.
|
| 8:32 |
: Something I haven’t seem mentioned is that I don’t really see any impact SPs being available at the deadline a la Price/Cueto/Hamels. Am I missing anyone or will it be more difficult for a team to upgrade their pitching during the season than it’s been in recent years?
|
| 8:33 |
: Tyson Ross is pretty good.
|
| 9:08 |
: Hello friends
|
| 9:08 |
: Welcome to Friday baseball chat
|
| 9:08 |
: Do you like April Fool’s jokes?
|
| 9:09 |
: Today’s April fool’s joke was the idea that I would be here on time
|
| 9:09 |
: Which RF puts up more WAR over the next 3 years: Betts or Stanton?
|
| 9:09 |
: I’ll take Stanton by a win or two
|
| 12:01 |
: It’s the final Wednesday before Opening Day.
|
| 12:01 |
: Let’s chat about the 2016 season, what to expect, last minute roster decisions, or whatever other baseball ideas come to your mind.
|
| 12:01 |
: Who are the front-of-the-rotation pitchers most likely to be traded to contenders this season?
|
| 12:02 |
: If Tyson Ross isn’t traded at some point in the next few months, the Padres really screwed up.
|
| 12:02 |
: Beyond him, maybe Sonny Gray if the A’s collapse again?
|
| 12:03 |
: Percent chance Jayson Werth finishes this season a starting outfielder?
|
| 9:00 |
: HI EVERYBODY!!!!
|
| 9:00 |
: Last week of the offseason. Who’s psyched?!?!?
|
| 9:01 |
: Woo Hoo
|
| 9:02 |
: Hey, so you guys know I don’t usually pimp my stuff too hard, but if you’re so inclined to read a music article, I had the chance to write one for Pitchfork last week. http://pitchfork.com/thepitch/1068-why-a-tribe-called-quests-phife-dawg-was-sports-fans-favorite-rapper/
|
| 9:02 |
: After dark? I’m on the east coast, and it isn’t even dark yet.
|
| 9:02 |
: It is now, sucka.
|
| 11:49 |
: Heyyo! Chat begins at noon. Soundtrack: Mogwai — Mogwai Young Team
|
| 12:02 |
: Alright, let’s do this
|
| 12:03 |
: Is Joey Votto’s new uh…batting stance…the best thing ever?
|
| 12:03 |
: Yes, yes it is.
|
| 12:04 |
:
|
| 12:04 |
: “I’m thinking.” is the greatest response he could’ve possibly given. I love the idea that he thinks so hard he has to bend over
|
| 9:05 |
: Hello friends
|
| 9:05 |
: Welcome to baseball chat
|
| 9:06 |
: To think, one week from now, we will finally still have spring training
|
| 9:06 |
: Also, it feels weird to me that on Sunday, April 3, we’ll have three home openers, and one spring-training contest
|
| 9:07 |
: Anyway. Chatting!
|
| 9:07 |
: Please tell me the D’Backs have a Plato and Aristotle coming through the pipeline as well!
|
| 1:22 |
: dedicated to the baby child, or his song dedicated to me I guess.
|
| 12:00 |
: Masterson gonna pitch in majors this year, and will he have any value at all?
|
| 12:00 |
: Doubt it.
|
| 12:00 |
: Floyd or Sanchez get the 5th spot? I can see arguments for both
|
| 12:01 |
: Sanchez. If you put him back in the pen one more time it’s the last time.
|
| 12:01 |
: How nervous are you about Grandal’s injury?
|
| 12:04 |
: Alright, let’s do some chatting.
|
| 12:04 |
: The Positional Power Rankings are underway, we’re 10 days from the start of the season, and we’re probably about to see some contract extensions announced in the next week.
|
| 12:04 |
: So plenty to talk about.
|
| 12:04 |
: Jeff and Paul laughed at my questions about Joe Kelly potentially putting it together this year and having a breakthrough. Will you do anything other than laugh at this notion? Is it really so absurd to think Joey might reach his potential?
|
| 12:05 |
: It’s not absurd at all. The stuff is good, the peripherals are good. He won’t be an ace, but he could very well be a perfectly capable mid-rotation starter.
|
| 12:05 |
: Any chance Tyler White ends up with 450 AB’s this year?
|
| 9:02 |
: Hi everybody!
|
| 9:03 |
: Paul – I just swapped Odorizzi for Puig (same $ values). I have pitching depth, but Odorizzi was cheap and prime keeper material. Tell me that was (at least a little) smart?
|
| 9:03 |
: I like it. I like Odorizzi, but I’m not in love with him.
|
| 9:04 |
: Good move. Puig could be a top 12 talent, not Odorizzi
|
| 9:05 |
: 6×6 Keeper League (OBP replaces average+BB)….we get to keep 4. Who do you leave out in this list: Altuve, Machado, Sale, Fernandez, Springer?
|
| 9:05 |
: Gotta be Springer.
