  1. This post is way more petulant and whiny than anything he said.
  2. If it makes you feel better, he got angry too.
  3. Somebody has to DH. There’s not a lot of options. Him or Mancini.
  4. Dubon is only there as a defensive replacement. He didn’t start in the DS when Verlander pitched, he wasn’t going to start today.
  5. More concisely stated.
  6. To be fair to Colt, that’s ignoring the context of replacing essentially his entire national championship winning, NFL playing OL between his freshman and sophomore years. It was a stupid idea at the time, and it only looked worse in hindsight.
  7. Let’s not forget the contingent who wanted to replace Colt with John Chiles.
  8. You’re right in the last paragraph about the reason for 162 games, but it’s irrelevant to the playoffs at this point. If they prioritized truly measuring which team was best, they’d go back to 2 divisions and an LCS only format for the playoffs (I’d say World Series only like in the real old days, but there’s just too many teams now for that to really be fair, especially with unbalanced scheduling). With that large a sample size, you really shouldn’t have 6 playoff teams to begin with. But the playoffs aren’t about the good of the sport, they’re about money. I wonder how upsets impact that-that’s where it will matter.
  9. How do you think?
  10. And that’s why.
  11. Not if you’re doing it right. I’ve always valued this board for everything BUT that. I never post on game threads, haven’t even checked one during a game in years. They’re the worst.
  12. And yet, we’ve outscored opponents 69-20 in the 3rd quarter. Guess it takes awhile for those halftime adjustments to kick in.
  13. But Sark DID figure it out to a large extent. Ewers missed wildly on some open deep balls he normally hits, he missed a couple of wide open reads, and, of course, there was the Cain drop (not his fault).
  14. After being so adamant that it was targeting-he said something like it was the clearest example he’d ever seen-to then kind of, sort of, maybe, meekly retract it on the SAME ANGLE was pretty lame.
  15. His commentary is not bad. His vision evidently is.
  16. Well your eyes are slightly better than RG3’s, I guess, but I’d recommend an appointment with an optometrist.
  17. I tend to think Pena committed so many errors largely for the same reason Jeter committed so few: range (or lack of it). He gets to a lot of balls that most players-including Correa-can’t. That’s something that defensive metrics will value. That said, Correa at 1B is still obviously a silly idea.
  18. Without looking it up, haven’t they allowed 1 run in like 8.2 innings?
  19. Verlander has 4 playoff starts against the Yankees with Houston: 3-1, 29.2 IP, 2.16 ERA You might want to inform them that he sucks, they don't seem to have realized it.
  20. I'm not sure that's accurate anymore. It seems he's made some adjustments after his midseason slump. Is the worst version of Jeremy Peña behind us? - The Crawfish Boxes
  21. A lot better if you aren't showering twice everyday, according to experts.
  22. I'd be more impressed if he could get them to run block.
  23. There’s more to being a great QB than arm talent. You’d have probably drafted Ryan Leaf over Peyton.
