Especially if I was given nice odds. But I wouldn't bet a lot. I've been the low man on Harper all along, and I would say maybe 20% for Sox (which is up from the 0.0% a month ago). I do think the Yankees are out now and it's a 4 team race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But apparently this guy is a reporter? Merkin and Holmes follow him. I know this was last week and not today, but I'm surprised this isn't a bigger deal to some people on here.

I am pretty sure if that was true, my days of being a White Sox fan would be OVA. The Sox and other businesses screw people over anyway. I'll take those two and wave my championship banner proudly.

Enough with making up fake news not in green already. The fact that he prefaced it with "not to be that guy" and repeated the TIFWIW thing twice makes it semi believable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like Abreu so we're not really arguing about much here but he'd be worth a helluva lot more if his last 2 season were like Martinez'. I also made a mistake on JD's OPS in that 4 yrs. Sorry about that. And yes JD has been amazing the last two years. My only point was that when he was a free agent at the end of the 2017 season it was a reasonable position to say that 2017 was an outlier and he was more likely to regress to the 2014-2016 JD...which was a darn good hitter but non-elite. I'm not sure what to make of his 2018 season...I'm not sure what the research is on this...but it seems like a very good hitter, when surrounded by a lineup of good hitters, will be better. Pitcher exhaustion or synergy or something. I hope/believe it's true...if Moncada is the only "dangerous" hitter in your lineup...the pitcher can bear down and get him out. But if you have Moncada/Madrigal/Harper/Abreu/Jimenez/Robert/Collins/Palka/Anderson...do they all make each other better? The dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
