Hell yeah I'd trade 14 down to 18.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 8, 2014 -> 06:12 PM) NFL going to 1 pick a day model soon will be the next headline. The Houston Chronicle now says the Texans are asking for a first, second, and third-rounder this year plus a first-rounder in 2015 in exchange for Thursday's No. 1 overall pick. Good luck with that.

Yeah I don't know why I like it so much, but offseasons are very fun for the "what ifs" and projections, and drafts are very condensed versions of that. For 3 days you get lots of different news items rather than 1 or 2 every week for 3 months. If an offseason was condensed down into 3 weeks I may enjoy that more than watching actual games.

Also, I really love Todd Steverson's interviews. I'd love to have a beer with that dude and chat baseball.

Maybe we can find a Rodnon to really turn the universe over.

The "move ahead for Manziel" reason is the only thing I could think of teams trading up for. I think Bears would like to move down but I don't think there are that many people that want to move up in such a deep draft.

Would really like another Rondon.

My prediction: Abreu - 50 HRs and 50 Doubles.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 8, 2014 -> 02:14 PM) Updated numbers, looks like Bernstein will have to edit his article (just like last time), and it looks like now the Abreu love is justified: Abreu 150 wRC+ 1.2 WAR Rizzo 143 wRC+ 1.0 WAR Thanks, I didn't want to click article and was unsure of stats he used.

Ever since Anthony Barr was brought up I feel like that is the type of Emery pick I should anticipate if there?

What a treat it is for us to get to watch this matchup.

So fun with small sample sizes. Rizzo's great series has led to Abreu having an OPS of nearly 100 points better. Abreu's 12 HRs and 11 doubles is really kinda reminding me of a certain player in 98.

Hawks Konerko call was pretty fun.

Alexis play was so great.

Oh my god!!!

No.

Correct thread

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

It's like the new my dog ate my homework, although I do believe a couple of them were true. The only one I've had people tell me was certain was parker/barry.

Reminds me of Aaron Rodgers. I hope Bridgewater kills it as a pro.

So dumb, every year when a player has a poor playoff performance suddenly some player is sleeping with his wife.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ May 7, 2014 -> 05:02 PM) I'm glad the draft is tomorrow. I can't take anymore. This is the time before the draft where every player is the worst ever and going to be the best ever. Seems like sentiment is that the extra time before draft has led to a lot of guys being further ripped apart.

Let's put Konerko at 3b.

Bernstein loves to think he is very smart with stats and routinely pulls incredibly small sample sizes with advanced stats because he is very smart.
