Only 12 GB of the wildcard. That's much less than 1 game per day.

Stat head.

ADA with yet another brain fart to start this one. I am convinced there is nothing up there at this point.

Feed unbearable for anyone else?

He'd better start planning for his own future...

Do not know why he will not be part of it.

That makes it all the greater a gesture

So if there is 30 teams and he is about 90th, that is a pretty solid #3 or 4 starter, which is what they need him to be. You should try to watch a game and just enjoy it instead of having to go reference Fangraphs to see if they can explain to you what you watched.

Considering nobody's reading this thread anyway, a random thought: how dumb was it for the Tigers to give Cabrera a new contract last offseason, considering his contract expired after 2015? His value was hardly going to rise. The only thing it could really do is decline, and it has quite a bit. wRC+ of 138 this year compared to 191 last year. His value would actually be hurt worse but he's benefited by moving from being a liability at 3B to slightly plus at 1B. A decent amount of it is driven by a probably unlucky HR/FB% but still, that contract is gonna start hurting big, and soon. It's all the more bizarre when they moved Fister partly to clear money.

Well no, because a lot of pitchers who are not qualified have provided a lot more value than Danks.

 

I don't have to reference Fangraphs to see if they can explain what I just watched, I use it to supplement and improve my knowledge. I enjoy both the game itself and reading about the game. On the flipside, a lot of people could do with reading a bit about advanced statistics, because there were quite a few on here talking about how Danks was back earlier this year just because his ERA was under 4.

lol Hawk

They'll just trade him to Texas for someone much younger.

You guys need to lay off this bulls***.

Still so mad at the Rangers for that

Abreu is fun.

Could you imagine if Robin let a guy like Abreu beat him 3 times in 12 innings?
