Big Mean Jerk posted:Darvish, Gray, Britton, Garcia, pretty much anyone who could bolster our pitching staff. Our starters have been injury-prone and our bullpen is gassed and full of mediocrity. I'm not fully cubsposting, we'll obviously take the division but the postseason scares the piss out of me now. Would have been nice to grab another starter if some kind. I can't add any content beyond knowing vaguely that your bullpen has several dudes who are killing machines when they're on, but the outcome of this deadline plus your avatar is making me giggle a bit.

Mariners traded a few of their prospects for a setup guy, traded one of their own setup guys for a swing man, and our 2nd best prospect for a pitcher who's already had TJS. Neat.

Hey is anyone else willing to give the Yankees and Red Sox more elite starters with great contracts? Keuchel maybe? It really owns hard, to me.

I'm torn. I love both Archer and Orbit. EDIT: Also Gio Gonzalez is doing a thing right now, going into the 9th vs Miami. Inspector_666 fucked around with this message at 02:05 on Aug 1, 2017 |

Chexoid posted:Shapiro and Atkins are trying to distract the Jays fanbase by making us remember the time Aoki got nailed in the dick by a foul ball at the rogers centre. I hope he still does stuff like this. Even though he was bad I really liked Aoki on the Royals because he was so damned entertaining. He'd do poo poo like swing at a pitch coming straight at his head, or what you posted, or something just ridiculously weird looking like twice a week.

Poque posted:I'm pretty sure Gerson Bautista was invented by a neural network OK so I duct-taped together an RNN to generate player names based on badly scraped Wikipedia data, which gets us up to about 2009-10 or so before I have to do way more table cleanup than I'm willing to for this. (If there's a nice text file containing unicode-friendly versions of all the player names sitting around somewhere, let me know!) The unrelenting whiteness of baseball for much of its history skews the findings a little bit, although not without some fun: quote:Johnny Burg ...but turning the temperature up some allows the network to favor more anomalous results, like so: quote:Jim Harrickgs quote:E"vie Puler I didn't take out any of the disambiguators, so that gets us fun things like there being more than one Crud Bershniff.

N: Yankees win tonight. After a terrible month around the All-Star Break, they've won 9 of their last 11 games. V: That 3-week long rebuild in 2016 was really hard you guys, thanks for all of your support.

Ugh, why did I click that  Hopefully Garcia is only looking at a concussion and not a fractured skull, although I doubt it; I fractured my skull on a far less nasty impact. Meanwhile Moncada apparently needed to be carted off, so hopefully it's not the worst case scenario and we're now 2-for-2 in hot shot young prospects getting called up and shredding their knees.

The Rays are bad again and also left the backup catcher in to throw 35 pitches in the 8th. At least he touched 86 and had a hell of a curveball.
