I think it's appropriate to use thoughts and prayers when someone dies from an accident versus, say... someone shooting up a building when reasonable measures would have stopped it. Edit: I had a coworker 10 years ago lose his stepdaughter in an airplane accident. They were going to go skydiving and the engines froze up. Small planes are kind of death traps

TheFlyingLlama posted:the bat is the big thing. Looking at his career stats, you can totally 100% argue that he's a slightly above average hitter at a bat first postion, or you can see a relatively young hitter whose power numbers should get better once he leaves Kauffman Stadium. Hosmer's power numbers are worse away than at home. Any GM who looks at stats is gonna see that. Pancakes posted:gently caress the DH. Ah yes, his 11 hits and 2 home runs surely was a game changer! seiferguy fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Nov 10, 2017 |

TheFlyingLlama posted:tbh it's not supposed to convince the GM, but the owner. Those kinds of stats don't have to be true, just have to seem true Depends on the team, really. Seattle needs a 1st basemen and I wouldn't mind Hosmer, since lefty batters tend to do better in Safeco. But I don't think he's worth the $100m+ salary.

Edgar is almost close to being off the ballot so he really should be favored over newer guys. I'm just annoyed he's getting overlooked for being in a "weak position" while I know Mariano is gonna be 1st ballot for being the best at an arguably weaker position.

Mariners should bring back Ichiro as their 4th OF, sign Darvish and Ohtani. If Kuma makes the team, that's 4 star NPB players right there!

Paul Zuvella posted:If a pitcher leaves the mound, but doesnt leave the game (like if he goes to RF), can he go back to pitching again later in the game? Yeah it's legal. I wanna say a couple of managers have thrown a pitcher in the outfield for an inning or so for favorable match ups then brought them back in. But as intruder said, that's really risking an injury.

I honestly wonder if #11 being retired is a sticking point for Ohtani picking Seattle. I bet Edgar would allow him to wear it, though.

Popete posted:I can barely remember the handful of signs in rec ball, being a catcher would suck. In my amateur league I was asked to be 3rd base coach which meant I had to do signs. I was like "this is easy" but I realized that it's actually quite hard to not do the same thing over and over again.

My HOPE is that after meeting with them, Ohtani told the Mariners "I like you guys, but I want a bit more money" and Dipoto said "hold my beer." If not, this will probably be the worst case of "we tried" ever.

I'm not mad at the Yankees for trying to (and succeeding) acquire one of the best players in baseball. I'm mad at the fact that they were so easily put into the position to do so. MLB authorized a sale to an ownership group that has lots of debt, that basically forced another firesale. The fact that Jeter isn't going to the winter meetings shows he has as much range as a GM as he did as a shortstop.

Inspector_666 posted:I'm actually surprised the Yankees didn't lose more guys. Mike Ford was kind of surprising pick since you'd think Seattle would want to promote Vogelbach first, although I see where the Mariners are going with it. Vogelbach has not impressed since coming to the organization. He still walks and all, but doesn't show enough power to justify playing everyday.

Inspector_666 posted:Oh yeah, wow, I didn't notice that Ford up a slugging pct 100 points higher, although both had 17 homers in the minors last year. Vogelbach plays in the PCL, which has insane home run rates. Ford's league is more HR neutral, so that doesn't bode well for Vogelbach.

I had to look it up but apparently root sports is owned by AT&T (in the case of the Mariners, they're at a 60/40 split ownership) and they just contract out to Fox sports to show some of their programming, so I guess they aren't quite hosed over. Yet. Edit: apparently all non NW root sports got rebranded to AT&T Sportsnet. The more you know. seiferguy fucked around with this message at 07:28 on Dec 15, 2017 |
