this rear end in a top hat is getting rightfully dragged in the replies

e: ^some of my favourite bits of cricket fielding are run-outs - think a ground-ball play where a 3B or SS has to barehand the ball, except instead of having a big first baseman with a glove to aim at they've got a piece of wood less than 2 inches thick the only semi-complicated cricket rule that's actually necessary in high-level games is LBW and even that's not really any harder to understand than the infield fly rule all the other stuff is a holdover from the early days of the game and basically only ever gets used in village games where a team might (for example) have a tree in the field of play Julio Cruz fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Feb 18, 2021 |

yeah I'm OK with this, I'd much rather go for someone with upside as the 5th starter than blow $40M on Bauer to be the #2 a rotation of deGrom/Carrasco/Syndergaard/Stroman/Walker could be incredible e: Yamamoto and Lucchesi will probably get starts as well until Syndergaaard's back/to manage Walker's workload honestly I'm beginning to get real excited about this team

generally before this offseason a lot of teams were hesitant to go to the actual hearing - there's one team (I think the Giants?) that went quite a few years without doing so standing up in front of a panel and explaining why your good young player actually isn't as good as they think is a good way to piss them off and is usually not worth doing just to save what is usually less than a million

huh that's not what I figured at all all the arb decisions seem to have come out recently, that's probably what made me thought that

isn't Ke'Bryan Hayes, literally the only actual good player the Pirates have, a 3B? I don't know why they'd want Frazier unless they're going to put him at first and literally everyone with an OPS over 100 has refused to sign for them

Felix looks like he should be holding a newspaper with today's date rather than a baseball

he hasn't even played a game for us yet and I'm still going to be super sad if we don't extend him e: pretty sure he's the first Met I've ever bought a jersey for before they played a game (bear in mind my fandom only goes back to 2006 or so) Julio Cruz fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Feb 25, 2021 |

El Gallinero Gros posted:Goddammit Tito. remember the best player on your team for the last 5 years? come join him where he is now e: actually bear in mind that all this poo poo around Callaway happened before the Mets hired him so unless you're really convinced by the change of ownership/FO you might want to steer clear

there are many words I'd associate with the Pirates but "respected" isn't one of them if you want a young, fun, good team Padres or Jays are both good choices, White Sox too if you can ignore the managership of one Anthony La Russa

Shiroc posted:Is the new Mets FO as evil as the previous one? They were my fallback after I abandoned Cleveland. I know they hired the poo poo GM but then dumped his rear end immediately when things came out publicly. I assume Cohen is evil in same ways as anyone that rich has to be. Sandy Alderson seems to be pretty much universally respected and he's unquestionably a much better GM than Brodie Van Wagenen was Cohen is a hedge-fund dickhead but at least he seems to want the team to win, which alone makes him better than probably half the ownership groups in MLB
