I just don't think WAR is going to be much of a factor with closers. I don't have it up - but Kimbrel is... 7 saves away from jumping into the top...
Oh, boy - I vehemently disagree with this. The All-Star game is a *game* in which you need players to fill specific roles in order to play that...
See @tallanvor post above - it's from Drew Doughtery.
Now, Rivera being the first unanimous selection is remarkably silly. But it also underscores that he is viewed at a different level than any other...
"Houston's going to unveil the four new uniforms the week of the NFL Draft in late April. They will be drastically different than what we've seen...
Yeah, if Slowick leaves, I guess we can bring him in to call plays. Not sure why this would make me want to overpay him to rumble 3.5 yards a...
Yeah; I keep using Gooden because those first four years of his career - in which he totaled the same number of innings as Wagner did for his...
Mariano's case leans heavily on the FAME part of Hall of Fame. I'm not sure any other closer has reached his level of recognition. You literally...
I don’t think Chapman has a chance with his off-field issues. But Kimbrel and Jensen should both finish top five in saves with better rate stats...
The debate isn’t the greatness of Wagner, though. He’s great. The debate is whether there should be a minimum threshold for that greatness wrt the...
But those "seasons" are not equal. That's disengenuous. Yeah; he did it for 12 seasons - while totaling the same number of innings Gooden totaled...
I was responding to why his deal gets a bad rap - it was stapling that third year onto the deal that made it troublesome. Everything else was...
......... Jose Abreu brought a sub-650 OPS into September..... when has Alex Bregman ever had a five-month stretch *that* bad? For me (and may...
I don't think having a different opinion makes one a moron. I don't think players that impact ~10% of the game are worthy of inclusion among...
It was his first year, and for all the successes they had, he was working with a rookie QB; a rookie WR; a patchwork OL (which, when healthy,...
Thanks! In those four seasons, Gooden totaled the same number of innings pitched as Wagner did for his entire career. So why is one docked for...
Maybe. But his offensive line is awful; his QB is awful; & the Titans have no other offensive threats. And I think at least some of that "washed"...
You misunderstood - if he gets to 1000 IP *total* - he's at 720 right now. Barring unforeseen issues, he should sail by that next year. That's...
I'm not so sure. Smaller sample size - but his numbers with the Astros are significantly better & he has more CYAs here (2-1; granted, 1 less...
Curious... For the past four seasons, you've had this pitcher on your staff: 73-26; 2.46; 0 SV; 924.1 IP; 146 ERA+; 2.43 FIP; 1.074 WHIP; 8.9...
