  1. It started with snowflake Then it was Trump Derangement Syndome. That is the their favorite and every time they say it they think it's clever and funny. Another favorite is orange man bad Now, it's go touch some grass?
  2. I am glad that the Republicans are starting to fear Seth Moulton. He could be an interesting future presidential candidate.
  3. They can make the team by showing real improvement in skills over past years. If they have good numbers, but they don't show pysical readiness, they won't make the team. Often times both will happen at the same time.
  4. Keith and Torres were on the roster last year too and they didn't use Keith at third until later in the year and even then he alternated between 3b and DH. He'll probably get the majority of at bats at 3B to start the season, but I wouldn't say he was rock solid at the position.
  5. Third base is not a position of need?
  6. It wasn't the stats. It was the chains!😀
  7. It's OK if you know what you are doing. For me, I dion't want it to become a habit. I am more comfortable being a Boglehead.
  8. The majority of fans like interleague play. That is why they have it. I don't care for having so mych of it, but they aren't marketing to me.
  9. it's just McGonigle.
  10. He was better than Charlie Morton.
  11. I thought about investing in an energy etf about a week ago, but I decided against it. It would have driven me crazy. The buy and hold index funds plus lots of CDs has done well for me and keep me sane.
  12. FanGraphs gives Peck a hit tool of 30. His 125/41 K/BB ratio is not impressive. He supposedly has power potential.
  13. That was the easy part. Nobody is better than us at killing people and blowing stuff up. Nobody!
  14. Peck is getting a lot of attention this Spring. How good is he supposed to be? I had the impression that he was a future utility guy, but he is not someone to whom I have paid a great deal of attention.
  15. That's because you questioned whether he had made the team or not.
  16. There is no question that men are more dangerous than bears.
  17. Don't let Edman hear you say that.
  18. Is long relief a waste? It can be a valuable role if Hinch wants it to be.
  19. My belief is that he came into spring training with a very good chance of staying with the team. My guess all along has been that he will make the club if he is a better option, in terms of current ability and readiness, than anyone he replaces. I expect him to make the team.
  20. No they aren't robots, but the vast majority of fans don't know enough from a small sample in order to detect whether it's real or just noise. It's fun to guess though.
  21. You got that strait.
  22. The majority of players will be playing multiple position, so Perez playing center field in spring training could just mean that they want him to be ready to play the position when the need arises.
  23. Most people want the same carefulness and thoroughness for all people regardless of what they club they are in.
  24. If Verlander gets shelled in a bunch of starts at the beginning of the season then sure, but arguably the best pitcher in Tigers history is not going to lose his job right out of the gate to a guy with career 44 innings and a 6.50 ERA.
