    Didn't realize the Pirates had such bad attendance problems, this guy's heckles are super loud and fucking hilarious frankly. Good shit

    i finished 11th

    a lot of things went wrong this year, but some things went right for next year

    i have a decent stable of starting pitching that looks to be a potential core for 2017, Votto returned to form and will justify another keeper selection next year

    i think I can get back to the playoffs next year with a good offensive draft

    If Keuchel hadn't been a shit pile and Abreu didn't wait until now to start socking dong, is be in the playoffs easy.

    I have no clue what I'm going to do for keepers next year though.

    I've been so messed up for these last few weeks and I have no idea.

    Sigh, 10th.

    Well I have a bunch of young talent, so now that should help and I go pitching heavy in theory. Lots of keeper choices so it should be interesting (and by lots, I mean lots for me for once).

    Well, I destroyed our previous regular season wins record by 25, and there was even an extra week that season. So that's something.

    Let's see if I can't not blow it in the playoffs.

    New rule to be voted on:

    The League Champion only gets one keeper.

    This rule only impacts Schide.

    Schide's only won the championship once. Historically, it would have a bigger impact on Maximum, who won in 2013 and 2015.

    EDIT: Also, that chart party video made me go check out Gary Sanchez, who is currently sitting at 30 games played and has an OPS of 1.136

    The Mets will sign Tim Tebow to a minor league deal according to Adam Schefter, an NFL reporter.

    If you wanted to drive to Danville, maybe. I'll be surprised if he sniffs AA ball, much less MLB.

    The Mets have a minor league affiliate in South Carolina

  • a5ehrena5ehren AtlantaRegistered User regular
    Also he's apparently getting to not play in Saturday games in the fall league to keep doing his ESPN job. But he's totally dedicated to baseball and not just selling his book, guys.

    I figure they would have put him with the Gwinnett Braves.

    Nah, dude is 29 and hasn't played baseball in over a decade. He's not going to be in AAA for a long time, if ever.

    Hey @Nirya guess what?

    One of the new employees at my job (a school) is the mother of Angels pitcher Nick Tropeano.

    That's pretty neat!

    I actually wish Trop got to pitch more but he's basically stuck as our sixth starter for no real reason other than this organization is clown shoes.

    Well, now he's stuck on the shelf until 2018 it sounds like b/c of the UCL surgery.

    EDIT: She brought in one of his TOPPS cards, but it wasn't signed.

    I know he's old and injury prone but

    How do you seriously pull Rich Hill from his perfect game only 89 pitches deep

    so javier baez's tag game is kind of unreal. i just learned miguel montero has requested baez exclusively take the throw on steals, even when he's playing second with a lefty up. i have never heard of a catcher doing that

    it's unreal how quick and under control he is, doing that

    also, he doesn't steal much, because the cubs don't...really make a habit of it, but he's got a few terrific slides into second under his belt, too

    Dozier in the 40 home run club

    cool I guess for this shit show of a season

    Roughned hit number 31 last night. He was worth the third round pick.

    Somebody please tell me that Zach Britton isn't actually the front runner for the Cy Young, because if he does I'll eat my hat.

    My hat of lies.

    Seems like it's him or Kluber.

    Until my dying day I would never vote a relief pitcher as Cy Young winner.

    It's weird that Kyle Hendricks is a legit Cy Young candidate, right?

    It's crazy that the cards are still in it, they are not great this year. This article put together the best 40 game record and the worst 40 game record for each team, and the difference between the card's two records is like, 3 games.

    http://www.vivaelbirdos.com/2016/9/8/12844058/the-2016-st-louis-cardinals-methodically-consistent-and-perfectly-uninspired

    Also bizarre is their huge disparity between road and home record, with them playing much, much better ball on the road.

    They aren't eliminated yet, but maybe it will do more good if missing out convinces the FO to make a manager change. This series against the Giants is going to be huge. Too bad the Giants are super good at eliminating the cardinals.
