Omar Infante has now passed Jose Altuve in All star voting

[SoutheastBeast1]

If Folty still can't locate by the AS game I'll pick Williams up myself if no one has

Fair warning

[SoutheastBeast1]

Man imagine if Folty had Perez's command. I just want to smash them together and create 1 super pitcher, aka Chris Archer.

[SoutheastBeast1]

Also Jace is going to be one hell of a 2B. I know they are moving Peraza to CF but damn not sure what ATL is gonna do with Peraza/Mallex problem. They can't both play CF

I would say move Jace to 3rd would solve to log jam but he's too good defensively at 2B. Not sure that's even an option now.

Token 1 run for the bullpen per inning not pitched by Johnson and Grilli achieved, lol

This **** is like clockwork. It's amazing. For as uncertain as baseball can be, this is about as certain as it gets

theyre all athletic enough to play utility roles. Peterson's plate discipline has been outstanding, though his glove wont compete with Pereza.

Yeah but you don't want 3 of them in the lineup. Not that they aren't all good but that's just not much power at all, plus Simmons.

I guess if they replaced Markakis and 3B with power bats it could work. Still that's a lot of contact hitters who will combine for like 5 HRs if lucky.

And Jaces glove can hold its own. And it's getting better. Trying to show Jace some love, cause no one will give it to him because of the Peraza hype.

youre stuck with Markakis

[melanimal_old]

My god George Springer is a stud

[melanimal_old]

Schwarber is up to the show, less than a week after Salty drops him.

[SoutheastBeast1]

I meant when Mallex is ready. Markakis will be in his contract year by the time Mallex is ready.

[SoutheastBeast1]

Domingo getting the call

U mad?

[Pro_Shark]

so is MLB going to step and stop this farce of an All Star vote?

They better not. This is the best thing to happen to the ASG

I don't think Im getting an interview to that job.

The deadline to interview is the 23rd, then they're making decisions so it isn't looking good. Some of the programs have already done their interviewing completely and made offers (though I don't know which ones).

anyway, wanted to update since a couple of you helped/wished me luck. There's a few silver linings to not getting the job but I won't go in to detail, so not the end of the world

[melanimal_old]

Oppo taco for Springer. 2 hrs and an unreal run saving catch.

[2445ricardo]

Could not be more thrilled about the idea of Omar Infante getting an AB in a game with WS implications.


And SprinGOAT gonn SprinGOAT

all it takes is one man. I know the feel. I interviewed with NRG last month and the creative director blew me off and I got stuck interviewing with some copywriter.

pathetic showing from the Dodgers. God I hate the Rangers.

New stack idea for DFS: the SB stack (i.e. 4-6 guys who would at least attempt to if they got on base) vs. Lester, Burnett, Ross, Weaver

These guys are abysmal at holding on runners, as most of you probably know by now. The only thing that keeps me from employing this more often is the fact that 3 of these guys are at least above average, o I find myself using them on days that they pitch.

Could be an interseting long-term hedge strategy for tournaments.

[melanimal_old]

you guys suck outside of coors field. Pederson is a good player, he plays a good series in Colorado and people are saying hes on Trouts and Harpers level. Christ.

I pitched Chen tonight and stacked huge name bats that arent named Goldschmidt and none are Pirates. I thought about playing Goldschmidt, Marte and Mccutchen, but went with Braun , Trout and Harper. -_-

[melanimal_old]

Id say Greg Holland is starting to get on thin ice with his closer job. Hes been nothing like his older self.

Dodgers started out hot. In the last 30 days they rank 16th in wOBA, I wonder what it would be if that coors series was played in LA.

I think if Rollins struggles even more, Seager may get the call.

And if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

Every team benefits at some point from playing in hitter-friendly parks. dealwithit.gif

Pederson is a tier below Correa, Bryant, Buxton

No point in arguing with an armchair GM.

oh wow Domingo did get the call.
