He may or may not be top 10, but he's counted upon as one of the major contributors to this offense, which is one of several reasons they've struggled to score run.
I don't get the angst over a 35 yr old backup catcher with bad knees. If The Framer wasn't made of glass (not mention his lack of hitting), AJ would be reduced to being Kershaw's jockey, which should be his role.
WS titles with the fab 5 ROY's = 0 WS titles with the Jacksonville 5 = o You're post, that might as well have been posted by Kasten himself, but adding, "...and come out to the park and buy hot dogs and beer in the meantime" = 0 All were untouchable and then on the roster. Sorry sport, nice try.
That's backwards logic. How many teams have 4-5 guys who can pitch complete game shutouts? What you're saying is we need more offense, not better pitching.
What in the hell is a " Jacksonville 5 "? Lol You got me with that one...that particular part was not corny, not like the usual
This is where the MVP voting is fucked up. The MOST VALUABLE PLAYER is the player who helps his team more than any other player, NO MATTER WHERE THAT TEAM FINISHES THE SEASON.
McCarthy actually got 4 years, and as has been mentioned here before, his injury was not predictable.
the "Untouchables" from the '00's had a name. Kemp, Loney, Martin, Billingsley and Broxton. Everyone wanted them in trade and no one got them. Kinda like the guys we have on the farm now. I can't remember every trade scenario but one involving Broxton back then would have been just fine!
I said basically the same thing for years. Pierre was villified for signing a big contract, and then...performing almost exactly to his career average. Did everyone think that getting paid more money was going to make him a better player? Ned offered the contract, Pierre just signed it. Then he did his job, and everyone hated HIM. smh.
I'll give you Schmidt, but Jones was strictly mis-use, as was proven later by the Yanks, when he posted a .923 OPS being used primarily against lefties.
Exactly. I was being sarcastic. I think I described one guy in the league, to be honest. He happens to be on our team, to expect 4-5 of those guys is impossible.
I just fell face first into a sixer of Lagunitas Sucks! It's one of my very favorites. Big fan of their beers, Lil Sumpin Wild, Brown Shugga, and just found some Lucky 13. Good shit. I'm in backwoods North Khakilaki and finding good craft beers isn't always easy.
