Price is coasting to his new contract lawl

retires 18 straight batters. Ryan Goins lets him down than the wheels fell off.

Sad Frasor wanted to come back to TO for 500k and AA showed how stupid he is - Smarch

 

hating on AA

Yeah AA is a genius. He's done good this year, but his body of work is pretty below average especially this trade http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2012/12/team-to-acquire-ra-dickey.html

For any Canadians here who want a great Halloween costume idea, this morning I thought of dressing up as the kid who caught that "home run."

It looks as tho Shapiro is running the team. Apparently he blasted everyone in the first meeting for trading so many prospects this year.

1. I thought he took over next Monday?

2. Shapino doesn't really have a good track record himself when it comes to trading players/prospects. Not sure if that is a smart move.

1.He does, but much like the PM the incoming one makes all the decisions, Beeston doesn't do anything

2.Shapiro has a good track record of trading veterans for decent prospects, but never amounted to much in his seven years as GM outside two playoff apperances

So sound like AA didn't like his little speech? In the grand scheme of things the only prospect that was traded away that can really be regretted is Noah Syndergaard.

AA and Shapiro apparently didn't see eye to eye on the direction of the team and just now AA was announced Executive of the Year, so he knew he might as well take off now when his ceiling is what it's at. Can't blame him

Yeah that's a smart move. Well should be an interesting off-season in the 6.

Brady Aiken former #1 pick is back to throwing off a mound just 9 months after TJ surgery, reports are his arm was hitting 92-93 already. he could be a 97-99 mph left hander when its all said and done, no reason he should have slept to 17 even with TJ surgery, its not a career ender anymore an some think its whats best for young pitchers.

They think its best because you're arm will eventually go through a tear like that, it's almost automatic. Buddy had two TJ's and still plays AAA, albeit out of the pen now.

[FacePuncher 1,343]

Experts are really worried about that stuff though. Saw a big report about it, players can have 2 TJ surgeries and the recovery time is lowering, but the amount of pitchers getting the surgery has been climbing. I guess it's a win-lose

Would anyone be interested?

Just wanted a few leagues running and was seeing if anyone around here (who would take it somewhat serious) was interesting in being a part of one.

In a baseball sim site?

[Advantage 2,899]

Just looking for a simple ESPN or Yahoo Fantasy Baseball Pool/League.

 

Can determine which site, attributes to use for scoring, etc.  Just want to see how many would actually be interested.

[FacePuncher 1,343]

I am down

[gregreg 930]

yeah I was looking for one ADV

At this point we wouldn't be able to score till week 2 so I'll create it tomorrow night and we can wait a couple days to fill it up and then do the draft to be ready for the second week.
