wtf mattingly has a baby kid? he's like 60
>>64406787
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fyEarGbpXM
>>64406806
he is 54 dude is going to be 70 when his kid starts driving
Since the elementary school until the 8th grade, I was a right hitter. I was right-handed, so I thought it was natural. I got a lot of hits, even inside-the-park homeruns, when I was at the elementary school.
But, when I entered the junior-high, I realized I coudn't hit as far as my seniors. Everyone was big, but I was thin and short. When I was a 7th grader, the bats were too heavy for me to swing. Even when I could hit a ball, it just bounced a little and didn't go so far. [...] I guess I had lost confidence with my batting at that point.
Of course, not being in the game is not a problem with me. There is always something to do, like raking the ground and maintaining the equipments. But, I wanted to be a regular, of course. So, I just had to practice everyday.
It was then when I saw him.
A friend of mine told me about him.
There is always that kind of guy, right? Someone who would tell you all sorts of information. He was really excited. 'There is a player who might hit .400.' He was called Ichiro.
Honestly, my first reaction was 'Who the hell is Ichiro?' There was no way I knew him. I was a local kid in Kagoshima. I watched only Giants games, and was sleeping when the sports news were on TV. I thought it was weird, you know. 'Ichiro' is just a first name, to begin with.
I immediately watched sports news. Seeing the guy hit and run, I was stunned how slim a baseball player can be. I believed that a strong ballplayer has to be big, like Kazuhiro Kiyohara or Hideki Matsui. But, the guy was strong even though he was that thin. He hit further than anyone. He was faster than anyone.
To me, he was a light.
He was that thin, and he was more successful than anyone. At that point, I had given up something just because my body was small, but he gave me some courage.
I can never say things like this any more, but as an ignorant junior high school kid, I thought I could do it if Ichiro can.
I guess I judged it just based on his appearance. `Ichiro does it with his thin body. He can beat big and strong pitchers. He hits tons of hits, homeruns.'
It's like Superman. I even imagined he might be a usual business man in the daytime, and turns to a strong ballplayer at night. I wondered why he can hit more than anybody with the thin body.
I thought I wanted to be a Superman, too. `I am small, but I may become like Ichiro', My brain was telling me. 'I can't become like Kiyohara or Matsui, but I can be Ichiro.' My brain decided so. If Ichiro can hit, I may be able to do it. It mustn't be only me who thought that way. I was just one of the millions of Japanese baseball kids who thought the same way.
I was obsessed with Ichiro. I bought a book with my money for the first time in my life. The book was called 'Everything about Ichiro'. I read it like crazy. I was an 8th grader.
Then, Ichiro came to Kagoshima.
I was a 9th grader then. April 16th, 1996, Kamoike Stadium in Kagoshima. I heard that there would be a Marines-Bluewave game, so I asked my mom for tickets, and went there to see the game with two friends.
I dropped my teeth just watching the fielding practice.
'What a strong arm he has.'
During the game, I saw him catch a right liner sliding, and throw the ball like a lightening. I saw him being run after by the fans after the game. They climbed down to the ground and approached Ichiro, but he ran away. That was also really fast.
He also hit a homer.
I was sitting in a seat right above the first-base dugout. Two hits and a home run. I learned later that the hits were from Hideki Irabu, and the homer was from Toshihide Narumoto. But, it didn't matter to me who pitched. Ichiro clashed the homer to the right, springing the thin body like a rubber, right in front of me.
He was no longer something in the too far away universe.
I saw him that close, and he was a light.

I mean, it was pretty spectacular he got 33 season so I wouldn't rule it out of the realm of possibility, but I wouldn't put the bank on it by any means
Only way I see it is if he plays one more season after his current contract, not sure if he'll be physically motivated

IBB record
Seriously that record is never gonna be broken it seems.
>>64411546
3000 = automatic HOF?
>>64411592
>3000 = automatic HOF?
depends on the circumstances around the player
if there are no controversies like roids,cheating and gambling then year its automatic
>>64411597
Why is that exactly?
What makes 3000 so special compared to other milestones for example?
>>64411546
>In his last at-bat of the season, with a chance to be a hero, Ross has a vision of his earlier years, when he was considered always dependable for the team. It inspires him to sacrifice his last chance with a bunt instead so the team can win a game and finish third in its division. Although Ross never reaches the "3,000" milestone, his newfound generosity and attitude gets him inducted into the Hall of Fame. He renames his businesses "Mr. 2,999."
Holy crap thats retarded,
>>64411605
Takes a long period of time of either being elite or well above average
A homerun hitting player can have 4-5 good seasons and mabe rack up over 400 homeruns but it takes someone being consistently productive over the years to get too 3000
Howard would be someone who fits that homerun player mold perfectly
>>64406759
Sisters is the best movie of 2015
>>64411605
Consistency over a long period of time. Players with 3000 hits have long careers with good offensive production throughout it. Some people like to say that it isn't a good milestone because all you need is a lot of at-bats, which in some ways is true but it can still contradict itself. If Hank Aaron had batted .243 throughout his career with the same number of at-bats, he would still be in the 3000 hit club. However, if Hank Aaron were a career .243 hitter, he wouldn't be given that many at-bats. It sort of evens itself out. However, there are cases like Craig Biggio where he never really had an absolutely dominant year offensively, yet he was consistent enough to just get over 3000 hits in his final season. You could argue that he wasn't really Hall of Fame caliber and he just compiled those hits, yet he reached a milestone that not many people have reached in their career.
>>64407129
>Castro
When did that become a thing? Only autistic behavior I've seen is when he has to mess with his eyelid, specifically when it's cold/windy and he literally spits on his hand multiple times and rubs it on his eyelid. This is just due to his eyelid being jacked up.
>>64411724
Biggio earned that HoF spot
He was consistently above average for over 20 years, that in of itself makes him elite
>>64411756
>above average
That was the point I was trying to make. Being "above average" isn't exactly something you would want to put on your resume to be immortalized in a hall with the like of Ruth, Gehrig, and Mantle. Being above average for a long time shouldn't warrant a spot in the Hall of Fame. Biggio's only claim to fame was 3,000 hits, and an argument can be made that those hits were just compiled rather than a show of elite offense.
>>64411796
So what, only players who did something extordanary should be allowed into the HoF? He was a good player year after year, and that's a lot more than most players can claim. How many mediocre players can you name that played 10 years ago?
>>64411796
There are different tiers to the HoF
Biggio is not on the same tier as ruth,clearly
>>64411855
>only player who did something extraordinary should be allowed into the HoF?
Yes.
>He was a good player year after year, and that's a lot more than most players can claim
And? He wasn't a dominant player year after year, just consistent. The Hall of Fame shouldn't be a participation award.
>How many mediocre player can you name that played 10 years ago?
What point does that prove? If a mediocre player averages a 2.0 WAR every year, should we let someone in just because they average 2.5-3.0 every year?
>>64406572
w-where is the dodgers?
>>64411925
He had a 9 war season
>>64411869
That was an extreme example, but my point was that he wasn't a HoF tier player.
>>64411961
>but my point was that he wasn't a HoF tier player.
yes he is, he's just not a top tier example of it he's still a HoF tier player
>>64411959
So did Bret Boone. Having 1 dominant season shouldn't be a lock for the Hall of Fame.
>>64411961
He was better than you
>>64411986
He had one dominant season and the 19 years of consecutive above average play. thats a HoF career
he rated in the top 10 in almost everything throughout that span
>>64411980
Other than his one season with a 9 WAR, and just barely getting over 3000 hits after 20 seasons, what did he accomplish that Hall of Fame worthy?
>>64411941
They're obviously all AL teams. Holy shit.
>>64412003
he had 3 seasons of over 6 war and on top of that he had 20 years of good play
He is a HoF player and if you can't see that, you need to start learning about baseball
>>64412016
A bunch of nobodies basically
>>64412016
There was a NL version some 2 years ago
>>64412003
I bet you think Bonds should be in the HoF
>>64412003

>>64411986
god damn boone was fun
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILevR9pmCiM
>>64412035
He had one 200 hit season, he only batted over .300 four times. The two statistics that he led the league the most in were Plate Appearances and Hit by Pitch. The picture is his 162 game average. Looking at that, I see a guy that I'd like on my team that would be good, not great, offensively and be able to get the job done. I don't see a Hall of Fame caliber player. Just because he was serviceable for 20 years doesn't mean he is one of the All-Time greats. There are people not in the Hall of Fame that were much more dominant than he was.
>>64412089
here's a better pic
>>64412089
>>64412107
You actually bring up a compelling argument... I can't say I really disagree with you
>>64412116
suck his dick already
>>64412089
>>64412107
here you go
Every other player that amassed 3,000 hits made it to the Hall of Fame, but from Biggio’s detractors, you hear the word “compiler” get thrown around a lot. What they mean by that is Biggio’s 3,000 hits weren’t as much a function of him being one of the game’s truly elite players as they were a function of his longevity. Of course, durability is a skill, too, but the Hall of Fame tends to reward greatness more than it does longevity, as it should. The two put together is what makes you a lock.
So, I wanted to look at Biggio’s peak years, and I wanted to look at the peak years of other Hall of Famers. If there’s a notion that Biggio was never elite, that notion is false. He put up a 9-win season in 1997, and that’s something only 11 other players have done in the last 20 years. His four-year peak, from 1995-98, was worth about +27 WAR, which ranks 56th all-time among position players and is better than the four-year peak of first ballot Hall of Famers like Willie McCovey, Tony Gwynn and Brooks Robinson. Biggio’s numbers are largely a function of his durability, but there’s no mistaking that the greatness was there.

Please learn more about baseball
please
Like I said, he had over 20 fucking years of above average production that in of itself is elite
No fucking faggot lucks into 20 fucking years of production and into 5 different position changes just so they could keep you on the team
>I don't see a Hall of Fame caliber player. Just because he was serviceable for 20 years doesn't mean he is one of the All-Time greats. There are people not in the Hall of Fame that were much more dominant than he was.
There are people in the hall with numbers less than him and the people out with number greater than him are very few. Don't count the roiders, they won't get in for obvious reasons

There are those defining moments in the careers of pitchers that totally fuck them up for a while.
For Brad Lidge, it was Pujols' massive home run in the 2005 NLCS.
For Johan, this must've hurt. He declined after that year.

That game also ended up fucking Felix up. He was >one strike away from getting the W and Beltran had to be a fuccboi and hurt him. this is just hard to watch

Some agents/execs believe part of reason there are so many good veteran players still unsigned is the growing volume of teams tanking 2016.
2016 is going to be FUN
>>64413062
What?
Isn't the NL never been more competitive?
>>64413081
NL has far less parity than the AL does. The variance between the top teams and bottom teams was huge this year

>>64415918
Yes, and those players epitomize what it means to be in the Hall of Fame. Being mediocre for 16 years, but having 4 all star seasons doesn't make you a HoFer. Biggio doesn't even get in if it weren't for he 3000 hits
>>64415918
Well fuck, if we go by your idea of the HOF then we only allow 20 or 30 people in.
http://m.whitesox.mlb.com/news/article/160243228/white-sox-reportedly-pursuing-alex-gordon
Interesting. Other Sox fans what do you think?
>>64416608
There are plenty of players that were dominant for a good portion of their career, Biggio isn't one of those players
>>64416611
They would have to offer him an absurd amount of money. I don't think he'd be dumb enough to stay in the division if he left KC.
>>64416658
Have you ever actually looked at his stats or watched him play? He was one of the top 2B of the 90s and early 2000s. He and Roberto Alomar.
>>64416732
Not to mention Jeff Kent, Chuck Knoblauch, and Mark Grudzialanek.
>>64416658
Biggio is extremely underrated. 3000 hits, nearly 300 HRs, 7 time all star. I feel like if he played for the Red Sox or Yankess he'd be considered a top 10 all time 2nd baseman.
>>64416756
Sadly this isn't that far from being true.

NL PLAYOFF PICTURE AS OF TODAY
West:giants
Central:cubs
East:Mets
Wild cards:St. Louis, Pittsburgh
Discuss /mlb/
>>64416898
>cubs
>not regressing
Pick one
>>64416898
swap the Pirates with the Dodgers
and maybe the Mets with the Nast, Mets just have no offense
>>64416898
>West:giants
stop posting forever
dodgers are a complete no brainer
>>64416898
Way to play it safe. I doubt the same teams from last year all make the post season. There's always a surprise team or 2 every year.
>>64416937
Cardinals and Pirates will regress too and the Cubs have done more to improve their roster than either of those two
>>64416941
Dodgers have had a terrible off season and haven't improved at all.
>>64416947
The cubs look like a complete team. The only bad parts would be there 3-5 starters.
>>64416980
I was actually referring more so to Pittsburgh and St Louis. But everyone doubts the cards and every year they make it.
>>64416959
I know it'll be another tight race but if I had to, I'd put money on the cardinals
>>64416980
They'll get both Maeda and Chen, and they're dominate 2016 with the asian invasion rotation.
>>64417034
Everyone in the cards rotation is questionable. They're outfield is also shady, 1st base, to. Looking at there roster now is kinda ugly. But yeah, they always seem to make the playoffs
>>64417085
Maybe to fulfill pissboys fetish then yes, they will.
>>64417085
The Dodgers already tried that in the mid 90s.
>Hideo Nomo
>Chan Ho Park
Didn't really dominate.
>>64417044
I highly doubt it, they'll regress the most considering their historically high LOB%
They also lost Lackey (FA) and Lynn (TJS). Getting Leake and Wainwright offsets that partly but not completely.
And lastly they lost their best position player last year and have yet to replace him
>>64413131
>Dbacks
lel
>>64416941
>mets have no offense
mets offense is fine, de aza is replacing neuinheiss on the bench, they're not done, and the rest of the lineup is fine.
>>64413131
>these choices
>the 2016 season
No...no...
>That dude who set the fireworks in an Indians game when Gordon homored
>>64417130
this time they'll have three
and all of them are aces
>>64417154
They probably are done
Mets fans gotta pay back the wilpons. Last year's playoff revenue isn't going back on the field
>>64416941
>Mets just have no offense
this is a myth
we saw this same thing ~5 years ago when people kept saying the giants had no offense
>>64417159
Yeah, if I recall, my reaction was pretty much relegated to saying, "WHAT THE FUCK!?" several times and throwing half a beer at the fridge in my garage.
>>64417165
Well, if they are aces, then Cleveland's rotation is nothing but aces.
>>64417166
They only have 4 outfielders so it can't possibly be done. That doesn't make any sense.
>>64413131
>marlins
>giants
>dbags
>>64417166
i highly doubt it
>>64417204
Do you really think they are going to spend more money. You may see a cost neutral trade but no big fa signings. Mest already spent all their money this offseason
>>64417223
no one says they are going to sign someone big
but span is still on the table
I'm pretty sure they're still meeting with him in January, not like that has been canceled yet
>>64406664
Actually they were still pretty empty the entire season
I was watching Scherzer's second no hitter and there was nobody there
>>64417246
Span is big for the mets
>>64417204
They can also call up Nimmo
>>64417247
yeah look how empty it is
>>64417262
That's fine
Unlike the Gnats we don't put banners up for offseason championships
So where is Alex Gordon going to end up?
>>64417303
You haven't been putting banners up for regular season championships either
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AmJA9Ay2F8
>that qt3.14 interpreter
>>64417330
Actually a "regular season championship" is called a division title. I think the Mets won the division in 2015.
Reminder that Mest fans didn't even stay till the end
>>64417282
that's pretty empty
>implying most people weren't just waiting for the yankees to get eliminated to go to a mets game
>>64417353
You know what I meant cunt
>>64417310

>>64417247
I was there that day and it was pretty packed, especially cause it was free blanket night
Reminder that Mike Trout will win the 2016 all star MVP, 2016 AL MVP, and the 2016 world series MVP.
Feels good to have the GOAT on your team.
>>64417435
>WS MVP
Yeah, it'll be nice to see him paired with Brantley in Cleveland after the trade deadline.
>>64417435
I'm sure he will love thinking of those when he's at home in October
>>64417130
Hideo Nomo was a 2 time strikeout king with the Dodgers you stupid fuck and had an ERA under 2.5
>>64417170
Except the mets didn't win a world series.
>>64417444
*Dustin Ackley in the Bronx
>>64417467
Calm down, pee pee ghost. I never said he wasn't good individually. Just saying that the Dodgers didn't dominate with the Asians in the 90s. They made the playoffs a few times, that's about it. Then the got rid of Piazza.
>>64417467
How many strikeouts did he have in the world series?
>>64417490
Sorry Yankee family, but your ownership doesn't have the bargaining chips. Gonna try to leverage that goofy looking 6'10 OF prospect?
>>64417538
>he thinks Cleveland has more to bargain with than the Yankees
Funniest thing I've heard all day
>>64417546
Cleveland has better prospects and traded pieces wtf are you talking about
>>64417546
Yeah, Carrasco, Salazar, and our top 2 prospects (OF- Clint Frazier, OF- Bradley Zimmer).
What do the Yankees have? 3 or 4 former all stars who are in their mid to late 30s...
Yeah, they'll go for that over young controllable ace caliber (one currently, the other a future) starters and two high ceiling OF prospects so we can borrow Trout for a year or two.
>>64417546
Unless their plan is
>top prospect
>half the net worth of the Steinbrenner family
>>64417170
Conforto better come alive. I'm tired of losing games 1-0, 2-1.
>>64417631
I think Bauer can still be a good 2-3 starter but I'm losing hope
>>64417223
There's no need to spend stupidly right now. The best players were free agent pitchers, which the mets have absolutely no need for. They have great bat in Granderson, and a promising rookie in Conforto. So they just plugged in that outfield hole, might be gold glover Lagares. Then you have locked roster spots in d'arnaud, duda, and wright. only thing left is middle infield, which they've shopped for two guys. Its not like some Jose Reyes or Troy Tulowitzki bat was available.
>>64417700
I know. I feel the same way about it. He seems to always start out hot, then his control disappears. Before you know it, it's the middle of the 6th inning and he's thrown 120 pitches with 8 K's and 5 BBs and the score is 2-0.
Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 1m1 minute ago
Source: #Pirates sign John Jaso to a two-year contract.
>>64417700
If he can't tie it together early this season, he'll end up on the block for the trade deadline. Then again, Cleveland has been very lenient with his autistic methods of training and preparation. Other clubs would probably force him to change everything, from prep to mechanics.
>>64413792
>no Bruce Bochy stories
How disappointing
>>64417763
Who do you think is writing them all
>>64417734
>>64417751
Yeah my thoughts exactly. Do you remember that game where he was at bat and copying his teammates batting stances? That was pretty funny. Also I was thinking about him getting traded for Marcel ozuna or Adam Eaton.
>>64417773
Tim Lincecum?
>>64417786
I was all for Ozuna. Unfortunately, just like the Frazier deal, both teams asked for the goddamn moon.
>>64417747
OBP OF THE GODS
>>64413062
>tanking
>in MLB
this is the absolute worst sport to tank in. More times than not, top picks dont even see the majors. This isn't like NBA or MLB, where the top pick is a guaranteed a starting spot. Unless they're waiting until contracts expire.
>>64417802
I think it should be a straight one for one trade. Funny thing about the Todd Frazier trade from Cincinnati was they asked for the damn world in return from Cleveland and ended getting a shitty package in return weeks later
>>64417878
It's because teams know what the Indians have and what they can't afford to lose. So they've got the Tribe between a rock and a hard place. The Reds knew that the Indians didn't want to part with their bigger starters. Can't afford to lose them, but they have a big hole in the lineup and 3rd base. Frazier fills both needs. Chicago has more market flexibility and can still move under financial pressure. Cleveland can't.
>>64417878
It's even rare for Cleveland, at this junction, to have this much talent actually locked up for several seasons. The last time they did, they made some playoff runs and ended up in the WS. The problem then becomes, do you sacrifice your short term multi year window of some playoff runs, or do you risk it all and go all in for one season and have to rebuild for the next 5 or 6 years?
>>64417938
Burn it all for 2016
Fernandez and trout should help
>>64417878
>>64417938
And they have to do it within the next couple years with Brantley on the roster. Once he hits the market, his contract will be too big to handle. He'll end up in either NY, CHI, LA, or BOS, where he will most likely finish his career as a great player with the Indians just being a footnote right beside "*player to be named in CC Sabathia trade with MIL"
>>64417910
Yeah even though everyone knew Cincinnati's asking price would be crazy by any standard. And yeah, Cleveland would be even better if they actually spent money. The swisher and Bourne(to a lesser extent) deals were going to be bad and that's what happened. Another bad thing being the third base free agent market hasn't been good to good either. Chisenhall has like one or to good months then slumps the rest of the season which sucks to watch.
>>64417968
Fernandez? Did he get a cybernetic arm implant during his surgery to ensure he will never get injured again?
>>64417993
Chisenhall will hopefully turn into Alex Gordon 2.0. A former 3B who moved to the OF and revitalized his career. Gotta get more consistent at the plate though.
>>64417938
>>64417987
Also like Toronto, they need to spend now because this window isn't gonna last another 3-4 years since there core players will hit the markets like you said
>>64417999
No player is a guarantee to never get injured again. Do you not think Fernandez is worth the risk?
>>64417987
>>64418017
Maybe. But he has a short leash from what it seems. Also, sucks about Matt laporta,huh?
>>64418023
I'd just be cautious. The Tribe already gambled on Brady Aiken in the draft. He'll either be the next great LHP in the majors, or he'll just be another tale of a former #1 overall pick who didn't make it to the big show because he had TJS at 18 years old.
>>64417538
You say that as if any team has any bargaining chips for Trout
>>64418049
What's LaPorta doing these days anyway? I always thought he'd at least be serviceable. Did he become an insurance salesman or some shit?
>>64418074
I'm not that dense. Trout will be an Angel for eternity. If someone even did have anything close to what they'd want, it would be the Mets entire rotation and a credit card that lets the organization eat at Cracker Barrell forever.
>>64418082
He was supposed to be the next Ryan Braun..imagine having that lineup.
>>64417630
C-can we trade for Lindor?
>>64418119
No, but you can have Jose Ramirez as a consolation.
>>64418119
You already have tulo leave the rest of us some shortstops
>>64418114

>>64418140

mattingly was just that bad, i'm not even kidding
We all know Mattingly was shit, but the Dodgers don't have a better chance at winning the World Series this year. Losing Greinke and replacing him with nobody, getting fucked over in the Chapman deal, losing Iwakuma, the Dodgers pitching is completely fucked. And I honestly think Roberts is going to be Mattingly v2.0, it was such a weak hire.
>>64418752

too old, his defense, which is his best quality won't be as good anymore, especially in the later years of any contract. and his defense was honestly only great one season
I'd much, much rather they go after Upton or Cespedes, dingers please.
I'd rather they just get denard span or even austin jackson actually. much cheaper, greater defensive improvements by putting them in center and eaton in left or right

3B: Bryant is a little better offensively but duffy is far more efficient defensively
SS: Crawford is both better offensively and defensively than Russell
2B: Zobrist is old af, Panik I'd a little better offensively and they're the same defensively
1B: Rizzo is better offensively than belt but they're the same on defense.
Giants objectively better, also they have a total of 6 rings out there, if you factor in posey it's not even an argument desu.
>>64419479

>>64419491
Your shit meme teams don't matter. Dodgers have the best defensive infield, outfield, pitching staff, and coaching staff.
Who's sick of small market teams like the Giants trying to appear relevant?
You'll never be in the same class as the Yankees, Red Sox, Cubs or Dodgers

Now you're just fishing.
>>64419546
I agree, the dodgers will end up ahead of the giants. In the end though, snakes will take it
>>64419627
No, I'm being straight with you. Counting stats reward longevity and work ethic and like I said are respectable, but they show much less about your quality as a player compared to percentage stats. So he had a higher average than one guy who racked up more hits...that really doesn't say enough. Everything else in your quote is a counting stat.
And that was my first post on this topic btw.
>>64419491
3B: Bryant is far better offensively but Duffy is a little better defensively; Bryant gets the clear edge (unanimous Roty)
SS: Crawford gets the edge, but Russell is slightly better defensibly
2B: Close but Panik has the edge on both sides of the ball
1B: This one is right, Rizzo better offensively, about the same defensively
Depth: Baez > Tomlinson
Giants are better up the middle
Cubs are better at the corners
overall Cubs > Giants
Quick, name a better team than the Los Angeles Dodgers of Chavez Revine. Protip, you fucking can't.

New York Mets
>>64419759
Bryant is not FAR better, he just has more power, and Russell is definitely not better defensively. I know the Cubs just got good but atleast pretend you've been watching more than a season.

>>64419846
Why don't you take all the Ls that the Dodgers took from the Mets?
>>64419876
no bully
>>64419905
27 year bye motherfucker. At least we're not the the second best team in our state.
Sorry guys, I just wanted to see how many (you)s I'd get if I adapted Pissy Memeke's style of posting.

Thanks guys :')
The point is I think we can all agree that the Giants Cubs and Mets are all taking their respective divisions.
>>64420079
Sounds about right.
>>64419836
Bryant wRC+ was 20 points higher, that's FAR better
Russell UZR/150 (20.4) was 8.5 points higher than Crawford's (11.9)
Russell's DRS (10) was half as much as Crawford's (20), despite playing just two fifths of the innings as shortstop that Crawford did (Russell played 471.1, Crawford 1200.1) In other words, Russell save 0.021 runs per inning, while Crawford saved just 0.017 runs per inning. (note: Russell's 2B stats are not included, only his SS stats)
So yeah, Russell is better on defense
>>64419759
>3B: Bryant is far better offensively but Duffy is a little better defensively; Bryant gets the clear edge (unanimous Roty)
True
>SS: Crawford gets the edge, but Russell is slightly better defensibly
Crawford is superior defensively too
> 2B: Close but Panik has the edge on both sides of the ball
True
>1B: This one is right, Rizzo better offensively, about the same defensively
Belt's got a clear edge defensively, Rizzo is better offensively, but not by much.
>Depth: Baez > Tomlinson
Tomlinson is superior offensively and defensively
Giants>Cubs, especially when you take into account Posey.
>>64418954
Giants mariners here
>>64420167
>Crawford is superior defensively too
nope, see >>64420126
>Belt's got a clear edge defensively Rizzo is better offensively, but not by much.
In 2015 Belt was better, but career wise Rizzo is better, no way you can give Belt a clear edge.
>Rizzo is better offensively, but not by much.
With the exception of a .002 point lower BA, Rizzo was better in every category in 2015. This difference isn't as much as Bryant/Duffy, but it's still pretty big. (10 point higher wRC+)
>Tomlinson is superior offensively and defensively
This one is difficult because neither have a full season of experience, but Baez has the far higher ceiling and far more trade value.
So Cubs > Giants
If you include catcher it puts the Giant's over the top, but catcher isn't considered infield.
Mets > Cubs=Giants
>>64420079
Nah, there are still going to be people who pick the Gnats, despite the fact that they are an absolute train wreck in motion and have only gotten worse this offseason.
>You are now reminded that there are real-life human beings who think Dusty Baker will turn the Washington Nationals around.
Both Cubs and Giants are trash what is the discussion?
Bamgarner > Arrieta.

So what is the argument against him not being in there then? He was one of the cornerstones of the organization for pretty much his entire career. When you refer to the "quality" of a player, what defines that quality? Does he need to be a Roberto Clemente? Does he need championships to cement a legacy? Half the players who are in Cooperstown don't have them. What exactly are you basing the quality on? What criterion has he not met, in your opinion? Are stats irrelevant?
>>64420495
Hoffman>Rivera
[Spoiler]J-Just let me have my delusions. I don't have anything else.[/Spoiler]
>>64420543
Youre not wrong. Hoffman was a better closed than Rivera. And Gangé in his prime was better than both.
Daily reminder that beating the Dodgers is equivalent to winning the WS for Giants fans
>>64420561
>Hoffman was a better closer than Rivera
Will he finally get into the Hall, bros?
>>64420666
>Craig Fucking Biggio got into the Hall of Fame before Based Edgar
Why are baseball writers so fucking retarded? Is it because Edgar doesn't have 3000 hits?
Hey guys, I have a trivia question
This team had a 56 WS series drought, almost moved twice, and is obsessed with a larger market team that has won more WS than they have.
What team is this?
>>64420685
Edgar didn't field the baseball and Craig did.
>>64420561
>Hoffman was a better closed than Rivera.
>Gangé in his prime was better than both.
>>64420685
because
>m-muh DH.
doesn't matter that he was one of the greatest hitters in history, despite having terrible eyesight. Baseball writers, mainly NL writers, don't want a DH in the hall.

Literally no statistic backs up your claim

You respond to retarded bait with even more retarded bait or reaction images. Not actual proof to back up your claims.
>>64420825
WAR? Gimme something more tangible
Gangé was literally perfect for 84 saves.
Perfect.

comparing starters and relievers... pls
>>64412395
Texas Yankee brought up Kershaw then brought up Rivera having a lower ERA with over 1000 innings pitched as a comparison to Kershaw.
Baseball!!
>>64413005
It was a great day indeed. Now Reynolds just needs to get kicked off of MLB Network and all will be right with the world.
ANDY PETTITTE IS A STARTING PITCHER.
>>64420884
DG has been saying that Kershaw has the lowest ERA in the live ball era with over 1000 innings pitched forever now
>>64420728
>TWC actually expects people to pay for this shit
>>64420856
I was saying DG usually just bait posts and the only way to respond to him is with bait posts and reaction images.
