He also clogs the basepaths.

I have seen him hit into double plays, and he isn't even in the frame by the time that the first baseman takes the relay throw.

But, two Asians. 

If he gets Price I may actually believe there's some truth to that. Otherwise it's 100% pants-on-head retarded.

I mean either scenario is but let's just hope we don't get Price.

He'd beat me in a footrace to 1st by only half a step, and I make Colon look fuckin shredded.

Saw a movie once called two asian butts. The story was pretty bad, and the acting so so, but the action scenes made up for it

I liked it a lot then suddenly lost interest.

Two asian butts part 6 was probably the best of the series. Give that one a look if you ever have a spare 9 minutes.

It's funny we live in a world where Texas has much better pitching than us but also a worse offense.

[Lou]

it's sad we live in a world where a state like Texas is allowed to exist

I didn't know there was an Asian football team.

David Price really wouldn't be a bad option depending on the cost. Again, if he only costs 15 million a year, and they get Luis Rengifo back, it's a solid deal for both sides. Price reuinites with Maddon, last year was the first time in a decade he hasn't exceeded 175 IP, his 3.62 FIP was directly in line with his previous two seasons. Not only that, he gets to move out of the AL East, and gets an even better defense behind him. Price still generates a fair number of ground balls. He is fully healthy again, and he's that veteran presence that every staff needs. The guy that the rest of the pitching staff looks to for advice, because he's been there. He's been that top prospect, he's been that top of the rotation starter, and he's pitched in the world series.

While he's not the ace he once was anymore, he's still a reasonable bet to go 150+ innings with a 4.00 ERA at minimum. Best case scenario, he's more like 180+ innings and a 3.25 ERA. The middle ground is probably around 170 innings and a 3.50 ERA.

I still think the $15 million a year thing is unrealistic. $20 million is even pushing it but at least we'd be taking on most of the contract.

But let's say this scenario plays out and it ONLY costs Rengifo. Despite the injury history and velocity trajectory, you would be fine with Price at 3/45 despite the Angels not even offering Ryu a contract? 

[Stradling]

I’m guessing it will be 3 years and $51-54 million. 

[tdawg87]

This is like the Angels not offering Rendon a contract because he's too expensive and has an injury history but giving Donaldson 4/120.

3 years is not 4 years

This is stupid.

Also Price is a year older than Ryu so it might as well be.

did you go to Hofstra?

I bet you went to Hofstra.

[tdawg87]

Hofstra is an anagram for Far Shot, as in if you went to Hofstra you have a far shot of being anything more than a c*nt.

It's also an anagram for Farts Ho. Do with that information what you will.
