I mean, technically, Harper is putting up an Adam Dunn slash line this year....still a lot of games left to improve on it though. But it’s not really an argument on who is the better overall baseball player. 

I really just have no clue what people are arguing about.

 Think this dude might be playing the wrong sport.

you stink.  

your're a thug punk.  

I remember when he was the next young stud for the rangers.  -0.2 WAR last year and -1.1 WAR so far this year.  

the only thing you've hit the last few years is Bautista's chin.  

He’s such garbage. I don’t get how someone that bad can be put in the line up everyday. 

Oh wait... Kole.

Personally, I don’t even want to do anything this year. This team isn’t good enough regardless. We have good young talent.... I’m fine getting rid of the old fucks after this year and going for it in a year or two. Cause realistically.... this team has no chance. Don’t waste prospects.

Yep and it's the earliest in recent memory that I have lost hope in a team.

Before June 1st and the playoffs are already off the table.

I wouldn’t go that far but this team has problems and even if it makes the wild card game, it will not advance far past that.

Lol I’m off to Mexico. F*ck this team.

Bunch of quibbling on why we suck.. but the main point is...

we suck.

Or we could have traded for Simmons, moved Segura to second and we wouldnt have the problem at second base for three straight years.

Segura and Simmons sharing the infield together.

Would you want a player that had to play the field (for whatever reason) who would make an error 40% of the time, but was guaranteed to hit .350? 

As great as hitting .350 is, making an error in the field 40% of the time is a facking catastrophe.

Man -- that contract looks ugly and I think the narrative is that he's pitched poorly but, Grienke's ERA+ with Zona is equal to his career ERA+ overall.   He's not fallen off from his career norms, in fact he's doing better than his career averages in H/9, K/9 and BB/9.... but he hasn't come close to that ridiculous final season in LA.

If anything Grienke may end up being the poster boy for a guy putting up a salary drive season and cashing in.   1.66 ERA, 0.844 WHIP..  Just nutty.

Grienke looks like he's a border line hall of famer. He's at a 54.4 fWAR currently. Could push for 3,000 career strike outs if he finishes out his contract and stays healthy. 

I had no clue he was as close as he is TBH...

Edwin Diaz imploded. Mariners lose.

i can read the stats too, never seen him play much, bottom line someones going to pay premium, weve been burned so many times im not sure i want it to be us

 

We've been burned mostly by druggies and signing guys past their prime. I'm not willing to just sit back and not make moves just because we have been burned in the past.

Hmmm....our doctor is named El Attrache??? 

Which I'm pretty sure is "the attacher" in spanish? Coincidence that he works for us? I think not...

Fletcher and Thaiss plus low level arm for Gennett and Votto.  Release Valbuena, Kinsler.

i dont even think I would make that deal... looks at Gennetts career numbers, hes way over them, someones gonna get burned on that deal. 

Gennett broke out last year and he's showing it's not a fluke so far, unlike Cozart. Not to mention he's only 28.

You're reading this correct. Mike Trout is on pace for a 15.4 WAR season which would be the best ever by a position player.

Holy shit. And that's with him going through that stretch where he wasn't other worldly. 

Another Trout circle jerk? I'm in.

We have a team with Kinsler, Marte, Valbuena and Kole and we are complaining about Albert.   

Yea, we have had Albert for 7 years though so it's completely understandable. 

Anyone surprised that the only one who disliked Chuck's original post was Troll Daddy? I knew who it was when I saw one down arrow...still had to check to make sure. Classic Troll Daddy.

Sorry if anyone else has already pointed this out (I'm coming in late and haven't read all of the posts), but what's up with this announcer on Facebook not being able to pronounce the word "Guerrero"?  He's mangled it about 10 times already when talking about Vlad, Jr.

He's an idiot. That's the only explanation necessary.

Send him down with Ohtani to work on some things and figure out some scuffles.

Fletcher tweeted we all owe Kole an apology. We don’t owe him shit. He’s been absolute garbage today.

Horrible play by a horrible player.
