  1. Good stuff, @Brent Maguire. Petit and Parker have been studs for us this year. No way we're even close in this wild card race without these two acquisitions by Eppler.
  2. I honestly think that technology has an influence here, especially when it comes to fans in the OC, IE. Why drop 50 bucks a game (if not a lot more) when you can watch the game on a large HD screen with surround sound, you're own food and adult beverages? Even when I was in the OC I only went to 5-7 games a year, great product on the field or not. Up here I get to see the Angels 9 times, but I usually only go to 5.. I like watching from the comfort of my own home.
  3. He also shutdown Boston twice, Minnesota, Baltimore and Toronto's offenses as well. Seattle if they count.
  4. I applaud Eppler for taking the risk. The two going to Detroit could also very well be the next Ariel Pena and Johnny Hellweg. Both had good minor league numbers and a high K rate. Blah Blah. You cannot evaluate a trade until some 2-3 years after, if not much further out sometimes. I remember some were more pissed that we dealt Hellweg & Pena than Segura.
  5. No doubt... But, like the Greinke trade which I was in favor of, it gave us a chance to bolster our team's chances at winning. Sometimes you gotta roll the dice.
  6. Could be another Ricardo Sanchez, who cannot seem to get out of low A ball.
  7. It's only a kick to the nuts if Upton doesn't stay with us. These lower level skinny Dominicans with live fastballs don't always make it at higher levels.
  8. We're talking about right now, @Calzone. Nobody is questioning Trout as a good player. We're talking about how he doesn't show up in postseason or approaching postseason months of Sept. Also, that graphic was taken back in August.
  9. He may also have his sights on his impending wedding this winter and the honeymoon thereafter..
  10. And Richards, Skaggs & Heaney.
  11. It's that time of year to get swole again. Been hitting the heavy weights over the summer, leading into the winter where I'm set to consume 4k calories a day before trimming down in January for the spring/early summer.
  12. It sucks that Valbuena has to be our David Ortiz. But I'll take it. He's played better of late and he hits home runs.
  13. Free membership to our Adult Forum will seal the deal.
  14. Sign Darvish first, then get Otani. Trade Cron for an arm or prospect, put Otani at 1B. Upton loves all the activity and doesn't opt out. Sick Roster!
  15. Keep the bat flips going, Valbuena. I'm digging it! We honestly have ZERO swagger on this team. It sucks that it has to come from a FA signing that is hitting a buck 95.
  16. I've seen some of these on Facebook and IG. You have to create an album in there and upload, @ten ocho recon scout
