Here Come my Mets!

@Used 2 B Hu what's wrong with DeGrom?

He probably realizes that there's no use in trying anymore.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

I think I've probably cursed the Diamondbacks enough these last few weeks. Time to lay a-hurtin on some other clubs...

Look, a rich hill sighting.

And he was good!

That time off might be the best thing that happened to the dodgers.

Not only did they survive, they thrived, jumped back to 1st place where their talent dictates they belong, and now have built a lead.

And Kershaw is looming...

Top 5 offense in the AL and the best rotation?

plus they've done it without their best player.

But overpaying for Miller is gonna come back to bite them in 2017 and 2018.

Why do you consider $9MM/yr to be overpaying for a proven top relief pitcher?

What makes you think his performance will decline over the next two years?

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Top 5 offense in the AL and the best rotation?

I'm not sure I'd crown them with the best rotation.

A top rotation for sure, but TOR's starters have more IP with an ERA 0.31 better, and TBR are right there with the Indians. The Rangers' season stats aren't far behind and with the Indians rotations' recent struggles and Darvish's 2nd half return, I wouldn't be surprised to see that gap close some.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

plus they've done it without their best player.

Brantley is a great player, and he'd definitely be a welcome addition back into the lineup, but measured by WAR, he hasn't been their #1 player in any season, and with the way that Lindor has hit the ground running both behind the plate and in the field, I wouldn't say that Brantley ever will be the Indians' #1 player.
