MLB Daily Thread: 4-13-16 Clay Fantastic Again, Last Place Coming

You might be asking too much

What's even more concerning to me is the 5.23 team ERA. . .

It always takes me a month or so to remember that it's a long season and not to overreact over a handful of games, but shit.

Era 5.20 in AL is like 3.30 in the NL

Who is this Logan Verrett guy scheduled to pitch today?

One of those classic AAAA guys. Can be decent but isn't quite major-league. Is handy as a spot starter/long reliever and is going today because Collins blew through the bullpen on Monday when Matz stuck up the joint.

Its the Indians, never too early to overreact

Mets are winning today....The law of averages in baseball, never fails

With that said, I hope they lose 14-0

I think the braves could win AAAA this season

Oh, they're gonna lose.

Then Terry Collins will be holding his dreaded "i hate to have team meetings, but we need a team meeting" meeting. Second year in a row the offense has started off horrible.

Starting pitching is fine (outside of one Matz start)

Division could be all time awful

if there is one team in all of baseball id honestly say will be fine after a slow start, its my and your Metsies

Oh, back on the wagon, are we? Did you get a double-frappuccino-mocha-chai-lamba-thingy at Starschmucks this morning?

That's because the NL teams hit like a bunch of pussies.

You know I did, so you could stop acting like i wasnt directly behind you on line at our 34th and Park branch

Seriously, file this under the strange anomalies:

AL ERA - 4.02
NL ERA - 4.36

I'm sure it will correct itself in about a week, but still, it's almost interesting and I'm kind of bored.

Fuck an A.

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

You're not high on the Nats

I am not...I think the losses of Zimmerman and Desmond is not offset by the addition of Murphy

I dont like that lineup at all, outside of the great one......Zimmerman and Werth will see plenty of DL time, and Rendon is no lock to play 150+ game either.......Michael Taylor doesnt excite me at all

With all that said, once Lucas Goliota comes up, that staff can challenge the Mets, so i could be completely wrong

That and the whole DH-thingy

It was historically bad last year. I didn't look at "all time," but I did look at the last twenty or so years and the 2015 NL East was the worst measured by divisional W/L record.

You know thassa lie!


No way you recognized my disguise this morning

Stuff will normalize

Murphy and Joe Ross for Zimm and Desmond is basically the deal.
