A.L. Central Smack Talk 2014

[Fountain City Blues]

And on June 17, it will mean ...

NOTHING

Yes, this I am aware of. I just found it to be a fun stat.

Gordon's 3rd in the AL in WAR (just ahead of Bautista!) and yet, he's not even in the top 15 in the ASG voting. Meanwhile, guys like Josh Hamilton (who's played 21 games), Carlos Beltran (84 OPS+ and missed time), and Torii Hunter (90 OPS+ and rates as much as much as -15 runs below average in most metrics already) have been getting more votes.

A damn shame...

And how is Perez not getting more votes?

That is why I take no merit in people stating " he is a 7 time All-Star". When people vote for sports it is strictly popularity. The names mentioned do not even belong on ballot this season.

I take merit in the top 100 NFL, only because peers are voting.

Royals are looking like legit challengers to detroit this year in the central.

Saw this last night with a caption in it. Can't find it just this.

KC did exactly what you should do to a pitcher that's scuffling: pummel the shit out of him. We'll see how they do against Max tonight, who is coming off a shutout.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Been away for a minute....thread has gotten interesting since the tigers been scuffling. I said the ONE team that will challenge detroit would be KC. i think theyre just the hot team now....most teams have nice streaks during a season....just gotta avoid the big losing streaks....play .500 and go on big winning streaks from time to time. That will win the central...i still think detroit wins central but not by as much as some fans think. Or thought...


Still think cleveland blows.....

 

[Cleaves2000]

What knowledge have you stated? Me and CSD fuck with each other. At least we state some stats and facts at times. The shit you babble is pure comedy. Only issue is you are the only poster on this thread that has no clue how clueless you are.

I am so glad Verlander had a great game. Thanks Dougie, I do thrist that knowledge you posess.

Gandy you gotta understand. Dougie is the room entertainer.....you just gotta sit back and enjoy.....i mean cmon, he is a michigan fan.....hes one of the few that think lewan is a stand up guy...

I am a Michigan fan. Could not stand Lewan. Over rated POS.

Now with the Terps in Big14, I may have to revert back to early childhood Bobby Ross days. Loved PSU for years until the Sandusky debacle. JoePa crushed me covering that up.

Funny part about this is you're 58 years old...

 

[CSD]

Well then I look really, really good for 58.

 

[Cleaves2000]

this guy that draws this cartoon for the free press. every day...he pushed for Obama . it was so obvious. I don't even look at his cartoon. just like the whole free press. push for democrat every election. all one sided. sorry gandy.... might be over your head. its called politics

 

[da55bums]

ouch, getting on Max early

that should put 4 Royals pitchers with lower era's than all but sanchez now.
