Boston: "Oh no, we suck again!"

[Village Plumber]

The Angels put a guy on the trading block during the preseason that might be able to put up numbers comparable to Lawrie.

I can't remember his name, but do know he just had a RBI single a few minutes ago.

What is Wells up to? 9 RBI's since HW humped his "normalizing" 6 days ago? 10 RBI's? I've lost track already

 

[obxyankeefan]

Ben Francisco is batting .132. WTF was Boesch sent down instead of this clown?

 

[Halos02]

The Angels had the Best OPS+ in the Majors last year, 4th Runs and 5th in OBP..

Blue Jays offense is capable of duplicating that?

Damn, I wish this year's Angels could duplicate that...

 

[Village Plumber]

nooo.. don't try and change my words or argument. you said teams don't be as bad as the jays are and go on to play .600+ ball. i proved the angels did that.

Umm.... the Angels weren't as bad as the Jays


Apparently they only taught that in white schools

 

[Village Plumber]

and you making the point that they finished 3rd is actually making my case.

It makes your case that the team you're citing as why the Jays have a chance didn't actually have all that much a chance?

No, no failure at all on the part of affirmative action

:rollseyes:

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

I stand by my statement.

3rd Base was fucking terrible.

Word! Frazier sucks

 

[heatwave31]

FACE PALM!!

Guys need to get on base in order to hit and run. Guys need to not swing and miss 28% of the time to hit and run. Guys need to stay healthy in order to hit and run. Team needs to have a lead in order for your shut down closer.

Speaking of which - isn't he playing over his head and is bound to normalize with a bunch of blown saves? Or is he gonna be perfect all season?

Jays only normalize good
Yankees only normalize bad

Got it!

glad you brought it up jerk.. how many saves has janssen blown in two years time. what's his whip what's his era what is K/BB ratio

normalize that and tell me what you get

 

[Halos02]

CH - Mendoza vs. Blanton tonight. 0-8 combined, ERA's hovering around 6...

I'm thinking both guys go 7 scoreless and the Angels bullpen gives up a HR to Billy Butler in the 8th to lose 1-0.

Cubs sign Rizzo: 7 years, $41 mil.

What a team friendly deal. Holy shit.

epstein does it again!

He really does. He has no clue up there right now. Very Bruceian.

Luckily though, they'll both hit well before the season ends.

I ain't doing your math, it's about time you learned to do math on your own...

I can tell you that normalized isn't "zero blown saves"

 

[Lord Scalious]

He really does. He has no clue up there right now. Very Bruceian.

Yeah..Bruce will have like a 2 week Hot streak...

Then suck for another 3 months...

Lets see Janssen

stat 2013 career

era .69 3.51
era+ 631 125
whip .308 1.224
saves 10 41 career best 22


no normalizing coming here everything looks normal to me.

 

[Village Plumber]

By the way, while we're on the topic of "normalizing", when can we expect your (still) in last place fantasy team to normalize Heatwave?

When do you plan on making up that 52.5 point gap on me?

 

[heatwave31]

jays are capable of being one of the top scoring offenses in the league. yes.

 

[Kate Upton]

Yeah..Bruce will have like a 2 week Hot streak...

Nah. He goes well for a month. You can't get the guy out.

Then he'll suck for 3 months.

Then he'll have another great month.

Heatster - you don't understand this normalization thing. I'll go through it once more for you:

If a Yankee is playing poorly, he will "normalize" back to good. If he is playing well, then he is playing with honor and tradition.

If another team's player is playing well, he will "normalize" back to mediocre or bad. If another team's player is playing poorly, well it's because he sucks.

Waiting on my daughter here, cant seem to connect to CBS well, can I get a Yankees score?

Agon is on fire!!
