Panic Lineup: Call up Seager, call up Puig to take Ethier's spot, call up Lee, call up all the rookie pitchers and replace the entire bullpen.
Do it now! Yes?
@EephusBlue Fix it now!
@silver_linings_paul_(book) @Tony Fernandez (SVS Afficionado) @Tycho Blue Outliers Ryu and Jansen.
Grit so good that they play even better than they really are. So good that they don't make their stats better, yet bad on the stats, yet with no evidence that they're good, so good that you can't know they're good.
@silver_linings_paul_(book) @Tony Fernandez (SVS Afficionado) Took me a whole 5 minutes to type it up.
@Purple Drank @Tony Fernandez (SVS Afficionado) No, now you like my script or pass me some drank.
@Tycho Blue Probability is haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard. What's that law or large numbers about?
I like to imagine Stan Kasten calling Dave Cameron and asking him what went wrong.
Cameron - "You kept around Ned Colletti"
Kasten - "But everyone told me he was fine, that he just had his hands tied with not enough money"
Cameron - "Jones, Pierre, Schmidt, etc."
Kasten - "Fine, but how could it be that bad with a $200 million payroll"
Cameron - "Did you have a third baseman?"
Kasten - "Cruz looked good last year"
Cameron - "Then you went into the season with no third baseman. Then you took a risk on injured guys like Kemp and Crawford. Who were their backups?"
Kasten - "We had the gritty Schumaker, Shredder Punto, Hairy Jairston, and Juan Uribe"
Cameron - "You couldn't even keep a true outfielder like Castellanos on the 25-man in case something happened with Crawford or Kemp?"
Kasten - "But we wanted the defense!"
Cameron - "Yet you have no offense. Let me say it again, you kept around Ned Colletti"
@JackedNate Blame Donnie.
Did anyone get the measure on Kemp's donger last night?
@Disgruntled Goat Blech, do neither. I watch baseball for baseball.
@Disgruntled Goat @Tony Fernandez (SVS Afficionado) The Soft Parade was their best album. Listen to it and love it.
@(VND) Ummmmmm. I don't even know what to say to such a statement. Why wouldn't you care about K's?
@Purple Drank So what roster moves would you like to see for 2014?
@Baby Blue Drug dealer?
Matt Kemp's 2013 wRC+ is approaching Dee Gordon's career wRC+. 79 versus 73. But let's keep playing Kemp everyday and in the heart of the order . . .
