2014 MLB Season Thread

[Mexi]

Stras leads the NL in WAR for pitchers, 2.6 in 94 innings
Kershaw has 2.4 in 64 innings

JD Martinez was an excellent find by Dombrowski. 

 

[Teagz]

JD!

I fucking hate this Tigers team.  Take me out of my misery.

 

[Teagz]

Ausmus sucks.
 
 
 
 
I miss Leyland.

The Tigers are never going to win a World Series during an era that includes a Triple Crown winner, multiple Cy Young winners, multiple MVPs including the first MVP pitcher since Roger Clemens, and a division that hands them a postseason berth every year.  FML.

 

[snipezo]

Hell of a game in cinci right now

 

[RipCity32]

3 straight good outings for Nathan, hopefully he is back to form.

If you like to nerd out on baseball, this is a very enlightening read on JD: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/rule-5-dark-horse-j-d-martinez/

Was a good read. Certainly has progressed as a hitter.

It's funny how small tweaks can make such a difference

Crazy game baseball is.

"Know what the difference between hitting .250 and .300 is? It’s 25 hits – 25 hits in 500 at-bats is 50 points. There’s six months in a season, that’s about 25 weeks. That means if you get just one extra flare a week – just one – you get a ground ball with eyes, you get a dying quail, just one more dying quail a week ... and you’re in Yankee Stadium."

 

[snipezo]

Phew that was a wild game. Being down 8-0 early in the game woke up Toronto's bats.

 

[Mexi]

Broxton stays choking though

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Fucking fuck fuck

 

[Mobruler]

Fucking fuck fuck

 
If you're mad, you can always give me Doug Fister back for Robbie Ray, Ian Krol and Steve Lombardozzi.  Well I can't give you Lombardozzi back because we traded him for nothing, but I can replace him for another middle IF who doesn't do shit.

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

We keep fister, but we will take Krol back. Put him in this bullpen. He showed signs of potential with us.

Brad Ausmus is the HC of the Tigers??
