2016 MLB Season Thread

Anyone else think the cubs play bryant at lots of positions to bump up his war?

Normal teams would force javy baez to play lf, not bryant. Or let javy play 2nd and put zobrist in the outfield

But nope. Gotta let your mvp play every position

There isn't a professional franchise that cares about increasing a player's numbers of the likes of Bryant.

I don't see how you can give MVP to anyone BUT Kris Bryant
Sorry Murph, Nolan and Seager

Should be unanimous

I'd give it to Rizzo before Bryant.  Rizzo has been a much better player against the better teams than Rizzo has.  Rizzo has feasted off of the really bad teams in the NL which inflates his numbers.  Rizzo's top 7 teams he hits against have five playoff teams in there.  Bryant only 3.  Rizzo also has nearly 200 more OPS against teams over 500.

This umpire has the widest strike zone I've ever seen and every batter is striking out looking haha

Miller just broke another guys ankles on a strikeout, nearly hit the dude too 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I'll be voting him #1 in best closer with 0 hesitation. He's a UNC guy too so that shows how much I respect him

you don't need a bullpen when you score 50 runs a game 

 

[Mexi]

Dodgers tried hard to sign miller
Also tried for trade for him. Yankees wanted jose de leon(#1 dodger prospect now that urias is a major leaguer)
Wasnt in the cards oh well

 

[Phil The Thrill]

You do when you give up 51

Saltalamacchia is so clutch.

If tebow was serious about baseball he'd play independent ball

Guys play and get discovered all the time. 2 guys that come to mind are scott kazmir and rich hill last year
Yeah those guys had pedigree, but there's other no names whove made it
And tebow is a name, so teams would keep an eye on him the way they did hill and kaz
