True Giants fans do. Fuck the warriors
You just hating cuz you're stuck with the Kings. I'm not even a GS fan, I knew SF had the game once they scored so no hurry to switch it back.

I've become a pro at the nba lottery on the plus side.
Jaw. Floor.
edit: Fujinami just finished a CG shutout, 2H 10K 3BB. Wants to be the man now that Messenger has been sent down.
Hah. My son and I have been playing that on Wii U VC. It's still surprisingly fun in VS even though it's clunky. Especially when the catcher's hand detaches from his body to follow the ball.

Fernando Abad has absolutely fallen apart this year in every possible metric. =(

Dave Cameron in a chat today predicted a 15 year/$600 million contract for Bryce Harper if he hits free agency at 26. And I don't think he was kidding.

You would have to be an absolute moron to sign anyone for a 15 year deal, and yet I imagine 2-3 teams would make that offer. They'll go on to regret it just like the Hamilton/A-Rod/Pujols types.

I don't know, if Bryce keeps playing the way he's playing, you are likely going to get 7-8 years where that is a bargain. He's only going to be 26.

A 15-yr deal to a 26-yr old is not nearly as bad as the deals front offices have given to players on the wrong side of 30.
It would still be a dumb contract (given his history with the DL), but at least in Harper's case you're getting a good amount of what should be his prime years

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Given what Stanton signed and that Harper's a Boras guy, those numbers don't seem out of the realm of possibility.

The only thing that would make it more Cardinals was if La Russa was the little satan on the shoulder guy.
Also, years on deals are completely and utterly meaningless. Stanton has a mega year deal, but he has options every single year once he makes $115 M IIRC. So more often than not, the bulk of the back end of these baseball deals are just prolonged continued options.

Anyone who has ever parked their car at an A's game knows that the club's reaction to drug use is relaxed to say the least.

Astros still have the best winning % in the AL. And we're almost to Memorial Day...
XiaNaphryz
LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Meaning plenty of time to crash and burn!
He will make 40 mil per easily if he stays healthy and is as good as his pedigree says he is. Inflation and time alone will ensure that. 15 years is total insanity though, even at 26.

There is, but Memorial Day is like the 1/3rd mark of the season. We're no longer within the first few weeks of the season. The fact that the Astros are still keeping this pace is encouraging.
Carpe Libertatem

Today is the 25% mark (more or less), so not quite. But the banked wins guarantee they'll be a contender down the stretch most likely

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Giants did the same thing last season before nosediving. They were lucky to recover enough to sneak in as the second wildcard.

Houston Astros, best team in baseball.
Why do you hate Houston so much?
XiaNaphryz
LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
What hate? I simply bring the objective voice of reason!
Hate is reserved for the Doyers.
still only the best team in the AL.
they are tied standings wise with the cards, but the cards have the better win percent so would still be considered in front of the astros.

Wassup with Polanco getting benched? WTF do they have to lose?
More of Hurdle's weird lineups. I mean I like the guy and there's no denying his results but sometimes his lineups are bizarro. from the outside it almost looks like he's tying himself in knots to avoid pissing off Mercer by playing Kang more. So Polanco draws the short straw from a group of guys who have been struggling. Harrison plays RF tonight (can't sit him, his bat is waking up & NH is probably under pressure from the extension), Kang at third, and Mercer stays in at SS. I'd rather have Mercer sitting, Kang at SS, and Polanco playing.
At least Kang is getting in the lineup consistently. It took way to long for that to happen.

It's a shame Trout didn't get to reach free agency. It would've been awesome to see the precedent for an elite young player on the open market.
