It's a small class, don't think I can discreetly wear headphones, but I'll gameday it.

Gameday is a fucking beautiful thing.

So I've come up with a lesson plan for my students to write their own version of talking baseball about their school team and many YouTube videos later and coincidently the same HoF ceremony this year, a what if question came to mind and now I propose to MLBGAF.
What if the 'spos didn't trade Randy Johnson to Seattle and still ended up fleecing the Doyers for Pedro, and no strike in '94? What kind of baseball world would we be in then?

Your first mistake was reading MLB Trade Rumors.
If he was gonna get paid 7/$130 he would have to average ~3 wins per year for the next 7 years. ($6.5m per win)
I guess that's not too terrible considering how much he has been worth in the past...
Whoops DP.
The wildcard is just the minimum expectation if things go wrong. I fully expect the Blue Jays to catch the Yankees. 13 games left against them to show who's boss.
Expos history makes me cry.
The treatment of the Expos by Selig makes me furious.
This is precious.

Not only does inflation exist (which drives up cost of wins in layer years), but assuming that teams pursue FA in this way is flawed. $/win is mostly good in figuring out how valuable a player has been in regards to their contract
7/130 doesn't seem like a stretch to me, especially with no QO reducing his value
Someone's comment on Pinstripealley pretty much sums it up "I mean he hasnt texted me yet for the number of my PED guy, so I guess hes clean, now."

Because fuck having hope, right?
It seems like I can't hate the Rays like I do the rest of the AL East no matter what I do.

Why did CSN Chicago have a pictured of a supermodel imposed on the screen? I turn around and that's what I see.

Talking about some Victoria Secret/MLB clothing thing. I thought that looked really odd when the graphic popped up on screen too

Fantastic. Will steal.
So been reading "The Game: Inside the Secret World of MLB Power Brokers" and holy shit at some of the stuff Selig pulled. What a dirtbag.

O/U 3 hits allowed by Severino tonight?

What a bunch of fuck ups the Rays are. Holy Shit.
White Sox baserunner steals 2nd. Cabrera misses the catch and the ball literally hits him in the face, so the runner goes to 3rd. I think Cabrera is working for Chicago this game.

he's old and bitter that time is passing him by. can't wait until Sox fans turn on him.
I haven't been this excited about a rookie since.....
well ever! I am actually really excited about our future pitching. Severino, Betances, Warrenm, Eovaldi, just on and on. if we can just produce in bat from the minors we are set. set!
oh lord....
ok enough of this hope bullshit. 60-45 and 5.5 up. that's called reality. look at our hitting right now. the bullpen is strong and the pitching while still shaky is still serviceable and capable of competing against anyone. nobody is stopping from feeling happy but Blue Jays fans need to stop talking about the division. it ain't happening boys.

A literal walk-off. What a perfect clusterfuck for Rays to lose it.
heh
two intentional walks to only walk in the winning run.
I'll take the win but that's not an exciting finish for either team ><;

Valencia may find himself starting quite a bit if they decide to shift Lawrie to 2B.
Thanks Jays.
Thanks Jays.

I went to a playoff game once! But it was the Brooks Conrad game in 2010. And we all wanted to throw ourselves off the top of the Ted. So it was the exact opposite of your experience.

O.... K?
I wasn't trying to say that the Jays were stupid for putting him on waivers or that the A's got over for getting him. I was just looking forward to seeing the guy play more.
Take it easy, Canada.
Treat him well.
As with most A's... he'll do really well in a bigger role than he'd get elsewhere. Then, just as he really gets going and starts to peak, he'll leave via free agency or be traded to a contender.
Way of the A's.

I still think Lawrie is best at 3rd. I see what they want to do though.
