Did Frozen get perm'd too?

It's been about a month since his last post, so it was either a month or a perma. I know he's been banned a few times before.

I tried to save him...

Gotta do a better job next time, Daedalus.

[Mr. Enigma]

Top two names being discussed right now to replace Freeman for the next 2 and a half months are Justin Morneau and Matt Adams. There's been no talk of re-signing Ryan Howard and bringing him up.

 

[Earthbound64]

he'll probably be fine (especially since he's inexplicably only 27 years old?), but that would be pretty lame if he blossomed into a monster power hitter only to have it all fucked up by one random pitch that got away

At the time the youngest AL player to 100 HRs, at 22 years old... and then, later that year... all it takes is 1 pitch:

(Note: This is a relatively less-gruesome picture)

Passed away in 1990 at the age of 45.
RIP Tony C.

Billy was at Fenway when I was there the other day.

Ewww

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Deal is done. Braves sign Loney. He's expected to join the team tomorrow.

Loney hit .200/.351/.222 in 57 PAs with the AAA Tigers before being released.

Nothing like a Fister to Pujols.

 

[CygnusXS]

Projected WAR difference of like -6 over two months

Hopefully its just a minor league deal. I'll take ruiz, peterson or garcia at first.

 

[timetokill]

OK so all we need to beat the Giants is have Kershaw pitch every game

Easy peasy

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Cahill was looking like amazing trade bait for the Padres before he went on the DL. Cheap one year deal and he was pitching way above his career numbers.

Cubs fixed him.

The Jays are fielding one of the worst lineups I've seen in a long, long time.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Correction. It looks like they are going to send Loney to AAA and try out Ruiz at 1B.

 

[3N16MA]

Freeman has a higher fWAR in his last 195 games than Loney has his entire career.

 

[jello44]

Correction. It looks like they are going to send Loney to AAA and try out Ruiz at 1B.

His name is Rio and he's playing at first base

 

[Earthbound64]

His name is Rio and he dances on the sand

ftfy

 

[CygnusXS]

Probably shouldn't intentionally hit batters in the first when you can't get outs.

 

[RBH]

 

[Lexxism]

Lmao. Ceciliani got injured after hitting a home run. I just can't. Just fucking end this season already

 

[PROh1bited]

He's a bum anyways.

But still, it's pretty funny, the home run, and the injury.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

No one told me Alex Rodriguez the Baseball Gawd was in the booth tonight for Stanks-Royals?

This is appointment viewing!

 

[Line_HTX]

Julio Teheran has a 9.51 ERA in 5 starts at Suntrust Park. He has a 0.71 ERA in 4 road starts.

 

[PROh1bited]

Maile with a jack!

STROMAN!!!!!!

 

[Lexxism]

[The Elite]

Yeah.....about that.....

[The Elite]

Jay's should just roll with this lineup everyday. Stroman included.

It's going to be okay. Just... you just have to remember you could be a Padre fan.

 

[Earthbound64]

He's no James Creighton.

 

[PROh1bited]

Braves gaf. What are those metal boxes in front of the seats in the outfield? Personal air conditioning?

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Looks like either White Sox or Cardinals will sign Luis Robert on Saturday

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Can't wait to be the runner-up again.

 

[Chris R]

White Sox gonna work the Mariners tonight, I feel it

 

[detectiveconan1]

Well that could have been much worse. Thank goodness for that double play.

Edit: Another dumb running mistake costs us a run...

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Can't wait to be the runner-up again.

Seems to happen a lot :lol

Have to hope the lack of high picks in this year's draft pushes them to go big

 

[BFIB]

I'd be shocked if the Cards landed Robert. We love being the bridesmaid.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

We did spend $110m this offseason on Cecil and Fowler, so maybe Mo has learned from Price/Heyward/Kang/etc (although we dodged a bullet with those last two)

Still think White Sox sign him since they haven't done many international signings tho
