The yankees need to promote Mason Williams, Tyler Austin, and Gary Sanchez already since all three are raking in low A.

Indeed. I was banned by Evilore cause I didn't agree with him on something about Diablo 3 pre-release.

Wow, he got banned for that? What a load of shit.

I like how EvilLore's line is full of cursing and anger, but harSon's is actually calm and reasonable. Of course, let's ban him.

Looks like after Evilore's last post in that thread ... someone made a comment (Wolfe) about it again ... and then he got banned.

It is pretty hilarious.

In baseball news, the M's apparently have a deal in place with their 3rd pick Zunino.

The Chris Schwinden 2012 world tour continues today. He was just claimed by the Yankees off waivers from the Indians.

 

[Adam Blade]

Trout for MVP?

 

[Macattk15]

Trout for MVP?

Of the Angels maybe. I think Hamilton is having a better year.

Though it isn't as far apart as I thought it would be.

This is the funniest story in baseball right now. He's going to appear on more teams than Miguel Batista at this rate.

Cano for MVP.

excuse me I need a few minutes alone with his wRC+

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

um... layman's term for wRC+?
edit: ok I looked up what wOBA means... think I got the jist of it.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

The + adjusted metrics are all handy because you can tell how much better (or worse) someone is at a glance in each category. He's 51% better than the average player this season at creating runs.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

weighted runs created - measures offensive output

it adjusts for park factor and league, 100 is supposed to be average, the higher the number, the better

 

[Windu]

league avg. wRC+ is actually 96 this season and 89 for 2nd Basemen.

Gotta say I'm surprised Captain Kirk is in the lineup vs. a guy like Harang. I hope his issues are cleared up or Harang will eat him alive.

Yankees would be happy to go .500 in July I think

 

[Mr. Enigma]

yikes

At least the humidity is only 19%.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I think it's time to give up on Minor and Delgado for this season. They both suck shit.

 

[McNei1y]

that was a weird at bat with Flores and Espinosa.

 

[Y2Kev]

[The Frankman]

Not signing with the Yankees was smart. Deciding to come to Philly... eh.

 

[cashman]

So now Mark Lowe to the DL. That now makes six Rangers pitchers on the DL.

 

[Sharp]

league avg. wRC+ is actually 96 this season and 89 for 2nd Basemen.

It needs to be readjusted then.

Also lol Barves.
