30/30 + batting title = MVP?

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

Varitek is so awful behind the plate, this is ridiculous. Rays are getting free bases at will.

Rays probably should have brought up Jennings earlier, but LEGEND OF SAM FULD and all that. ROFL

Vastradamas called it on day one of the season.

I give it to Kemp if the season ends today. Better defense at a premium position. Voters probably wouldn't agree tho.

Actually it was all about service time.

Rays probably would have called him a couple weeks earlier but he broke his wrist right around when they could have first called him up.

But yeah SAM FULD and all that.

Just wanted to make fun of the Sam Fuld phenomenon.

30/30 + batting title = MVP?

Wright went 30/30 and hit .325 in 2007.

...

sigh

Cajole has me depressed today with David Wright.

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

This home ump is a freaking joke. That Jaso pitch wasn't even close either. Maddon is about to get rung up.

It's funny because he has 2 HR today.

Oh and I would give the MVP to Kemp, yeah. But voters will go with Braun.

Dmncnby2k9 · Sep 17, 2011

damn i hope Duda gets his arse to winter league baseball and works out hard in the outfield.

Worse call than the Red Sox bunt early on.

Votto is so ace when runners are in scoring position.

Facing Bruce is so ace with a man on first.

I'd go Upton before Kemp personally but the three are close enough that either of them is a good pick. It won't be a Tulowitzki level snub at any rate.

I thought you were an offense-first guy. Yeah, they are close, but only because UZR gives Upton a 14 run advantage. Kemp is crushing him at the plate.

I'm bias to team performance because of the name of the award. If it's close I go to the guy whose Value mattered.

I don't exclude non-contenders mind you, but it's an effective tie-breaker.

Maybe I'm just getting disillusioned with UZR as the end-all-be-all for defensive evaluation, too. Kemp is a full two wins above pretty much everyone going by B-Ref WAR.

The_Inquisitor · Sep 17, 2011

Good job lolriels.

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

Desmond Jennings intimidates so much, drawing 4 pitch walks with not a single pitch within 3 feet of the strike zone.

Until someone adds a "Most Feared" factor war will continue to be useless.

Nah, Beckett was just pitching to the ump's strike zone.

I would call it "Fear Factor." I think Upton would benefit from that category, too.

They took him out for Aceves.

I know they're both fatasses but Aceves is definitely slimmer.

Kemp would lose at least 2.76 runs based on his McGrady-ness.

Holy crap, Jaso sucks.

Man that's the second time I've completely forgot who's pitching. Goddamn Bombay Sapphire.

Fenix · Sep 17, 2011

Lol, Bautista's 1 for 1 through 8 innings.

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

LONGOOOOOOOOOO.

What a play. So sick.

eznark · Sep 17, 2011

Nice play!

Doytch · Sep 17, 2011

Wööööööw

verbum · Sep 17, 2011

Houston, Kansas City, Florida, and Baltimore all have scored more runs than the Braves so far tonight. And they are playing for what?
Bad news Braves, every year it seems like the Braves just can't hold any kind of lead in the standings.
Just pay Derek Lowe to go away next year. And please pay Linebrink to go away now.

Edit: It looks like the Cardinals refuse to win as well. 2-2 in the bottom of the 9th.

Fenix · Sep 17, 2011

Fuckin' bases loaded blue balls tonight, Robertson will have a heavy karmic price to pay next year.

Cathcart · Sep 17, 2011

Choooooooooooooooch!

eznark · Sep 17, 2011

Holy shit.

MLB refuses to lose the Red Sox!

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

Lolllllll. This is such a joke. Unbelievable.

who the fuck does adam lind think he is? asshole.

edit: omg, Chavez! Yes! That's a man who knows how to play 3rd base!

Fenix · Sep 17, 2011

Of course Lawrie scores the winning run.

Edit:
VVVVVV Jays are perfect at home in extras bro, this was obviously inevitable. VVVVVV

Malo · Sep 17, 2011

Another walk off against the Yankees, I am shocked.

Doytch · Sep 17, 2011

<- Swag motherfucker!

weekend_warrior · Sep 17, 2011

Fucking asshole canada team. this shouldn't even count, it's being played in canada for christs sake. why not just play in the north pole on the ice with the polar bears and penguins. fuck canada.

Y2Kev · Sep 17, 2011

who gives a shit? girardi plays absolute trash in the late innings.

Y2Kev · Sep 17, 2011

HERE LIES THE RAYS' SEASON

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

It's all up to BJ Upton.

Oh well there's always next season.

darkside31337 · Sep 17, 2011

All right BJ I had faith in you!

Oh god, don't fail us, Longo.
