The ballot was confusing

Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

I am declaring Dan law. It is now Tuesday (Wednesday? Thursday???) and we will talk about cats, video games, and post that picture of bananas by the each.

HR can't be any worse than the Mooch.

David

You posted my question earlier, but didn't answer it! How many relief innings would Price have to throw for him to be more valuable as a reliever than a starter, considering he would probably be better and the innings would presumably be higher-leverage?

Dan Szymborski

4:35

120?

And he has to be used aggressively high-leverage

It's not like you can find him 66 IP with a LI of 3 or anything

Oddball Herrera

Yes, Reynolds made my announcer hall of fame with the comment about Canadians, I was in Vancouver at the time, people were so mad and it was so amusing. I'll take a cheap laugh over Chris Berman any day

The Hamburglar

You cannot walk Mitch freaking Moreland here.

Dan Szymborski

4:36

That seems like a dare.

Marlins "Man" - no real man would act like this

Tommy

4:37

does he have a slider?

Fox is somehow making postseason baseball worse than the regular season. And this coming from a red sox fan who watched saltalamachia, mike timlin, steve lyons, wade boggs, and LENNY FLIPPING DINARDO. (the red sox are also doing their part to make this less enjoyable)

Charlie

Are reverse splits for pitchers more indicative of actual talent than for hitters? Some Boston writers on Twitter criticizing Farrell for pinch hitting with Moreland when Devenski has .111 BAA against LHB.

Dan Szymborski

4:37

Fewer PA needed.

Dave Cameron

4:37

Yeah, change-up pitchers can run real reverse splits.

But you still don't want to quote single season splits as true talent.

ChatzMcGee

4:38

Devenski is a changeup champ.

botchatheny

dave has a 67% approval rating

The Hawk

4:38

He's back. Put the beer away guys

Dan Szymborski

4:38

Yeah, guys with screwbally-type wacky wrong way actions can have a reverse platoon split.

Jim Mecir comes to mind.

Dave Cameron

4:39

There's a guy no one has thought of in 20 years.

Dan Szymborski

4:39

Fernando had a reverse platoon split too

Anyone know why they're making dirty dancing jokes about keuchel?

I'd rather watch Geostorm than see this Sox lineup struggle any more.

The Geo Storm sounds like a $6,000 new car.

Dan Szymborski

4:41

I was always disappointed to find out a Geoduck wasn't a duck but a real fugly clam

You know like a duck with a little scientist hat.

Legeisc

4:41

Fernando got the reverse split by breathing out of eye lids like a lava lizard.

Guest

4:42

Ah, yes, bring in Eduardo Rodriguez vs a ton of RHBs coming up (sans McCann).

AdamZ

4:42

The Geo Storm was an actual car.

Kalas Meatloaf

4:43

Tommy

4:44

WTF , like why bother bringing him in

Dan Szymborski

4:44

A lot of circle change guys at least had closer than normal platoon splits, like john franco

Dave Cameron

4:44

I don't understand Farrell's bullpen usage at all today.
