    DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION THREAD

    Couldn't be more disappointed. I like Ball, but I had my heart set on Frazier/Meadows or Stewart if he had happened to get past Minnesota.

    4/1 MLB Daily Thread OPENING DAY THREAD

    That would be true, if the pitch you are talking out wasn't outside, but go ahead and let your bias show.

    Rondo torn ACL...

    I'm as sad as any Celtics fan to see the end of an era, but now is the time to blow the team up. They were a fringe playoff team even with Rondo which in the NBA equates to purgatory. They're only 8 games out of the worst record and if Ainge does decide to blow the team up they should be able...

    Rauuuuuul!

    Cano had a WAR of 8.2 this year, good enough for 2nd in the majors behind the demi-god that is Mike Trout, are you seriously going to try to make this argument?

    Might Cabrera win the Triple Crown and not win the MVP Award?

    If Miggy wins the Triple Crown and not the MVP the writers need to give up their voting rights.

    Who is your NL Rookie of the Year?

    Some areas? Frazier has Harper beat in every single batting statistic (not to mention a substantial 75 point lead in OPS) aside form having one more triple and home run then Frazier so I'm not sure where this "some" is coming from. I'll give you the fact that he's 19, but the ROY goes to the...

    Who is your NL Rookie of the Year?

    The AL ROY is allready sewn up so discussion on that is obviously pointless. However, the NL ROY is still up for grabs even though I believe there would be a clear winner if the season ended today. For me, it's Todd Frazier, with Wilin Rosario coming in second. Whose your ROY?

    Stephen Strasburg's Season Is Over.

    When he blows his elbow out in September in a meaningless game come back and talk to me about dumb this decision is. But, you are right though, as I don't see why he couldn't have been phantom DL'd and sat out September and been ready for the playoffs.

    The National League ROY goes to......

    Has to be Frazier at this point, his stats are just a cut above everyone else. I think Miley comes in a close second with Rosario finishing third.

    Blockbuster trade between Marlins/Orioles being discussed

    The Marlins are "knee deep" in trade discussions, but not necessarily with the Orioles. https://twitter.com/JimBowdenESPNxm/status/227830718871519232

    Blast From the Past: Nick Noonan

    Nick Noonan: .304 AVG, 6 HR, .362 OBP, .795 OPS, .433 SLG (356 AB) It's been a long time since the 2007 Draft, but Noonan has finally put together a breakout season as a 23 year old in the PCL. Granted, it's in the PCL, but his numbers shouldn't be scoffed out. Also, Noonan was converted...

    Kevin Gausman Unlikely To Sign w/ Orioles

    I think you are underestimating just how much the CBA has changed things. In the case of Appel, the Pirates can offer him a maximum of $3.84 Millon (Slot being 2.9 Million) wtihout giving up their first next year, so Appel is either going to sign for something close to that or he's going back...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    I'm done trying to defend my position. I've allready spoken about his OBP and why it's so low, I'm not going to mention it again. To all the naysayers, answer me this, if Rosario were to continue on his pace and ended up with 25/30 Home runs and around a .250/.275 AVG with an .800+ OPS at the...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    "Conveniently forgot?" When I wrote this the other night he had a better OPS the first I heard that Haper had passed Rosario was you stating he had a better one. You accused me of making my stats up, so all I said on the matter was that when I wrote this he had a better OPS, it's as simple as...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    I stated in my OP that Harper was going to win the ROY, I'm not denying that. Whether it's the hype behind him, the numbers, or just how important he is to his team the ROY will go to Bryce Harper.The point of this thread was to point out how good a season Rosario is having, and that his...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    At the time of writing this Rosario had a higher OPS. And you completely disregarded Rosario's twice as many home runs as Harper and surperior slugging percentage(whichI admit is directly tied to home runs, but you still left both out of your argument anyway) which is practically the definition...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    It's not like Rosario's production is a fluke, he has been one of the top catching prospects in the minors for the past couple years. However, Rosario has always struck out a lot, and he probably will never have a K% less then 15. But with those K's have come great power numbers, especially at...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    He has almost double the home runs as Harper, so I would say that is pretty damn significant. If you don't measure sucess by OPS, what are you you going to base it off of? Maybe I was a little agressive in saying "much better" but with a better OPS and almost double the home runs (in 70 less...

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    Agreed, they have been undervalued ever since the product release. I am biased however, as I still have the 25+ Elites I bought in 2008.

    Wilin Rosario quietly putting up ROY type numbers

    Bryce Harper will undoubtledly win the NL ROY for the shear hype behind him. However, Rosario has put up much better numbers then harper, while playing a premium postion at the same time. The numbers don't lie. Wilin Rosario: .251 AVG 14 HR .542 SLG .822 OPS .280 OBP Bryce Harper: .274 AVG...
