  • (Quote) Probably. If his prime years were with the Jays WS teams in the early 1990's, he probably gets the same recognition Morris gets. If you move his years into the saber era, I bet he wins a couple CY Youngs as well.
  • The one guy I wanted to mention in the same era as Morris is Dave Stieb. I always thought he was better than Morris but he never had the teams behind him that Morris did. I thought he was as good or better than anyone in the 80's. I think he woul…
  • (Quote) Yes and no. Compared to Jack Morris career yes. The difference between them in voters eyes are the two dominant WS years by Morris. Martinez didn't have the same opportunity to play on dominant teams like Jack did. Just comparing number…
  • (Quote) St Louis scored 2 in the 9th and the Mets didnt get a chance to bat. In that case, if the home team isn't winning, it reverts back to the last full inning.
  • "Sportbetfunding and other money suppliers sends bettors money through paypal to offshore casinos." They don't send it with paypal. They accept it from the customer thru paypal, looks like they send it to the books with Bitcoin if you re…
  • Don't know if you are still having the issue but I can log on with Firefox.
  • (Quote) Chris Sale says slow down young man. Besides my heir apparent may be in Tampa right now.
  • I had to switch to Dish 7 years ago because of a tree in a neighbors yard. I've been fine with them. I don't care about the Sunday Ticket, only teams I care to watch are NE and Atlanta and I usually get one of them every week as my regional game. …
  • (Quote) 1/2 game is worth about 50 cents.
  • (Quote) Not a big difference between 7.5 OV -123 and 8 OV -115(BM is at 8 -110 which is pretty much = 7.5 OV -125)
  • (Quote) Not sure he ever fully committed to Michigan. It was never reported around here. Most people here were convinced it was going to be Michigan or Wisconsin and the first news reported on a commitment was to Wisconsin. May hear something di…
  • (Quote) They got a kid from the high school in my city coming in 2019. ESPN has him in the top 20 in the class. OL, Logan Brown. Big strong kid, with a frame to easily add to his 285 lbs, won the state shot put title by close to 6 feet this year…
  • (Quote) I see people get inducted to the Hall of Fame for "contributions to the game" and always wondered, why not Tommy John? Few contributed more than being the guinea pig to the surgery that would prolong many pitchers careers. That …
  • (Quote) Oaklawn doesn't having rolling doubles.
  • (Quote) Look in a mirror. See the smiley face at the end, that usually means a joke to most people. Lighten up Francis.
  • You do know the different time zones, right? :)
  • (Quote) If you just need Pinnys closers, you get them from the live odds site on here? Doesn't BOL open around 1pm (talking eastern time).
  • (Quote) I don't keep Pinnys closing lines. Most of the time games are up by noon the next day.
  • (Quote) They were in the playoffs 2 months ago. That was to win the division and get the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference.

  • (Quote) Embrace the hate. Didn't see the first PI call but the 2nd was a mugging. If Ramsey didn't do it, NE would have had the ball there anyway since he was beaten on the play. It's like listening to the Jags bitch about the difference in pena…
  • It's about 85%, favorites who win SU cover about 77% of the time.
  • (Quote) 2nd half 2014 season. His overall numbers still were great even though it was his worst season in the majors. Pre all star .310-.606-1.005 Post all star .257-.502-.849 Now an .849 OPS would be fine for most but for Trout, it is noticeabl…
  • 95% of rookies have a 3 year pattern to start their career, or some variation to it. Some may start with a quick cup of coffee where they struggle(Trout) but starting from their first full time job in the majors, most follow the same pattern. The …
  • (Quote) He's a freak, totally underappreciated from those outside the hard core baseball people. His batting eye is up there with anyone I have ever seen, never seen a hitter spit on so many "pitcher pitches" in my life. I think his sea…

  • (Quote) Good to hear. There are so many talented players who can't handle being pushed. They are used to dominating everyone and they can't handle a little competition. Some people reach that level earlier than others but you can't get any bette…
  • (Quote) Good spot for him. No lose situation unless he handles it bad. Pitches well, it sticks in the coaches head for next fall. Doesn't throw well but doesn't pout or let it bother him, coach will like that. When you walk off the mound, no on…
  • Maybe now their coverage of video games will go up. They took the S out of ESPN a few years ago.
  • (Quote) Unless he sat on the ground when he should have been backing up a base, sounds like a cop out. Tell him not to smack the ground(or anything) with your pitching hand, and be done with it. My college coach had simple rules. When you are on…
  • (Quote) Already on the DL
