Harry Chappas Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 07:43 AM) Buster_ESPN Buster Olney There is a sense in FLA front office that Jeffrey Loria and David Samson will be taking a greater role in making player personnel decisions. throw the ozeroo in that mix and that franchise will be epic......careful what you ask for oz I see a 100 loss season being an annual thing down there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Buster_ESPN Buster Olney Of all the teams, the most difficult rebuilding/remodeling work for 2012 belongs to the Twins, IMO.

southsider2k5 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/page/rumbli...-loaded-closers 1. Now that Tim Wakefield has made it through seven straight fruitless attempts at his 200th win, it's time for this important alert, courtesy of loyal reader Aaron Byrd-Leitner: If Wakefield doesn't figure out a way to win a game over the next three weeks, 2011 will become the first season since (ready?) 1879 in which NO active pitcher had 200 wins. The active leader at the end of that 1879 season: 43-game winner Tommy Bond, who finished that year with 195. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Jacoby Ellsbury now leads all of baseball in fWAR. I was considering him for MVP before, but now I think he has a decent shot to win it. After all, he plays on a good team and Bautista plays on a mediocre one.

He's having a year that mimics most of Rickey Henderson's prime years. I have no idea where the power has come from. I'd say it's between him, Bautista and Granderson.

Ellsbury's wOBA is .007 lower and plays a much better center field. The difference in their run production is a mere 3 runs. I think I'd give Ellsbury the nod if it was between those two.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Strasburg pulled after 3 innings and 57 pitches. Really labored in the 2nd inning. FB was only hitting 92. Davey Johnson had to go out and check on him. Looked better in the 3rd inning. K'd a couple guys while the FB was topping out at 96. They obviously weren't going to take any chances. I could see them just shutting him down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
