  1. Could it be possible that the training staff has him on a bulking/strength program before he starts his conditioning program prior to training camp? You know the one where you bulk up, gain tons of strength, muscle and fat... Then you proceed to cut the fat while working on your cardio. Maybe, just maybe the training staff knows a thing or two about off season work....
  2. Yup, I'd rather keep him than JB... Sadly, both will probably be gone ...
  3. Stro... You gotta stop throwing the ball away. Okay? Just chill, and stop handing the other team free runs.
  4. I love his energy! Focused and intense, but never gets rattled.
  5. If this team ever puts it all together (Pitching, Defence, And Hitting 1-9), It would be scary fun to watch.... We just haven't seen it this year.
  6. If the bats don't heat up soon, they're gonna fall off. The pitching has been stellar most of the year, but eventually you need to score some runs. They better figure it out in a hurry.
  7. Being released only to sign on right after as a "special advisor" ... Wish I could do my job terribly and then get "let go" only to return as a "consultant" ... HA!
  8. Well, I'm enjoying watching Edwin play, but it's going to be sad when he leaves for Boston in the offseason.
  9. I too have been a long time fan, but only the last 4-5 years have I been following the game more closely (Watching almost every game, watching other teams and going to Toronto to watch live). So my knowledge of these situations isn't very extensive. Seeing as you put it like that, I would probably have to agree, even though I don't really like it. Hopefully the change of routine doesn't mess with Sanchez too much, and he can continue to contribute to the teams success. Thanks for the perspective ST.
  10. I agree, analytics. You know that stat that suggests Sanchez has been on of the most efficient starters in all of baseball this year? And that other one that says he allows the least amount of runs in the AL... Yea.. Analytics. You seem to be quite knowledgeable with the game of Baseball, so tell me your true opinion on moving Sanchez to the pen. Is it really that likely a pitcher gets hurt without any sign of fatigue? Even Martin voiced his confusion and dislike of the idea, and I would think the guy who has been his catcher all season would have a pretty good feel for the situation.
  11. The reasoning that's been bantered about is his innings count. He's a young pitcher and they want to protect his arm. The idea is that once they reach a certain innings worked they become more prone to injury. I'm sure they've done their homework and it probably is the best direction to go, but I have a hard time watching it happen. He's been one of the best starters in the Majors this year, and now you've just took him out of your already shallow starting rotation.
  12. JD "Hey Gibby, put me in and let me end this BS" JG "GET IN THERE MVP!"
