    With two Great Players (even though young) Why aren't the Suns better?

    Just an outsider perspective: PHX sucks because their owner sucks and that trickles down to their GM and their coach. You can draft talent, but if it’s not the right talent to coalesce into a successful team then it’s not worth much. Unless you get a unicorn and even then it’s not a...

    Arizona Basketball 2018-2019

    It’s a win, and that’s always better than a loss, but any win over ISU without Wigginton playing is tainted.

    2018 MLB Awards Finalists Announced

    Cy Young is not an MVP award so “team performance” should not factor and anyone judging a pitcher by wins hasn’t understood baseball for over a decade.

    Stark: What happens when ‘bullpenning’ madness meets the free-agent starter market?

    You all know the story of the 3 blind men grabbing the elephant and all proclaiming it to be a different thing (leg :: tree, trunk :: snake, etc..)? That’s most fans who attempt to proclaim what an organization does and doesn’t utilize to win/lose.

    Stark: What happens when ‘bullpenning’ madness meets the free-agent starter market?

    BP usage since 1969 has had more of an affect on the game than the DH could ever have, but because it’s been a slower creep the traditionalists have complained less.

    What minor to major league conversion are you using to go from 11 HR in 440 AB this year and 0 HR in 195 AB last year translates to “a 20 to 25 HR guy in the majors”?

    Diamondbacks plan to explore trade market..

    OT: Cubs' Theo Epstein admits there's frustration in Cubs' clubhouse over constant lineup shuffling

    Kinda like all those Cardinals WS won with a former A’s and ChiSox manager. Kinda like that Phillies WS won with a former Tribe manager. I mean, it’s obvious AL managers can’t win in the NL.

    The Ultimate 2018-19 MLB Free-Agent Primer

    Around Sept of 2015 or so, there was a big push to sign Pollock to a 5-6 year deal, buying out his arb years. A few posters were passionately for somebody long term deal whereas I argued that Pollock is exactly the kind of player you ride arb out and let go if you’re a GM. The DBacks smartly...
