RIPPA Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 He dragged the Yanks to the WS in 2009 In 2012 he came back in Sept and hit a couple of HRs down the stretch but was very mediocre. It just stood out because the rest of the team was doing its damnedest to not hit. After that - his body started breaking down. The year off - at least early on - looks like it was the best thing that could have happened for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 what's funny is that he is going to end up with eligibility at both 1B and 3B (along with a DH/UTL spot) So he might end up being more valuable this year than a few years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Cubs bullpen blows the game late, then rebounds and we win it off Kimbrel. That'd already 3 games I'd say we'd have lost last year that we won this year. In other baseball news, nice start from the Mets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyWhioux Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 LOL The Royals are such a joke. About 6 people who have now been thrown out of this game after throwing at Lawrie again late in a 2-1 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Lucia Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Draft Kings is everywhere this year. MLB owns a chunk of them, and Draft Kings bought a massive ad deal as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Oh look, it's the same joke again that wasn't funny the last 5 quadrillion times it was made. Redmond needs to figure shit out quick. Bobby Valentine's probably slowly circling the stadium and pumping his fist with every opponent's hit.

The Man Known as Dan Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Oh look, it's the same joke again that wasn't funny the last 5 quadrillion times it was made. Yes, because the Cubs haven't won in a long time joke this thread has been swimming with are fresh and original material. Also, that wasn't a joke. If the team is really bad (which they might be) I wouldn't be remotely shocked if Stanton is in another uniform by the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Stanton is only making $6.5 this year and $9 million next year He also has a full no-trade Even if the Marlins totally changed their direction mid-season and revert back to the fun, mockable Marlins - they aren't trading Stanton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Marlins by the mid way point think there team is a mile off, this would technically be the right time to deal him. His value would never get any higher, and if he has a down year/bad injury, it could get significantly lower fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
