MLB Offseason 2014-15 - Page 3 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Rays went from dead last to the world series once (that offseason was the only time I ever bet division/AL/WS in MLB, still sad they didn't win the WS that year)

20/1 is too high but there's enough casuals in bigger markets that will fire at about any price.

thread tone suggests the cubs are the pirates or the brewers. Cubs do have 3 division wins in the last 12, that's not terrible in what was a six team division.

A year or two ago I argued that Jason Heyward might be a good but not elite defensive player. This seems like a reasonable time to admit that I was wrong.

As much of a tool as Theriot is it's also why a statnerd could never be an MLB manager

And the closest we've had was surely one of a kind. RIP Earl Weaver.

Can't imagine a whole lot happens over the next few days other than decisions on qualifying offers... we should do a trivia.

According to Fangraphs, there were 12 3+ WAR position players who had a walk-rate lower than 5.01% (minimum 100 plate appearances). Let's have it.
