Figured you would find this interesting @Mr. Radpants
@doh you should really enjoy Chapter 4, which is all about being a cunt to obtain players!
Jokes aside, I'm halfway through and the book is great. Reminds me a lot of the first year I corched footbaw. I believed in ma'self and my theories about stuff, but when things actually started to come together and the team was winning it was an amazing feeling that goes way beyond the impact playing a sport does. Having everything come toghether perfectly at a whole team level is awesome. Then when things start to go wrong and you don't have direct control (as in playing) you feel helpless/worthless.

Just ordered this. Bart Scott.
I'm only half through but to me it is already better than moneyball to me. Give a couple of passive aggressive jake turkey stat nerds the keys to an organization and watch them hire a BTT player manager then the turf war starts.. HILARITY ENSUES. Start nerds are always so meek, lol.

Really weird he didn't want to test FA... Boras clients almost always do that. I think he would've gotten more than 175 too. He could just really like DC though too/wants @Mr. Radpants support?

One (more) blown elbow/mystery DL stint and he's another Ean Desmond/Kendrys Morales/Carlos Quinten pitching for a comeback contract. Take the money while you can and don't get (too) greedy. Look at poor Joe Mauer - looked like Johnny Bench and now he's about to hit leadoff at $25M/year. Besides, I'd guess Strasburg's hooked up with some loony church there and knew the Padres wouldn't pay him that amount.
Another great Boras asspounding of the dumbass Lerners. Can't wait to see him smoking dick on the DL or out-and-out pouting like Jayson Werthless.
Because you're stuck living in either DC, MD, or NOVA.

I'm going to th T___s game tomorrow against the O's after my doctor reads me the riot act. Anyone think I should bring my cleats with me? I can still hit 85 on the gun.

Don't you just love Nats "fans"? It's always great when the O's come to town and pound them like a $2 whore and all of the Pigtown Billies get to pour smuggled in Natty Boh on some Clarendon Needledick.

No chance. Have you looked at the bums the T___s are trotting out to start games?

Have you seen the shitshow in Atlanta? It's like watching a fucking AA team.
I'm pretty sure the Mississippi braves would win a series against the Atlanta braves

Indeed I have (against the Nasty Nats opening week) but I hadn't looked at their recent roster until just now. This is sad. I didn't know Reid Brignac was still alive, much less in Major League Baseball.
I don't throw around the words "worst player in the league" lightly. If it continues, we may see Ozzie Albies or dansby Swanson earlier than planned

Right now, I believe, the Phils are playing +6/+7 ball according to Pythagoras.
T Joseph to make his major league debut at first base tonight. Joseph has a slash line of .347/.370/.611 at Lehigh Valley (AAA). Joseph was drafted in the 2nd round in 2009 as a catcher. After a series of concussions in 2014, the Phils moved him from catcher to first base.
Darin Ruf optioned to AAA. Ruf has put up the mind-boggling slash line of .158/.206/.193
Only 2 doubles and 4 walks in 61 plate appearances.
