Some Numbers posted:Ask all the people who say David Ortiz should be in the HoF. How long have full time DH's been around? If I remember right when the rule came around it was mostly used as a half day off for a regular position player? I could be very wrong here, but I'd think I'd remember someone earlier than Edgar as a DH if so.

The beat the streak leader is 6 picks away from the 5.6 million prize. Today he picked Ezequiel Carerra and Kevin Pillar. Heh

He was still playing a handful of games in the field, but Harold Baines was DHing a vast majority of the time starting in 1987.

Pancakes posted:N: Matheny has good opinions and makes valid points, makes Maddon seem crotchety, old and dumb (in my opinion). Matheny is on point here (  ) and Maddon's elaborate hand wringing over the slide rule is legit embarassing to read. Is the slide rule perfect? No, and honestly I'm not sure how you fix it. Is an imperfect rule that so far seems to do a good job of preventing horrible season-ending injuries better than no rule at all? Unequivocally yes. Same goes for the Posey rule that Maddon also likes to cry and waste the Cubs challenge on continuously.

Darude - Adam Sandstorm posted:Ya its him and Yaz. Yaz was already well into his 40s when he started DHing full time, which he only did for a couple seasons. McRae and Don Baylor started in their early 30s and remained there till they retired.

Heh Well, at least he's locked up the season-long prize, even if Carerra doesn't get a hit today. I wonder if that would put a damper on entries? E: Carerra didn't get the hit but the guy could still have his mulligan if he hasn't used it and they're doing that again this year? tadashi fucked around with this message at 03:06 on May 16, 2017 |

Julio Cruz posted:That's exactly my point. Other teams would have cut/benched/at the very least moved down the order a SS that age with that little production, but the Yankees didn't because they wanted him to get 3000 hits to boost his HoF credentials. That's because the Yankees understand how to make money Rad Valtar posted:How about nobody gets in until Bonds does because it's a loving travesty. Bonds was a doping cheater (and continued to be one after they started actually enforcing it, idiot) and should never get in

Kalenn Istarion posted:He couldn't even break 3,000 hits in spite of cheating and playing for 3 years longer than Jeter Derek Jeter played on teams loaded to the gills with steroids and won titles because of that. And he got a whole bunch of extra PAs because his steroid using teammates scored more runs and kept the lineup moving. How's that for a hot take! Also he probably used steroids and left a gift basket for his dealer.
