The notion that a pitcher would be hesitant to sign because the team's starters didn't assemble adequate wins is absurd. You know who else doesn't care about this stat? Player agents. You brought up the example of deGrom. Not only is there zero evidence of deterrence but in fact two of the most acco...

Smitty is back

Garrett is back

If you were listening to the radio you'd have gotten the froggy sounds of John Gibbons

You said this made-up stat would "deter" a player from signing now you're making a completely different argument about players' feeeeeeelings

The only numbers that matter to top flight starting pitchers are the ones Steve Cohen will give them. Wins are have always been the most irrelevant stat for pitchers anyway, other than to signal something about the team in big numbers as show by this thread. Why should Jacob DeGrom's W-L influence a...

Today, the big wheel chose No. 273, "American Beauty," for the AMERICAN BEAUTY EP which seems like it came out last week but is in fact 10 years old and includes stuff left over from HIGH HOPES. I can't place what this song sounds like but it sounds like something. Not sure I like his warb...

Way to make em bring in Paul Sewald

Today on Radio Bossman, it's "Down in the Hole" our first taste of the 2014 album HIGH HOPES, which was a collection of leftovers from his late period along with covers and remakes, most showcasing Tom Morello. If "I'm on Fire" with Bruce singing through a telephone, playing fake...

whoa. That's cold from Stearns, releasing a former Brewer like that. Not that Omar didn't have it coming given his D and O this year.

Whoever the fuck is Luis Torrens

I tried to warn you

Lugo and Wheeler would be the beginning of a hell of a rotation

I was always ambivalent about DitD and wary of Bruce's video age. That BitUSA book is out now by the way. Today (#27) we go back THE RIVER and "I Wanna Marry You." This was a thematic notion that was icky to me when this was new and too old-fashioned sounding against the Joe Jackson & ...
