At least stanton plays everyday, seen Kershaw's contract? (disclaimer, i think he's worth it relative to other contracts im just using it as a comparison. I think it's something like 10,000 dollars per pitch he throws)

I would pay for the chance to pitch in the big league's

The only thing that gets me through last season and this one... is that our lines in 2015 could be...


Moulson - McDavid/Eichel - Girgensons
Armia - Grigorenko - Ennis
Hodge/Foligno - Reinhart - Gionta
Larsson - McCormick - Deslauris/Kaleta

Myers - Risto
Zads - Pysyk
McCabe - Gorges
Ruhwedel

Enroth/Neuvirth/Ullmark/Hackett/Makarov


With guys like Baptiste, Carrier, Fasching, Hurley, Compher, Possler, and Lemieux still in the wings.

Eesh another lottery pick here we come. I like our depth of young players , but that NHL roster is pretty bad still. Very young team.

agreed, that team is not going to make the playoffs. The best part about next year is watching a young team develop chemistry and progress together, something we dont have to look forward to this year.

I've got a full proof plan, bean a hitter start a brawl, save face by not having to pitch to someone like Mike Trout

No, they aren't. Hackett needs to be the first to go, but Marrone is proving to be a wimp. Punting on 4th and 6 on the opponent's 43 down by 10 with 9 minutes to go is simply sackless football, plain and simple.

with all due respect, I can't figure out why everyone's so upset he punted on a fourth and six...sal capaccio (?) was doing post-game and was besides himself over that decision...i'm pretty sure they were pitching an 0-fer on third downs, why on earth would anyone believe they'd make it on fourth down?

Zadorov will be better than Myers!

Risto and Zadorov will be something special in years to come, time to get what you can for Myers.

McCabe & Pysyk


Say goodbye #57

hope you're right...still don't need to pull the trigger on a myers trade...kid's still only 24 which is still pretty young for a defenseman

You need to go for that. If you have that much faith in your defense, then you should have no problem risking the Dolphins taking the ball at the 43. It took the Phins two plays to get to midfield and they ended up with a FG anyway.

i like your style, although it may require some taunting since they would brush off one of our circa 70 mph pitches like dust on the plate

They won't be trading him don't worry. Murray isn't an idiot

So true.

I was actually alright at pitching in high school, heater topped at around the mid 80's but never had the stamina or focus to make anything of it.

I'd envision this going like the futurama episode where the one eyed girl makes it for the Mets soley because of her hit by pitch stats

Murray isn't an idiot, that's why he will look to deal Myers.

they've been relying on their defense since the first quarter of the kc game, which happens to be the last time the offense scored a touchdown...the offensive line had no answer to what the fins' d was doing and Hackett had mask the problems...marrone, imo, was in a lose/lose situation if Schmidt screwed up the punt, which he did

I have to say, I've been pleasantly surprised by his play. Wasn't a fan of the pick at the time but I'm happy to see him prove me wrong.

Agree Irish!
Get something for him before we can no longer get anything for him besides a 3rd round pick or worse.
Dude needs to vacate this city.
Yesterday would not have been soon enough for me.
I'd love to watch him trip over his own feet and blue lines on any other team not named the Buffalo Sabres.
Myers sucks...period!

pretty impressive, to be honest i have no idea what i topped out at but i would imagine it was somewhere in the high 70s. I had the same problem as you and would have been best served as a closer (but that really wasnt a thing), i almost always threw my arm out everytime. I lived for playing center field and chewing the seeds from my back pocket

You have to have a winning mentality, punting is the opposite IMO. It says we have no confidence, please hand us the ball back soon

Hat, I think it's just the frustration of some of us older posters on this site that have seen it all.
Zadorov play says it all about Myers (making him look bad) Zad's sticking up for teammates, dropping the mits and throwing his body around! Calling out #57 for who he is

I won't speak for you but one of the things i discovered later on (seems to be true of a lot of young pitchers these days) was that my poor shoulder posture was cutting my pitch count significantly cuz it just couldn't handle the movement the way it should. Just one of those little things that can mean so much.

Fun fact, in my younger days (slow pitch softball days) i actually played against Tanner's golden boy Max Domi
