Yea it is, 650 is not bad for a 3rd line center that isn't worth 4.3 a year

650 what? They're projecting him to be top 6 forward, which would make 4.3 a bargain.

puts him at 242. Just ahead of vitale, spaling and nielsen. That's not why they paid him.

coho, ennis, roy, etc

paid for expectation

if he remains a third liner, he is moved in 2 years

if he steps up and points up 50 points a year on second line, he is a steal

Exactly, that's why they risked paying him now. Not because they expect him to be 3rd line centre and because he lost more face-offs than he won.

Big picture they really had no choice. With Giroux and Voracek eating up 16.5 mil on the cap, they need to start looking at a few bargains to have enough cap left over to fill out the roster. If they were going to gamble on any of their own guys, he would be it.

my problem is giving both off, with travis out and EE having a blah batting average


I'd change the batting order

1. revere
2. tulowitzki
3. donaldson
4. bautista
5. encarnaciĆ³n dh
6. martin
7. colabello/smoak 1b
8. pilar
9. whoever is at second base


if navaro is behind the plate, drop him to 7th and adjust 5 and 6 based on first base and dh

I like the way it is right now because it means there's not easy out in any given inning. Smoak, Pilar and Goins would on most occasions be an easy 1, 2, 3. Sneak Revere in there and suddenly you're pitching to back to back lead off guys.

It's moot anyways since as soon as Travis comes back they'll be putting him in the lead off spot.

I was not mocking him, just pointing out the irony that he thinks Couturier's contract is what is going to cause another lockout.

Has anyone else been having issues lately viewing the site on a mobile device? I can't go 30 seconds without a stupid pop-up and having to close and re-open. BTW I'm on Android using Chrome.

Well, the owners do need to have an event once a decade to remind themselves to go easy on the checkbook.
