January 5, 20179 yr http://m.marlins.mlb.com/news/article/212909980/marlins-new-bullpen-made-for-marlins-park/ He just wasted his time writing an article about how the Marlins are factoring ground-ball rate into their bullpen acquisitions, then proceeds to write about a bunch of arms that aren't ground-ball pitchers. My favorite part: "Tazawa, a teammate of Ziegler in Boston, had a 39.9 percent ground-ball rate..." That's worth mentioning because that's a good ground-ball rate? Don't provide a counterargument on his Twitter page either or he'll have you blocked.
January 5, 20179 yr I enjoyed this exchange between @Das Texan and Frisaro. Scoop shut him DOWN I actually interpreted that completely different, if you look at the entire exchange!
January 5, 20179 yr I actually interpreted that completely different, if you look at the entire exchange! No. He totally was being passive aggressive with you
January 5, 20179 yr No. He totally was being passive aggressive with you I thought he was being a shady queen in that response. And Joe is an idiot if he thinks a healthy Stanton will make this a top 1/2 offense. (since that wasnt really the main problem in 2016)
January 5, 20179 yr He really is terrible. Its a shame we are seemingly stuck with him with no end in sight. There are so many talented aspiring reporters who would love to work an MLB beat

January 5, 20179 yr Disagreed with this idiot once on twitter about how Don Kelly doesn't have a better approach than Xavier Scruggs. He blocked me and the three other people who quoted him agreeing with me and condemning him for telling a fan he's an asshole for saying I have "no clue" wha approach means. Saw him around ST press box last year before that even happened. Tried to say hi and he blatantly ignored me. He is a prick.

January 5, 20179 yr The Marlins won't win a World Series until Loria, Samson, Mike Hill, Preston Wilson, Eduardo Perez, and Joe Frisaro are completely out of the picture.
January 5, 20179 yr Author I also don't get his fascination for trying to make the Marlins look like they care about analytics. It's pretty clear based on Mike Hill's quotes that he doesn't really have an analytical plan.

January 5, 20179 yr That was a PR move just like pretending to go after Aroldis Chapman was. Pretty much.
January 5, 20179 yr That was a PR move just like pretending to go after Aroldis Chapman was. They offered Chapman the most money and he elected to go to New York due to the fish firesales in the past basically, that was a risky PR move.
January 5, 20179 yr They offered Chapman the most money and he elected to go to New York due to the fish firesales in the past basically, that was a risky PR move. Which is what I said would happen what? 4 years ago. *pats self on back*
January 5, 20179 yr Yeah but how could they know he'd reject them? Offering the most money doesn't equate to pretending in my book
January 5, 20179 yr Yeah but how could they know he'd reject them? Offering the most money doesn't equate to pretending in my book It wasnt that much more money. It obviously wasnt enough of a premium to pay for having to deal with this front office.
January 5, 20179 yr Come on lol "it wasn't that much more money" If you offer the most money, it isn't a pretend chase
January 5, 20179 yr Come on lol "it wasn't that much more money" If you offer the most money, it isn't a pretend chase Not when you know a player wont take it.
January 5, 20179 yr Come on lol "it wasn't that much more money" If you offer the most money, it isn't a pretend chase It wasn't that much more money from an organization that is a total dumpster fire. Who goes from the Cubs to the Marlins? They are polar opposites in terms of class, competency, and competitiveness.
