Does this statement presuppose that I have to leave the basement to post?

I thought the entire point of the internet was that you didn't have to move at all.

Yes it does. Your wifi is weak down there.
And your phone privileges end at 3 pm on Thursdays.

I like the edit to get that extra jab in.

That's some great material, Bania.
I take back my 'weak' comment. It's clearly not that.

Nightengale reporting that Shields will likely get "perhaps a bit more than the 55M Ervin Santana got last year."
I smell the San Diego discount......

41 yrs old and mocking a username on a fantasy forum... Perhaps it's time to reconsider your life goals.

Just a thought..

Question for Da Grillz: How long is this $20M amount only for aces? Forever? 5 years?
Also, did James Shields have sex with your mother and not call her back?

2007 - Zito's SF deal was the highest ever at that point, he got 7/126 or ~ 18 per
So a good 6-8 yrs now we've seen these inflated #'s.
So if/when Shields gets 4/65, we must have transported back to 2006. Ya know since contracts get bigger with time.

Huh?
BARRY ZITO RECIEVED A CONTRACT FOR $18M/YEAR IN 2007. THAT WAS THE BIGGEST CONTRACT FOR A SP TO DATE.
18 MILLION. 18. ONE....EIGHT....MILLION. NOT 17...NOT 19....NOT 20....THAT CAME LATER
HOPING CAPS MAKE THIS EASIER FOR YOU.
Well his #'s were better then Shields at the time of that signing. But yea most people thought that contract was crazy also. The same reaction people would have today if James got 20+/yr. Zito was also 4 yrs young and had a ridiculous W/L ratio.
Having said all that, he at least was a 'big game' pitcher. Career 2.83 postseason ERA. BIG GAME James just a tad higher at 5.46. I know I know, that's meaningless.

"Growing sense" Padres will get James Shields
I got a growing sense I was getting laid last night, but that didn't happen.

Ace or no, Shields would still be the biggest pickup of the Padres' busy offseason. He would solidify the front of their rotation while reducing the need for one of their lottery ticket SPs (e.g. Morrow, Josh Johnson, Kelly) to pan out.
I'm not totally sold on their offense; their infield is pretty weak but adding Shields would at least give their rotation the look of a contender.

I'm really hoping that Gilda is using Prodigy as his internet provider. That would be so fitting

Zeet's ERA was lower than his FIP in every one of those years which was true of his career as a whole. Some guys are just like that.
I'm also not sure the Giants' front office understood FIP in 2007.
What about Zito's first 500 IP, conveniently left those out I guess? But i agree, his years leading up to that deal were far from good and I thought the contract was horrendous at the time, so you're preaching to the choir.
I'm surprised to be in the minority here to be honest. Who on earth would give a 33 yr old SP a $100 million/contract. Apparently a lot of you I guess...
