I would like to discuss Bryce Harper

[Rock Strongo]

I know. Harper is about to cruise into his prime with 8 years under his belt and people slag on him because he's a bit of a jackoff. I'd take him on the Red Sox in a heartbeat.

yup.

 

[Rock Strongo]

Well you are just shifting the goal posts then. You said that Nevin had 3-4 great years. But Harper's 2015 was only "borderline great"

sure, in total. his best years were ages 29/30. i didnt move anything.

.880 28
.916 29
.976 30
.859 33

thats just OPS

his 4 best years. are you using "great" too literally? me thinks so.

"rock, in 2015 you said GREAT!"

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

thats...dirts...opening post.

you...didnt type it, he did.

I didn't say I typed it, I said I posted it. I quoted it.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

If Harper had 2 less HRs but 2 more doubles (so he'd have 40 doubles), and 10 less runs scored but 1 more RBI (so he'd have 100 RBI), is his season somehow better because of those milestones?

Meh.

Rock's either trolling us or he's a buffoon. Either way, I'm moving on.

He doesn't exactly fit the current roster construction, but you could probably make it work. lol

 

[Rock Strongo]

neither.

im wicked smart and am only asking if harper to date had been "great". he has been REALLY good.

i havent seen great yet, outside of one season i call "borderline great".

Send JBJ packing, move Betts to CF and Harper can make himself at home in RF. Devers to 1st, Martinez to DH and fill in outfielder. That leaves a hole at 3rd base.

You didn't move anything? You went from Nevin had 3-4 great years to Nevin had 2 really good seasons.

I'm trying to figure out what you mean by "great".

Phil Nevin: 3-4 great years
2015 Bryce Harper: borderline great

 

[Rock Strongo]

I'm trying to figure out what you mean by "great".

Phil Nevin: 3-4 great years
2015 Bryce Harper: borderline great

like i said

are you using "great" too literally? me thinks so.

"rock, in 2015 you said GREAT!"

you also have to look at positions, era, pitching, etc.

 

[soxfan1468927]

like i said

are you using "great" too literally? me thinks so.

"rock, in 2015 you said GREAT!"

And like I said, I'm trying to figure out what you mean by great.

Phil Nevin: 3-4 great years
2015 Bryce Harper: borderline great

why do you keep harping on me saying "great" like a year ago?

you once said "nice".

 

[Rock Strongo]

And like I said, I'm trying to figure out what you mean by great.

which ive explained, in detail.

 

[soxfan1468927]

Alright I'm done. You're trolling

 

[Rock Strongo]

Alright I'm done. You're trolling

no, im not and neither was dirt, nor the people who have agreed with me.

 

[soxfan1468927]

no, im not and neither was dirt, nor the people who have agreed with me.

Dirt never said that his 2015 was borderline great. Who agreed with you on that?

 

[broncosmitty]

Rock has finally caught retarded.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Alright I'm done. You're trolling

...or a buffoon.

 

[BottleWalk]

Every "richest player" in sports isn't worth what they're paid and that's that. When one of the big-boy teams of baseball gives Harper a contract he may be that richest player, and he won't be worth what he's paid given the proportions it will create with the other elite talents in the league. But one of those teams will think he's worth it and while he won't be, he will be good enough to get them a championship if they have enough money for the rest of the things they need.

In the nhl the hawks are paying Toews as much as any other player in the league and no one thinks Toews is as good at hockey as Bryce is at baseball...this isn't some shocker.

 

[Rock Strongo]

Dirt never said that his 2015 was borderline great. Who agreed with you on that?

wait, youre STILL dry humping an adjective?

Alright you win Rock, we can move on
