Don't wanna rain on your guy's party or anything, but Sticky Web is illegal on Showdown. That's bad right?

LOL, feeling like this thread has just turned into a Delphox bash fest. While I am a big fan of the fox magician, I will say that I think it cannot be a straight up sweeper simply because it is outclassed by many other mons (Though I do think we're overlooking the fact that it gets Psyshock and...

My only problem with YZard is you pretty much need a dedicated Rapid Spinner to run it effectively. Granted, there are so many of those around now that synergize well with it that it should be a problem running one. For me, the fact that your primary sweeper could be already down to 50% health...

Bump please! Can I get someone to rate it?

Introduction: It has been a long time since I have played Pokémon competitively (You can thank college and senior year for that), but with the advent of Gen 5 on the horizon, I decided that it was time to jump back in. So, I jumped on Pokémon Showdown and decided to build a team and get...

Look at the bright side, now you can sign Edwin Jackson! /sarcasm

I believe that the contract all depends on his first three years (Because of third year wall syndrome that all the Japanese pitchers seem to hit). He pitches like an Ace, it's a steal, but if he burns out, he's basically a Japanese John Lackey.

It seems like Vlad would be a definite fit. But judging by what Dombroski said (on a sound bite on Hot Stove), it seems like he'd rather take his chances with the linup he has. I think that they need to get someone like a Pena, but he probably will want more than one year.

Right, no I completely agree. And after what Ian Kennedy did this year, I feel the need to stop trying to predict pitchers and how they will turn out. I think in terms of comparable pitchers, Alexi Ogando is the most recent and more similar I think than any we've mention (RHP, was the...

1. I wouldn't say Pedoria's in another universe defensively, but he is definitely superior. And comparing the two is kinda eh since one's a top-of-the order batter and another is a middle-of-the-order power bat. They both are great regardless. 2.It as unreasonable to think that both Papi...

Changes in bold. I never said the Sox wouldn't win. Neither did Orbpom, he just said you guys better watch it. and you should. I'm not saying you couldn't pull a Bartolo Colon with someone, but I'll be honest, that was pure luck that he was that good. same with Garcia, I don't expect him to...

You know, I thought this was a joke at first when I received the notification last nite while watching Reborn! (And then promptly paused the episode and research the deal). At first, I was mad that we just gave up Montero. But then, I did some digging. and here are the things I love about the...

Didn't know about Penny's contract. But regardless, he's very meh. And Benoit may be having a good year, but he isn't the pitcher he was with Tampa Bay. At least he's not as bad as Grant Balfour... Also, last night's Yankee-Red Sox game was heart breaking for us Yankee fans but a great game...

Surprised not see many drummers/percussionists here. I've played drums on the side for 3 years and enjoy it a lot. Started with a crummy acoustic kit but now have some Rolands and I love them to death. Take lessons once a week, though lessons are a loose term since they're really just jam...
