true story.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez grounded an IF hit to third base, Nevin to second

[bsucubsfan]

pull Zambrano and rest him and let guzman go for 3 innings while ahead and see if he can gain some confidence

[Shavo]

I jumped on my bed and hit my knee on the wall, putting a hole in it. CRAP

[da bears]

Sounds like there's a TON of Cub fans there tonight. Easily heard on tv chanting lets go cubbies.

Anyone know what Pierre's SB total takes his OPS up to?

 

BP's metric for the addition to OBP that stolen bases should provide would give Pierre a boost from .277 to .290 (prior to today).

[Mizzou]

Anyone know what Pierre's SB total takes his OPS up to?

 

OPS = ( H + BB + HBP ) / ( AB + BB + HBP - SF).

 

Not affected by SB one way or the other, no?

Well, technically no. But I know in the offseason some people talked about how his OBP was essentially lower due to his Caught Stealing totals, so it only makes sense to adjust his SLG for bases that he steals if you're adjusting his OBP for his CS's.

 

How bout that Michael Barrett! Zambrano might get a complete game shutout! :shock:

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-10 when they score first in the game.... 5-26 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Yeah, that's true.... but it's all pretty esoteric, if you ask me.

I can see now why the Angels DFA'd Yan.

same here! :shock:

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton walked, Nevin to third, Ramirez to second

[Shavo]

I blame Estaban Yan for their being a hole in the wall and sucking and making the cubs win resulting in a 10 year baker extension.

[cubs121]

[Shavo]

Jones sucks again whew.

Now do we know why we don't swing at the first pitch after a walk?

[da bears]

Come on Z, quick inning here.

BP's metric for the addition to OBP that stolen bases should provide would give Pierre a boost from .277 to .290 (prior to today).

Wait, I'm confused. How would stealing a base, when a player is already on base (obviously), boost his OBP?

maybe he meant reaching on Error raising OBP, which I think it should.

It would be a boost to SLG.
