btw you're not being the bigger man. that's just a cop out for you getting destroyed. i know it, you know it and everyone that reads it knows it.

 

 

Yeah Im getting destroyed... You're acting like a 8 year old.. and I say something and you say NA UH!! "I got numbers, im right". And Im just saying Ok its your opinion but I disagree with it.. Along with 29 other baseball franchises that would take him in a heart beat.

 

Yeah well someone keeps signing jose macias so im pretty sure the fact that major league teams do it, it does not make them smart. im pretty sure you have no idea how to respond to my post refuting yours. So you went "OH I AM DROPPING IT SO I DONT LOOK BAD"

Fukudome won't match Guerrero's numbers.

 

Francouer's production doesn't match his ability cause he doesn't put himself in a position to win most of the battles, hard to beat pitchers when you're expanding your strike zone and falling behind.

 

What's a WEE NUG man?

 

LOL.. look it up...

4. Again.. I don't take anything you say seriously so arguing won't do anything.. So im going to be a bigger man and just be quite... But your a Cub fan so you know everything... Im sorry,

 

You're going to be quite what?

 

Anyone talking to you?

 

Considering it's a public forum, I figured I was free to jump in at anytime. Plus, when someone makes the "watch the game" argument which is a clear sign said poster is a complete imbecile, then I can't help but join the fracas.

Wee Nug means "small penis" according to Urban Dictionary. Apparently we actually are dealing with a child, here.

What happened to being quiet?

 

He was only being quite...like quite wrong.

vladdy doesnt have much bbs to fall back on and PECOTA thinks his power is a ticking bomb (dunno why). not slugging 500 this year. dunno why.

Fukudome won't match Guerroro's past numbers, but PECOTA projects a drop in Vlad's performance next year. If the system is right, Fukudome might actually match them or at least come close.

Sometimes it looks like Vladdy got Dawson's knees implanted in him in his sleep.

Ok listen.. I don't want to sound like a smart-A$$ or anything..I could sit here and argue with him all I want... But its pointless.. Im not trying to drop it so I look bad or anything.. You can throw numbers at me all you want.. its not going to change the face that, what he said is stupid and wrong. I don't want to make a bad impression.. and alot of ppl would agree with me that he is a good right fielder. So Im sorry if I upset anyone.

What do you have that supports your arguments? That you have MLB EI and watch more games? That you played in college/high school?

 

Sometimes the numbers...are the facts.

And the fact that people agree with you means nothing. At one point in time it was a great idea to look at HR and RBI's as the sole offensive statistic and a lot of people thought it was the gospel truth. Thats been proven wrong.

Again... I don't want to fight with everyone...But I don't just look at triple crown numbers trust me.. .But honeslty.. sit down and think.. He is only 24... If I wanted to I could come on here and say Felix Pie is the worst CF in baseball...But no one could convince me that he is the 2nd worst RF in baseball.

Jessie, take it easy man. Not worth getting riled up over, Also, since you're new, I take it you don't know Meph well. He's always right.

 

 

JessE... and Is he always right? Or does he argue with you, until you get so sick of even trying to argue that you just give up.

I don't think Fukudome will come close to a .303 EqA, he'll be closer to .280-.285, if I was to bet.

 

Guerrero is going to decline, his defense already has and the bat speed is next. But, he's still going to be 32 in a few days and there's plenty left. I think he'll be around .300 as far as EqA.

You must think that Winston Churchill does not exist. A recent poll in England found that 20% of British Teens think that Churchill did not exist. A lot of people would agree with you on that one...but then again a lot of people can and are wrong all the time. I'm wrong, you're wrong we're all wrong at some point and time. It's perfectly fine for you to admit you are wrong. In fact my biggest beef about this conversation is the fact that you do not even care. You're saying OOH PROJECTIONS SUCKS AND HE'S GOOD when it is quite clear that you have no idea what EqA and the like are. I would be a lot nicer if you said something along the lines of "what's Eqa? Im not very knowledgeable on the subject and would be interested in learning more about why it shows that Francoeur is a trashy outfielder?"

 

Then I could respond in a nice lengthy discussion of the reasoning behind it. Of course you didn't you just acted like a broken answering machine (an answering machine was popular before cellphones. It was basically a machine that recorder messages from a caller when you werent there, much like the service on your cellphone today).

Nope. He's usually right. Unless he's discussing college football and UF in particular.

 

Ok I will remember that....he is God.. because he posts on a Cub message board alot. Gotcha and also

 

LSU > UF

Fukudome translates to above a .300 EqA, so it's not completely out of the realm of possibility to meet the translations. Hideki Matsui met his. In fact every Japanese hitter that came over has hit their translations as far as EqA is concerned -- except Kazuo Matsui*.

 

*even Matsui technically has

Not that 1st year though, evev Matsui had to have been in the .270s that 1st year. He'll probably need a year to fully adjust to the states and the pitching.
