Can’t let Fulmer pitch to failure here
-
Yeah, baby
-
I was thinking about the recent struggles of the O vs D. It actually might be indicative of a pretty good secondary for the Bears forcing the the skill players on offense to step up their game. At least that’s my optimistic take.
-
This was a let down game if there ever is such a thing. They played a division rival four games, late. If I could have bet money, I would have put a lot on the Braves.
-
shiiiiiity game.
-
He hasn't been able to adjust to the MLB strike zone and now he's lost.
-
Gomes is a DP machine today.
-
Stay hot Belli

A good smack in the mouth might be good for the boys.
-
Zach now using the Boog tag line "that's that" at the end of the inning.
-
Nobody is in the same league with the Braves this year.
-
No, no-no
-
Realignment does not make geographical sense at all. They probably just need to blow up the NCAA for football and figure out something better.
-
Yikes, I had a business meeting and just checked back in. I need the Old Man Simpson meme.
-
This may be a sub two hour game.
-
They are a very good team all the way around. And will be for a while with the extensions.
-
old timey Braves zone it sounds like. So far, Pat and Ron have not said anything.
-
You would be correct. I can't watch on MLB.TV because they push it my TV provider but I don't have the package for RSNs
-
getting fired up. I'm blacked out so it will be Pat and Ron for me this weekend. It's usually that way anyway.
-
Is it the NIL stuff or the conference realignment stuff? Or is that you think ND might be forced into a conference? or All of it or none of it. I'd really like to read what you think.

A good example of what I'm talking about was Votto's first HR the other night. He got fooled on the pitch and hit a HR with a 93 MPH EV. One could say he got lucky. The pitcher threw a ball over the plate belt high. Votto has elite bat-to-ball skills and hand-eye coordination. He was able to keep his hands back long enough and get full extension to hit the ball hard enough in the air. The luck part of all that is that the wind was blowing out. How much it helped the HR I don't know. But if he didn't have the skill to do the rest of what he did, he wouldn't have hit a HR.

It's called a 162-game baseball schedule. It's no fun to say whoever has the best record at the end of the season is the best team and just end things there though.
-
I could totally see a "Trade Deadline Day" Monday where they have no games and make an extravaganza out of it like they do the draft.

Variance is definitely part of the equation, but its substantialness is overestimated. I think most would agree that process is more important than product when looking at individual events. It's the frequency of the event that is most important. Putting the bat on the ball is an important skill. Throwing strikes in the zone that are more likely to induce weak contact or no contact is an important skill. Having great hand-eye coordination is an important skill. When all those things come together more times than not, variance is going to be in favor of whoever can do those things best.

He doesn't need your help to defend himself. Logically: The Cubs record should be better than it is based on model x Reason for why their record isn't what the model shows: Their record is not better because they've been unlucky What is the logical conclusion of that statement if their record improves? Their luck has changed.
