    What is the future for Dopirak and Harvey? Dopirak still can't get on base or hit for much average but has 13 HRs. Does he have any tradevalue whatsoever? And Harvey can't hit or stay healthy, but he can pitch, or at least could at one time. I had sky high hopes for these two, but they both look like they'll never see the big leagues.

    I've got an idea, how about they play him more often. 2-3 with 2 doubles, RBI, walk, and GW run scored.
  3. CubinNY
    Yea, it was the Wood game. He hit a HR in the sixth (I believe) and then didn't come out for the 7th. He ran the bases fine. Weird

    What happend to Colvin?
  5. CubinNY
    If all these guys are billionaires I don't understand the need for partners. Is it becuase he trying to eliminate potential rivals? Anyway, as long as the get people who can make good baseball decisions (i.e., not hire steve stone in any baseball related/non commentary position) and spend money the way the Trib has since 2000 I'll be happy. I can't say I like anything about the Cannig Group though just from reading the blurb.

    He's been saying that all year long after a short outing. Yes, IMO this team is ONE of the worst since the late 90s. ONE of not THE.
  7. CubinNY
    The Cubs had 14 LOB. I love it!
  8. CubinNY
    Alright! Maybe this is the Cubs year. They have probably one of the worst teams they've had since the 90s and they may just make the playoffs.

    Come on Floyd!

    Charlie Mannual is not a good manager.
  11. CubinNY
    Murton 2-3 with a walk, not bad.
  12. CubinNY
    Maybe the results of this game will push Hendry and Lou to call up Soto.

    Jimmy Rollins must really hate the Cubs to be attempting a steal of 3rd.
  14. CubinNY
    I wonder what is going on. Last night he hit a HR then was taken out by Listash. At the end of the game I didn't see him come out of the dugout. He didn't look hurt running around the bases.

    According to gameday the first strike was about 10 inches inside. Is the ump that bad?
  16. CubinNY
    Is that solely based on the story about his Jewish ex-girlfriend, or is there more to it? There have been rumblings that he fought in the crusades. I think it was the children's crusade. No, I read that he was postheletizing in the clubhouse or something. I'll see if I can dig it up http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/editorials/2005-11-06-faith-edit_x.htm

    What happens to Hill a lot these days. A combination of bloop hits, bad defense and Rich completely falling apart as a result. Yeah...who would have thought a couple months ago that Hill would be our biggest worry in terms of being a head-case? What makes you think Hill is a "head case".
  18. CubinNY
    I really am rooting for him. I for one am rooting completely against him. I know, I know. Pretty obvious comment. Anyway, we all have our favorites players that we'd like to see succeed. He's one of mine.

    Meph/LordWhatever I don't want to derail the game thread. This will be my last post on the subject Hypothesis A a pitcher like Hill gets poor defense (pitcher A) How do you measure defense? No real good way to do it but you can use errors/game for pitcher A and compare them to the team's errors/game for other pitchers. Hypothesis B a pitcher like Hill gets less run support compared to others on the team That one is fairly easy to measure, no? Look you are a smart guy. We all know it. You don't need to try to get into a pissing contest with everyone all the time. Especially when you either haven't read what the person wrote or haven't understood the converstation. I tried to send you a PM but I can't because you have me on ignore. I'd suggest that you either keep me there and don't respond to me or take me off ignore.

    So he/she is all over the place. first, it was runs scored. Then it was don't like. Then it was errors. So again, thanks for the irrelevent commentary.

    Joe Morgan everybody. I'll tell you what. Pick any four pitchers who pitched in the majors for 5 or more years. I look up the game logs for the runs/game and errors/game and compare them to the data for the days when the pitcher didn't pitch. I'll run some simple descriptive and inferential statistics and see if there is a corelation between runs/scored and errors/game. If I find that there are no data that support your conclusion you ban yourself from every posting on here. If there is a corelation I will seek your forgivness and never darken the door of NSBB again. Deal? Fortunately for him, even if there is correlation he's not wrong. What you would be doing wouldn't even be relevant. It wouldn't prove anything .... just that when there are more errors there are more runs scored. He didn't say anything against that. No. He said that a pitcher who pitches slow and throws a lot of ball (i.e., nibbler) a) has fewer runs scored per game for him and b) has more errors (on his team) when he pitches compared to other pitchers on his team. But thanks for irrelevent commentary.

    Yea, it was pretty bad last year when we went. Last night I was expecting to not be able to get seats anywhere near the dugout. But there we were right above the dugout steps. I bet there were less than 1000 people at the game. I was kind of disapointed that Wood didn't stay for the end of the game or sign autographs. Then again, I don't know how appealing it is to sign for a 12 to 15 old men and 6 kids.
  25. CubinNY
    Prove it. Haha, nothing in that statement needs to be proved. Defenders flat out despise slow pitchers and tend to not make as many great plays behind them. Don't bother with him/her goony. Reason and data will not pursuade people like him/her.
