    Yeah, agents know this is a business. They may not pubicly ever admit it when a client sucks but I doubt they would hold a grudge against an organization that released a crappy player.

    Cute response, but you're the one that brought him up.

    Equivalent Average is an all-in-one offensive stat that makes adjustments for ballparks and a few other things. Giles weighs in at .287 compared to Jones' .277. That's pretty close still, but Giles is likely to improve while Jones is unlikely to sustain his numbers. FYI, Giles' numbers were .328 last year and .319 career while Jones' were .258 and .259 respectively.

    Well, Pettitte's been trying something new lately; he's been tossing with his left hand. Dusty certainly doesn't do it well, but lefty-righty matchups are one of his favorite things outside of the double switch. I think that probably explains Murton, Jones, and Nevin.
  5. Geech
    He can't hit lefties worth crap.

    I agree. I don't think it makes any sense to dump Prior while taking risks on pitchers like Guzman and Miller. I doubt either will be as good as Prior.
  7. Geech
    no, he's much cheaper too Younger, also.
  8. Geech
    Oakland is a much better team than the Cobs, though.
  9. Geech
    If you expected that to be representative of his production this season, you overrated him. Murton's 05 numbers were inflated by BABIP and platoon splits.
  10. Geech
    Prior has yet to lose a game this season!

    Umm... No. First of all, the charge against Arthur Andersen was Obstruction of Justice relating to shredded documents. And they were cleared of that charge by the US Supreme court, but not until a company of formerly 28,000 employees was reduced to 200 who focus on various lawsuits related to the government's unlawful destruction of their firm.
  12. Geech
    It might.

    So stupid. I cannot believe how stupid Dusty is.
  14. Geech
    Because Dusty Baker is a stupid, stupid man.
  15. Geech
    If we egg him on, he might take care of our Juan Pierre problem for us.

    I don't believe that for a second. No reputable accountant would do that. Even a disreputable accountant would not do something so obviously fraudulent.
  17. Geech
    Hmmmmm..... a 7 batter lineup. Very interesting !! Man, Dusty must really hate Matt Murton.
  18. Geech
    They're pitching around Carlos to get to Pierre.
  19. Geech
    Which is patently false even if you believe Mulder's clutchness makes up for being worse than Haren.
  20. Geech
    Last year the park effects were about equal. I don't know how they'll end up for 06.
  21. Geech
    Mulder just knows how to win.
  22. Geech
    That's as myopic as using wins and losses. If a pitcher has a 1.75 WHIP, then he's not getting by on skill, he's getting by on luck. If he keeps pitching like that eventually he won't be as lucky. There's a reason most of the serious stat-heads rely on defense independent pitching stats over ERA.
  23. Geech
    Why is Murton losing playing time to Bynum now?
  24. Geech
    Do you believe that he will hit like this for the rest of the season?
  25. Geech
    Maybe. And maybe he doesn't get a hit for the rest of the year. His history tells us that neither of those are likely alternatives, though.
