    Sounds good to me! According to my BP book "Baseball Between the Numbers" bunting for one run is actually more valuable when you have a lead, so, not really a bad decision there. The idea that he's going to be aggressive on the basepaths worries me though. Stealing in general isn't really a positive play to make. If I remember correctly, in that book they had a list of how efficient a manager is, and Lou was close to the top of the list. I think that was in "The Book on The Book." And yeah, he was pretty successful on his stuff except for sac bunts.

    What station is the Purdue game on?

    big 10 is good :wink: Don't get too comfortable. Illinois is playing horrible, but lucky. VT just missed the three that would have put them just five out, and Washington got called for a technical that was baloney. Randall just airballed a free throw and bricked the second off the back of the rim.

    Wow, Illinois wont stop fouling.
  5. Rob
    Probably because whoever had Shaq on their team might do the same thing.

    Would you want to shoot a free throw if there were a chance you were about to do something mid-shot that would really throw off your center of gravity?

    Injury?

    It's not a pretty game, but it's one we're currently winning.

    You know, I thought "what the hell are all those seagulls doing in Mesa" until I realized that was Ronnie Woo Woo in the background... :oops:

    Fox gets on via a very weak beanball off the right elbow, and Pie floats one into left for a single. Theriot lines out to right. Fox advances to third. One out.

    Erstad has really been a gamer today.

    Hawk, DJ & Sox marketing man Brooks Boyer Really? They aren't pissing me off as much as I remember them being. Maybe they're waiting for the regular season. Hawk has been pretty quiet for about 2 innings.

    I think Lou is seeing if he can trust him to get a big out in a tough situation. I'm thinking this inning might have a huge impact on whether or not he makes the roster out of spring training.

    While I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen, I would be very upset if that goes on past the first week of May.

    His stuff was very good as was his location. He was jumping ahead of most every batter. But he could never get a swing-and-miss. And most of what they hit was finding holes. He only gave up one XBH, the Iguchi triple, and Floyd should have either caught that or stayed in front of it. It wasn't really Gooz's fault. To top it off, he only walked one. All in all, I was very impressed. I'd rather have him in the rotation right now than anybody buy Z and Hill.
  17. Rob
    Not a one.

    When did the Astros become a very good hitting baseball team? Last I checked, they had more zeros in the lineup than real hitters.

    Give the White Sox some credit. Guzman was making good pitches, they were just hitting them.
  20. Rob
    Guzman has looked damn good today. His fastball has good velocity, and his offspeed stuff is pretty sick. He's also been getting a lot of grounders. Our defense has just been bad.
  21. Rob
    Agreed. Theriot's instincts at third are still pretty uninspiring. If it were up to me, I'd give the 25th man to Scott Moore.
  22. Rob
    Did he assassinate Jeter to take the crown? He didn't have to. He just hit a popup in third base foul territory and Jeter killed himself jumping into the stands afterwards for the press.
  23. Rob
    Ronny's hitting style doesn't seem much different from what it was last year. I was kinda hoping by now we'd have seen 2-3 articles about how much time he's spending with Perry.

    Single into RF by Cedeno plates Jacque.

    Nice changeup.
