    D: Because 2-3 months of good results outweigh 3 appearances. The "good" results were somewhat overrated, and no, they don't necessarily do so in this case. I know people love to spam "sample size," but there's also the matter of extremity. Extremely bad results are less likely to be sample-size flukes than ordinarily bad ones (and the same goes for good). Same argument as we had last year when Brett Jackson had a million Ks in 50 PAs or whatever. 13 batters faced: 2 BB 2 HBP 2 HR 2 K 5 BIP That's bad enough to be legitimately concerned over, sample size or no. Legitimately concerned, sure. Cut and run at first sign of difficulty, no. Velocity seems normal, location seems off, front office likely thinks he should get time to try to get control straightened out.

    Please stop with the "Theo doesn't care" meme. It's really annoying. I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Because if what's happened so far in 167 games is the job he does when he does care, it does not reflect well on him. Only if you look at it through crazy goggles, perhaps.

    If only everyone was as level headed as you are. :roll: Baby steps, if only everyone was as level headed as my 5-year-old.

    Man, the next thing you'll be telling me is the Cubs won't hit .125 as a team all year.

    Blackhawks clinch a playoff berth if Phoenix doesn't win in regulation or OT.

    After giving up 1 run in 3 games, Washington has given up 14 runs in 6 innings tonight.

    Santa Clara's Kevin Foster is 21 3PA shy of the NCAA career record, and tonight will be his last game.

    I don't think you can bench yourself due to an injury.

    Minnesota hired Rick Pitino. No, the other one.

    You can put up to 3 players in your DL. After that, you need to either use up bench spots for additional injured players, or you'll have to cull the injured that aren't worth keeping.

    Yep, UConn and Cincy unknowingly joined Conference USA.

    I assume all Daytona games are rainouts unless explicitly told otherwise.

    Yes, friends, it's still National Jump to Conclusions week all week here in the game threads.

    Ohhhh, Edwin Jackson.

    Correct, and no daily switches for RPs.

    National Jump To Conclusions week also counts for things you might have expected. Like Marmol, after he spent the last 3 months of last year quite effective.

    Bro, manzier, or statue? Statuesque, even.

    Soriano did not stink last year, so if he stinks now, it's not "still." When you look at his contract he did. He's a tremendous bust. Soriano did force Hendry at gunpoint to sign him to the deal, so I guess you have a point. Soriano was worth $16.4M last year, barely underperforming his salary. He does have a tremendous bust, though.

    And yet Pirate pitchers threw 140 pitches. Can't force balls to be out of the zone.
  24. bukie
    That is one way to not let McCutchen beat you.

    Valbuena says [expletive] you and your deep counts.
