    I'm not getting any work done today. It's just that simple.

    WooWoo
  3. CardsFanInChiTown
    He hasn't been great but he's also had errors and bad calls.
  4. CardsFanInChiTown
    oh wow, that was wonderful.

    I know, he's just a kid and he runs like my dad.

    I don't even enjoy these games. I get too stressed out.

    Let's do this thing.

    I think we get DLee had a better stats year. It just depends how the baseballl writers define what an MVP is. Honestly, I see both sides of the coin on this one, it's a tough call.
  9. CardsFanInChiTown
    Like, say, Andre Dawson in 1987? That was one of the worst MVP selections ever.

    I think most people believe (and I agree) when the stats are close a team's performance should be taken in account. If DLee hit .400, with 75HR and 200RBI's he would win by a landslide. Stats should be given the most weight, however it's not the only thing. edit: grammar probs

    So if win shares are predicated on pythagorean record, how do we know that the pythagorean projections are correct? I mean no stat is perfect right? There are always some variables at work that any given stat can't take into account. This isn't me just being argumentative, I just wonder sometimes about some of these sabermetrics. and for that matter why didn't Bill James use the pythagorean record? You know, I DID mathematically state and prove this 2 pages ago or so.... I know, I was asking the why not the how. Why didn't he use the Pythagorean expectation rather then real wins. Just wondering.

    AP leads in win shares now: AP: 34 DLee: 33 http://www.hardballtimes.com/winshares/index.php Lots of stats can be used. For this argument I'm going to say win shares is a better stat. :wink:

    If Edmonds hits a home run I'll poop my pants

    I think the cards are fielding a younger team then the cubs right now.

    another jinx Jinxes=Excuses Pujols didn't get on base because I said that Glendon has faced the minimum, he got on base because Glendon walked him. Hah, I know. I was just being silly.
  19. CardsFanInChiTown
