they've undeniably improved after a sort of disastrous April (the pitching staff leads MLB in May fWAR) April: offense - .291 wOBA, 0.85 WAR/650 PA pitching - 1.70 WAR / 200 IP May: offense - .308 wOBA, 1.60 WAR/650 PA pitching - 4.40 WAR / 200 IP starters have given up just 3 HR in all of May (avg is 12)

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 5-20-14
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
i wonder if it's about time to move up Jose Arias 14-1/3 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 4 BB, 21 K (0 HR) for the past month, but he's still sitting in A ball as a 23yo -
Victor Martinez: 11 HR, 9 Ks also, Mike Trout leads the AL in strikeouts
-
jason parks is full of want!
-
that idiot has no courage of his convictions...railing against stat scouting, and doing precisely just that, repeatedly "meh, he's a reliever" ... "WOULDN'T TRADE, UNTOUCHABLE"
-
omitting just the first 4 games of the season: http://i.imgur.com/JxGgzwx.png that's a lot of doubles
-
at least he's in the right organization if he can only perform well in the daytime
-
for the past month, the Cubs bullpen is 2nd in the NL for fWAR Rondon, Ramirez, Schlitter & Wright all have 10+ appearances with FIPs of 2.28 or better (of the four, only Schlitter is in the twos) it's fair to say it's come together and is serving as a clear strength of the team right now

and Matt Adams (and a higher BB%!) also has higher wOBA than Chris Davis, Longoria, Myers, Zobrist, Bruce, Cano
-
worry not, Lake just hit one
-
yes, without question
-
Over the course of 6 months it is more predictive. Over the course of 1.5 months with 2 huge outlier games it is meaningless. worth noting that both pitchers we bombed (Cingrani, Lyons) were likely pitching injured (both were placed on DL immediately following their starts)
-
we seem to have cooled on him quite a bit and started focusing more on other options, so i'd imagine the staff is reading between the lines there he's really good, but i would have loved most the novelty of a lefty-shooting PG...don't seem to see many of those

hey, look who's #1! http://www.baseball-reference.com/play-index/share.cgi?id=Bn1iT
-
honestly, he might be the best pitcher in baseball right now
-
was "the deadliest catch" or whatever that show was about Chad Ochocinco's dating life even a distraction at all for the Bengals?
