  1. recall, he had 6 BB in his first 72 games (312 PA) do not miss Rudy
  2. 6 BB in 5-1/3, this is Theo's offense, wearing out pitchers without remorse
  3. Brewers kind of bailed out Castro on that triple would have liked to see Jackson against Marcum, he's been really strong against changeups edit: nevermind the jesus is in left so i am content
  4. he's hit a lot of IF flies, which always obviously suppresses babip; fwiw, his xBABIP is .284 for the year his .286/.420/.464 (.333 babip) line for August is quite a sight to behold, namely that 13-to-10 BB:K rate i'm also a big, big fan of his defense at 3rd
  5. they're likely to pick up rivals #1 RB Derrick Green too
  6. 1.2 fWAR, in 140 PA...that's a 5.6 WAR full-season pace
  7. Wood probably gives up another, i dunno, 5 runs today with Vitters at 3rd i lost track of how many good plays Valbuena made tonight
  8. http://i48.tinypic.com/9ql17s.jpg
  9. updated: #31 Irvin (UM) #44 Walton (UM) #48 Robinson (IU) #56 Stephens (PU) #60 Loving (OSU) #64 Hill (IL) #70 Koenig (WI) #77 Scott (PU) #104 Donnal (UM) #113 Fischer (IU) #116 Sina (NU) #118 Davis (IU) #137 Thorpe (PSU) #148 Morgan (UI) dropped out: James (IL) Hartman (IU)
  10. Rod Allen is as good as it gets for color guys
  11. that's rich, this coming from the guy that cited MothaFucka Jones
  12. "probably"? and small correction, he'd place worst amongst qualifiers...vitters for example actually has a worse contact rate
  13. like when i pointed out his league-worst contact rate (a few hours ago)
  14. Stephen J. Nesbitt ‏@stephenjnesbitt To be clear, Fitzgerald Toussaint being listed as the starting running back right now means absolutely nothing. Don't read into it yet.
  15. Brett Jackson is a wash-out who can't hit. It'll take a lot to change my mind on that one. huh, i thought for sure his .263/.440/.684 week would have blown the weather vane of your tenuous opinions in the complete other direction
  16. Michael Rothstein ‏@mikerothstein Hoke said no decision has been made on Toussaint or Clark.
  17. Apparently smarter than the owner that hired him. The owner fell for a guy that talked about sports (like posters) as opposed to someone who actually had experience in coaching, scouting, managing, and player development. wow, this is actually an argument that you are making.
  18. one more thing: Jackson's plate discipline has been other-worldly to this point amongst qualified hitters, only Albert Callaspo and Carlos Santana have offered at fewer pitches out of the zone (full list) than his 20.6% figure, but that isn't really passivity at all, since he's swung at pitches within the zone at an extremely high rate (71.1%) no other player who has swung at less than 25% of pitches outside the strike zone has also swung at more than 70% of pitches in the zone; basically, he's doing everything right, but making contact when he swings (74.4% zone-contact, which would place worst in baseball)...an obvious caveat is SSS, but he's not being overmatched in terms of pitch recognition right now so, if his mechanics are screwed up and somewhat correctable, he can surely be a MLB-caliber player offensively to me, this is the new front office's first big litmus test in player development and i can't wait to see how it turns out
  19. AMEN to that. The very fact that Zoolander there is agreeing with you logically should tell you something. a model idiot
  20. jackson's zips: .247/.330/.424 (28.9% K) stubbs' zips: .239/.310/.398 (29.4% K) hilariously, right now he's virtually league average offensively (for wOBA) with 43% K's...and a 34% LD rate nothing about him makes any sense; this guy is my favorite player in baseball right now
  21. hey b2b, now tell us how smart Matt Millen is
