    about his "cringe-worthy mechanics", fwiw: http://www.drivelinemechanics.com/2009/5/30/893979/hope-your-team-doesnt-draft

    0-5 3k last night in iowa, so he appears to be right back in game shape

    i'm a little slow, so I'm going to try to spell this out. Are you suggesting that looking at road numbers for a guy who played the majority of his road games in huge pitcher's parks like SF, LA, and SD isn't wise if you're not looking to add the game to a team that plays its home games in such a park? Yes, Coors inflates numbers. And the other NLW parks deflate them. Odd to eliminate one outlier and base your analysis entirely on numbers impacted by the other outliers. i'm not going to ignore park factors, but as with the tireless khalil greene debates last year, if you're otherworldly good in half of your at-bats or downright god awful in half of your at-bats that simply can't be ignored or brushed aside fwiw Hollidays hitting .343/.467/.525 over the past month

    an ecksteinesque pitiful 23 HR in 1632 milb PA, and now he's at a 300 isoP for his last 400 professional PA if i were a cynic, i might think...

    man Hanson looks fantastic hitting his spots at 95-96 and throwing filthy CB/SL for strikes
  7. sneakypower
    nobody wanted to join a career OPS fantasy league like i suggested

    lol dexxies at it again with career road numbers i wonder why a player wouldn't hit as well in at&t or petco park as coors. these are things you'd have to worry about if you didn't want a guy to play in a hitters park which is what wrigley is

    great watch the cards pick this guy up and turn him into a 20 game winner

    and something like 4 of them are pickoffs, iirc what this trade says to me is that Huntington is trying to build a team with insane defensive efficiency. i dont like the lack of power they're going to have, but hernandez, mccutchen, tabata would cover insane ground, considering their lousy collection of pitchers throughout the organization might be a decent strategy. but they really should have gotten more in return.

    starlin castro's error totals would make bj upton blush

    chicago locals, be sure to do whatever you possibly can to avoid ambulance rides

    hendry's biggest sin is that there were fantastic bargains to be had in the offseason in positions of need and he blew something like $10m on Miles, Heilman and Gregg alone

    oh my goodness trade Ibanez yesterday
  16. sneakypower
    i'm not sure i can recall a single skillful normal goal all series so far from either team. they've all just been lucky bounces or prayers all these guys wouldn't make again if they had 100 chances.

    i don't think Gamel's played more than like 15 innings of 3B this year
  18. sneakypower
    Howard had a much better ISO in the minors than Reimold, i'm not sure i'd expect more than 30 HR as his upside

    i'd probably say that charging somebody late fees for videos is the worst thing a person could ever do

    what Halladay's doing is almost as impressive: 7.0 K/BB and 2.34 GB/FB, both 2nd in the league Lincecum's also not far behind Greinke in FIP, 1.75 compared to 1.52 Verlander's striking out 12.08 hitters/ 9 innings, over a full batter better than Harden's ridiculous 11.01 k/9 last year. there have been some terrific pitching performances thus far, to be sure

    cats: 5x5 + K, obp, slg and pitcher losses who's the better long-term buy?
  23. sneakypower
    scripted.

    i don't know about untouchable, his career progression has been disappointing. he's good a #3 at this point, not the ace like it looked like he'd become. at any rate, the Giants could get a lot better return from the Brewers than Cantu or Uggla

    WHAT? Now I am about the biggest pro-LeBron, MJ fan boy there is, but this is stupid. In terms of basketball polish and translating talent to effectiveness or as you put it, "individual skill," on the court, Jordan is still ahead of LeBron. The whole point of the LeBron-MJ debate boils down to the fact that LeBron is more physically gifted than Jordan and if he can continue to develop skill, maybe he can compete with Jordan. seriously, in terms of "translating talent to effectiveness", Lebron's not nearly the most "skillful" player in the game; i'd think of a guy like Shane Battier or Brandon Roy, even Kobe before him it's arguing semantics, but that's a pretty bad description
