  1. IT OCCURRED WHAT????? DON'T LEAVE ME HANGING LIKE THAT!!!
  2. he's probably my pick for NL CY
  3. lol O'Brien scored on his own net for a delayed penalty Tikhonov got a goal and a penalty on the same play
  4. that's a whole lot of OF
  5. ROUND 3 1. Detroit: Eric Wood, OL, Louisville because our Guards are atrocious
  6. a) intuitively realize 900 MLE ops the last 2 seasons (as well as 900 in 73 mlb AB or whatever) shows him as a really good bet to be productive with the bat In 2008, Micah's third year at AAA, his batting line translates to a .286 EQA. While that's actually really close to Lee's PECOTA projection for 2009, I don't think Hoffpauir's odds of repeating his big season are very good. Furthermore, while advanced fielding metrics haven't really been very kind to Lee, I would still take his defense over Micah's. Plus/Minus has Lee's 2008 at +4, while Micah is at -2 in admittedly very few innings. we're talking about different things here. i agree with you that Lee would likely be the more productive player of the two in full time duty, but i think the notion of "only 73 AB he hasn't proven anything" is junk. what he did the last two years at both levels proves he's a safe bet to be good with the bat. which is the most you can say about any player, because even "proven" guys at the mlb level like victor martinez can have unforeseen crappy years.
  7. there are two options a) intuitively realize 900 MLE ops the last 2 seasons (as well as 900 in 73 mlb AB or whatever) shows him as a really good bet to be productive with the bat b) lazily bring up some meaningless dumb-ass career figure that equally incorporates his pitiful 660 OPS seasons from 4+ years ago before he clearly figured things out. hey guys i don't think much of this Geovany Soto, a .784 career OPS in the minors isn't really doing it for me and true to form, which route does dexter go?
  8. he had a MLE 900 ops the last two years in iowa whats your point, anyways? he'll have to do that over a much more significant sample in the majors for you to realize he's a good hitter? that's really your problem, not anyone else's.
  9. damn, down to 99.45% now
  10. you don't? there haven't been any real surprises, imo there were basically 4 coin flip games played already; to get those right is a 1 out of 32 shot. if you picked all chalk you'd have 3 games wrong. so it's not exactly surprising that someone has gotten a couple of games wrong. i'm still perfect, so it's no surprises for me :D
  11. you don't? there haven't been any real surprises, imo Not huge surprises but BYU and Cal had the edge in their games. Butler/LSU was a toss-up. oh, i liked Maryland a lot from what i saw in them upsetting UNC earlier in the year
  12. you don't? there haven't been any real surprises, imo missed with butler and clemson sorry for picking against your wolverines :( i never doubted em for a second
  13. you don't? there haven't been any real surprises, imo
  14. oh, thank goodness.
  15. paging manny harris...
  16. this is looking like a rugby match
  17. it's a favor to michigan, he choked last year in the tourney and was choking tonight. if a three point shooter isn't making anything it's a favor to his team to throw him out. he can still go into a horrid shooting stretch at any moment, i feel better with him out of there
  18. oh, i'll take it
  19. i guess Matt Harvey would be a good pairing for Strasburg, so in that sense it's a win
  20. Gaudin's look is inexplicable, that is until you see the girl he's banging
  21. the Nats aren't exactly in the position to be throwing away pitchers with decent ability, was my point.
  22. wait, why the hell are the Nationals cutting Shawn Hill??
  23. theriot had more BB than utley last year i just don't get pitchers
  24. did i say Andre Smith? i think what i meant was Jason Smith
