  1. These night games are starting to piss me off. I want my Cubbies to play in the afternoon.
  2. I'm as numbers oriented as anyone. Heck I'm a scientist. That's why qoutes like the below drive me up the freaking wall. No scientist worth his salt would make such a statement. There is measurement error in any model. And variation is not the same as luck. One does not call everything that cannot be explained by a model luck. I'm glad that the author took the time to invistigate when and why the model can breakdown. The point is to see how well a model fits reality, not the other way around. Aren't we arguing semantics here? Some people would call variation "luck" others would not.
  3. I dunno man, sometimes its PAINFUL to watch Derrek Lee just calmly see a batting practice pitch glide over the plate.
  4. I love when he specifically pitches himself into trouble (walking 7-8-9 hitters) and then makes some good pitches to get himself out of it and someone bloops it out of the infield to score some runs. Screw you, Carlos. You deserve it.
  5. The way offenses are going nowadays (although home runs are down, and I haven't checked for sure, but I think runs in general are down) we almost certainly are gonna see oddball 30 run (or possibly more) games again.
  6. Joe Morgan is the best all-around second basemen of all time. (Fielding, batting, and from the stats and anecdotal evidence, a good baserunner)
  7. Does anyone know of any good outfield bats coming into free agency this year?
  8. If Adam Dunn actually said the quote in your signature, he's my favorite player ever. Check that, he already is.
  9. I'd much prefer many unimportant hits to few big ones.
  10. Is that a record yet?
  11. His injury woes are at the bottom of the list of reasons against getting him.
  12. they're substantially better than the cubs. yet they cant beat the brewers joke you're right...the brewers should just lose every game from here on out so the cubs can play .450 baseball the rest of the way and coast into the playoffs. I'd be comfortable with that. Actually in the adjusted standings, the Cubs are way better than the D'Backs.
  13. Come on Cubbies, get out of this inning and put some runs on the board.
  14. yeah, like ANY hall of fame voter knows WTF OPS+ is :?
  15. Good lord why is Lou Brock in the hall of fame? Is his shiny 109 OPS+ really that impressive?
  16. Go D-backs!
  17. It wont get called without us hitting in the bottom of the inning but...that wont matter much.
  18. Double play not a worry now. Get ir done Griffey.
  19. the only god the cubs had has long since died.
  20. what happened.
