  1. I'm fairly confident that Aramis will get to 30 homers this year. Call it a feeling.
  2. To refute this, I'm saying that a player's performance does not shift whether or not there is a base runner on or not. The fact that his numbers are different with runners on is all just a matter of coincidence. A player doesn't suddenly gain better offensive ability (or worse), based on the situation at hand, i just cannot believe that theory. Well, you're wrong. Pitchers pitch differently with RISP, and are likely to leave more balls over the plate. Therefore, there is a difference when hitting with runners on. Good hitters, like Ramirez, will make pitchers pay for challenging them. I'm not sure if you're trying to fuel the "RBI's matter" argument, but if you are, I think you're doing it incorrectly. As you said, Rammy hits well in those situations because he's a good hitter, not because he's a clutch hitter. Rammy's gonna get his hits one way or another, and a lot of the time they'll come with runners on.
  3. Plus, it is a non-save situation, bring in Wuertz, Piggy, or Gallagher for this inning. I really do not understand this move. Piggy hasn't pitched in ages. This is a perfect time for him.
  4. Why in the blue hell is Dempster going to pitch the 9th?
  5. lol definitely not a strike right there.
  6. who's from cedar rapids?? i'm from cf.. The guy who sang the stretch.
  7. That should just about ice this game. GO BRAVES!
  8. I can't be the only one here that still doesn't trust Scott Eyre at all.
  9. I don't think anyone can doubt that Lee is one of the smartest players in the game.
  10. Uh, that's definitely not normal to see from D-Lee. Or Aramis for swinging up on that 2-0 pitch, too.
  11. How about another bomb, A-Ram?
  12. I'd rather keep Wood from pitching two straight days whenever possible.
  13. Marmol looks really not good at the moment. I really wish Hill would've been left in.
  14. I'd have let him go one more, but that's just me. I would have to, but I can understand Lou's thinking here. You're gonna have to explain it to me.
  15. I know I was lambasting Hill earlier, but there's no reason for him to be pulled from this game right now.
  16. The best guy to look at, I believe, is David Ortiz. People point to him as a Mr. Clutch type guy, but his "clutch stats" are down across the board this year despite the fact he's having one of his best offensive seasons.
  17. Nice play by DeRo. Out of that jam.
  18. How can you walk a guy like him? Just throw it down the middle and see what happens.
  19. Geovany swung at ball two. :(
  20. I'm eagerly anticipating some justified Soto lovin'.
  21. Damn you Freddy Sanchez. I thought that was easily ticketed for center field.
