    I have you to help me do it.

    great, now someone has to explain to him what all that means. refuting his baseless argument has proven to be a LOT of work.
  3. abuck1220
    but they have the same batting average.
  4. abuck1220
    since he's the one making stuff up, i say he should have to prove himself right. why should i have to prove him wrong? unicorns exist. prove me wrong.
  5. abuck1220
    when he gives up a lot of runs, he gives up a lot of runs. there's your stat. are you drunk or something?
  6. abuck1220
    surprisingly, when roger clemens gives up seven runs in four innings, he has an era of 2.87.
  7. abuck1220
    You're wrong. It means he's a piss poor ninny who should be dealt immediately. What kind of pansy has a higher ERA with guys on base? I'll tell you what kind, a documented steroid abuser. Funny how you revert to this type of a point when you can't prove me wrong. how about, for once, you prove yourself right.

    No one has LD% by split. that's why you have to WATCH THE GAMES.
  9. abuck1220
    great stuff, really. you think the reason his era with men on base is higher than his era with the bases empty is because...there's men on base?? that's like saying he gives up more grand slams when the bases are loaded than he does when the bases are empty or he gives up more stolen bases when there's guys on base. average against with men on base: .228 average against with the bases empty: .239

    go ahead. what do you do for a living?
  11. abuck1220
    i can take it. especially since i'm right and he's wrong.
  12. abuck1220
    i'm glad i've decided to adopt your analysis of prior because these "stats" would have just led me astray. baa with runners on in 2004: .213 (.275 with bases empty) baa with runners on in 2005: .207 (.241 with bases empty). thankfully i've been set straight.
  13. abuck1220
    hey, you know what...you convinced me. in an effort to be more open-minded i'm just going to blindly accept your psycho-analysis of a player you've never met based on watching him pitch on tv a few times. WAY BETTER THAN STATS.
  14. abuck1220
    unicorns are more likely to start smoking than leprechauns. and no, i can't support that with numbers, so it's automatically true.
  15. abuck1220
    that's just a ridiculous statement. Sorry we can't put a number on it so you could understand it. Can't you apply that theory to Hill also? and it would be equally ridiculous. trying to get in the head of these guys by saying they can't handle the pressure, are mentally weak, etc is just comical.
  16. abuck1220
    that's just a ridiculous statement. Sorry we can't put a number on it so you could understand it. well, sure, when you just pull stuff out of your ass, it's hard to put a number on it.

    i just think it's essentially a given that murton will outproduce pie. i'm not as down as pie as, say, meph, but it wouldn't break my heart if he were traded.
  18. abuck1220
    Everybody? No. But a majority, that I believe. At least enough that I really don't care. i guess i just don't feel the same way.
  19. abuck1220
    i really don't buy the "everybody was doing them argument." i just find that remarkably hard to believe.
  20. abuck1220
    that's just a ridiculous statement.
  21. abuck1220
    this isn't 1964 or whenever it is you started watching baseball. even if the cubs paid prior $25 mil, they got their money's worth.
  22. abuck1220
    You are mistaken. EVERYTHING included, Prior made 15.725 million as a Cub from 2002-2007. and his 2003 alone was worth that.
  23. abuck1220
    the only way i can defend this move is if prior was not going to be able to pitch until july/august and he told the cubs he would absolutely not want to return to chicago after this season.
  24. abuck1220
    i have also been surprised by the lack of national coverage. especially considering there isn't too much going on right now. obviously if the bidding was between the red sox and yankees as opposed to the cubs and padres, it'd be different.
  25. abuck1220
    i feel like jason marquis owes the cubs after pitching well below his value last year. if he were a man, he rip up his existing contract and play for $300 this year.
