    Good to see Marmol using his fastball a little more.
  2. laurens
    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Oh, you're serious?
  3. laurens
    Nice working out of that inning.
  4. laurens
    This is gonna be a looooong game
  5. laurens
    Hooray, Johnson against a righty again! And what's Fuku doing out of the leadoff spot? I'd like to know what Lou was thinking when he put that line-up together.

    UZR? Oh, I'm gonna leave this to Dextermorgan. You do realize that UZR has some serious flaws, right? oh yeah, care to elaborate? The fact that, much like most other defensive stats, it's based on observation, that it doesn't factor in the fielder's arm strength and his ability to turn a DP. 1. it isn't based on observation 2. i don't think you understand what a fact is 3. it's a range metric, no [expletive] it doesn't factor throwing arm and DP ability 4. both of those are however, measured through different stats already factored into WAR Then I must be mistaking it with another stat... sorry.

    Yeah, just realized that. You do realize that with his production instead of Bradley's we'd probably be in front of the Cards right?

    50-44 what? runs below average? yeah, I'd take that for the offensive numbers he'd put up at Wrigley. EDIT: yeah, stupid me just realized you were talking about Cubs standings.

    I'd have been thrilled if the Cubs signed Dunn to a 10 mil/year deal last offseason.
  12. laurens
    I'm not denying that Dunn is awful in the outfield. He is. Morgan is clearly better. But I disagree with you on the fact that because Morgan is better defensively, he is a better all-round player than Dunn.

    Why do you only care about a players defense? If you want to use stats like how much runs a player costs because of his defense, you could also say Dunn has a RC (runs created) of 76 while Morgan only has 48 RC. So you could say Dunn makes up for his defense with his offensive abbilities, and then some.

    For 2009, Adam Dunn has an EqA of .322. That is definitely NOT middle of the road.
  16. laurens
    No he isn't.
  17. laurens
    OPStards? Really? Oh and I'd much rather have Dunn on my team than Morgan.
  18. laurens
    Nice!
  19. laurens
    now THAT was unexpected.
  20. laurens
    The Reds helped him out there, big time.
  21. laurens
    Yay, wild Marmol
  22. laurens
    The Reds apparently have interest, but he doesn't want to be traded to a losing team. I think he's just terrified of Dusty.
  23. laurens
    I LOVE YOU ARAMIS

    Depends on what you mean by "better" More impressive achievement is how they were discussing. But I can't think of a definition that would make me think Kerry pitched a better game that day than Buehrle did yesterday I think a 20K no-hitter (yes, to me it was a no-hitter) is more dominant than a perfect game. A perfect game has happened 18 times in MLB history, a 20K game only 3 or 4 times.
