  1. I'm not sure, but I'm going to assume that true distance is an estimation of where the ball would've landed if it weren't for obstructions? Like I read somewhere that Mickey Mantle hit 600 foot home runs and the reason people say this is because they estimate where his HR's would've hit if the bleachers weren't there, just open space. Just my guess though
  2. I totally forgot about that one. That's one of the most majestic home runs I've seen in a long time
  3. I thought they signed Shawn Michaels
  4. Vasquez was only slightly better than Lilly last year, but better none the less... Lilly: 15-8 207IP 174K's 3.83ERA 1.14WHIP 122 ERA+ Vasquez: 15-8 216IP 213K's 3.74ERA 1.14WHIP 127 ERA+ He was better, but not by a significant margin. This goes for their careers as well. Vasquez career ERA+ = 105. Lilly = 103. An edge to Vasquez no matter which way you slice it
  5. You know what else is misleading? The notion that Jason Kendall doesn't suck
  6. Awesome, now whenever he dominates our pitching we can always hold the "Go call your mommy and daddy" card over his head
  7. How many of the 220 pages thus far have actually been about Brian Roberts?
  8. [cockfightingjoke] [hustlejoke] [philrogerssucksjoke] [/post]
  9. I don't think you realize just how feared of a hitter Jim Rich was. And this is probably one of the most random topics I've seen posted here, considering the oldness of the actual vote. Welcome to the boards, btw.
  10. Someone should make an NSBB Wiki site for all the inside jokes
  11. How many of those at bats with runners on occurred when he was hitting in the middle of the order as a regular? You know, split stats are useful for everything you're discounting. It's not hard to find them either. Just a couple of clicks away from Google. It's incredible, and it makes you smarter, too!
  12. I think the Cubs brass are delusional for thinking Byrd is a good enough player to give up Matt Murton straight up for him. Murton isn't by any means incredible himself, but what is it with this sudden burst of desire for Marlon Byrd? He sucks.
  13. Yup, in 2001, he was the Diamondbacks top prospect according to BA That must have been a pathetic farm system at the time when you look at what Cintron put up in 2000 in the minors... 2000 numbers: .301/.338/.404/.742 That is your #1 prospect in 01? Yeesh. I recall Meph saying something in a previous thread where Cintron was brought up about Cintron being considered the next Derek Jeter at one point. Ha! .317/.359/.489 over 487 PA in 2003. Cintron at least has the tools to put up a decent line... which is something. We could catch lightning in a bottle. Yeah but the last time he really played it was .273 .298 .415 Very icky. And very......Hendry-ish, if I may say so. How many guys come through here who have basically the same OBP as their AVG? FTH with that crap? Which might be better than our current production at the position. Zing! Screw it, I'm sold, when can he start :lol:
  14. Justin Upton is not eligible.
  15. Ooooohhhhhh, good point. I never really considered Kosuke a rookie, but technicalities are technicalities. May the best man win! If Pie had just a little bit less service time, this could have been really interesting... We shouldn't have rushed him like Corey Patterson. [/sarcasm] You're right though, lol
  16. Good point. All in all it's a nice fluff piece.
  17. Interesting quote... Would people here have preferred Swisher over Fukudome?
  18. Didn't see it posted anywhere, if it was, then lock... http://proxy.espn.go.com/mlb/spring2008/columns/story?columnist=crasnick_jerry&id=3251266
  19. Ooooohhhhhh, good point. I never really considered Kosuke a rookie, but technicalities are technicalities. May the best man win!
  20. This would be excellent if we don't give up too much for him. Something tells me we will though if this goes through, but oh well
  21.
