    SLG% is a relevant stat for every player no matter what position they play or where they hit. Depends on what you consider a large enough sample, but Theriot definitely had terrible stretches. Considering your baseless claims about Lilly being inconsistent, I'll assume the claims about Theriot are similar to that, and my perusing BR gamelogs more strictly is worthless to me and you.

    What were they supposed to do? Once this game started, it was getting completed. It wasn't that bad when the game started. Stunned, BJ didn't wipe out rounding third.

    This is crazy. If this is tied at the end of any inning this is going to at least be severely delayed

    jesus christ, what century is this? There's a street on the south side of Chicago where one half of the street is dry and the other half has pretty much nothing but bars and liquor stores.

    I like Steve Lavin for both his UCLA program destruction and his familiar voice on Big 10 games. I don't want to have to hate him. Why would you hate him when all he'd do is continue Arizona's destruction? Despite your odd enjoyment of Steve Lavin the announcer, you're getting GUS JOHNSON for some Big 10 games. Talk about win win here. It's kinda how I came to love Chip Caray by the time he left. He's a familiar voice that broadcasted a hell of a lot of memorable games for my team. But yeah, GUS

    If Towers takes that, Hendry has some nasty pictures of him. That platter wouldn't land Peavy alone, let alone Greene. I'm thinking Pie/Theriot/Marshall/Veal/Adkins might get them to discuss that deal. I'm thinking he's operating under the assumption that Greene has negative trade value. Not outrageous depending on just how much money Moores needs to recoup. Honestly, I think Pie/Castillo/Marshall would be a decent start. This is exactly what I'm thinking. Whatever he's owed in 2009, it's probably a hell of a lot more than San Diego wants to pay for him. He's not going to get cheaper. They aren't going to contend, so they'd be probably wanting to tack him on to any Peavy deal, much like Willis was dealt with Cabrera. Greene signed a 2Y/11M deal prior to last season. ESPN has his salary at 4.5M for last year. Bonuses may affect it in some way, but ~6M seems like a safe guess. Khalil was awful last year and will be a free agent after this season. You nailed it, he's a worse version of Dontrelle to Peavy's Cabrera.

    As a Cub, 1 start allowing 0 runs. 0 starts knocked out in the 2nd inning or earlier.

    Probably cause every team they've played since is better than Miss St.

    Nor would he have to to get Peavy.

    Dammit Rich. I also want Kroeger rostered.

    This will come in handy next time I'm in the shower.

    How is that measured? What's included in that? I'm not familiar with that statistic. It uses WPA(win probability added, the basis for those graphs you'll see linked around here a lot.) tOPS+ is his OPS+ relative to his career OPS+ WPA as a stat definitely has its flaws, but as a means of identifying leveraged situations, it's pretty good.
  16. SouthSideRyan
    BR leverage stats. High: 103 tOPS+ Medium: 102 tOPS+ Low: 96 tOPS+

    Who hits well in the clutch season after season.

    He stole about 3x as many bases as he averaged over those many PAs. He also hit about 1/3 the amount of HRs. What he meant was that without the padres terrible arms behind the plate he wouldn't have stolen as many bases and people wouldn't be talking about Holliday being such a "speed threat". As previously mentioned he stole 19 bases vs. other teams. Holliday's steals are pretty far down the list of why I want him.

    So is the consensus that Longoria shoulda let that ball go last night?

    Question: Is beating Ole Miss 24-20 at home different than losing to Ole Miss at home 31-30 because of a missed XPT? If you answer anything other than "No" you're [expletive]. Again, Bama isn't better than Florida because Florida missed that extra point. You know what when Alabama whups Florida in Atlanta in about month and change, you will see why I like Alabama's better then Florida. You can write this down now......If Alabama and Florida meet in the SECCG Alabama will beat Florida by 3 TD's. The only team in the SEC East I do not want to face in the SECCG is Georgia, and next week GA is going to show why Florida is abit overrated. Ok, this is just looney.

Again, Bama isn't better than Florida because Florida missed that extra point. Is winning different than losing? In those cases? The answer is no. In the standings yes, in actually telling us how good teams are? absolutely not. again, i dont see how this so hard for you guys to understand. it's not a difficult concept. it's a concept that you guys *gasp* believe in baseball but dont believe in football because the season is shorter magnifying individual wins and losses (which is incredibly stupid).

    yeah i decided to go to UT because they were a consensus top 5 team at the beginning of the season. And you didn't force Tim Tebow to wink at you that one time.
  23. SouthSideRyan
    The SEC isn't really too good.
  24. SouthSideRyan

    Sutcliffe is just about my least favorite baseball TV personality. Mark Grace is just about my least favorite personality.
