corey is a boras boy I've tried searching for the same kind of website.. no luck. If anyone knows of any, please share. http://www.mlbcontracts.blogspot.com -
He might be able to do that if he didn't have: 1) A high priced wife who sucks every last dollar out of his bank account and 2) An agent who keeps telling him he needs to hit home runs or he won't get paid. Haha, awesome. Completely baseless and false, but awesome.

Yes, because Carpenter and Lee compare completely. Carpenter leads in just about every pitching metric known to man.
-
That really is something else McCarver. Now shut up about the cars.
-
for those of us deemed not cool enough to watch the game by FOX, what happened? Foul bunt deflected him "below the belt".
-
Clemens' opposition: .184 LD%, .238 BABIP Carpenter's opposition: .194 LD%, .263 BABIP Clemens hasn't been that much luckier than Carpenter.
-
Better K/BB and more Ks than Clemens. That's about it, though (unless you're a fool who loves wins for pitchers). What a silly thought. I'm still a little surprised that Edmonds thought the wall was only 8-feet high. And that the ball was about 7 feet to his right.
-
Better than Walker this year, (especially hitting for the cycle) and he is still better than Walker defensively. Walker > Grudz, and it's not very close.
-
Carpenter can't locate at all, and we don't take a single strike that inning. Horrible control yet a 14 pitch inning.

Here's the problem with trying to use this: Womack didn't have a Bonds-esque season, as you make it sound like. His OPS on the season was 30 points higher that Eckstien's career average. Yet it was still easily the best season of Womack's career, at age 34. 2002 (with Pittsburgh): .94 WHIP, .161 BAA, 2.65 ERA 2003 (with Yankees): 1.29 WHIP, .201 BAA, 3.18 ERA 2005 (with Cardinals): .91 WHIP, .175 BAA, 2.54 ERA Why can't you say that 2003 was a fluke from his recent history? 2002: 17 IP 2003: 17 IP 2004: 12 IP 2005: 46 IP Reyes has pitched as many innings this year as the last 3 years combined. He hasn't been within 20 innings of this year's total since 1999. The point remains is that the Cardinals have consistently gotten players to overachieve. Some of that can be attributed to coaching, some to luck. How much of each we'll never know. However, you can't deny the good fortunes of the Cards the last few years as they have had significantly better W-L records than their performance should have dictated.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 8-13-05
Transmogrified Tiger replied to Outshined_One's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
It would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy the game. -
Go on.
-
Looks like TLR is playing the L/R matchup even though Taguchi has been good against RHP lately.
-
Thank you for giving us a sporting chance Dusty.
-
I'd probably call it an anomaly because of sample size, like you say.
-
Abort! Haha, with the cap system we had it was either them or Cleveland. Since Defenses can't get hurt, and we don't score based on points allowed, they'll be there until Tampa is off, then I'll cut them for the cap space.
-
Your team looks pretty good, although you might be in trouble if Brown and Henry start over your two RBs. I really like your wideouts. I drafted a team tonight in a 10 team league with friends. We play with a salary cap of sorts, but I'm really happy with my team. QB Bulger RB D. Davis RB K. Jones WR Holt WR Roy Williams TE Witten K Wilkins DEF Tampa Bay BN Harrington BN L. Jordan BN Cadillac Williams BN Michael Clayton BN Jimmy Smith BN Teyo Johnson BN J. Carney BN STL Defense Any thoughts?

Great Pitcher Matchup in Houston tonight
Transmogrified Tiger replied to Jake's topic in General Baseball Talk
Absolutely true... offensively, he is definitely better than Prior. Sorry, it's a joke. The Pirates board at the time of the Ramirez trade had a thread where one guy insisted that JVB was better than Prior. It was high comedy. -
I didn't mean that the offense has helped his ERA, just that the offense has given him wins (moreso in the past than this year), and his ERA is based a lot on luck. .284 Batting average against 1.38 WHIP Less than 5 Ks/9 This is the worst season of his career statistically, but the best in ERA. BAA, WHIP, K/9 and walks are at a career worst for him. He's not good. Isn't the ERA based on real good defense?? Vlad, Finley, Cabrera, Molina and Erstad are are well above average defensively correct?? The Cubs can't hold a candle to the Angels defensively. Washburn's fielding independent ERA is 4.44 this year. Link

Van Benschoten > Prior -
But its a save opportunity now right? Nope, you can't create your own save situation.
-
Tavarez's hat was clean, and he has no control. Hmmm...
-
Please remember this when Wood is rehabbing his surgery until May.

Barrett DOMINATES left handed pitching.
