    This just isn't true.

    At least its good trash, not like the US team. No, it's dirty, dirty trash.

    It's times like this I wish I had all my Calvin and Hobbes scanned and archived so I could post the one where Calvin says "I'm not playing with a full deck", and Hobbes goes "that's been apparent for quite a while", then a pause, then Calvin says "HEY!". That would've been cool.

    Was that Rundle's first game?

    How absolutely insane is it that Garcia or Vazquez are available for a middle reliever? With the Reds trade and rumors like this, there's at least some hope that we can begin the process of undoing Hendry's dismantling of the team by dealing at least some of our pen at the deadline.
  7. Transmogrified Tiger
    Okay, now this is just awkward.
  8. Transmogrified Tiger
    It seems like going further back than that he's had a bit of a good run too.
  9. Transmogrified Tiger
    Why in the world would you do that? okay, how about russell branyan? Branyan strikes out way to much to be a everyday player No he doesn't, and he was advocating a bench role.

    Cubbies75 is going to be devastated. I did my part to help him out.
  11. Transmogrified Tiger
    Sign me up for some Betemit and Cuddyer.

    Several defensive metrics have rated Jones easily below average as a RF, I don't want him in CF unless he's just holding the spot for the rest of this year.

    *Swoon*

    Somebody's got to crack the whip.

    Dusty appreciates Neifi's play, so he must not play baseball poorly. Weak argument. Baseball has boundaries, rules, winners, losers. Therefore there has to be a correct way to do it. Art has no such limitations, it's value is not in winning, only in it's perception, which is completely up to the person who is exposed to it. Terrible analogy.

    Sounds made up

    A top 40 OBP is .380+ Of the top 40 in AVG, only 22 are in the top 40 in OBP.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    I need to stop posting in threads after O_O already perfectly says what I want to.

    Patterson and Gallagher were both in the top 12 of Cubs prospects before this season. Just because they have a negative report doesn't mean they hate a player or will continue to pan some guy. Dan Uggla having a ridiculous BABIP inflated half season doesn't prove that BA is a fraud. BA on Harvey: "Harvey has a huge ceiling but will have to make several adjustments at the plate to reach it. He's a free swinger with a long stroke who struggles against inside fastballs and chases wayward breaking balls. His two-strike approach is poor. It remains to be seen how well Harvey will do against more advanced pitching, and he'll probably never hit for a high average." BA combines potential and the ability to meet that potential in their rankings. They're very good at what they do, no matter how much of a vendetta people may have against them.

    IT'S BECAUSE IT'S ART, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PLAYING POORLY IF PEOPLE APPRECIATE IT I haven't heard a lot of the White Stripes stuff, but I think they sound pretty good from the stuff I know. It's all subjective.

    Exactly, the way he answered the question reflects on him ignoring plate discipline in players. I'm confused about your comment. What did he say that was incorrect? Care to prove that most of the High OBP guys are not also good hitters? When asked about OBP, Hendry says that high OBP guys are good hitters, then references that players are supposed to hit their way, not walk. It's exactly what O_O said, he correlates the ability to get on base with that of hitting for a high average, while downplaying/dismissing the walk.

  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    It's a nice way of saying walks don't matter. There are much better ways to get that point across, and it's self evident anyways.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    Who cares. Do you really think that even if we aquire a good prospect that we'll do anything with him? Anything to keep Pierre from being here beyond this year.
  25. Transmogrified Tiger
    Pie? Jeebers. Maybe that means Pierre is out the door.
