  1. Sori 225/279 slug 319 Lee 226/289 slug 298 Ramirez 196/308 slug 464 Edmonds 277/365 slug 523 One has been there and did well while the others have struggled in post season play. Again, does this mean Edmonds will lead them to victory because of these numbers...maybe, maybe not. But, He may be a calming influence on these players and add a tip or two that they may be able to implement have have a little more success. Not that any of this matters, but what were those numbers before last year's playoffs?
  2. Kevin Hart came up last year and posted a 0.82 ERA with 13K and 4BB in 11 IP. Just sayin.
  3. It's a good sign when so many of people's concerns revolve around the batting order in some way, which doesn't really matter all that much.
  4. Soriano had been there before. Lee had been there before. Aramis had been there before. Others, too. I know Banedon acknowledged this in the first post. I'm just pointing out that if they were, in fact, pressing last year, then the very people who some people seem to expect to be calmed down somehow by a guy that's been there before had already been there before themselves and weren't calmed by their own experience.
  5. I'm hoping that what they're implying with the "boundary calls such as HR" part is that all fair/foul calls will be challenge-able. If so, this would be a good start.
  6. Oh, nevermind... that pitch sure looked like it hit Sori on Gameday... :oops:
  7. Pitcher got tossed for pegging Soriano
  8. The Braves have hit Soriano like eleventy billion times since we've had him.
  9. Second game should be starting at 6:15 CDT
  10. Reed Johnson is nowhere near the conversation for MVP Again, it's most valuable, not most underrated or overlooked or most-clutch or anything else like that... See pet peeve thread :evil: But yea, here's my list... :thumbsup: Dempster Z Soriano Ramirez Geo
  11. I'm not saying Soriano shouldn't be criticized when he does dumb stuff, but Bob sure likes to overstate the dumb stuff. Fans will pick up and run with those comments. On the other hand, you won't hear him laying into Theriot for all the dumb stuff he does sometimes.
  12. Bob's a dick. He's all about that old school nonsense. I wouldn't call him a dick, but he does lay into Cubs players a little too much at times. Especially players that have such a huge impact on how well we play...
  13. Might have to DL him. Brewers will make their decision later in the week on whether to do it.
  14. yay fuku-walk You guys hear what they said on the broadcast about Braun?
  15. Soriano has been absolutely on fire for the whole time he's been back
  16. More like Rich "I'm so dominating that I wind up throwing way too many pitches because nobody can make any solid contact off me and only last around 6 innings" Harden, amirite?
  17. Fun fact - statistically our pen has been about on par with Milwaukee's That's probably somewhat skewed by all the garbage innings we've had, though...
  18. Yes, because of the nature of the game, W-L will often wind up doing a decent job of being representative of how well a pitcher has done. It will also often do a bad job of painting the picture. You're never going to be in this theoretical situation where you can only look at the W-L record. Why even bother with such a flawed and inherently inferior stat?
  19. If we manage to hang on in this one, that's 6 consecutive road victories.
  20. At least all this is happening with two outs....
