  1. hopefully that was the bad half
  2. Tisdale is such a frustrating player.
  3. Have you guys seen oregon's new court?
  4. What was the quality like on btn.com? I just noticed that IU's game tonight is only available there as well (lame). Regardless, I'll probably give it a shot since the alternative is watching "Survivor" (until the Blackhawks come on). I never had any picture freezes or anything. Just be prepared for some awful StudentU announcers.
  5. I watched them on bigtennetwork.com. I was bored last night so I wasted some money. I think the next two games are on espn3 only.
  6. did you watch? They looked sloppy for sure, but it looked like the freshman just need to adjust to the speed and everybody needs to get used to playing with each other. Plus McCamey hasn't really been running the point, since Bruce is trying to develop a back up. I thought Paul looked a lot better last night than he did last year. He seemed much more under control and made better decisions. Of course it helped his shot was falling.
  7. Red Ruffing Eppa Rixey George Gore Davey Lopes Red Ruffing I like Red Ruffing
  8. nevermind, i don't know the rules apparently
  9. Nebraska is getting screwed.
  10. Bedard, right? Sounds like IR is a real possibility. I know the doctors I went to weren't the quality of what Finley has, but when I had my meniscus repaired 6 years ago I wasn't allowed to put any weight on that leg for 6 weeks.
  11. shut up you douchebag. looks fair to me
  12. Wilson is wrong, it wasn't said by Cutler. Lovie said it about Jay.
  13. My boredom shows, eh? you should make the Cardinals' scores red, but the Cubs' scores blue. :stickman:
  14. Fred is getting fancy with the play by play. :good:
  15. Haven't they been "investigating" the bats for 5+ years now?
  16. Kosuke OPS: .844 Crawford OPS: .845 Kosuke wOBA: .367 Crawford wOBA: .374 I think you have to account for Crawford's SB though. I do agree that he is only a marginable upgrade and likely won't be worth the contract he commands. wOBA does include SB and CS. JeffH's point was that while the rates may be the same, cumulative value is certainly in Crawford's favor due to the additional PA's. yea, I agreed with JeffH's point was just pointing out to Jazz that wOBA included those things. I just wish everybody would start using wOBA instead of OPS.
  17. That seems highly unlikely, since Kosuke has 200 fewer plate appearances than Crawford. Kosuke OPS: .844 Crawford OPS: .845 Kosuke wOBA: .367 Crawford wOBA: .374 I think you have to account for Crawford's SB though. I do agree that he is only a marginable upgrade and likely won't be worth the contract he commands. wOBA does include SB and CS.
  18. Nice to see that the Cards finally came around to my way of thinking. Anyone interested in a rimshot 5K AM? http://www.rbr.com/radio/27207.html I just hope this doesn't mean the end of the first pitch tickets.
  19. They use different defensive statistics which can sometime cause a difference. Tango's opinion
  20. I haven't seen this posted Alabama can't spell Mississippi
  21. A somewhat interesting post from Fangraphs about Derrek Lee's poor BABIP. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/derrek-lees-down-year/
  22. Alright, thanks. We're getting closer, but that still doesn't address the combo of Pujols 2/pitcher 8. In fact, Tango says only in extreme situations (Adam Everett, Tony Pena Jr) should you hit your pitcher 8th. I may have misread his post, but it appeared to me that Rob was putting importance on the combo of moving the pitcher to the 8 spot and Pujols (or the best hitter in the lineup, I would assume) to the 2 spot. I don't see the connection. you misread, that was saying you should only bat your worst position player 8th in the American League if it's an extreme situation. Batting your best hitter 2nd is optimal and the effect is maximized when you have your pitcher 8th because it increases the RBI opportunities for the top of the lineup.
  23. when did MLB At Bat change. It looks like they are using super nintendo graphics.
