    Wait until you see what Peavy's contract does to us toward the end.
  2. Hairyducked Idiot
    Luckily there are no shootouts in the playoffs. Unfortunately, we've been good at losing in OT too.
  3. Hairyducked Idiot
    This team wants me to hate them. So many "moral victories"
  4. Hairyducked Idiot
    He wouldn't have come to us. He went for a lower deal to go to the Stanley Cup champions, something we haven't been in a long time (and are still a ways away from being).

    Radio guys complaining about Hawks having trouble on the faceoff this season. With only one true center on the team, who woulda thunk?
  6. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm really glad this team scores a lot of goals.
  7. Hairyducked Idiot
    I really, really don't like Huet.
  8. Hairyducked Idiot
    I really, really want Detroit in the playoffs. Ideally in the second round.
  9. Hairyducked Idiot
    Toewer > the entire red wings team
  10. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm listening on the radio. I can't wait to hear this one. The radio guys sound just like last year's, even more excited?
  11. Hairyducked Idiot
    Unless it's to get someone significantly better such as Peavy, I think the Cubs would regret trading Marquis for nothing but salary savings.
  12. Hairyducked Idiot
    Toronto has zero payroll to work with right now, and anything they did have would probably be focused toward offense.
  13. Hairyducked Idiot
    Don't forget Toronto. Second-best team in the division last season by pythagorean wins. I think they are being excessively overlooked this time around.
  14. Hairyducked Idiot
    FYP
  15. Hairyducked Idiot
    The fact that it's so unprecedented would make me even less likely to project a rebound.
  16. Hairyducked Idiot
    i like len too
  17. Hairyducked Idiot
    ... can't pitch on the ro- just kidding.
  18. Hairyducked Idiot
    Somebody has to say it... Leadoff isn't a position.
  19. Hairyducked Idiot
    glad i could make your day a little worse
  20. Hairyducked Idiot
    Only his K's. His BBs and HRs are not.
  21. Hairyducked Idiot
    SO I WIN?!? (Just kidding) I award you.... 5.0 points.
  22. Hairyducked Idiot
    The fact that most pitchers do pitch a little worse on the road has persuaded me to temper my lack of enthusiasm for 2009 Peavy. It remains for 2009 Harden and Dempster.
  23. Hairyducked Idiot
    5.0 (I agree with conventional wisdom on a large majority of issues. I just don't post about it because there's no point in saying "Hey guys, I think Geovany Soto is a good hitter for a catcher!)
  24. Hairyducked Idiot
    Yes. If Harden stays healthyish, Dempster holds onto most of his 2008, and Peavy pitches as I'd project, that's the best rotation in the NL. It's got a good chance to be even without that.
  25. Hairyducked Idiot
    Reasonable projection: Dempster reverts at least halfway back between 2008 and previous norms Harden pitches his career average for innings pitched Peavy pitches his career road average Zambrano and Lilly have years very similar to their last two. Why is it reasonable to predict that Peavy is going to pitch to his career road average. Isn't there are small advantage to pitching at home that shows up in the splits (assuming you don't play in Coors or Chase Field or something) About half a run. So take Peavy's career road ERA, subtract half a point, and you get 3.30, almost exactly his statistical projects posted earlier. Intersting.
