Lawrie is a 'tard.

[Metallijay]

Hitting better than edwin, rasmus, boni, and everyone not named lind or bautista currently...over the course of the last month no...but he is hitting right now

 

lol @ 3 game= sample, you mental midget.

lol @ 3 game= sample, you mental midget.

 

I didnt say overall or for the entire season u idiot...I said at this very moment

3 games is not this very moment, too small a sample, if he goes 0 for tonight its meaningless and still hitting ,180. Wake me up when he's been hitting well for a few weeks. You cannot say he's hitting better then everyone except lind, JB based on 3 games idiot.

at this very moment he's probably taking a dump and twittering about it. not sure how that helps him as a player.

I will agree to disagree on the definition of at this moment...I guess I will wake u up in a week and a half.

Gibbons said Lawrie apologized to team for Sunday's antics in meeting today before batting practice.

[Angrioter]

Adam Lind says Brett Lawrie was contrite for bringing attention to himself and team for wrong reasons.

[Angrioter]

Post the sources man! Davidi works hard to get quotes.

 

How i make?

Copy and paste the link?

[Angrioter]

Use the twitter inset thing. Every tweet has a number, you put that number in between [ tweet ] [ /tweet ] (without spaces)

 

Thanks bro

It's not much worse than the 36g sample people have been using on these boards.

[DuckDuckGose]

If you get rid of the spaces in the [ tweet], [ /tweet] it will embed nicely. Northof49 only included the spaces so that it would not embed and you could see the text.

A sample 12 times smaller is not much worse?

[DuckDuckGose]

They both are insignificant and will be misconstrued. However if you want to look at current trends, like an impending hot streak, the last 3 games is probably more useful than the last 36.

While I agree that a 36 game sample is fairly insignificant, it's not nearly as egregious as drawing conclusions from a three game sample. I think trying to predict hot streaks is a pretty dubious undertaking regardless.

Ya, I wouldn't bet on who is going to get hot/cold it's a very dubious undertaking. More to the point both sample are insignificant, 36 games is closer to significant than 3 but you really shouldn't draw conclusions from either.

[DuckDuckGose]

I don't think this is actually true.

 

If someone actually looked in to it I'm sure you could find some sort of relationship between the previous 5 games performance and the next game. I highly doubt it would be a strong relationship though and probably just proves that both samples suck. Additionally I think they point of the post was more "Lawrie is showing improvement this week" and people jumped to the 36 game sample which, is where my comment stemmed from.

this board is full of mental midgets.

[DuckDuckGose]

There is no such thing as a hot streak. A player plays to their talent level.

 

Over a full season I completely agree. However the maxs/mins of the ebb and flow of performance can be described as hot/cold streaks in my opinion.

[Metallijay]

They both are insignificant and will be misconstrued. However if you want to look at current trends, like an impending hot streak, the last 3 games is probably more useful than the last 36.

 

LOL, epic fail. You and Lawrie must use the same baseball handbook.

[DuckDuckGose]

LOL, epic fail.

 

And you just outed yourself as a 13 year old. Congratulations.

whatever helps you sleep at night amateur.

[DuckDuckGose]

Amateur? How do I ascend the ranks to professional poster or do you mean professional e-arguer? Should I say things like LOL and epic? Perhaps I should start insulting people's intelligence at the drop of a pin, since that screams super cool, genius, e-thug and not massive inferiority complex, right?

[Candy Maldonado]

lol you don't even know what constitutes a foul ball

[Metallijay]

lol you don't even know what constitutes a foul ball

 

lol what? You still harping on that? I just repeated what tabs said during the game without in depth knowledge of the rule book, a momentary lapse of reason, i assume you're a perfect human? Also the personality of a knat and OCd to boot.

[DuckDuckGose]

After the fact yes. But if you have any series of independent events you'll see streaks. During those streaks, the event wasn't 'hot', it just happened.

 

If we had two identical players Bautista and Batista who had the same talent and Bautista homered yesterday, today they'd have equal chance at homering.

 

Absolutely agree there. However if a player has a few good weeks, perhaps a month how would you describe it other than a hot streak? A luck streak? You can call it whatever you want but they certainly exist.

Amateur knowledge of baseball, who said anything about posting?

[DuckDuckGose]

You get paid for your baseball knowledge? Who pays you, your mom? Is that how she justifies giving you allowance? Pro tip, if you want to get paid for your "baseball knowledge" (and be a pro!) I'd start by learning how to effectively communicate a thought.

oh at least now you admit you are wrong and a moron, carry on in your stupidity. You don't need in depth knowledge to know what a foul ball is. There is a line drawn on the grass for a reason. durrrrrrr Someone has to be the forum retard and I guess it is you. Wear it proud scarecrow. If only you had a brain.

You idiot I know what a foul ball is I played baseball ROFL. I was repeating what tabler said or you too stupid to understand that? You call me retard but you cannot understand simple english? Where you the product of your mommy and daddy being brother and sister? Again, what part of "I repeated what tabler said"""......................... Idiot. Maybe you should learn to read english before posting, don't want your head to explode.
