I wouldn't put much into that. Without fieldfx the defensive metrics are all extremely flawed. One way to evaluate that is that last year Angels pitching gave up a 17% line drive rate (one of the best in the league). This year they're giving up 23% (one of the worst). Now I know those metrics attempt to incorporate that, but it's impossible to do so with the general categories they're restricted to with current data collection. It's likely (although currently impossible to prove) that last year Trout faced a lot more easy catches, while this year he's facing very few. That would impact his overall numbers through no fault of his own. Last year his defensive WAR was probably too high, this year waaaaay too low. Just my opinion.

I'd have to think he'd become the first person to exceed 300M at minimum.
-
Miller out for Cards after facing 1 batter (guessing he was hit by the ball, but not watching live).
-
I'm glad that strike call was to Boni and not Bautista. He would have gone ballistic.
-
Apparently it would be MDR though.
-
Rasmus beat that out. Can't really complain too much though, we have gotten a lot of breaks on calls this series.
-
Well, that sure turned out to be a costly error by Lawrie. Hopefully he can make up for it.
-
This series has been both entertaining and extremely painful at the same time.
-
Not easy to walk Morse either.

People may not have been quite as happy about it as I remembered, but there's so many deleted posts in the threads that it's impossible to get any kind of accurate sense. There certainly were a good number on both sides. Here's one of the threads for reference: http://www.forums.mlb.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?tsn=1&nav=messages&webtag=ml-bluejays&tid=69927

I seem to recall quite a few people being happy when EE was released, so I don't think Wilner is wrong.
-
Seager almost threw that one away too.
-
We certainly don't hit many cheap ones. Both of those were destroyed.
-
Well, Boni finally kept a bunt fair. Lol Seager.
-
My point is that either that's true for basically all teams, or there are likely more teams than not who that happen to more than us. It just seems worse for us subjectively since we follow this team more closely.
-
Over the last decade, the Jays are 7th in the AL in ERA and 5th in runs scored (offense).
-
Happ sitting at 93mph. That's a good sign at least.
-
His arm strength is probably above average as well, it's just his accuracy that sucks.
-
sore knee
-
Thole in at catcher!
-
The funny thing is, Boni will probably go 3-4 with a home run, double, single, stolen base, and 3 runs scored. Every time we seem to wonder what Gibby is smoking, the players seem to have a good game.
-
Are we sure that's the actual lineup? I don't see it posted anywhere yet other than espn. edited: nm, I think it just was.

Blue Jays First Home Run Contest Thread

Wow, Cecil just hit 95mph
-
I've wondered that myself, but it seems to be more of an airflow problem than a stadium dimension problem.
