    That should put the O's fans from the other day in a frenzy!

    I keep seeing people talk about how much harder the turf is on the body, yet soccer is using that on all fields now and many football teams are as well partly because it's supposed to reduce injury. I wonder which is correct?

    Ricciardi basically came in with a plan based on how the A's were operating at the time, executed it, and found out that what worked in the AL West didn't work in the AL East. AA had/has a plan, has so far (by all appearances) executed it, and it's yet to be determined whether it will work or not. The one big difference that I see is that AA seems to be more flexible with the plan (evidenced by the pen this year).

    Thames was just designated for assignment. To say we won THAT trade by a mile is the understatement of the year.
  6. Abomination
    Nice try. Only for walk off, not game winning.
  7. Abomination
    Lind
  8. Abomination
    This game is flying
  9. Abomination
    Third overall pick.
  10. Abomination
    He doesn't seem to be making many mistakes so far today. Hopefully his real self appears soon though.

    In fairness to Gibby, Buehrle is the only guy who's really been healthy, and he's looked pretty fatigued around 100 pitches a few times. I suspect if JJ stays healthy now and Dickey's back gets better those two could be allowed to go longer in the second half.

    Gibbons even won an argument with the ump. Everything we're doing right now is coming up Jays!
  13. Abomination
    Wow, that was a great pitch too. Lind on fire!
  14. Abomination
    We really need to improve in our sliding technique
  15. Abomination
    Hammel has a good breaking ball tonight. Gonna have to lay off that with two strikes.
  16. Abomination
    Melky

    Found this article on ESPN.com regarding the trend towards higher strikeout rates in baseball. Interesting (and slightly disturbing imo) read. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9404316/mlb-players-striking-record-pace

    Ideally Davis never comes to the plate with anyone on base. If we have several runs lead, pitch to him. Otherwise, intentionally walk him. If he goes 0-0 for the series with 12 walks, so be it.
  19. Abomination
    Lind has been averaging about 4.5 per game since he's been in the lineup regularly. He also currently has 213 PA coming into today (it's 3.1 PA, NOT AB).

    Seems that the Japanese Nippon League was frustrated at the lack of home runs, so they decided to juice ... the balls. Finally they had to admit it. http://espn.go.com/new-york/story/_/id/9404524/refreshing-honesty-nippon-baseball-league

    It's been doing that periodically for me too. Is there a setting somewhere that automatically marks a thread as read if it's older than a certain amount?
  22. Abomination
    I think a prospect subforum would be appropriate since there seems to be quite a bit of interest, and keeping it all in the main thread is either cluttering things up or restricting how easy it is to keep good information readily discussed/accessible. It's not a big deal either way though.
  23. Abomination
    You could question how Gibbons ran spring training, but aside from that I have pretty much zero complaints about what he's done managing the team (maybe one or two odd bullpen moves, assuming other guys were available). How often can you say that about ANY manager?

    Here we are. Relievers have outperformed their FIP every year since 2002, and their FIP has outperformed their xFIP every year as well (Fangraphs only has xFIP from 2002 and on). http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=rel&lg=all&qual=0&type=8&season=2013&month=0&season1=2002&ind=0&team=0,ss&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0
  25. Abomination
    I posted about that the other day. Relievers on average outperform it, and starters underperform it.
