Stringer bias

I don't see this info anywhere. It wouldn't be a dumb move though. Doubront was a league average SP as recently as 2013 and 2012, and Sanchez' best role is a relief pitcher anyway.

He threw his first bullpen since being injured today or yesterday.

Not being sarcastic here. I think it's a great thought (made even greater by the simplicity - the "why didn't I think of that" factor). I'm not really sure what could be done with the data, but I'm sure quite a bit. For instance, if certain batters are only productive when hitting the ball way out front, a team could throw more offspeed pitches. If the data showed that one of your struggling hitters had a very deep average contact point, then the coaches could work on getting them started earlier. It's just new information. The nerds could figure out what to do with it.

Congratulations - this is the type of thought that can lead to a brief window if statistical advantage for a major league front office. Too bad you don't belong to one... hopefully somebody who does is reading (wink wink). Should be easy info to get with Statcast.

The Padres' offseason constructed a nearly perfect schism between the statistically literate and the unwashed others.

I'll give you waiver #60 for pick #40 and waiver #90

And before bed, I'd also like to mention that I absolutely loathe each and every one of my players. night

The most important thing is that KK's team name will forever and always be Kitten Mittens, despite whatever else he tries to make it

I like brryant - lol bts just fine If it must change, maybe AFK would be fitting, in honour of your frequent absences.

Too similar to Balco Pharm Team

Indeed. Goins is terribad. That patented foul pop out down the LF line is getting very old...

I already have you on suicide watch FWIW

Matt Duffy Joe Panik Brandon Crawford All at 1.7 fWAR or above already. All at 124 wRC+ or above right now. How can the team that thinks it's a good idea to acquire Casey McGehee also develop guys like this, at will? How come every Giants IF fringe prospect isn't owned in this league? Christian Arroyo, anyone?

Alfredo Simon, duh.

I traded Stanton for Puig and Kluber a few weeks ago in a dum 12 teamer. Kuechel isn't somebody I'd be looking to buy right now. He's not a league winner, and you'd just be paying out the nose for performance to date. Owning Stanton is so fun too...

I dunno, I sense some growing attachment...

Jaime Garcia will break your heart

this thread f***ing blows

That's weird, I didn't even notice that Almonte got cut. I guess his peripherals suck this year.

It was brought up by tercet, but shown to be patently false; Hoffman was 1st (maybe 2nd?) in K% in his conference during his 3rd year.
