  1. I maybe might be interested? Kind of been on the lookout for a backup MIF.
  2. Definitely wasn't 6 standard deviations better than average. I think his overall st.dev would just be his zscore sum / 7 (seven categories).
  3. I had no idea that Moore was throwing so slowly. For the past year+, really.
  4. Ump crews rotate home plate though. Even if they get the same crew for 8 games, pretty sure they'd see 4 different home plate umps 2x. So I don't think the ump bias would be large. With four umps you'd think some of the tendencies would cancel out. Could definitely be a factor though!
  5. It's not even that crazy, really, considering that 4 games could equal 500, 600+ pitches. So four games might sound like a small sample, but when you think about it like 500+ events, is it really that small?
  6. Yea but did you get a rimjob at the bus station from a nineteen year old street rat?
  7. It's possible. Try letting it recharge on the windowsill. How fat are your fingers?
  8. He turns 34 this year and he was pretty bad in 2012 before being downright terrible in 2013. I have no optimism, and ZiPS projects 0.1 fWAR in 101 games for a reason. I really think his type of role is something that any not-retarded team can fill with a more talented 500k player.
  9. Izturis needs to just be cut loose! He provided extreme negative on-the-field value last year, and this year he's providing a different kind of negative value by getting in the way of more useful players (Diaz or Goins). He's a sunk cost that should have been punted away before the season began! I think I've said this like 20 times now! Why won't AA listen to me!?
  10. We are getting together at Spanky's pre-game for Oxy cocktails, meet there fatcow. Dirty 'Shwa.
  11. I have to catch a bush plane back to the sticks after the game on Saturday. Don't count on me
  12. scald·ing (skôl′dĭng) adj. 4. Harshly critical or denunciatory; scathing: a scalding review of the play. *slams dictionary shut* *re-opens "weird insertions" tab in IE*
  13. Yea man! I'll let you know what bar we're meeting at.
  14. Attn: Boxy Indeed, especially the yellow ones. Puppies and muffins, NJH
  15. To All, ECJF must have gotten in trouble at work today or something. Maybe he broke dresscode and got a scalding so loud that it could be heard two cubicles over. Sincerely, NJH
  16. It would be the scout's own gun, so it wouldn't be hot. He's saying Sanchez has been 96-98 with heavy sink all night. Pretty sure he threw that hard last year, more or less.
  17. Aaron Sanchez dealing tonight. Goose egg through 5 with 5 k's and 2 walks, 1 hit allowed. Scout on twitter said he went "97 on the black, 97 on the black, hammer curve" to strikeout Gary Sanchez. Felt sorry for Gary.

    Anyone remember that one week midway through this season when Toronto sportscasters were wondering if Phil Kessel was currently the best player in the world?
  19. Just a fluke, but I love this. Mark Buehrle career FIP = 4.17 2014 TIPS after one fantastic 0.77 FIP start = 4.13
  20. Without the hardcore nerd geeksquad core, this place wouldn't even exist. New members and simpletons who like Ryan Goins, please show respect to board veterans. Please revere the founding fathers.
  21. The Bill James 'Game Score' for Buehrle's perfect game was 93. Tonight - 86. If Lawrie snares that ball to end the game - 91. 11 K's is like a 3-sigma event for Bark Muehrle, lol.
  22. To NJH: Corey Kluber, Kenley Jansen (Bradley, #16) Um. Yes please.
