Read it Spanky. The whole thing. They(the supporting links) pulled 5% out if their ass. Their own article guessed that it might be as high as 3.8% assuming more than a few estimes and guesswork is correct. It's not legit. It's educated guesswork. -
Right, theory. And the theory is not supported by actual data, just by math and their own estimations. So again, I point out that what they have is a theory, and not proof. His article is unpublished and therefore not peer reviewed. It's educated guessing
-
Did you miss the part where I said I agree with the logic but just don't see where they're pulling the 5% from?
-
Probably done. Can't really see him playing indy ball. I don't think he's officially retired though
-
None of those links provide any evidence, just speculation. And don't get me wrong. I agree with the logic that more muscle could increase bat speed, but the 5% number is just an educated guess.
-
Well, both Travis being injury free and an Otani addition would indeed be monumental.
-
Source?
-
I guess I'm coming from the POV of next year being a transition year, not one where they think they'll be contending. Unless there are some pretty monumental moves that get this team significantly younger, I don't see 2018 going much differently than this year
-
Pretty much, they've just been horribly overworked.
-
Pretty much exactly what I was thinking. I just hope he sticks around as a starter, even if it's the 5. I'd rather have the in house option for league minimum than having to spend 5 millionish to fill that spot.
-
And there's Rowley at the stairs shaking hands with the guys as they come off the field. Methinks the Jays just found their next Reed Johnson-esque fan favorite
-
No kidding, should be 2-2 hut Ohlman just stabbed at every pitch and made them look terrible.
-
Shows where our team is when the last 3 posts all say the same thing lol
-
Holy luck. We'll take it!
-
Yeah, gotta get at least 1.
-
Morales in as a pinch hitter.... do eeeeet!
-
Cmon Pearce, you're the last hope until the 7th
-
s***, nice pitch
-
Feels like Smoak needs to get a run in here
-
Damn you for this. Now he's cursed
-
Uh oh, Polanco coming up lame.
-
That changeup slipped.
-
I saw the 3rd and 4th innings. Nothing to get excited about but he doesn't look out of place. Decent fade/sink on that 2 seam fastball, average breaking ball, average change. Decent control/command. Looks like a guy who will give up his share of hits but but won't walk the world and can get the occasional whiff. Actually looks like alot like the Pirates pitcher today just without a few ticks on the fastball.
-
How's Rowley looking so far?
-
Fair enough and Rowley is very unlikely to be any type of long term piece so I think we're on the same page here
