  1. Admittedly I didn't hear what Zaun has to say, but there is lots left to be desired by the Jays offense. They are not a consistent threat at the plate inning after inning. More than half the lineup is practically useless on any given day. They score in bunches, but once they've scored big in one inning, they go silent for the rest of the game. Sustained pressure on the opposing pitcher is virtually non existent.
  2. f*** sakes... This many picks I should have one by now... This is embarrassing
  3. As much as people want robot umps... I think it would be a huge benefit to the pitchers. How many strikes aren't called at the bottom and top of the zone on breaking balls that just barely clip the edge of the zone.... I think hitters would be even more f***ed than they are now
  4. Never seen so many guys gunned at home from bad calls by the 3b coach. When the ball is already halfway to the cutoff man and the base runner is just getting to third.... Don't send him!
  5. I dunno, putting more crappy starters in between your good ones doesn't sound like a good plan to me.
  6. I'll take Francisco. Just for kicks, I'll say it goes upper tank RF.
  7. Quoting ERA ???? BAN! 4th in the division in xFIP, just to throw that out there.
  8. I've yet to reach a 1 game f***ing streak....
  9. I got in late tonight so all the really good picks are gone, gonna pass on night and try to pick up tomorrow
  10. Still haven't made it past 6.. Braun busted me last night
  11. Happ is certainly scrappy, white and devoid of talent, so he'd fit right in Towers' ideal player mould.
  12. Gimme Edwin, I think he'll go on a bit of a streak now
  13. Me too, I pick the guys on the day before they hit one....
  14. Not exactly a banner day for him ...
  15. Consider the source of the article. Boswell is a noted "pull s*** out of ass to grab headlines" guy. Harper's rep is the opposite, not knowing when to slow down... Hence slamming into walls and getting himself hurt just to get a fly ball. Maybe he didn't run one out, that's definitely not his MO.
  16. I dunno, I used to the type of fan who just blindly cheered for every player because, like bounceyballs said, they were my team and that's what you do. But after being exposed to Sabr and understanding what it's about and how much deeper it goes into a players value and contributions to the team's success, it's hard to be excited about a player like Goins. A purely one-dimensional defense only player is valuable even with league average offensive contributions, but Goins is nowhere near league average and really hasn't shown anything to make me believe there a whole lot more there in his bat. He's a guy that should be coming in late and close ball games for defense upgrades, or just to give a guy the occasional day off and that's about it.
  17. Yeah I was looking there but couldn't find the right area I guess. Thanks
  18. What site are you looking at fatcow?
  19. I don't have 2013 numbers right in front of me here but rally it doesn't fluctuate that much from year to year. So if babip on grounders, including bunts is .230, that means 77% of grounders, all across baseball are converted to outs.
  20. If you mean the average babip on ground balls excluding bunts it was .226 in 2012. Including bunts .230 Right now Gojns babip on grounders is .174 in 23 AB. With 1 more single in his current 23 AB he'd be at .217. If you really want to go strictly by the numbers, he's been 1 hit "unlucky" on ground balls.
  21. Carrasco has been terrible every start this year, now suddenly remembers how to throw strikes... Well not terrible, but shaky
