  1. If you assume (probably shouldnt) that'd Hutch's performance is directly related to the bad luck associated with the high BABIP. He goes from a not so good #5 starter to at best a 3/4 starter.
  2. Agreed, he should be better than what he has been but those BABIP are still high. I just don't see Hutch really succeeding until he gets the slider back ( which made last season's numbers better) and a useful changeup
  3. How he pitches...the quality of his pitches....the location he has to pitch to be effective...and the amount of pitches he has to actually use Sanchez has a great fastball with velocity and movement which results in a lower BABIP Buehrle has great command and can pitch with a variety of pitches. Velocities, and stays at the bottom of the zone Dickey has the knuckle ball which overall is hard to hit Estrada has an amazing changeup that he can throw whenever to get weak contact and has to be accounted for Hutch is a one pitch pitcher until he gets the slider back. His fastball is flat and he pitches up in the zone at 91-94 mph without any workable changeup to keep hitters off balance. Again...just my opinion.
  4. I see what you are saying. I just don't like how this stat is used. You have to look deeper into why Hutch has a higher BABIP. Of the pitchers you listed, I would expect Hutch to have the highest 9 times out of 10. So how much better can his BABIP get is the question. The way he has pitched this year I would not expect it to change a whole lot.
  5. At least you are honest
  6. Yes I realize....someone asked me if I am ready to trade Sanchez for Shark
  7. According to Gibby not a thing wrong with them. Just wanted to give them a day off.
  8. No, it's because I have recognized that Sanchez is a better asset and gives this team a better chance to win. Hutch in my opinion will not get much better than we see now. He relies too much on an inconsistent fastball with inconsistent command and through the 3 ish years he has been in the majors has not made any progress in developing a 3rd pitch. Between the two Sanchez has more upside now and in the future in my opionion, so I would trade Hutch for Shark
  9. They won't sit 2 of the best players in your lineup vs the worst record in the AL
  10. Don't know what this is, but that would have AA fired tonight
  11. Starting Sunday everyone gets 4 days off that missed today's game
  12. No reason for Navarro and Goins to hit in the 8th, we were not winning or tied we needed offense
  13. Agreed, plus Edwin or Reyes could have pinch hit in late innings especially in only a 2 run game
  14. Too bad Gibby did not do the same
  15. No...I'd trade Hutch in a second for Shark
  16. We couldn't win against Danks and KC gets to hit against our pitching
  17. If the white sox suck...what does that make us.......having a hard time figuring this out.
  18. It's all cool 2-8 over our last 10 going to play KC...wait who the heck gave players a day off against the white sox
  19. Reyes could have close to 20 if he played the whole year
  20. Id love that...but do u really think they will fire him before the deadline
  21. We got this....4 run 9th coming up Come on Blue Jays!!!!!
  22. I'll take just Puig at this point. Bautista is regressing towards his age and next year it will be noticeable
