  1. Um...they have? there are lot of advanced stats that help determine when a pitchers been lucky or unlucky.
  2. Thank the Christ Navarro didn't catch him last night or Zaun and the causals would not only be jumping to the conclusion that the 6 man rotation was to blame - but also that Martin was to blame.
  3. http://www.fangraphs.com/pitchfxo.aspx?playerid=1118&position=P&pitch=FA Estrada hasn't broken 90 MPH since going on the DL. His velocity is actually down since returning from the DL (and pitching in a 6 man rotation) and he was throwing his fastball harder earlier in the season when he was having a lot more success. You and Zaun should keep the nonsense to yourself.
  4. Probably discussed already but why is Travis hitting behind Pillar and Smock? Gibby going full derp?
  5. Ironic that we were talking about Vin Sully today...I didn't know Vin was calling the 93 WSP game on CBS radio when Carter hit the home run
  6. So Those was DFA'd. Who's catching Dickey or have they said? DFA Dickey and call up Barnes!
  7. meh - I was a big Carter fan before he hit that HR. HR's and RBI's were the shiiiznet when I was 10 years old.
  8. Olerud is....it's right in your handle man. WAMCO
  9. That's a good point. Then you auction them off afterwards (would work after the Canada day game probably...no idea why they even had the reds on the other day). They seem to go out an buy a lot of pink stuff for breast cancer month.
  10. You mean the Jays can't afford 25 red undershirts to match the red jerseys they wear a couple times a year? I find that difficult to believe sir.
  11. It's higher than Willie Mays, Frank Robinson, Hank Aaron, Manny, DiMaggio & Pujols too. 15th all time.
  12. ^This. I think this fact gets ignored a lot...but it's extremely true.
  13. Votto has the 15th highest career wRC+ of all-time. He's at another level offensively than Martin/Tulo. You point stands - but the chances that Votto falls off a cliff offensively is significantly lower than it is for Tulo/Martin.
  14. It's between Happ and Stro for me. Both have been phenomenal as of late.
  15. You don't think Martin would catch the WC game? WTF.
  16. I don't get why they wore blue under the red jersey's. Brutal look.
  17. You could certainly look at him in the leadoff spot vs. LHP when he's on a heater...
  18. That basically describes what Dickey is man...Chavez has been a 3.85-3.90 FIP + xFIP starter the past 2 years.
  19. Don't forget the context. The only starters on the team when they traded for Chavez were Stroman, Dickey & Hutch. They had Sanchez - but nobody knew what he'd be able to give the team as a starter (and most expected him to struggle mightily). Estrada and Happ had not been signed yet (nor had Floyd). This team needed starting pitching depth BADLY. Could they have waited and seen whether they were going to get Happ/Estrada/Floyd? Maybe. Maybe not. Hard to know, but it's not hard to see a scenario where this team needed Chavez in the rotation a lot this year (injuries, Sanchez struggles, Happ signs elsewhere, etc.). It never materialized, but that doesn't mean they were wrong for adding the SPing depth. In all likelihood, we probably would have been a better team this year with Chavez in the rotation and Dickey/Thole sitting in Margaritaville.
  20. The bitching came from Zaun guys. Blair just tuned into the pregame (or post game - I forget) when Zaun went on his rant (I noted it on here because it sent the fans into a tither) and wrote and article about it because he's a tool.
  21. Don't forget the pitchers too...
  22. Nothing's changed. Stroman's fine. Dickey and Liriano are extremely unreliable. Liriano should be our LOOGY for the playoffs. Dickey can grab some popcorn.
  23. Time to call Randy Choate?
  24. Does the roof effect prices that much?
  25. I always hear the turds on TV talk about Estrada's phenomenal command. He walking 3.21 guys per 9...do people on here really think he has great command? That's 25 worst in MLB (from qualified starters).
