wtf

 

Its Manny pinch-hitting, well this is something unexpected

[example1]

f***ing Man-Ram. We LOVE ya Manny. Don't leave us.

[a700hitter]

Pedroia with 4 errors in 25 games. Loretta with 4 errors in 139 games. Is this comparable?

[a700hitter]

Manny walks.

[Anuj09]

2 from short stop right ? his unnatural position

No, it isn't. It would be important to note that whatever differential that works out to over the year, Pedroia will probably get to twice that amount more balls taking hits away, so with him in the field you'll net more total outs. This is the tradeoff that justifies using youth in the field.

[redsoxrules]

The 11 for 32 incorporates the 1 for 10 -- nice job killing your argument' date=' whatever it was.[/quote']

 

yeah ok the guys OBP is around 250 including that 11 for 32 thats pretty said

Loretta has played first too.

[Anuj09]

true but Lorretta is a vetern andh as probably played a good amount of games at First. anyone know how many ?

[a700hitter]

Youk flirting with falling below the .280 mark. With his lack of power, he's nothing special at the 1B position unless he can hit .300.

1997, Loretta's 1st full season in majors, he had committed 15 errors.

 

Loretta- veteran

Pedroia- rookie

He went 4 for his first 40, with several LDs right at people. Those are starting to find holes and he's hitting around .300/.400/.500 in his last 40 ABs. Do you allow no adjustment period to a new level? The shortsightedness you display is astonishing.

whats sad is fans counting out a kid who just started in the majors

agree ,and i remember saying as well at the start of the season he would finish the year around 270 , 280 at best for average

You are looking at the wrong rate stat. OBP tells more because it gives you the players out rate. His .280/.380 line is better than you give it credit for. That said, I'd love for the guy to spend the entire offseason in the gym so he can get his HR total up over 25.

exactly who the f*** are we ? the Marlins ?

I wish. They are closer to the postseason than we are and their rotation looks much better going into next year.

hitting around 300/400/500 in his last 40 ABs? id check my stats if i were you

[Anuj09]

ok bad example my bad

[ORS]

hitting around 300/400/500 in his last 40 ABs? id check my stats if i were you

Last 34 - the ones after the first 40. Excuse my error in rounding to 40.

 

11 hits, 4 BB, 1 HBP, 19 TB

 

.326/.410/.559

 

EDIT: There was a HBP on 9/14 against Baltimore that didn't show up in the game logs. OBP has been corrected. And, that makes the TPA, the more important stat, 39 vs. 41 before that.

6 makes a big difference

[riverside sluggers]

With Twins currently leading Baltimore 6-5, the Sox are 3 outs away from mathematical elimination

Whatever makes you feel better. You had no clue about those numbers and were talking straight out of your ass.

Sorry, I might have been born at night, but I wasn't born last night. It was clear that he broke out of his slump after the first 41 plate appearances. I made that clear when I mentioned his performance since then. My only error was estimating the amount of ABs he's had since then - the total plate appearances were right on. For you to stubbornly hang on to 6 crossover ABs in order to act as though you have a clue about what you are talking about is completely comical.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Carlos Zambrano has hit yet another home run.

Hey, you see the humor too. That's step in the right direction, so there's hope for you yet.

[Cocos Disciples]

Eliminated.

SURPRISE !!
