    Really, ire for Youk?

    That's Youk's career K% graph.

    Who can spin the Varitek AB better than me?
  4. ORS
    Good point. You know what that means, too many hitters worthy enough of hitting in the first 5 spots. Might as well start thinking about trading him. Youk for Hardy + 'tardy + G level 'spect?

    He sucked for a bit, so pitchers adjusted. Why walk a guy when he's not a threat to hurt you big with one swing? He's only really back when he can crush it regularly when pitchers are treating him like "Big Papi".

    I agree with that. I think Huff's mockery sent a message that sunk in more than spouting off to the media would have done.

    Then you haven't really been paying attention to his posts. I'm confident that he'd say Papelbon would be deserving of whatever comments his behavior draws.

    Since the Yankees are one of the better teams in the league, I'd say it's more like a 20 game win streak against random teams. Assuming they are one of the top teams in the league, which they are, they'll probably finish with a W% somewhere around 60%. At that W% you need to play 20 games, going 20-0 to their expected 12-8 to net 8 games in the standings.

    I like MLBN, and Costas doesn't call a bad game, but he's pretty insufferable when he calls Yankee games because he's such a shameless fan of them. Then, on top of that, they have Kaat in the booth with him. I'd expect this team on YES, not a supposedly impartial network.

    Well, you really aren't reading that 100% correctly. Look at the location of the vertical lines. They are at -1.0 and +1.0 feet from center, meaning the plate (as typically called by umpires) is 24" wide. This is what they do at brooksbaseball. The strikezone shown is the "usual" strikezone, not the regulation one. The regulation width of the plate is 17", and I'd put the black at no more than 1.5" wide, so anything beyond 10" from center, which is 0.83', is a ball per the rulebook. If you look at the total game calling link, called Normalized Strikezone, you see the correct location of the regulation zone. Link

    Haha, f***stick.

    Rut roh.

    Swisheroni! He might be good in the clubhouse with his douche routine, but he's f***ing idiot on the field.

    Bay needs do make an adjustment or he's going to see a steady diet of junk. He still looks awful against breaking pitches, which is going to speed up the FB like what just happened.

    Rafael Soriano, RP
  19. ORS
    Never. My resolve to use that word is pretty solid.
  20. ORS
    I'm kind of glad it got broken up, even if the hit wasn't, oh what's a good way to put it, solid. He's at 70 pitches through 4. I don't want him throwing 150 chasing something meaningless, and they weren't going to pull him while it was still going.
  21. ORS
    I could have sworn Jacko said he'd be following the draft while watching this game. Solid job of selective participation.
  22. ORS
    Mike Lowell should not be stealing. He's too solid, statuesque in fact.
  23. ORS
    You don't draft for need in the MLB draft. With the failure rate of draft picks, you take the best player available. This isn't the NFL where you only get 7 picks and the guys will be playing next year. EDIT: This was a quote from the prevoius page, a SOLID page at that, and it came before I saw the Solid Decree.

    The Melkman delivers*. *The delivery period is the month of April, that's it, sorry folks.
  25. ORS
    If this game was a chick, I'd f*** it....SOLIDLY.
