Please justify the point in bold. I don't see why you would arbitrarily drop such a large portion of the data. It's interesting that you state an interest in seeing the effect of the steroid era without including any years from the tail end of that era in your data chain. Of course, if you did, that's where you see the recent trend. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that you've come rushing in to defend Jacko so frequently lately, and you came in half-cocked again. Maybe it's something else, either way, it's wrong. Again, no investigation of your own, and a solid lapping up of the ideas of others. If you had looked into this, you would have seen Palodios' errors, but you weren't looking for a correct answer, only self-serving affirmation. Newton once said he was able to see so far (in the advancement of science) by standing on the shoulders of giants (the scientists that preceded him). I guess you are content to stand on the shoulders of midgets (Sterling and Palodios).

Find a Tribe forum for your pom pom waving. If you have to do it here, you are no different than Jacko.

Moving target. Before it was a good amount of league average innings, now it's just a 4.50 ERA. The 2010 AL ERA was 4.14, and a good amount of innings for a SP should, at a minimum, be 150. This is what I disagreed to.

This Championship game is dreadful. Awful basketball from both sides.
-
We'll see. If you are expecting a lot of league average innings from him, I think you are in for some disappointment.

I figured this would happen. This doesn't change the fact that they both experienced the same issue getting deep into games.

Yeah, he doesn't look much different than he has since then, which is not a pitcher I'd call "dominant".
-
On the YES gun. Pitch f/x has him at 94, maxing out at 95 tonight, and on Thursday he didn't break 92. That's his FB. Untouchable, dominant? That's a bit much, but it's also very expected.
-
Soriano looks good, and Rivera is a robot, but I'm not sold on Chamberlain. He's lost something on the FB, and it's looking like conditioning is going to be an issue. Looks good now, but we're only 4 games into a very long season.
-
No, the strikezone was the strikezone against Valencia. If you were enouraged by the way Nova looked in this game, then your expectations are bit low. Good result, yes. Looked good, meh.
-
And the Rivera strikezone makes and appearance.

Nice turn there.

First time I've seen Chamberlain this year. Boy's getting husky. You could tell he always had that potential, and he's starting to live up to it.
-
Without a doubt. He had it all. Heat, movement, location. Then, on top of that, he could change arm angle without missing a stride. His change-up was insane, and then he could bust it in on you at 97. Nobody I've ever seen comes close to him at the turn of the century.

Since I can remember. Dad modelled my batting stance after Fred Lynn, his favorite player. However, I caught the fever when I was 12 in 1986.
