    lol! You are a man that doesn't like regrets.
  2. a700hitter
    So, do you think they were "half-assing it"?

    If a mere change of regime ignited the team and sparked the late season drive to a third place finish, that speaks volumes as to the leadership vacuum that existed prior to the change. It may also suggest that Lovullo should be the manager next season.

    you can thank the Red Sox for s***ing up baseball fields for the first 4 1/2 months of the season. If not for the ridiculously embarrassing circus act put on by the Red Sox, your team would be watching the playoffs from their couches. They are not that good. That being said, if they get by the Wild Card game, the Championship is up for grabs.

    CC still can win a big game. I am going to be nervous until the skanks are eliminated. I don't buy into th notion that they will go quietly in the playoffs because they were limping at the end of the regular season. There are too many examples of teams that stumbled to the finish and went all the way. I think the Skanks might have lucked out by Evoldi coming up lame as the Skanks will turn to Warren. I think he is much better than Evoldi. I am hoping that they face the Astros, because Keuchal has completely shut them down this season.

    If we only make one acquisition, I would exercise Buch's option and keep him in the rotatio for his usual half season. This will tax some of the depth. I am curious to see how Workman bounces back. I think he will be a nice bullpen arm and depth option.

    i would like to see Hill stick around too, but I think he will want a major league contract, and I don't think we have a spot for him. At age 35, time is running out on Hill and he will want to make some money.

    Win! Send the Yankees into a panic.

    Beats Boston weather.

    There is no character assassination of Hanley that I am seeing. What I am seeing based on team reports is a guy who is self-inflicting wounds.
  12. a700hitter
    And the Hanley's are easy to identify.

    DD recently said that he didn't need to look at any metrics to know that Jose Iglesias is a very good fielder. I think that I will stick with my own test rather than a stat compiled on plotting of data points by individual's. I trust my eyes more than I trust theirs.
  14. a700hitter
    LOL!! I usually try to have a point. You are one of the people that tries to understand my point (whether you agree with it or not). Much appreciated.
  15. a700hitter
    It is interesting stuff, and I do like to look at the stuff for teams and players that I don't watch very often.
  16. a700hitter
    It should be standardized as should all data collection that is used to compile official stats. The possibility of team meddling should be eliminated otherwise the data doesn't have integrity.
  17. a700hitter
    I am glad that you like them. They are just not very good, and I am not one to cherry pick a month or two of performance and get excited about it. Yes, I am encouraged by ER and think he should be fine. Miley is what he is which is a number 4 starter. Taken as a whole the current group would be the staff of another sub .500 team next season, because they are just not very good.
  18. a700hitter
    hehe me too! Lol!
  19. a700hitter
    Tomorrow night CC is going with a spent bullpen backing him up. They could be in the midst of a full collapse. If they get swept tomorrow, real panic could set in.
  20. a700hitter
    Bailey is still a pig. Lol!
  21. a700hitter
    Blame whatever you like, but I think it is the pitching that DD will be fixing in the long off season-- that and looking for a place to dump Hanley. Edit: That's it for you! I am officially de- friending you.;-)
  22. a700hitter
    The problem with this team has always been the pitching. With our pitching, these games had no chance of mattering.
  23. a700hitter
    Good point, but it also makes me wonder what data or stats they were looking at to think that he could be successful on the heels of his horrible 2014 performance.
  24. a700hitter
    But we don't know to what extent unintentional human error plays a role.
  25. a700hitter
    He is 39. He is not the same player from 2005, 2006, but a guy who hits 30 HRs and 100 RBi every year isn't the reason why you have a bad team. Don't be offended if I disagree with you if you are making that point.
