  1. Pats fans are spoiled. Period. Do you dispute this?
  2. That's complete f***ing ********, and you know it.
  3. On the bright side, WFAN will be fantastic to listen to tomorrow if the Jets lose.
  4. Bunch of pussies here in this GT, even for fans of a spoiled franchise.
  5. 200 innings, league average ERA (or better), improved infield defense.
  6. Wrong thread, homes.
  7. Look at his line drive rates and his BABIP last year, then get back to me.
  8. Jets are mind blowingly awful.
  9. Where in that article does it say anything about these contract amounts?
  10. Sturmage
  11. Hawks are sick
  12. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3699047 Not a fan of the last quote here. Ortiz doesn't exactly cover himself in glory.
  13. I don't think it's a knock on Palmer more than it is an advantage for Ryan.
  14. You want to know why strikeouts are viewed in a higher regard? They are a sure out for the pitcher, he does not have to rely on his defense. Palmer had to lean more on his defense than Ryan did. While there is something to be said about pitching to contact, it's clear Ryan did more for his own cause than Palmer for his. If he put up an additional 10% of the workload and still maintained very similar rate stats, a la CC last season and Ryan in 1973? Yes, I do give him credit for that.
  15. I agree, although wins are one of the worst possible stats you can use to judge a pitcher's worth. I don't think Ryan was "robbed" per se...as the statistics were close enough that you can make a convincing argument for both, I just think you can make a better argument with Ryan's 1973 season than you can do with Palmer's. In 1973, the pitcher that was more like Beckett last year won, so I'm not sure I see your point.
  16. [table]Pitcher|GS|IP|W|L|ERA|ERA+|H|K|BB|H/9|K/9|BB/9|K/BB|WHIP Palmer|37|296.3|22|9|2.40|156|225|158|113|6.83|4.79|3.43|1.39|1.141 Ryan|39|326|21|16|2.87|122|238|383|162|6.57|10.57|4.47|2.36|1.227[/table] If you look at the stats the writers seem to love, Palmer wins. If you look at rate stats, Ryan wins. I think that the extra thirty innings really pushes the envelope into Ryan's favor, a la CC Sabathia last season.
  17. It really isn't though. Rodgers hasn't been the problem.
  18. I guess the next question is was he out of the pocket...
