  1. But wait, isn't he supposed to be "honest"? The way i see it, that is blatant lying.
  2. Same thing as Last year. Lester's Mr. May apparently.
  3. http://www.insidethebook.com/ee/index.php/site/comments/everything_you_ever_wanted_to_know_about_gameday/ Post #25. There's also a lot of information about Gameday's accuracy in tracking release points and F/X pitch tracking. It's an interesting read.
  4. April 18th. Yup, this has a lot to do with the debate. When proven wrong, resort to being an annoying douche. Nah. I didn't look it up. However, I'd be willing to bet I'm right. I posted both instances of the AB's way back in my initial reply. Did you forget to look at them, or didn't you actually read the post?
  5. It shouldn't, sheep. Refusing to attack the point head on is an immature tactic. Which is more accurate, Broadcaster's eyes or the Gameday system? Pretty simple answer IMO. Why would i "admit i'm an idiot"? You're not twelve, don't act like it. I've said multiple times that the jury's out on Martinez, but we simply don't have enough of a sample size to come up with a solid conclusion. There's a chance you could be right, even if it is just conjecture, so you would like to take that miniature percentage and turn it into a possibility of "victory". Interesting approach. Your opinion on Martinez is nothing but baseless conjecture, you know this, so why not put it to rest? 4. Holliday still can't hit the inside fastball. Look it up. Why don't you look it up? As far as i'm concerned, i was right, you were wrong. It's up to you to prove otherwise.
  6. Are you a "sheep" of the baseball analysts? Seriously, take the time to come up with your own opinion. As for the, "nothing beats Dipre with a Gameday account" unfortunately, a system that allows me to accurately differentiate a ball from a strike trumps you and your analysts every time. Your "framing pitches" argument is old. Your initial argument is based off a minimal sample size and you're trying to use a single ballgame with incorrect evidence to prove a "point" that doesn't exist in the first place. Interesting approach. Oh, and stop hurting over the Holliday argument. HE CAN'T HIT THE INSIDE FASTBALLLL!111!!111
  7. Lowell wouldn't have caught that either.
  8. The Red Sox don't allow pitchers to use slide steps, and have a "Focus on the hitter, not the runner" policy. I read that a couple times during the off-season, i'll see if i can find it.
  9. Can't we all just get along? Oh, and love the underhand shot by diony. Well done sir.
  10. No hate for Beltre, because he can actually catch the damn baseball.
  11. ^ Well done, sir. I nearly pissed my pants laughing at that.
  12. Baseless conjecture, fabricated nonsense, making things personal. Seriously Gom, give it a rest. No matter what Mitch Williams "said", it's obvious that your assesment is incorrect. Now go back to calling me a liar because i confused PA with AB during an argument in which i literally made you cry in front of your computer.
  13. I lie? Still bitter 'cause i kicked your ass in the Holliday argument, and are still using the PA/AB mistake as your binky. . And no, Mitch Williams should use Gameday or a similar tool so he can know where the pitches actually fall.
  14. This PWNdroia guy's a f***ing tool.
  15. I want to take this thread out to dinner and make love to it afterwards.
  16. Uh-oh. My bad. Let me fix.
  17. So many things wrong with this post. On TV? Seriously? First off, in the AB that Johnsonn walked, was his first one of the game. In that AB, Gameday easily shows that Wilson threw four clear balls, meaning you're either making this up to prove a point, or you have zero idea of what you're talking about. http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/1917/njab.th.png The only "borderline" pitch was pitch number five, and even that one was suspect. "Believe your eyes, and watch the games" huh? In the Granderson AB, pitch three to Granderson was a ball, and as far as i'm concerned, there's no way for catchers to magically turn balls into strikes. For a catcher to be able to "frame" a borderline pitch, the pitch has to have, you know, a chance to be called a strike. http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/4963/cgab.th.png Unless you can prove me that your eyes are more accurate than MLB's pitch tracking system (Hint: You can't) your argument holds zero water. Besides that, what exactly does this brilliant assesment have to do with Martinez' ability to call a ballgame or frame pitches? Martinez caught some brilliant pitching staffs in Cleveland, and the only complain about him was his weak arm. All of your argument is baseless conjecture, specially based on the fact that it's the middle of April. What people here refuse to believe is your ability to concoct an accurate assesment of a catcher's defensive, "framing", and game-calling ability through the television or going to a couple games a year to Yankee Stadium. As proved above, you are usually wrong, and it gives us further reason to not believe your subjective opinion. Besides, you've been talking like you "called" that Martinez was going to be a defensive liability, and it's the middle of April, you have no way of backing up said opinion, since you just admitted here you haven't "watched" Martinez much, that pretty much says you're just talking for the sake of talking. "Watch the gamezzzzzz", then assess Martinez. How can you accurately asses this team's offense in April? Now you didn't "call" on Martinez sucking behind the plate, you're saying he "may or may not suck" behind the plate. I thought it was a fearless prediction, so why the fearful backpedal? Please stop using baseless conjecture as a means to create these types of "opinions" and then making me waste my time proving you wrong.....over......and over......and over.
  18. You don't know if it was a cracked rib, because it hasn't been diagnosed as such.
  19. Well here i watched it on a Network called CDN (before i had MLB.TV) IIRC, they got some sort of away feed for that game, but i'm 100% certain the announcers in the background were not the same as the ones in ESPNLA.
