  1. I think it's obvious that Sabathia was BOTH lucky and effective. My opinion is that if he gave up 11hits in 6 innings and only gave up 2 ER, especially against the Rangers lineup, that he was extremely lucky. He might not have been statistically lucky (in giving up those hits), but he was statistically lucky when you look at his strand rate (runs scored vs. total number of runners). I think the confusion comes in that saying that Sabathia was effective implies that he was pitching better than he did. For example, if the Yankees didn't win the game, I don't think many people would be saying that he was pitching effective. I think that a better way to say it would be that Sabathia had an effective outing, which speaks more to the outing as a whole rather than the actual specifics of Sabathia's pitching, which is where RSR and Emmz are saying that it implies that Sabathia was better than he was. He's obviously a great pitcher, but he's lucky that 11 hits didn't turn into 11 runs with that Texas offense.
  2. Extremely f***** lucky.
  3. Perhaps but Ray Lewis isn't like most LB's, the way he plays he'd be lucky to be alive in 3 years. But that's why we all love him. He's old enough to be original gangster.
  4. He's the same age as Ray Lewis. Edit: Ok, Driver is a month and a half older than Ray Lewis
  5. Yankees228 is on the clock.
  6. JBay is back on the clock.
  7. You're up again Kilo.
  8. I'll have my pick shortly.
  9. Kilo is now on the clock.
  10. JBay is now on the clock.
  11. Although in this case, we can skip Boston22407 and Yankees228 can make his pick.
  12. Yeah, Divinity and I had been trying to work out a trade briefly but we were strictly following the no-trading rules. Anyway, as in the case of the other draft, I believe that it is also boston22407's turn.
  13. Youker is now on the clock.
  14. Anyway, I'm probably going to be out for the next 2 days, I'll leave sometime tomorrow morning and I'd either be back Friday or Saturday. I doubt that it'll get to my pick in the NBA draft, but it might get to my picks here. I'll see where we get to by tomorrow morning before I give someone my picks.
  15. On second thought, he wasn't any good at doing that either.
  16. I wonder if Girardi is going to spend next season doing Taco Bell commercials.
  17. Kilo/MSU are on the clock.
  18. Yankshater is now on the clock.
  19. Coco can make his pick now.
  20. Isn't RF short enough at Fenway as it is?
  21. Flynnatic will have until 4 pm to make his selection.
