    Lol. You mean if he were to play in Boston, rather than Petco Park, he wouldn't have a higher OBP, because pitchers wouldn't pitch around him MORE? He played in the NL West, the division that's full of pitcher's parks, so basically, he plays around 120 of his games in pitchers parks. Gee, I wonder if his OBP, SLG, collectively OPS, would go up? Maybe?

    Think about that, nice and slow. Lol.

    He's one of the hottest guys ever pretty much, regardless of his profession.

    I think it's even less likely that he goes all Yankees this offseason and forks over a bunch of money for Matt Holliday... I just don't see that as likely. I think he trades prospects along with Buchholz to the Padres for A-Gon.

    Tom Brady? You kidding? Sexy, sexy.

    Well he IS black. Well, dark-skinned.

    I'd hit it :thumbsup:

    As is Safeco. Adrian Beltre can testify to that.

    I bet Pujols could easily better Ryan Howard's RBI numbers with that lineup. And I mean easily.

    Plus the games at New Yankee Stadium, too.

    Absolutely nice find by Ital and Dipre for digging it up. So yeah, he'd add quite a few more HR's at Fenway most likely... Pretty awesome.
  15. Emmz
    Not really. Chase steals a few, but more often than not, it's because of guys like Chase Utley that Howard gets so many RBI.
  16. Emmz
    Better yet, switch their teams around. I guarantee, Howard's RBI's and runs scored go way down, while Pujols' go way up.
  17. Emmz
    I believe Petco Park has been responsible in part for that, though. I think a move to Fenway would provide a huge boost to those numbers. Petco Park is the least hitter-friendly park in the bigs, probably.

    What I have in bold is what I want to drive home the most. Pujols was better at producing in a lineup that's, as you said, VASTLY inferior.
  19. Emmz
    High OBP=more runs for the team. With Pujols, he has just as much power as Howard, contrary to what you've been saying, and gets on base to give his team a chance to drive in more runs. It's pretty simple, actually. Hmm? Sexist jokes? Nice. You're a class act. I'm done with this.

    RBI is the least effective way of judging someone's ability to produce runs... It's a testament to the hitters in front of the said hitter.
  23. Emmz
    Fixed. The RBI is not the measure of a productive player. It's the measure of someone who has guys before him who get on base, and then he hits the jack, or drives in the run. Let's face it, if Pujols had the guys that Howard had, he'd have drove in many more runs, because he's the best there is at not getting out. Not to mention, he has just as much power as Howard does. Howard's highest OPS is 1.084, a stat that Pujols has bettered 4 times in his career. Howard's had ONE season with an OPS above 1.000, Pujols has only gone under that, technically, twice. And one of those seasons (2007) it was .997, and the other was in his rookie season. Not to mention, he plays in Phillie, a very hitter-friendly park indeed.
  24. Emmz
    Not to mention, his stats against LHP aren't exactly TERRIBLE, per se. They're just much lower than what he hits against RHP. I don't think it's much to be worried about, personally, as I don't feel that it should stop us from sending Buchholz and prospects to SD for his services. He'll be the cleanup hitter that we need.
  25. Emmz
    Did you really just say Howard is better than Pujols? Wait, what? I hope that's not what you said, because Pujols has had a 1.000+ OPS every year but his first year (I consider .997 to be 1.000, tbh). Also, using RBI and HR as a measure of ability probably isn't the best way, OPS, OBP, etc, etc are much better stats for this.
