That was at Coco, the smiley. I was being snide towards ibot.

^^^ It's all a conspiracy. Buch is actually in Fiji right now, sipping alcoholic drinks and eating fried chicken in paradise (sounds like a Jimmy Buffet song, doesn't it?) with Beckett and Lackey.

I like the Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins and Vikings. You're fine. -
So where's that f***ing thread about Ortiz slumping for a few games at? Yeah.

Maybe he'll use HGH to get back sooner.

Well he has the advantage of running on the Windows OS as opposed to the iOS.

OH WHAT A CALCULATION BY C839X!!

No, you're judging a book by it's content, but you're missing the point with ERA. You still gave up those runs, you're not an effective pitcher when you're giving up 4 runs all the time, regardless of how weak the hits you give up are. RBI isn't anything like using ERA, because you just need to be the 3/4 hitter in a good lineup and you'll clean up, especially if you're a power hitter. I personally think sabermetrics are the best thing out there, but think about it. Does your FIP or BABIP matter if you finish the season with a 4.5 ERA? Is that what you're going to use at the end of the year if he's struggled all year? I think those are better used as an indicator that he's going to turn it around, rather than he's pitched well this year. In the end, scorecards don't go.by sabermetrics, and they shouldn't.

Tough break. I wish him a speedy recovery. (LOL)

ERA is a perfectly useful statistic. Unfortunately, BABIP doesn't account for anything, if he's still giving up runs, he's still accountable. If you could quantify for me that BABIP and FIP are the only stats you need to be successful, I'll agree with you. Sabermetrics, as much as I love them, are not the be-all-end-all. With that said, going strictly on ERA is completely ridiculous, and Lester has been a lot better than his ERA, and it has to have been very frustrating to pitch well and still end up giving up weak ass hits, etc. and end up giving up 4-5 runs when it should have been 2.

No, you need to have money to be a sugar mama dude. Maybe there's a retired pornstar with needs? LOL JK.

You should just hook up with a sugar mama.

He's got an apparently awesome-paying job, and has a 20-ish year old girlfriend. He's just got his priorities straight.
-
He's not even the old man of this site. There's guys here that he probably used to call "pops" back in the 40s.

Think it sailed over most people's heads, but yes, people need to pick their spots with images better.

I've been in supportive mode all year, telling people how it's not over. It's now looking up, AND WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOT CC OR ELLS BACK. On top of this, WMB is every day now, and Gonzo, once he figures it out, this is not a team to f*** with. Even then, pitching is looking like it's turning around as well. .700 ball for a couple of months sounds good to me.
-
Very, very encouraging game.
-
Crawford and Ellsbury will be back very soon, too. I still am not backing off of my pre-season prediction of 95 wins or more.
-
It looks like Dice was quite effective? I just woke up from a nap.

Awww yeeee

Tyrant.
