Expect Lester to bring the goods tomorrow and the Red Sox to win 5-3 with all of the RBI's coming off the mighty bats of Mike "Thor" Napoli and David "This is our f***ing city" Ortiz. WIN!

    Which is exactly why you should go back to not posting about the Knicks.
  5. User Name
    Oh. So now you show your support for the Knicks.

    Well this was a game i thought we had a good chance of losing because Aceves was bound to implode, but i didn't think it'd be this bad. Jesus.

    That makes zero sense. OPS is good for comparing any hitter to any hitter. And average is mainly a component of OBP, and while you need to hit the ball to drive runners in, if they don't get on base, you can't drive anyone in unless you SLUG a home run.

    Also, Morales and Breslow. They only have one left-handed option right now, and that option has a stupid beard and can't throw strikes.

    Holy crap Tazawa pitched yesterday too. Can you shut up with the bitching about the relievers. OMG enjoy the win.

    What.the.f***.Bailey?

    Right....the problem isn't that we've got the closer and two key lefties in the pen out of commission, it's the fact that we traded Melancon, who you s*** on all year last year.

    This board is like Whose Line Is It Anyway? Everything is made up and the facts don't matter.

    But unlike wOBA and wRC+, OPS and OPS+ are a lot more simple to understand and interpret for the casual fan. I bet you can't give me a layman's term explanation for either of those stats that i could explain to, say, my litle brother, who can certainly understand OPS and OPS+. Also, in reality, when valuating OPS, because SLG is always, by definition, higher than OBP, the real value of a point in OBP is about 1.2 SLG% points. Mathematically speaking.

    Miss most of the game tending to some personal matters. Get home, check it out, Napoli's raking with 5 RBI. I ain't even surprised.
  17. User Name
    Wait, what? Per all accounts, including Bard himself, he was the one who wanted the move to the rotation. Please don't make stuff up.

    Yes, but if it has been or will be it would lessen the lux tax for this year and next (if it has been) or next year (if it will be)

    Lackey won't be gone next year of even after next year. He's signed through '14 and they have an option on him for league minmum salary since he was operated on for a pre-existing elbow condition, as per a clause in his contract.

    Average is nearly worthless. OBP and SLG% (as noted by how good OPS is at determining offensive value) are the most important indicators of offensive performance. Nava can be above average in both, considering that although he won't hit many homers, he can hit his fair share of doubles. But he needs to be used in a role he can excel in, and they need to avoid overexposing him.

    Can i borrow your crystal ball? There are some lottery numbers i need to check out.
  22. User Name
    Yet he's already injured, which was the reason they got tired of him in the first place.
  23. User Name
    Why? The starting pitching and BP are still strong. The offense is slumping a bit but that's the least of this team's worries. They will hit.
  24. User Name
    The Royals are going to get a walk-off win as the visiting team? I'm pretty sure the rules don't allow that.
