    Last night was an epic meltdown though. He's not the same guy any more.

    Chavis OPS 790 Moreland OPS 852 Mitch has actually been pretty good too, when we can get him onto the field LOL
  3. Bellhorn04
    I think Beni is a very good player. It's actually kind of a weird misconception that he's been having a long slump or a lousy season. OPS by month: April 754 May 792 June 827 July 826

    Here's a crazy split: Yankee staff ERA in home games 3.35 Yankee staff ERA in road games 5.56
  5. Bellhorn04
    Disagree. He walks too many, but compensates by giving up very few hits. WHIP - 1.028 Batting line against - 109/262/160 (422 OPS)
  6. Bellhorn04
    They rushed him back and he's ramping up in real games. Cora doing a good job getting him into games. Hopefully he'll get sharp and be a big help the rest of the way.

    5 merit points each for you three.
  8. Bellhorn04
    5 demerit points each for you two.

    It's absolutely crazy how down some people have gotten on Beni this year.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Looks like he is.
  11. Bellhorn04
    jung, for most of the games in April and May Mookie was batting second, with X-Bo or JDM behind him, and Beni leading off. So the Beni factor is out the window anyway.
  12. Bellhorn04
    You're actually making things too complicated. It's not that hard to compare offensive numbers in the Year of the Missile with numbers of other years and come up with a reasonable discounting factor, if your intent is to keep it simple.
  13. Bellhorn04
    And this was actually being said in game threads. "Mookie is looking at pitches right down the middle and then swinging at crap!"

    Average MLB OPS is .755 this year. It was .728 last year. It's an increase of 3.7%. Very significant, but it doesn't mean everything is out the window. It was .750 in 2017, in fact.
  15. Bellhorn04
    As I posted earlier, Beni had an .809 OPS in the #2 spot last year and an .809 OPS in the #2 spot this year.
  16. Bellhorn04
    OPS+ does account for the rocket ship as much as it's possible, because it compares to what other players are doing that year.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Huh? There are plenty of what I would call average fans here, as there were on the old BDC site and other forums. What you're saying is equivalent to saying the average person doesn't use social media.
  18. Bellhorn04
    How do you know all this, Denny? Do you actually sit in the bleachers at a lot of games and talk to these average fans? When I go on message boards (I visit some other ones as well), I see a lot of comments that use newer stats. Which suggests to me that there are a lot of people interested in them - and it seems to me anything that promotes interest is a good thing.
  19. Bellhorn04
    So many do. Just look at that closer the Mets acquired from the Mariners this offseason. After the 2018 season he had, what could possibly go wrong for the Mets on that one?
  20. Bellhorn04
    Isn't that when most big deadline trades have historically occurred, though? Theo traded Nomar at the very last moment. I think part of the problem is that in the internet world we're constantly hungering for fresh news. As soon as we get some, we devour it and we're hungry for more.
  21. Bellhorn04
    8th player in MLB history with 5 3-homer games. OPS up to .906. What say you?
  22. Bellhorn04
    E-Rod has been a human rabbit's paw the last 2 seasons with the run support.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Part of that is just what you might call force of habit or sticking with the familiar, I guess. I think a starting pitcher's W-L record is still something of interest, and in some cases it can be indicative of how they've pitched. It's just another one of those numbers that have to be looked at in context to other numbers, especially run support.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Even the fans in the bleachers now know a pitcher's W-L record is a very unreliable indicator of performance.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, we're not trading for Syndergaard or any other starters. Cashner was it. If we're lucky Dave will get us another legit reliever and call it a day.
