    Randomness at its finest.

    Good movie, The Right Stuff.

    Rivera was pretty awesome at what he did, though. And he could pitch the multiple innings when needed. He pitched 3 innings in the Grady-Pedro game.

    The initial attack by Price, of course, came after Eck's infamous 'Yuck' comment. Apparently a number of Red Sox players were ticked off at Eck for what they deemed harsh treatment from him. JBJ had his own little episode with Eck a couple of years earlier. I'm not saying any of that to justify Price. But Shaughnessy's take here, unsurprisingly, does leave something out.

    I never ignore ya Denny. I like your posts.

    And some new stats shouldn't affect anyone's enjoyment. Old school folks can just ignore them.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Oh you're such a smarty-pants.

    Even outstanding is pretty vague. In the old days we looked in the paper to see the top 10 in batting average, RBI etc. Now we can see who the top 10 in OPS and WAR are too - if you want. It's not really that big of deal.

    Major league players are all good players.

    Greatest relief pitcher. If he was the greatest pitcher he would have been a starter.
  11. Bellhorn04
    OK, just use RAR then, if the W is an issue.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Yes, it's getting near time to break out the ABY shirts and hats.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Is that really a big deal? As Slasher has pointed out, 'WAA' or Wins Above Average is also calculated. So if you prefer that, it's there. WAR seems to average about 2 more than WAA for a position player for a 150 game season. But it does vary.

    Please. The guy seems to have a decent stick but he's an abominable outfielder. He's a DH.
  15. Bellhorn04
    What a courteous gesture for you to start this for us.
  16. Bellhorn04
    - 5 points, for no sense of humor.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Good play.
  18. Bellhorn04
    As in the defensive ratings you mean?
  19. Bellhorn04
    He's doing pretty well for a 28-year old rookie. A 1.0 WAR in less than a third of a full season.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Another nail in the 2019 coffin.
  21. Bellhorn04
    With JBJ, WAR is almost always used to defend him against people who fixate on his batting average. That's a good thing, right?
  22. Bellhorn04
    The elevated FB on an 0-2 or 1-2 can be a great pitch, as long as it's not too high, as you say. It's a low-risk pitch because even if the batter makes contact he's likely to fly out or pop it up. Plus you don't have to worry about it bouncing past the catcher. But you can never be too predictable one way or the other, right?
  23. Bellhorn04
    Devers has the equally hot Bogey behind him. But Bogey has the struggling JD behind him, so how Bogey is staying hot is anyone's guess.
  24. Bellhorn04
    WAR is a single number, yes, but you can also see at a glance offensive WAR and defensive WAR and all the component numbers that make it up. It's not really just one number, end of story - not if you really do want to analyze it.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Yep. And the value of his 2018 postseason performance can't even be measured.
