    I think you're being deliberately obtuse. Included in that 55% are obvious mismatches, like it will be this year when the Cubs play the NL wild card. That series could be played in Japan and the Cubs would still be at a huge advantage.

    I think the idea is that the L-R thing can be crucial when it does arise in those late and close situations. Pinch hitters are sometimes available and sometimes a complete non-issue - it could be the 3-4-5 hitters we're talking about.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Kimbrel is a big concern right now, he has to be. 6 walks in his last 3 outings, which is equal to the number of outs he recorded. That's scary business.
  4. Bellhorn04
    As it says, there's no clear-cut definition and it's up to the judgment of the voter. If you think it should simply go to the best player that's your prerogative.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Very unfair. He was brought in with the bases loaded and made one bad pitch to a left-handed power hitter in a park built for left-handed power hitters. Other than that, he's has been doing a great job from the pen.

    That all should have changed when King Felix won the Cy Yung in 2010 with a 13-12 record and nobody complained.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Those stats would need to be stratified based on how big the difference between the 2 teams in W-L record. What I'm really interested in is how much does HFA impact the outcome when the regular season difference between the 2 teams is small.
  8. Bellhorn04
    I disagree. Porcello's W-L record is a product of 2 things: 1) Excellent pitching. 2) Luck - almost 7 runs of support per game. No, you can't penalize him for the run support, but you can't reward him for it either. You have to compare the quality of his pitching against Kluber & Sale & leave the W-L out of it.
  9. Bellhorn04
    I'd like to agree but I can't. Porcello's run support has been off the charts.
  10. Bellhorn04
    He's been giving up an inordinate number of walks lately, there's no question about that.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Nailed.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I don't see much difference in this context...Max impugning Kimbrel's character is about the same as 700hitter calling Farrell brain-dead.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Jeez Max, you take great offense when Farrell gets bashed, but you certainly don't hold back when it's time to bash one of the players.

    Shaw's bat has plummeted into the abyss. His OPS+ is down to 87.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Yes, let's.
  16. Bellhorn04
    The possibility that he could lose the job to Koji has definitely reared its head, I would say.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, the only thing that's concerning is that this is the second time, the other being on August 9, that he's totally lost the ability to throw strikes. He walked 4 in the other game.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Nope. That was his first game, but not his all-important first home game. His first home game was 8 IP/4 ER, for a horrible 4.50 ERA, and a no-decision. He didn't step up in that vital contest. I'm surprised nobody remembers.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Um, Wright had just pitched a complete game 3-hitter and had a 3.01 ERA when he got hurt.
  20. Bellhorn04
    C'mon Slash, you're not being reasonable at all. This reminds me of when Pumpsie Green used to say the same thing about Lester. Price has 225 IP, an ERA+ of 113, a K/BB of 4.77, a bWAR of 2.9. Saying he has pitched like a #2 is fair.
  21. Bellhorn04
    How did Schilling do in his first home start for us? See if you can answer without looking it up.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Sorry, man, but this is just something you're making up. One game early in the year is forgotten quickly.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Price pitched fine in his first start this year.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Coming off an injury though.
  25. Bellhorn04
    .380 is a big ask.
