    Lester was also a high pitch count guy in his early days. Let's hope Pomeranz is more like Lester than Dice-K.

    Getting mowed down by Edwin Jackson...brutal.

    There aren't many games where managers steal wins.

    Reminiscent of the 2002 team which had an inordinate number of blowout wins.

    What's comical is the folks who are bewildered by the fact that the offense can't score any runs today after scoring a pile yesterday. Um, you may notice that the pitchers we're facing today are completely different than the ones we faced yesterday...

    Somebody go deep!

    One of those frustration-fests on the offensive end.

    Where in the heck is iortiz? I hope he's not 'embarrassed' about being wrong about Porcello. Ain't no big deal.

    The Cubs

    Bellhorn04 replied to iortiz's topic in Other Baseball

    A Cubs-Giants playoff series could be a good one. Bumgarner is a major factor all by himself.

    As always, I highly respect your opinion on these matters even when it doesn't quite coincide with mine. It's not about who's right or wrong. This particular topic of the impact of decisions just interests me a lot. As I said earlier, the crux of the whole Grady thing for me was the data about how the 2003 Pedro's effectiveness fell off dramatically at about 105 pitches and that was why Theo gave specific instructions. Can we really blame Pedro for doing exactly what the data said he would do?

    Graveman is the guy Billyboy got for Josh Donaldson, and has been pitching well.

    It was reported that while the 8th inning was transpiring John Henry asked the other execs 'Can I fire him right now?'
  14. Bellhorn04
    OK, one play or one decision can't ever be the sole factor, but they can be the single biggest factor.
  15. Bellhorn04
    And you can be very grumpy, so there.

    There is a possible thrifty solution to the 2017 DH situation of course: Hanley DH Shaw/Travis 1B Moncada 3B

    I love Red Sox W's on the West Coast. If they're winning while I'm sleeping I can live with it.

    At the time I wasn't sure if Little was doing the right thing or not. I had my fingers crossed like all other Sox fans. But when I found out later about the instructions he had been given and all the numbers, I was livid at him.

    Actually, Timlin and Embree were both lights out that postseason. Combined numbers: 10 IP 4 hits 0 runs 2 walks 7 K's And Timlin's total numbers vs. the Yankees for 2003, regular season and postseason: 13.1 IP 4 hits 2 runs 3 walks 12 K's

    It's probably the right method. After all you can't spend big money everywhere. It doesn't always work of course.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Somehow an approach of 'let's just throw a bunch of stuff at the wall and see what happens' isn't very reassuring. Right now our 2017 bullpen has Kimbrel, Smith hopefully, Ross, Kelly hopefully, Barnes and God knows what else.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Andrew Miller is proving to be an exception thus far. The guy has been phenomenal for the Yankees and now the Guardians.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Good for him.
  24. Bellhorn04
    That sucks.
  25. Bellhorn04
    The Grady Little situation was about him ignoring clear-cut instructions to remove Pedro at 105 pitches, this was based on data presented to him by Theo. Little ignored the edict and Pedro gave up 3 runs. Hypothetically, Grady's decision cost 4 runs, and we would have won 5-2 instead of losing 6-5. (There's some uncertainty in there.) The decision probably cost him his job. So it was one of the all-time costly decisions, hypothetically.
