  1. I got stoned with my wife and she fell asleep. Typical Saturday night.
  2. I've been spot-checking the game on Gameday. Looks like quite a snoozer.
  3. The fact that they didn't get Hanley into even one single meaningless game at 1B this year does not bode well for them trying it next year.
  4. Yes, the avatar thing is funny. One time 700hitter was having an argument with Spitball, another poster who also has his dog for an avatar, and it was driving me nuts with the two dogs going back and forth.
  5. That's Bubbles, and he's not as insane as he looks. But he has this wisecracking ventriloquist's dummy named Conky who looks like him...that's me.
  6. Screw that. I'll give you some honesty. I want him back or I want him to stink. Well, OK, he can pitch well if he signs with Miami.
  7. Yeah, it'd be nice to see that guy come back. He was so good in the 2013 postseason.
  8. Congratulations Jacko. Wild Card game in Da Bronx should be fun viewing. No need to tell you who I'll be hoping for of course.
  9. Trajectory yes. But I think you can only go so far. Most of the things you mentioned also affect hitters and pitchers, and they tend to even out over the season.
  10. Except that he may have an innings limit of 180 or something like that.
  11. UZR ratings will probably be done strictly by computer within the near future. The technology just keeps advancing.
  12. Price's final price tag should be something like 220 million, depending on which teams are in on him. That's a tough call for John Henry, who has gone on record about how deals like that for 30-year old pitchers are a bad idea. On the trade front, Carrasco seems to be the consensus pick as the best target. I don't like the idea of trading E-Rod at all.
  13. Some unintentional human error is almost always to be expected in data collection.
  14. All the data falsifying in the world wouldn't have made Masterson less hittable this year.
  15. If data is being falsified to a degree that matters, someone is going to notice.
  16. The thing is, if a guy's pitch velocity declines significantly, you usually find out about it first by him getting hammered. There's your accuracy test right there.
  17. I think if you're using such data for serious purposes, you're going to go a little further to authenticate that it's reliable. That would include consulting game scouts etc.
  18. 'JUGS GUN' has a nice ring to it.
  19. LOL You should be a comedy writer of some sort, seriously.
  20. I think they will acquire one TOTR starter and two relievers. Anything beyond that would be Gravy City.
  21. I don't really understand what it would affect one way or the other. What do you think it would affect?
  22. Now I have to check my 2004 DVD's!
  23. We all remember Pedro's infamous relief stint in 2004 ALCS Game 7. After giving up the 2 runs Pedro was throwing smoke to get the last 2 outs of the inning. The radar gun had him throwing high 90's on a few of those pitches. I've got the DVD to prove it, as I'm sure a lot of us do.
  24. Strange anecdote. I have no clue what competitive advantage could possibly result.
