  1. You mean the ball that wasn’t a balk?
  2. 13 pitches 3 for hits Send him down before they permanently ruin him
  3. Send him down. He has the talent but right now he absolutely sucks. Three hits and a run already.
  4. 11th biggest payroll is middle third. I wonder how our dead money total compares with the dead money total for other teams. If we have more than most then it’s a matter of spending money wisely more than spending a lot of money.
  5. The real problem is lack of talent up and down the lineup in all three phases of the game. You can thank Henry for that. “Full throttle” my ass.
  6. 3-0 already. Just tuned in and the game is almost over. The descent into last place continues.
  7. I tune in when I have the time and the inclination whether they are winning or losing. If they are playing like crap and not worth watching I leave. And I feel free to comment on them either way. Hope you have no problem with that.
  8. I would have left Pivetta out there until his arm fell off.
  9. Three: they are the Sox is #3. This one is pretty much over already. I predict that this is the beginning of the team finding its rightful place in THE CELLAR again.
  10. It’s not really about this year. This is another last place team. If we want Bello to contribute in a couple of years when (hopefully) the team is relevant again he needs to get demoted so he can get his act together against inferior hitters.
  11. Get ANYONE up. Bello needs to go down to try to get his act together so that in a couple of years when this team has a chance to be competitive he can help. Don’t be fooled: this is a last place team.
  12. Yup Game over Bello should be sent down Get someone who can pitch up
  13. Anxiety disorder is a pretty awful condition. Hopefully two weeks is enough
  14. Curious to see what Martin has this year. He was great last year. I think he’s back or will be soon.
  15. I live out here near SF. So I was able to read stories about him in the local newspapers. Apparently he’s a real ass. Rude. Arrogant.
  16. I didn’t foresee it. But I watched the game he pitched and when you are always dealing with 2 runners on base you’re going to need to be lucky. To his credit he didn’t implode but pitchers with a high WHIP tend to give up a lot of runs. Hopefully he’ll get his act together. He certainly has the talent to do it.
  17. Trout is at 176 Bonds was at 182 but he cheated
  18. I think OPS+ is better because some ballparks are hitters parks and some aren’t. OPS+ corrects for that. For example the parks the A’s play in has a lot of foul territory resulting in more foul ball outs. I think you have to look at all the stats. But no one stat tells you everything.
  19. Career And you’re right! Ruth 206
  20. Show me where I said “he’s not trying”. I said he’s been disappointing the past few starts-which is a fact. Of course he’s trying. He simply was playing with fire by allowing too many baserunners. It’s a figure of speech. Chill.
  21. Trivia: who has the all time highest OPS+ and for extra credit how high was it?
  22. From google: “ OPS+ takes a player's on-base plus slugging percentage and normalizes the number across the entire league. It accounts for external factors like ballparks. It then adjusts so a score of 100 is league average, and 150 is 50 percent better than the league average.” https://www.google.com/search?q=ops%2B&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS1049US1049&oq=ops%2B&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyDAgAEEUYORixAxiABDIMCAEQABgUGIcCGIAEMgcIAhAAGIAEMgcIAxAAGIAEMgcIBBAAGIAEMgcIBRAAGIAEMgcIBhAAGIAEMgcIBxAAGIAEMgcICBAAGIAEMgcICRAAGIAE0gEINjA5NGowajSoAhOwAgHiAwQYASBf&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8
  23. Doesn’t it take into account the home park? Maybe that’s a different stat
