  1. I haven't seen all those guys play either. In fact I haven't even seen all the AAAA players, but I'm confident he's better than (nearly) off of them just because he's made it to the bigs. And that's what WAR compares him to, a replacement player. How is anyone supposed to have confidence in a "formula" that says that JBJ is no better than a replacement player??? dWAR is the triumph of statistics over logic.
  2. I take it back, Matt. You done good.
  3. NOW?? NOW in the 10th inning? I hope you have something in mind other than sleep. :-)
  4. Man, I don't like that play. A bad throw and that runner is at 3B!
  5. Yep. For all the hoopla about how good the Y's are IMO the MFY are going to be in trouble if these two teams get to the WS.
  6. I have a bad feeling about Barnes in any inning after the 8th.
  7. If one doesn't believe all of them they're then left in the position of not knowing which ones to believe and which not to believe. So they believe the ones they choose to.
  8. i'D have them both running. Worst case would be winning run still on 2nd
  9. Can we start this off with a WP please
  10. One out. These are the guys we want up in this situation,
  11. Menoza: "This is what WE don't want." Really, Jessica. WE?? Shouldn't the words you were looking for have been "The Dodgers"?
  12. Turner plays the banjo?
  13. Pretty. Turner was thinking away and Workman got him looking inside.
  14. I do like being the home team in X-tra inning games.
  15. Time for the BP to step up. Don't let this one get away.
  16. Beni - predictable. Unfortunately
  17. When do they say that would have been a HR in 28 other parks?
  18. They're trying to distract us from how bad the announcers are.
  19. It's a character issue. And ARod has proven over and over that he has none. I reserve the right to be biased against anyone who's proven to be of poor character.
  20. Ok. just for the record here, you said. "It honestly seems to me like multiple people on this board are sexist." Then when Slash said, "f*** her" you said that proves your point. Then you say there were no sexual overtones or implications you picked up on in Slash's comment????
  21. Not at all. The "f*** her" wasn't sexist, it was a comment on her general abilities. If someone were talking about ARod and said "f*** him" would you say the person saying it is gay?
  22. I'm not even comparing JBJ to other CF'ers. I'm doing the same thing dWAR does, comparing his defense to AAAA players. IMOH saying that Bradley is worse than a AAAA player at any point in the season is, in a word, BOGUS. I'm having trouble believing that true baseball fans anywhere would find that credible. And yet, in order to defend dWAR one has to believe that's true.
  23. But don't you think that's odd for a player who's only marginally better defensively than a AAAA player? Doesn't that mean there are probably 20 or so players who are no better defensively than that AAAA guy?
  24. ... and they weren't obviously inaccurate as often as they are we'd have more faith in them. The last thing I need is someone telling me that JBJ is worse defensively than a AAAA player, which is what I was being told earlier in the year.
