Happy Labor Day motherfuckers. Or is it Memorial- I always get those two confused

I'm working on one of my elaborate baseball R scripts. I'm starting it like this:

>Jerad Eickhoff == Garbage

 

[Cedrique]

WTF Garbagehoff. At this rate Mackanin will be reserving a room at the "Mariot" by the 3rd inning (since he can no longer page dr. Oberholtzer)

 

[Omar 382]

Just walked back from the gym- WTF. Wait, actually, never mind, same score as when I left. I guess I'm just a sucker for the dramatics

It's all about perspective. We thought Obi was awful until we stayed at the Mariot Hotel (with no complimentary wi-fi, mind you). For example, when I'm high and talking to myself at 3 AM on campus and am following a girl around, I'm always very offended that she walks fast and tries to get away from me. WTF- I'm not a rapist; I don't even look like a rapist. But last Friday I was on Chester's eastside walking to my car from this place I volunteer at. I noticed two black guys were walking at a swift pace behind me, and I picked my own speed up personally...

 

[Cedrique]

yeah, more of the same. The Phillies making some scrub with an ERA over 4.00 in his minor league career look like Dizzy Dean.

WTF Rupp

point taken. BTW, it's good to see you volunteering. I look forward to the day when the homeless guy asking me for 5 bucks knows the value of wOba and WAR.

Don't make me go Mike Vick circa 2005 on your fan base, because I will if you keep sucking ass

 

[Omar 382]

Why is Derek Dietrich hitting eighth?

 

[Cedrique]

Freddy!

 

[Omar 382]

Freddy! He always seems to come up big. I've got to check his WPA

 

[Omar 382]

Freddy is 106/154 in WAR, yet only 129/154 in WPA. That's kind of surprising. I see he has a fairly high +WPA but also a very high -WPA

 

[Omar 382]

He's 100th in +WPA

 

[Cedrique]

Yeah, and he has 56 RBIs!

 

[Omar 382]

Yeah, and he has 56 RBIs!

God damn!!!

 

[Omar 382]

 

[Cedrique]

God damn!!!

see I don't just look at the simple stats like his .231 batting average. I look at advanced shit like RBI, SB, Wins and saves for pitchers, etc.

 

[Omar 382]

This lineup is stacked when Stanton returns

 

[Omar 382]

We all know this game is over- time for some stat-padding
