Probably hard to tell, if any other college campus is crying. Considering the UM alumni are still crying about that loss to MSU from LAST season. Did they ever verify that the UM punter was blinded by Harbaugh's khaki pants??? Or was it the sunlight bouncing off the metal fillings in Harbaugh's (constantly) open mouth that blinded the poor guy?

Whatever Omar....enjoy baseball in whatever fashion you desire. Just let other people enjoy it in the manner they choose. OK?

If you don't - I know someone who is excellent at peeing on your shoes.

I'm already holding it.

(I think the pill popper has me on ignore.)

 

[Howie115]

NOW. biggest question...how many times is assmouse going to let Sanchez hang out there the 3rd time around the batting order???

If he doesn't, then Sanchez will have a ton of 4- and 5-inning starts. We need the starters to occasionally go longer than that. So it is up to Anibal and Rich Dubee to figure out how to get through an order for the third time.

I know more about the history of the game then you'll ever know

sure you do. if your baseball knowledge is like your grammar, you're lying.

 

[Iffster]

Watching Shane Greene pitch for Detroit tonight, I will need to have this etched into my head. Omar explained how WAR for pitchers is calculated. I will try and use it tonight as I watch...

''Pitching WAR uses FIP (with infield fly balls), adjusted for park, and scaled to how many innings the pitcher threw. FIP is translated into runs, converted to represent value above replacement level, and is then converted from runs to wins.''

I can only hope the crunching of the Doritos I will be eating does not distract me from correctly doing the math.

 

[dougplayer]

Yes. WAR. is so important. .look at all the post season wins it got trout.even though they can't really explain the replacement true value.

 

[dougplayer]

Iffy. Iffy. Iffy. I have tried to school you every way I can. But you have fallen farther back..even to handisoccerbys. Level.
1 last try iffy.
A mustard seed is just a mustard seed.until you plant it. If it falls on rocks..you got the royals if it falls on soil and grows..it's the tigers. Got it?

 

[Omar 382]

Herrera really has refined his previously seldom used slider from what little I have seen so far. Would be very interested to see how he does this year- might be a spike year for him.

He already has a 0.5 wSL on the young season.

Still can't touch Odubel's jockstrap...

 

[dougplayer]

Yep. WAR is so important. Funny how they played over 100 years with out it!!!

 

[Omar 382]

Couldn't agree more. Penicillin is so overrated too!

 

[dougplayer]

Iffy likes WAR. But you right now. As he is eating the early bird special .he is drooling over trout WAR...among other things of trout.

 

[broncosmitty]

Gotta love..... How Vice is a lot better at this.

 

[dougplayer]

Greene struggling...his WAR is going to suffer now
