Dustin Pedroia is the "gold standard" for hitting doubles that would be routine fly balls in major league stadiums.

Don't ask down to cite pedroia's spot on the UZR lists that he spent the better part of 2 weeks humping for other players

wrong...

the wall takes more HR's from him, than it gives him doubles...already at least 2 this year...high line drives off the walls = HR's in 29 other ball parks...

Pedroia is fine 2nd baseman, both with the glove and with the bat.

But he isn't the "gold standard" with either.

Why this simple truth isn't good enough for Sox fans is anyone's guess.

LOL..."neutral broadcasters" They're either on YES, Fox or ESPN...which is fucking neutral?

And you think they do anything less for pedroia? :laugh3:

Seriously. Paydirt watches 150 Yankees games/year on the YES network. "Whoa, that Michael Kay has a lot of good things to say about Cano's defense!"

That was my point...pedroia isn't even top 5 on the very same defensive list he was citing just a couple of weeks ago...

Seriously you have no fucking clue what you're talking about

Find me a piece of non Boston literature that says Cano sucks in the field

Rock tell us again how "you don't understand why some people are so infatuated with you" fresh off you saving a picture of one of them to your hard drive the minute you saw it?

Don't deflect.. Go on... Give it a go...


URL image info appears slowly sometimes on the cloud im on. i have to close and reopen it a few times, so saving works faster. i do the same with things like this:

Let me guess....he's 6th? Where's "magic Glove" Cano?

Defensive metrics are only valid when they make Sox players look better than everybody else.

And a side note...I'm not a fan of defensive metrics, no matter what they show.

and just for clarification....Everyone has some homerism for their teams/players...I obviously have some for gardner...the "extreme homerism" I was referring to was the brady ball washing, the "19-0 patriots", and just general over the top-ness that you see much much more of on the red sox side of it...which is why the more rational sox fans get on the homers for the stupid things they say...

Guy has 2 dingers and 20 RBI being protected by a fucking MVP candidate

Robbie Cano has Susan Waldman batting behind him most nights

Pedroia is a nice little player

The End

That VP said OBP was "the only thing that matters" He's not stupid.

It's important, but hardly "the only thing that matters"

OPS+ is the most important stat

an anemic OBP is merely the reason that so many Jays have low OPS+

Strikeoutcibia doesn't suck solely because he has a low OBP. He sucks because he has a low OPS+. He has a low OPS+ because he has a low OBP

Speaking of which, remember how for about a month the only thing HW could hump was "still don't think K'cibia will hit 20/75? BWAHAHAHHA I'm right again!!!!"?

Well guess who's no longer on pace for 75 RBI's....
