Mariano Rivera blows (the game) & Paps returns to Fenway

[Rock Strongo]

I'm not of the ilk to make a big deal about home road splits.

He takes advantage of his environment. Good for him. Bottom line is what he does to help win games. OPS+ is a fine enough measure for that. Don't need to divulge much further..

Home OPS is higher than road OPS in the MLB. And there is a reason, familiarity of the environment you call home.. OPS+ gauges the Value for what is an acceptable OPS for each park.

Now, as far as talent and ability? You would need to drive further than OPS+ . But it gets a bit mucky if we start using Road numbers as "true indicators" of talent. IMO

smart people get this

and youre wicked smart

He was pissed 2 hours ago, when his constant humping of Red Sox prospects and ridiculous trade proposal was mocked.

[Village Plumber]

how about fields with right field bleachers that kate moss could fart from and and the home plate ump could smell?

Sure thing

Robinson Cano - .895 OPS on the road


.723 OPS when he can't hit 220 foot doubles off the wall

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

Jackie Bradley for Clayton Kershaw seems legit, and if the Dodgers were smart, theyd throw in Matt Kemp. I dont see what the issue is really.

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

What ever you do. Don't look at WAR. Use DSET. It's a much better stat. [Dirt's Seeing Eye Test].

Yes of course

God Forbid we actually watch an athletes performance to determine how that athlete is performing

[RedSoxWorrld]

nyy1 is the one who owns that fanbase

Dirt, myself, and some anonymous clubhouse attendant that leaked (against Pedroia's wishes) that Dusty was playing through a torn ACL, kidney stones, terminal cancer and premature balding..... are just carrying on his legacy

.723 OPS on the road

He's a decent player when a wall in left field isn't 220 feet away from him

we get it

you miss him

he had more game than you........

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

"you wish you had a player like Pedroia on your team"
