    You are correct. My bad, sorry, I couldn't hear you over the sound of his deafening awesomeness. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/avatars/08/0817d241adbf64bf34c07dd62ed338b3f6c430b0_full.jpg

    About half of all AAA pitchers pitch in the PCL where ERAs are inflated, so I'm not sure this is the right place to draw the line when evaluating them.

    If anyone's made an archer comment than this, I have missed it.

    Throw in Tommy Herr for Tom Brunansky and I'll think about it.

    How about Opponent OPS? Or, given that relievers spend a greater fraction of their time in situational moments, e.g. two outs with a man on second late in a tie game, where a walk looks bad for OPS but is nearly irrelevant?

    The recent revelation about Bill Cosby is just the most recent evidence that rape isn't so hard to find, if the accusers feel comfortable enough to bring their stories forward.

    Lopat no doubt muttered that the PA guy didn't know how to work the equipment upstairs, but nobody outside the dugout heard him.

    The typo was in the title, and I don't know whether autocorrect affects titles or not. For the record, I corrected the typo in the title (though not a different typo in the message body) around the same moment that Seth commented on it, so there could be some confusion on that count.

    I've been a proponent for Achter, in preference to signing guys like Boyer or not trading away guys like Fien. However, I hadn't looked at Rochester FIP numbers on Fangraphs until now, and Achter's nice ERA looks like it may be something of a mirage by this measure. 3.69. Even guys like the maligned Mark Hamburger have more favorable FIP. I'm not 100% sold on FIP being the ultimate projection tool, but maybe the AAA on-field staff are seeing the same things that FIP is trying to say, namely that he isn't having a standout season at this level and probably would not be a net positive asset if he were brought up?

    In that case my personal list gives Josh Gibson quite a number of WAR as well. / point being, an open ended question like this thread-starter gets interesting when you start to really think the word "best" through

    Well, it gets late early here in the eastern time zone. Good night everyone, time to slip into my pajamas and dream of iambs and penta meters.

    The obvious rejoinder:
  13. ashbury
    Yeah, I actually wanted May.
  14. ashbury
    That's the coming sequel to the Fantastic Four. The Interesting Five.
  15. ashbury
    I might send him. Pelf or May are my only two choices for the eighth.

    Q: Why is Shane Robinson batting ninth? A: Because the rules don't allow ten batters in a lineup.
  17. ashbury
    We have a horrendous #8 and #9 in our lineup. This has been your Circus Boy Bonus Update.
  18. ashbury
    BBEY 18, perhaps. But Mazda 323 => 8.
  19. ashbury
    Iambic Pussycat?
  20. ashbury
    Big Pelf's got this.
  21. ashbury
    But does he get to read about it in Iambic Pajamas?
  22. ashbury
    You don't want to know my sudden epiphany about therapist Bill Cosby.
  23. ashbury
    There seems to be a problem with the MLB PBP feed, it keeps saying Tigers 3Bman Castellanos made a fielding error.

    PLOUFFE!!! I realize that normally this is reserved for home runs, but the way this game is going, I feel it is merited.
