    FIP is computed using a different additive factor each season to bring it in line with the actual ERA, making it more understandable. So the correlation you see doesn't really validate anything. It's somewhat like noticing that when the Centigrade temperature goes up, so does the Fahrenheit.

    He's in his age-24 season, so he's not young-young, but he's hardly old for AAA - 3 guys who've pitched for Rochester this season are younger and four are roughly the same age. He hasn't had a bad season since he was 19, and I'm always inclined to assume some undisclosed physical problem when the numbers are anomalous like this. So, to me, there's no urgency to discard him, and I'd be happy to give him another year. It would take a bad 2020 to make me want to be "rid" of him. But, he may indeed choose not to accept a contract renewal if it's offered, and to try his luck in a different organization. And if he's not forecast to help the big club in 2019, then it's not terribly important whether he finishes his season at AAA, at AA, or simply on the shelf.

    Deadpool would probably get a talking to by the TD moderators. Hint hint. But I had the same thought when looking at Liam. He's just... bigger now.

    Man. I step away for a few minutes, and the game thread goes nuts.
  6. ashbury
    Our chances with Liam are considerably better.

    Don't be too tough on them. They have terrible, terrible luck. They show up just after the other team has something good happen. With better luck, they'd have been here for Marwin's bomb and could have celebrated.

    Carnac: Paper Rib Eye. Ed: Paper rib eye? There is such a thing? Carnac: Impossible to know at this juncture. I only divine the contents, not critique them. Ed: What is a juncture, anyway? Carnac: Wait, don't go off on a tangent. This isn't a game thread. Ed: Sorry, Your Magnificence. I got carried away. Carnac: May the fleas of a thousand camels carry away your daughter. Ed: That wouldn't be good. Shall we open the envelope? Carnac: "We"? You got a mouse in your pocket? Ed: All right then. Would you please be so kind? Carnac: So kind of what? Ed: Kind enough to answer what Paper Rib Eye means? Carnac: (*tears envelope, blows into it*) What is the new small-plates restaurant's pricing policy for its steaks?

    Oh, you wanted a baseball thread? Not sure where to find one of those. This is a game thread.

    Good throw from Castro gets him. Grrrr. / edit - maybe spoke too soon?

    Not a problem. My doctor wants me to get more fiber anyway.

    Both pitchers with elevated pitch counts after one inning. Could get deep into both bullpens.

    Yeah, my brother was always full of statements that began, "no child of mine would ever...". Then he married a gal with a young daughter. I didn't hear any of those pronouncements anymore.
