  1. Im gonna buy a Rays Jersey so I can look 17 again.
  2. Its like the Twins are cashing in their entire backlog of RISP karma at once on the Indians. I kinda feel bad for them.
  3. WH's four stages of female courtship. http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/2014-06/11/18/enhanced/webdr08/anigif_enhanced-13375-1402524173-9.gif http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5bf42icjd1r0jeh0o2_250.gif http://briff.me/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Post-4-The-Princess-Bride-Fun-Facts-From-Behind-the-Scenes-Fezzik-Paddle.gif http://66.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4p75jeI591qakh43o3_250.gif

  5. Seriously Dick said a four letter word? Now that I gotta I gotta hear.
  6. Alright SSO1 I'm way past 20 likes, so, you know
  7. So what you're saying is Mauer is too fragile to play everyday
  8. I just mistyped twins on my phone and autocorrect changed it to stains

  11. Ahhhh. So conflicted to see polanco get the bunt down successfully
  12. Impressive PAs from the kids. Bauer looked pretty much cooked by the time Centeno stepped in.
  13. Mauer, Kepler, Sano. Gonna have to throw strikes to get those guys out.
  14. There are a handful of effective soft-tossing relievers around. I'll be curious to see if Milone can resurrect his career in relief these next two months. Who knows maybe we can flip him at next year's deadline for a promising prospect or two.
  15. Andrew Benintendi (Boston) and Orlando Arcia (Milwaukee) promoted today.
  16. Mainly I was pointing out that Ricky's pitched for some lousy defensive teams. Since defense and BABIP are related it seems logical that some proportion of his ERA-xFIP gap would be explained by defense.
  17. The difference in DEF scores in that frame is 139.5. I don't know what a statistically significant variation would be for the number of IP. Maybe a quarter run isn't enough to come to any conclusions.
  18. Looking more into this xFIP-ERA P Alan Busenitz- since 2014 Angels starters have outperformed xFIP by .29 runs/game. Weaver, Santiago, Tropeano, and Heaney have outperformed the most. Interestingly they are all fly ball guys. Richards has also outperformed it being an extreme ground ball guy. Shoemaker being a 50/50 guy, has matched his ERA to his xFIP. Since 2014 Twins starters have underperformed xFIP by .54 runs/game. May (+1.52, 40.6% FB), Nolasco (+1.21, 36.4% FB) Duffey (+1.08, 28.6% FB) Hughes (+.34, 40.4% FB) Santana (-.56 runs/9. 36.7% FB) Since 2014 the Angels have had the 3rd best defense, the Twins the 3rd worst. Roughly 100-150 runs separated them. Actually between 2006-2013 the Marlins defense was pretty bad too, 4th worst. Safe to say that a significant portion of Ricky's xFIP-ERA underperformance is defense-related IMO.
  19. He has been, in terms of actual runs allowed. By ERA he's a #3 (I'm looking at the 152 starters who have thrown at least 200 IP since 2014). By xFIP he's 4th from last, a fringy #5. Pretty interesting trade really, a chronic xFIP underperformer for an overperformer.
  20. Ah, cheer up amigo http://cdn1.bostonmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Pizza.gif
