  1. Threeish weeks, it is all of three weeks. Not sure if he can learn anything, and make it a real change, in three weeks......
  2. By that logic, pretty much every process is random, and process management is pure bunk...... No, your statement about Kershaw is 100% inaccurate. Being right 100% of the time is not required for a process to be in control. By that logic, since sometimes bunting in the first inning works, calling for a bunt is random, and we should never criticize that decision.....I mean, sometimes an airplane crashes, does that mean maintenance is random?
  3. Why? If he's such a good mentor, why don't the Yankees want him?
  4. This is a thread about US holidays, take your damn commy international stuff to another thread end silly rant......
  5. Picks 1-15 or so, yes, not a crapshoot. After that......(actually, I think it is pick 40) it is randomish.
  6. No harm.......none at all. I admit my post was ... potentially unclear....
  7. I agree, using 1 year of data is the best way to analyze something.
  8. Uh, you think you had to explain that? I am insulted..... I was suggesting that if that was the question, I'm not sure why I care that was the answer.....
  9. That doesn't seem like it was a useful question.......
  10. Hey, I wanted him down longer when he was sent down last time, don't look at me with those words (as it were).....
  11. A bonus from the chat: Matt 12:49 Can you think of a legitimate reason why Aaron Hicks is still playing baseball in NY? Dan Szymborski 12:49 They keep paying him, so he figures he might as well keep showing up
  12. A Buxton article: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-changes-byron-buxton-has-and-hasnt-made/ From the Sullivan chat: Josh 12:41 Any chance the Twinkies actually demote Sano? Would there be any justifiable reason considering the circumstances? Dan Szymborski 12:42 Their odd thrashing about his defensive position
  13. We'll disagree......on the first part, not the second part.
  14. "Among 363 batters who have batted at least 300 times since the beginning of last season, just three have a lower wRC+ than Buxton’s mark of 49."
  15. I don't think people realize just how bad Buxton has been .....
  16. Uh, take out the best players from one sample, and then compare? The whole point of #1 or 2 is better is that you get a shot at the generational players you don't otherwise get. Taking those players out, is really flawed. Awful even.
  17. While I normally skip the celebrations that aren't food..... Today is national happiness happens day. Your mood is largely your choice. Today, especially, decide to be happy.
  18. I refuse to under estimate Trump, or my fellow citizens, ever......until I wake up a week later, i'm not sure I'll believe the outcomes.
  19. Fair.....very fair. When the season looked completely lost, I was hoping to be in the top 3......but now that Kepler is here, and Berrios is here, and Gibson is healthy......I would rather they grow this year and not be in the top 3, I think.
  20. Any scenario? Sure.... Likely scenario? No, not at all.
  21. Good question, I don't listen to podcasts, other than some TED talks and sometimes Radiolab, but this is probably a good idea.
  22. If people don't like him for PED use, I can sort of understand that.....but people hated him way before that came out. He was good looking, successful, super rich, and didn't play the PR game.....
  23. yes, or as someone else said, 15th vs 1.......
  24. You wanna make a bet on 15 vs 1, average career WAR?
