    I bet that got you lots of girls in high school.

    Born right handed

    Julien has looked marginally better in the field over the past month or so.

    You can do that??!? On your PHONE? No way,!!

    Nice crowd.

    Stay loose in the box, rook.

    No. "What?" But not ""Who?"

    As it happens, I've let skip know I'm not available out of the pen tonight. Oddly, he said that knowledge had no effect on his planned pen usage.

    Agree to disagree. Preventing runs is the primary job of a pitcher. Of course some will benefit more or less from defense over the course of a season. Some also pitch in bigger parks and will see their FIP benefit. Every measure can be nitpic'd. That said, nothing better captures a starter's job than earned runs allowed. At the end of the day, scoring or preventing runs is all that actually matters towards winning or losing.

    Terrible news, IYAM. Even if he comes back next weekend for a game, there's no possible way to spin this positively. Even if the hamstring is 100 percent, not facing live pitching for 10 days is bad news.

    Per MLB.com, Lewis to 10 day IL, Jordan Luplow recalled. No possible way to spin this as anything but terrible news, even if he makes it back in 10 days.

    Nishioka-San says kon'nichiwa

    I don't think the post season is the time to "find out" anything. Ramp up Buxton for spring training. Find out then. BTW, "unhealthy speculation" should have zero impact on anything. Certainly not something to base a playoff starting spot on. Holy cow.

    As to the article, you need some serious Midwestern bias to give Sonny the CYA. Garrett Cole wins, and deservedly so.

    There's no better measurement of a starter's effectiveness than ERA. It's literally the point of pitching.
  17. USAFChief
    WPA is pretty dubious in general, but has little to do with performance. And if you want performance based measurements, you don't want fWAR for pitchers. It specifically measures what someone thinks should have happened rather than how many runs were allowed.

    Is a 10 AM beer really drinking all day? I think not. That's Brunch. Beer for breakfast is drinking all day.

    Greene looked like the best pitcher the Twins have faced this year. Nice Win.

    How about walking the leadoff hitter...is that doing his job? Jax was pretty lucky today.
  22. USAFChief
    Winnah. I still don't trust Jax
  23. USAFChief
    Jax is simply not reliable.

    Gotta go ladies and germs, Mrs Chief calls. Wanna see a "4" in that jersey thread, and I mean it.
