    Brett....dont be a baby like Sutton. I'm not being a baby. It's a 162 game season. Chalk it up and move on and try to beat Wandy Rodriguez.
  2. brettac1
    The game isnt over Scoop, that's the only part I disagreed with.

    yost should have let davis work out of it... he deserved the opportunity, no matter how many pitches he had thrown. davis has been our second best pitcher the last 2 years, and i think he has earned the right to work out of jams like this. I disagree. Davis walked Ausmus - that's a telltale sign to get him out. He put the runners on, Kane Davis failed. Life goes on.
  4. brettac1
    That's what happens when you walk Brad Freakin' Ausmus. That is unacceptable.

    How good are the chances they sign both of them? Or is that going to cost too much?
  6. brettac1
    Hey, that's a chance isn't it? Albeit, it's a slim one, but it's a chance.

    Hardy needs to play to develop. He's already as good as Hall, and he'll only get better. I'd rather see someone who knows how to take a pitch and work a count than Bill Hall. EDIT: I'd like to say that was a great post by GoodGod. That sums it up quite well.

    Baseball Musings Day by Day Database Baseball Reference Baseball Prospectus EDIT: Since I asked for it, I'll post it. I imagine rluz will delve into this much deeper than just a link, but: Article about Bill James' Log5 Equation

    Yay, lefty Magruder against Clemens. At least a 3-hit day for sure. This is pathetic. Man, I can't stand Ned Yost. That's all. I said it, and I'm sticking to it.
  10. brettac1
    Hall really doesn't hit that well, either, unless you consider a .313 OBP hitting well.
  11. brettac1
    Hey rluz, you should put that Log5 in the Statistical Analysis forum FAQ.

    I really don't know much about this team, I was 4 years old at the time. It seems that they really had some amazing pitching, but my extent of knowledge on that team is the fist-pump that I still attempt to recreate every once in a while and get chills when seeing. Yes, there is warm blood in my veins, EDR.

    Yount didn't win the MVP in '87, he won in '82 and '89. George Bell won in '87, Molitor finished 5th, and Yount was 18th. Trammell did finish 2nd, though. baseball-reference.com/aw...html#ALmvp

    You wouldn't know their record in 1 run games, would you? Per Retrosheet's gamelog, they were 28-28.
  15. brettac1
    If you consider a .300 AVG to be elite, I guess it's a .400 OBP and .500 SLG.
  16. brettac1
    That's it, too. He is looking for a pitch to kill, as he should. He's looking for a fastball, I'd assume, in the spot where he wants it. If he doesn't get it there he'll take until he does, or until he K's.

    I think part of the reason Dunn strikes out so much is that he runs a ton of counts full. His eye is also so amazing that he takes a lot of strikes, because he doesn't think they are strikes. There are also spots where he is pitched where he won't swing, regardless of count, because he can't do anything with them. I think using K's to evaluate Dunn or similar players, like say Brad Wilkerson, paints an incomplete picture of their skillset. Dunn is second in the league in P/PA, behind Abreu (who also K's a bunch), and Wilkerson is 6th. All in all, I'd say that their K totals are an indicator more of their patience than their swinging for the fences.

    The main reason I liked him was that he was throwing 100+ dominant bullpen innings a season. That's amazing, and also part of the reason I think Mike Marshall also deserves to at least have his name mentioned in the discussion. 106 games and 208 IP out of the bullpen? Wow.
  19. brettac1
    Right here: www.tangotiger.net/RE9902.html There may be a newer one, but this is usually the one I reference when I mention Run Expectancy.

    As long as Santo goes in, I'm cool.
  21. brettac1
    I tend to say yes, as well. But I think if he gets elected that the Hall will then start throwing less-deserving players like Lee Smith in, who were basically compilers. Sutter threw over 100 innings out of the bullpen 5 times, and the highest ERA he posted in those seasons was 2.90, and he went as low as 1.34 and 1.54. He was a relief ace, and I think he belongs in - he may not have had the longevity, though.
  22. brettac1
    I think he learned how to pitch the same way Jaret Wright did: Leo Mazzone. And Weeks won't get traded. An everyday offensive player is more valuable than a pitcher. If the team offered an entire starting staff for him, yeah I'd do it, but not for one.
  23. brettac1
    Hudson signed a long-term deal with ATL. The Brewers already have a SS, with Hardy, so Furcal doesn't make sense. Pierre isn't really very good, so I'd have no interest in him. Castillo? The Brewers have Weeks. Miller is better than Estrada. Burnett I agree with, and I've said that I'd love to see him signed in the offseason in numerous threads. I just don't think it matters all that much if they played for a "winner" or not, though.

    Someone saw him at the mall buying a bed. This just proves he's lazy to me - why should he sleep? He needs to focus on baseball and baseball only, 24/7. At least if he does sleep, he needs to wear his uniform when he does.
  25. brettac1
    Whether you realize it or not, there are a whole lot of very good players out there who could really help a team that would probably not be described as either young studs or past their prime. Well, start naming. Who are they, where are they. You said there are a "whole lot". Seriously, the team just needs more talent and more production that will likely come with the maturation of their young players. And doesn't a guy have to play in order to gain experience? In two years Hardy, Weeks, etc. will be considered "experienced", won't they?
