    Pretty impressed that Macha is leaving in Stetter here. They have 5 right handed hitters in a row so it is showing some confidence in him being more than a LOOGY.
  2. Ennder
    Well think what you will, I'm sure Macha looks at this start as a positive one for Parra and he's the one that counts.
  3. Ennder
    Pitchers are going to walk guys, the hit afterwards was a grounder which is a good result that found a hole and then he made a good pitch to Jones who hit it out. That is not an inning where Parra looked terrible, he just gave up 3 runs.
  4. Ennder
    Wow that was terrible Hardy.

    Counsell is playing like a 35 year old out there this season! Doesn't look his age at all.

    Letting Parra start the 6th was the right choice. It was a bad part of the lineup, his pitch count was low and he needs to build his endurance. Whatever people think of Parra he is part of this teams future, we aren't exactly swimming in pitching prospects and we can't afford to sign a big name free agent. Only if you are a slave to end results instead of focusing on the process involved. He was throwing strikes, his location was pretty good overall, 1 run he gave up was basically because of an error on Cameron and both HR were on good pitches. But if you are going to just look at the ER and try to judge starts you'll never really see the big picture I guess. If you think this start was worse than some of those 'quality' ones he had earlier in the year where he couldn't throw strikes but lucked away with 1 or 2 ER I guess we just view baseball very differently.

    I like Gerut more than Hart against RHP. He is a better fielder and neither seem to be able to hit~. Results sucked but not a bad start by Parra in my opinion. Neither pitch that Chipper hit out were exactly bad, he is just a great hitter. Better than some of those 6 IP, 2 ER and 100 base runner games he had in May thats for sure.
  8. Ennder
    Except he has been doing that kind of thing a lot this year and has a better OPS against with RISP than with the bases empty. This perception that he breaks down mentally just is not true at all. He may have some mental approach issues in general but it certainly isn't him breaking down in tough spots like people like to say it is.

    It is rare but sometimes a RP will take the Cy Young. Gagne, Eckersley, Bedrosian, Sutter, Lyle, Marshall, Fingers etc. I know Eckersley and Fingers both won MVPs, not sure if anyone else has.
  10. Ennder
    The Braves are certainly due to score some runs.

    I don't have a link to the stats but from a fantasy baseball standpoint baseball fantistics did a study on reliability of projections and health by position and it pretty much came up as the reverse of defensive spectrum. 1B and corner OF stay a lot healthier and maintain their production longer, it was a very pronounced difference. CF and 3B slide a good bit faster and then the MI and finally C. It is basically why you shouldn't believe in positional scarcity in fantasy baseball because the more scarce the position the more likely they are to get injured or ineffective as well.
  12. Ennder
    I think most of them were back related and in general 3B is not a position where players stay healthy, it is pretty demanding.
  13. Ennder
    It would hurt our production since it came at 1B. Branyans big flaw has always been his health, he just cannot stay healthy at 3B, there is no good reason to believe that he would have the same line as a fulltime 3B for the Brewers.
  14. Ennder
    I agree with logan3825 but I'll also say that most of the Rangers staff has changed as well so there is no way to say that what Maddux has done has helped that team either.
  15. Ennder
    I just don't see him getting the playtime since they brought up Carlos Gonzalez and have Hawpe, Spilborghs, Smith and Stewart chipping away at playtime. Even if they trade a few guys I'm not sure he plays every day.
  16. Ennder
    I'm going with McCutchen, should get full time play, not a lot of stress.
  17. Ennder
    I don't think Sandoval is a rookie.
  18. Ennder
    Some other guys to keep an eye on below. A few aren't very high upside but are at least getting playtime and well Pat Listach and Angel Berroa won ROYs and they were never high upside. Gerardo Parra Chris Coghlan Tyler Greene Fernando Martinez Andrew McCutchen Antonio Bastardo

    Gallardo has the 14th highest WARP for starters in the NL right now. He'll probably need some help to make it.
  20. Ennder
    In 5 years he probably won't be effective enough to get a good contract anyway so probably sounds about right.
  21. Ennder
    Not every pitch is the same so I don't have an issue with most of Gallardo's starts. Looper threw like 100 pitches in his last start and it was much harder on him than Gallardo's start tonight because so many of the pitches were in one inning. If you aren't in trouble a lot and go 8 innings a 110 pitch count isn't a big issue.
  22. Ennder
    Almost got his ERA under 5 on the year too.
  23. Ennder
    I use them in fantasy sometimes, you can look at matchup ratings that tell you how a player has fared against pitchers like the one they are facing that day. As an example BJ Upton is slugging .781 in 32 ABs vs. pitchers like Hughes since last year. If they had that type of data and they were using it for pitching matchups it wouldn't bother me (with a bigger than 32 AB sample of course) I'm sure some managers use them in theory. Hart can't hit a slider to save his life so he might sit more often against someone who throws a good slider, some managers have to do that kind of thing instinctively even if they don't have specific numeric data to back it up.
  24. Ennder
    I don't have a big issue with using batter vs pitcher type splits. If say some pitcher is a soft tosser who relies on a good change up and Hall killed change up pitchers in his career(pretty sure he doesn't, that is just an example). Breaking it down to 1 hitter vs 1 pitcher is generally pretty weak though.
  25. Ennder
    Because it lowers the Brewers chances of winning the game probably.
