    For all of those lamenting how poor the Brewers offense is,...I remember the mantra of "pitching wins in the playoffs" for like 25 years... and it's probably more like a 45 yr old mantra, but I'm only 41 years old...

    Huh? It is the Mets (payroll $330M starting Justin Verlander at home vs. Colin Rea)...
  3. Oxy
    Especially against one of the top 5 back end BPs in baseball.
  4. Oxy
    How about if he just DH's vs. lefties?

    What is "metsfanatic.com/forum" saying now?

    bye bye Perkins...hello Frelick!?

    Since you asked me not to, I won't name any more. But there are more than a "few exceptions," to the point where it isn't exceptional at all. Get in and get hot.

    Gimme Schanuel and/or Eldridge! If they could double up with those two they would be fun to follow for a few years,

    I like Rock, but have never found him that funny...but his "you can't teach people to care, Jeff...he cares" line after the diving not-quite-a-stop effort by the ball boy made me laugh.

    Veteran savvy...grit...

    Your second point is extremely important...Regression to the mean always happens with enough trials when the true value is known...i.e. rolling a fair dice or flipping a fair coin. In most real world applications (including baseball), the true value is not known...and variables are constantly changing that affect that true value.

    Corey Hart struggled as well...although he's been better since he retired.

    mmmm....I'm not sure about that. Hader blew MULTIPLE games/saves for the Padres in the first few weeks after we traded him. Had he done that with the Brewers our season would have been sunk even earlier than it was. The guy was nails in the playoffs though. And this year, of course. It would be fun to still have the 2 best relievers in baseball...

    Freitag's recruitment sure seemed kinda strange in that nobody else really stepped up to aggressively pursue him (MSU/ILL/Kansas/Gonzaga/etc.). I guess he made comments about how UW was the first to offer and have offered nobody else at his position. Perhaps his first question to schools who contact him is something like "who else are you looking at signing? Am I your top priority?" And got a lot of hemming and hawing in response while UW was all-in. Also, for some reason his ranking seems to have slipped a bit in in the last year. All of that is fine with me. From what I've seen of him he is a gem.

    I do not disagree. Just because it's fun to make lists though I'll put out the Flyin' Illini teams in the late eighties and the '05 Illini. The 38-and-done '15 UK team had the highest efficiency margin in the KenPom era (since 2002 I think). And of course they lost to a UW team that had the highest offensive efficiency in the KenPom era (by a significant margin).

    Clearly. Stats like that which are labelled as all encompassing when they are only offensive/batting stats need to be called something different.
  17. Oxy
    Good enough. Basically a 1st and a 2nd for Rodgers, with some other swaps in there.

    After doing way too many draft simulations, it sure seems like trading down is always a good option. Basically accumulate as many picks as possible from the pick 45-115 range or so. Would I rather have Michael Mayer or get Luke Musgrove AND Zach Kuntz? Brian Branch or Antonio Johnson AND Nick Herbig? Jordan Addison or Tyler Scott AND Cedric Tillman? Unless the staff has a super high grade on a guy (top 5) and he falls in their lap at 15, trade down.

    What's a "news-paper"?
  21. Oxy
    As someone who has been critical of the "articles" on the new site, I have to say that I like these recap game articles, they are very well done. Thanks.

    Why would TS tweet that? Booo. I'd rather hold out as late as possible for a high return and risk retirement. The cap hit lessens after June 1st, and there is no way the NY media will be patient enough to let the Jets wait that long.

    The drama here has been 100% media driven. What is Matt Ryan's status next year? He's got more career yards thrown than Rodgers and is a likely future HOFer... are there reporters both hounding him AND the Colts daily about what is going to happen next year? It's not like it's July...
  24. Oxy
    So, after all of this, I can only assume that ARod will lead the Vikings' to a great season in '25, only to catastrophically fail in the postseason?

    I thought his point was the wishi-washi-ness of the Packers communication to all these guys that was annoying, not the fact that the Packers moved on from them.
