ok, for now i will. --- i ll touch on your underlined word to say that the definition of "baseball knowledge" i was using is this exact opposite of selective. by the way for this thread, please offer your opinion and basis for it, no need to take shots or convince people otherwise that you are right.

Words can't describe how bad I feel for Kaz Matsui

see that's not funny.

rulz, I am trying to think outside the box by catching a trend before it becomes,..you know, a statiscallly measurable trend. If this makes it a little easier to understand: These numbers and my "baseball knowledge" (ala ncaa selection commitee) tell me to be a little worried about rickie.

i said I buy the spring training argument -- only in part. The original intent of the thread was to generate opinions on whether or not his start was concerning. (I think, for the most part, it was successful returning these ideas) I updated the thread with current numbers and re-posted my worries. I go only to say that i think that rickies start to the season will be a huge factor in how his '08 numbers shake out.

updated stat line through 3-17-08 abs = 40 hits = 5 bbs = 3 ks = 20 - I mentioned that i was concerned after 23 abs. I hinted at why. After the way he finished in 2007, I am sure many of us think he can have a great 2008. For rickie to have a huge season, like all-star or in the top tier of offensive second basemen, i feel it is critical for him to come out hot. He has never started well in the majors. If he got out to a 10-25 start i bet it would do wonders for his confidence. Sample size sample size sample size, that is all i read here. tell that to a major leaguer who is hitting .125 with a 50 percent K rate. 5 hits. I'll buy the spring training argument to explain some of this futility away, but i can't wear the sample size blinders that most of you have on here. This is scary, i hope he can find a way to build some confidence before the season starts. I still believe he is capable of having a great season, but he had better start to get it going.
-
sorry but i acknowledged this was a tiny sample. I know its statiscally meaningless. its 10 k's in 23 abs and i feel it is not the start rickie needs. I will be really scared if he starts this season with 23 meaningless abs posting 10 k's.
-
nice, I like the way that chick worked it please pm with her digits. Like i mentioned, i understand sample size is only 23. but he has struck out 10 times and walked once.
-
To me it is. Here is what he has done, current of 3-10-08 ab hits total bases walks k's 23 4 6 1 10 The strike out to walk/ab ratio is really scary. I understand you could use "sample size" or the "its spring training argument" to explain this production away. I guess my point is to solicit opinions on whether or not you think this is an indicator of what is to come this season.

i couldn't agree with the thread title more, just leave the order alone ned. And for heavens sake please hit sheets in the nine hole.

Scott Spiezio a Troubled Dude (and out of work)
afeter replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
honestly the cardinals organization should have seen this coming Dying a sharpee-like goatee "victory red" was an obvious call for help. As a rule people who do extreme things to their noticeable appearance are trying to reach out. See b. spears' bald head, g. steismas mohawk, m.tyson's face tatt, on and on it goes. on a side note: be very weary of people who wear red shoes. -

Pretty good deal for his spot in the line-up. The nats one-upped the league, pulling a FA five hitter for 1.25. Fire Doug!
-
-I'll bet some of the current players on the rooster would take offense to being called 4 A ballers. While i do agree that the overall talent in the league is a bit watered down, to say that milwaukee can't support a big league club is ridiculous.

twice he pitched to pence when he didn't need too, and twice we paid for it. fool me once, fool me twice fool me again and again and again and again and again

i enjoyed your chorus. I have had this song in my brain since last night. It is helping me smile and bid adieu to a very painful season.
-
A long, long time ago I can still remember How the brewers used to make us smile And I knew that this was their chance to make it to the dance And make us fans happy for a while But july made us shiver With every blown lead they delievered More stupid moves by ned produced rage in the vent thread I can't remember if I cried When I realized this team had no pride but it still burned me deep inside The day the brewers died So bye, bye to the playoff chase Another losing season is about to take place Only hope for next season is left to embrace Singin' my heart ran out of space The day the brewers lost the race. --feel free to add the next verses.

i hope the brewers hitters can be patient with DD. This may not be a bad time to start counsell. I cna't believe i just typed that.
-
If someone had asked me at the beginning of the season if i'd be happy watching the brewers surrender an 8.5 game divison lead, blow 4 5-run leads in less than 4 weeks, and still be only one game out becuase the team is 2 games over .500, i don't think i'd have been jumping for joy.

i am still a fan

no. Leave hart alone

One poster stated it is crazy to suspend him 3 days for the altercation. Is there precedent for this length? Does MLB have a set of rules that govern these decisions? I watched the game, and Prince overreacted. Maybe it was the culmination of all the poor umpiring in the series but he went crazy. He was downright scary. In fact i was waiting for Prince to jack the guy. If this suspension is a bit longer than normal, maybe its becuase MLB also thought Prince was really close to doing something drastic. Obviously this is my subjective interpretation of how it unfolded. Other people may have viewed it as a normal baseball argument, but in my opinion it was really close to getting out of hand.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/law/08/14/preacher.slain/index.html this chick gets 5 months in jail for murdering her husband. Shooting him in the back. I know guys who have served more time for DUI. This is a travesty of justice. What a horrible precedent. If things are bad at home, go ahead shoot him -- five months later you will be out of jail.
