You know you are having a good year when your batting average drops to.317. On the other hand, you know you are not having a good year, when your average improves to .190.
On other topic, when will...

So, next roster move, DeVries for Pelfrey?

Hey, Hicks's got the average, he's got the strike outs, he's got the walks, all you add is the home runs and you've got an Adam Dunn with speed.

Summarizing; Worley: worse than expected. Pelfrey: considering he is on the way back from TJ surgery, as bad as expected, although improving. Expect a clunker from time to time, though. Diamond: more...

No. Doumit is a terrible catcher. Not little, a big one.

While many of the comments deal with Gardy's behavior, I am more concerned about how Dick Bremer and all the FSN crew were all over Hicks. Generally they don't do that if they are not channeling...

I know that FIP is not an experimental result, but is a coefficient calculated from results of at bats, that, obviously, you can take as results. So, even FIP does not carry an error in itself, it...

Interesting discussion. Related to this and the validity of parameters like BABIP, FIP, etc. Anybody knows if somebody has studied the error and variance in those parameters? For example, I have some...

I am just following Gameday. Is the strike zone as inconsistent as it shows here?

Well, after tonight may be we need two of DeVries, Gibson, Deduno, etc. In the case of Pelfrey, maybe is still the lack of control after surgery. But in the case of Worley, he says he is fine, but...

I am glad to see Levi Michael doing well in his return. If he gets going, the gloomy perspective for the middle infield can change quite a bit.

I agree that this could be a good team pretty soon. I don't like to use words like contender because that depends on a lot of things that are not under control. One key is health, especially health...

What a difference it makes when the pitching is not a complete disaster.

I am sure they thought Burnett would clear waivers, but it is not a big loss. He was sent down because other guys were better, and there are plenty of other options.

My hunch is that and the end of April, beggining ofMay Pelfrey is either rehabbing or in AAA (a la Liriano in his first year after TJ), and we have DeVries, Hendricks and Deduno up. Worley is not...

I have a basic disagreement on the subject that a leader has to be all outgoing, screaming, cheerleading. My best boss in my long years of work was areally quiet, shy guy. But he was a leader by...

I saw Pedro Hernandez pitching in the game on TV today. Not too bad. I don't think he is going to be with the Twins, but if they need an extra starter, he is an option (and he is lefty)

Hey, Italy is beating Canada. Great chance to make a splash and go to the next round. Now it is getting interesting.

It seems to me that what stringer bell is trying to sayis that, if you keep Duensing stretched to go more than one inning you could use him as a long reliever against a line-up that was prepared to...

Is it injury related? I hope not!

It is a really bad deal for Gardy, but from the institutional point of view, it makes perfect sense. You let the departing manager, take the "give away" season, and bring a new manager for the start...

I voted for Diamond not because I think is the best of the five, but because I think he is the least likely of the five to get injured.

No reason. I don't believe in creationism but there's no reason it can't exist alongside evolution because evolution doesn't even try to explain the formation of life, just what happens to it...

You obviously paid attention in biology class. Good post![/QUOTE]
Thanks, I make a living out of it.

Actually, I think I can put some light into how mutations occur. The enzymes that do the DNA copying and editing are nearly perfect but not exactly perfect. There is a certain degree of miscopying (I...
