QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:49 PM) Until that. We need to get some big, clutch hits going. BA is the absolute perfect candidate right here, nice linedrive hitter he could put one in a gap.

This is good baseball by the offense right here.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:42 PM) I just showed his translated stats compared to Buehrle's. If anything, Buehrle's headed down the bad road considering he's not a strikeout pitcher, and he couldn't hit the ocean if he was living on a boat near the coast of Hawaii. So you want to trade a pitcher who you think sucks for another pitcher who is currently sucking and only going to get worse that's cool. Take a look at Willis' year by year stats, his K/9, K/BB, WHIP, ERA, BABIP anything you want, his future is going to be full of Hideo Nomo comparisons and I don't want any part of that. You want Willis and don't want Buehrle that's your whole thing. I really could care less.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:38 PM) Translated stats takes into account ballpark effects IIRC and leagues. I didn't even look at the stats mainly because I don't need to. Dontrelle is headed down a bad road and his stats are fine evidence of it. I have no use for him but whatever.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:28 PM) I'm pretty sure you could guess who's who. BTW, the better one is 24 National League, in a pitchers park. Yeah that's great, you can compare numbers as of right now all you want, it's fairly evident that Willis is going down the Nomo path right now. If you want to trade Buehlre for Willis more power to ya, it can be your new kick.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:21 PM) Yes, yes he is. And unlike Buehrle, even when he's hitting not hitting locations, he could actually still get outs. Buehrle's just providing more evidence on why Strikeout pitchers > Location Pitchers. Have you checked his stats/watched him pitch at all this year? He has a near 4 ERA, 1.42 WHIP 86K/44BB (horrible) and .282 BAA. WTF is good about that? He's doing all that in a giant pitchers park. He is not good.

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:18 PM) sigh... is this 4 spiff starts in a row now? 5

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:18 PM) But you guys still wouldn't trade Buehrle for a Willis or anyone else for that matter, correct? Dontrelle Willis is not a good starting pitcher.

I'm really really really worried about this team.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:14 PM) Kevin Mench would sure look good in LF for the Sox. But who would strikeout looking and get picked off at the top of the order?

"good throw by Podsednik" - Darrin Jackson give me a fishing break.

Scott Podsednik has negative arm strength.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:07 PM) But Everett is better. Maybe in your mind but in the world of baseball Everett is not very good at all.

That sucked to high hell.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:04 PM) It's not completely Ozzie's fault. He doesn't acquire stiffs like Widger, Mack, Cintron, et. all. Everett and Blum woulda been better. But I agree he plays the B team too much. Yes, Mackowiak and Cintron are stiff. This makes sense.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 08:04 PM) Joe looks a little late on a FB up and in. 45% of our runs have came on the HR. ANyone know what the % was last year? Probably about the same. Not a good AB right there.

Jermaine Dye now has 40 walks on the season.

Why that was a mighty nifty DP right there.

Solidico

Buehrle walking hitters is not a good sign.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 07:51 PM) I think Thome enjoyed seeing those 15 pitches thrown to the first 2 guys. There you go Mark, there's your lead. Now lets just hope that he doesn't return the favor.

Heh, he fell.

That was impressive.

15 pitches now for Wasdin.

Atleast he's working the count. And he lifts the ball in the air.
