How much do you care about Ks?
I care less if the player draws walks at a very high rate, provides plus defense at a premium position, or has exceptional power. If they strikeout a lot and do none of the above (Teahen), it could be concerning

Jordan Danks filling in at OF
QUOTE (stmorck @ Dec 11, 2009 -> 11:44 AM) What is everyone's thoughts about Jordan Danks coming to the major leagues in a big role. My thought is that would be both the worst thing we could simulateously do for Jordan and our team

Sox interested in Yanks' Brett Gardner
QUOTE (Kalapse @ Dec 10, 2009 -> 11:58 PM) Really? In 2008 when he put up his modest .291/.337/.461/.798 stat line, .350 wOBA and super elite 27.5 UZR/150 that placed him 3rd among RF with a 54.7 RAR. Drop that insane UZR to a more easily attainable mark and he's still around 4.4 in RAR which would be the 7th highest among all RF in 2009 and worth around ~$20M according to Fangraph's calculations. If he hits like he did in '08 and fields like he did in '06 then he's an incredibly valuable RF. Well, his statement followed an assumption that he averaged a .750 OPS. If he did, his runs above replacement from offense are zero or negligable. He would not provide us surplus value playing RF full time (using Fangraph's method) given his current guaranteed salary over that timeframe. I doubt it would make him the MOST overpaid RF in baseball, but yeah we would be paying him more than he's worth

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 5, 2009 -> 11:38 PM) I'm wondering why the producers felt it was a good idea to include every key moment in the trailer. To get your ass to buy a ticket

It's different trying to stop a no-huddle offense that's going to pass every play. They didn't stop Shipley from getting 20 yards on the first pass

Maybe. 2 minutes is too much time to give to a team in the college game that just needs a field goal. Take a chance and try to win the game with a calculated risk

Of course there's no guarantee you make it, but if you do, your chances to win the game increase dramatically

I wish Nebraska called a play action pass on their last 3rd down. If they got a first down they could've run that clock down

Thornton
QUOTE (qwerty @ Dec 2, 2009 -> 06:29 PM) I have no clue why i said howell was 25 being that he is 26. Simple mathematics must be beyond myself. I = t3h suX0rZ. Either way, a case can still be made for howell. Six years and a half years is too wide of a margin to simply discard. And he was used in higher leverage situations than Thornton

In the Bad Romance video, there are moments where she has "normal" makeup on and looks quite good. To me it seems like when she has a ton of makeup or weird masks on, she looks worse

Even in his age 42 season, his OBP was over 100 points and SLG over 70 points better than anyone from last years' Sox offense
