How about he was recovered from the injury. If he comes all the way back to his previous level of play is another story. Besides it's very possible his decreased stuff was due to the elbow issues. He was having them for a while. He may have been overthrowing trying to come back from the shoulder.

Ventura started his career 0 for 45 or something like that. This with consistent playing time. Its tough for a young player to do well with inconsistent playing time. It's not a good sign but I wouldn't write him off yet.

Odds are good.

I don't think so. He looked recovered from that. I think it's just the UCL reconstruction.

I think it depends on the status of the team and minor league system. They have a really top heavy system that should produce at least 5 or 6 MLB players to add to the team. This allowed them to draft a bunch of high school players which typically take longer to develop. As opposed to when they didn't have much talent in the system and needed players relatively quickly.

There is always that 15%.

It should make for an interesting arbitration case.

9-12 months from surgery is the usual rehab. So he should be available for the second half of the year. As far as letting him walk, who knows.

I disagree they are essential. I do think they are a good idea though.

Instead of running correlation stats run a multiple stepwise regression. It will give you the predictive value of each variable when built upon the other.

Not bad either, a big Beatles fan I am as well. (said in my best yoda voice) I think for pure walkup intensity though, I go with dirty magic.

My votes for the walkup are Dirty Magic, Magic Man or Magic Carpet Ride.

Getting through 5 innings and keeping the team in it seems to be the goal of all pitchers now except for the very best.

With the strict guidelines for concussions, these really aren't much of a part of this study. As it said it's more for things like sprained ankles and other musculoskeletal injuries.

I was actually participated that study. None of its surprising. The power of the NCAA coach is pretty high with the money they bring in. However, it was a very subjective study with the questions of feeling pressured especially when the athlete still didn't play. Having the strength and conditioning group report to the AT instead of the coach will be an interesting dynamic if the suggestions are passed and it actually occurs.

cooper cant throw strikes in pressure situations. he sucks. but cooper has a 2.26 era against everyone other than the Cubs this year.

I have no idea what could possibly baseball related. Short of getting hit hit with the ball it's not game related.

There you go. This is the lip we know and love. Slam the team after a sweep of a double header.

You were looking at fy18 and didn't include the support or the contractual, which still only brings it up to 50% which is low. Look at fy19. Faculty is up to 52% plus contractual brings it up to about 70%. My only experience is with Illinois schools but they tend to be in that area when you look at all of the line items related to faculty, adjunct, lecturers and lab assistants etc.

he should. he way over throws it. it's either high or he holds on to it too long and it's in the left batters box.

he will start the season with the Sox.

no. its 9-12. he will be healthy but why activate him for a few games.

I know this is a Burger thread and not Burdi but it says in the article that he tore a ligament near his patella. If this is accurate than he probably didn't tear the patella tendon discussed earlier but probably the medial patella femoral ligament. That is really the only significant ligament there. This a an odd injury unless he dislocated his patella. They really have had bad luck with injuries.

I dont think it is as drastic as this. much of Mitchell's game was based on speed. a posterior tib tear is much more devastating to any player than an achilles issue but especially for one reliant on speed. burger was never going to rely on speed it's like when Ventura fractured and dislocated his ankle. the injury would have been devastating for a speed guy. with him you never knew the difference.
