Some other good stats that I should point out; BABIP (Batting average on Balls in Play) - .283 Outs - 874. Most teams are in the higher 800's or low 900's. Jermaine Dye - BA/RISP - .095 Paul Konerko - BA/RISP - .184 Aaron Rowand - BA/RISP - .385 Leading Runs Created player - Joe Crede with 17. The lowest of our starters would be Pierzynski with 8 and Dye with 6. Scott Podsednik has hit 2.4 groundballs for 1 flyball. IIRC, this was a major problem for him in Milwaulkee last season. Chris Widger is the leading Gross Production Average player at .305. Next best is Joe Crede with .269. Paul Konerko has a 19% chance of hitting a home run every fly ball. RC - Runs Created. Invented by Bill James, RC is a very good measure of the number of runs a batter truly contributed to his team’s offense. The basic formula for RC is OBP*TB, but it has evolved into over fourteen different versions. We use the most complicated version, which includes the impact of hitting well with runners in scoring position, and is adjusted for ballpark impact. GPA - Gross Production Average, a variation of OPS, but more accurate and easier to interpret. The exact formula is (OBP*1.8+SLG)/4, adjusted for ballpark factor. The scale of GPA is similar to BA: .200 is lousy, .265 is around average and .300 is a star.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 14, 2005 -> 04:02 PM) As usual? Seems to me that we've been very good about "getting them over". That's why we are playing at .750 clip. The White Sox are hitting .237 with runners in scoring position. We have scored the American League Average in runs scored though, although this was the AVG thru game of the 11th.

Dang it I was hoping for Natalie Portman or Elisha Cutbhert.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ May 14, 2005 -> 03:24 PM) Isn't it better to have essentially a guarantee 3 when you get down inside the 25 than to have a guy that can kick it 55 yards but can't make s***? But you want to be scoring TD's, not FG's when you get in the red zone anyways.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ May 14, 2005 -> 03:09 PM) f***in' work Hopefully FG is teh manz and he is like, biznatchlez, shut the f*** up and sit the f*** down mofos I'll swap ya for the time difference.

QUOTE(SuperSteve @ May 14, 2005 -> 08:31 AM) Craig is on the DL. For 6 to 8 weeks with a finger injury. He's hit for hardly no power this year with 1 HR in 25 games, but he's only making $3,000,000 and look at these splits. .296/.436/.395 Quite extrodinary, he's hitting .167/.542 at home, .373/1.002 away.

QUOTE(danman31 @ May 14, 2005 -> 02:19 PM) Barmes hit 2 HRs for my fantasy team. Mine too. Best fantasy selection with Brian Roberts.

QUOTE(rafacosta @ May 14, 2005 -> 12:37 PM) Where is Die??? He was clutch! I see you're back in the swing of things already Rafa.

Good to see Buerhle pitch a little better in a night game. Tads, Pods and Paulie come through tonight to get the job done.

DBAH0's 2005 Game Thread Record. 2-0. That is all.

LMAO. Someone from the crowd yells out "Watch out for the changeup" to Tejada.

Beautiful Forkball.

Billingsley is going to be a good one.

Someone yelling out in the crowd before that K; "C'mon rookie, C'mon Rookie"

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ May 14, 2005 -> 05:57 AM) Really? Because nobody is worse than Paul Edinger. We needed to do something, anything. I just posted that because I wanted to see people's reactions. But seriously on Brian, anything further out than 40yards, he's going to struggle to make.

Adam Scott's better.

Dye u idiot. My PTC Uribe would have been up with bases loaded. ARRRRGGGHHHH!!!

Isn't Everett hitting like .350 against lefties thus far this season?

Bases loaded for Willie. Oh boy.

Wow Kline has been struggling thus far this season.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 14, 2005 -> 12:10 PM) Dead f***ing sucks. COuld he be any more of a rally killer than he already is??!?? f*** At least it wasn't a double play.

Kline coming in to face A.J.

That sucked.

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 14, 2005 -> 12:07 PM) Was there ever any doubt? 4-3 white sox on a konerko single. LOL. Let's put the game away now.

Bases loaded for Paulie. Here we go.
