July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 06:40 PM) But then we're stuck with no pitcher? i'd imagine they'd tried to ham and egg it through the end of the season. i don't think the torres story in the trib today was any coincidence.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 06:40 PM) But then we're stuck with no pitcher? There would have to be another deal in place - ala Myers. Or they're content throwing fodder out there until they find a 5th on the waiver wire.

Yeah...that's how it works ...
July 31, 201015 yr JimBowdenXMFOX Nats might be getting closer to Dunn deal.....stay tuned.....looking like Tigers are "out".....so has to be CWS or TB....my bet would be CWS Looking like Rizzo might have been using KW as a pawn to drive up Dunn's price to other potential suitors. Wouldn't doubt it if he always has had the intention of taking Jackson + prospects... but has just been trying to shoot for the stars ( ala Garza ). Still think he is a ****sucker ( that is cock... not tit or boobie ) Edited July 31, 201015 yr by hi8is
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Real @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:46 PM) sweet, an automatic loss out of the 5th spot for the rest of the year Lucas Harrell says hi.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:47 PM) Lucas Harrell says hi. He'll be saying bye his next start.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Real @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:46 PM) sweet, an automatic loss out of the 5th spot for the rest of the year We'll end up getting Zambrano and cash after he sails through waivers.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:47 PM) Lucas Harrell says hi. He can't come up for another 10 days.

Still think he is a ****sucker ( that is cock... not tit or boobie ) The Garza stuff was out there before he threw a no hitter. So I would say that Rizzo is serious about raiding a team.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:47 PM) Lucas Harrell says hi. His 5.8 FIP also says hi.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) He can't come up for another 10 days. I was getting at its not necessarily an automatic loss, as many thought last night would be.

July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 06:50 PM) His 5.8 FIP also says hi. What is the FIP statistic?
July 31, 201015 yr somewhat sox related from stark: If #Mariners trade Brandon League, doesn't look as if it's to #Rays. Hearing Tampa Bay unlikely to make another deal today. #trades
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:53 PM) What is the FIP statistic? A calculated prediction of what his ERA would be based on how many walks he gives up, balls are put in play, balls are hit in the air, etc. If his FIP is above his ERA, that's generally a single you expect his ERA to go upwards if he repeats the same performance.

Very cool.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:56 PM) Very cool.Oh, and it means "Fielding Independent Pitching".
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:53 PM) What is the FIP statistic? Fielding Independent Pitching. Formula - ((HR * 13) + ((NIBB + HBP) * 3) - (K * 2))/Innings pitched + 3.2 It measures all the things a pitcher can control and it is a very good indicator of future success (xFIP more so).
