whatever buddas

More evidence that Manuel is a MORON:

 

1) Wrights stats @ Comerica

career: 2.42 era, 22ip - makes sense. Wright is a fly ball pitcher & they rule @ Comerica.

2k3: 3.86 era, 7ip

OBVIOUS CHOICE FOR opening the series vs DET.

 

2) Garlands stats @ Comerica:

career: 6.23 era, 17ip - makes sense. Garland is a ground ball pitcher & has less room for error @ Comerica.

2k3: 2.57 era, 6ip - proven that he's improved his control.

OBVIOUS CHOICE FOR starting SAT vs Moroth.

 

3) Loaiza stats @ Comerica:

career: 5.65 era, 14ip

2k3: 0.56 era, 7ip - obviously the New Loaiza rules.

 

4) Buerhle vs NYY:

Everyone knows how similar the Cell & Yankee stadium are.

So I'll take MB's 4.61 career era vs NYY & 3.68 career era @ the Cell over

walk me to the park Cotts any day of the year!

 

Now those are the #'s a REAL MAJOR LEAGUE MANAGER looks at!

 

We should have swept the NYY & should be 1 up on DET in this series.

:fyou MANUEL!

You look at the numbers way too much man. Dont overthink yourself, what happens in one game does not translate to all other games.

My name is Ross.

As Spiff said before, looking at his words then looking at his sig....it is a very amusing experience.

 

As for the Cotts/MB NYY debate...it was not a lock that Mark would have 110% won that game. He could have gotten lit up like he did yesterday. Granted it may have been better to save Cotts for a game against the Tiggers and let Mark pitch a harder game against the Yankees, but it's over now. So no matter how much b****ing there is about it; it is not going to change the facts that Cotts got rocked, Mark got rocked and we lost both games. Nothing is certain, that's why the games are played.

 

And if we are playing by the numbers, remember the game I believe it was in mid-August when we played the Royals at home. JM brought in Schoenweis because of the opponent .150 batting average. Schoenweis got rocked. The numbers matter but they are not infalliable because sometimes the pitcher just doesn't have it.

 

So any speculation as to if Mark would have won in NY and Cotts/Wright winning in Detroit is just that...speculation because nothing is certain.

yo apu, zach, 247 -

 

thank you!

 

Oh please! You debate like an infant. Of course everything in baseball is speculation.

The success rate of any ab is about 40% & that's if you're any good.

 

But there are numbers for which the odds tip the scale in a teams favor.

And even the odds makers agreed that Buerhle vs NYY on Thursday GREATLY improved the SOX chances of winning.

 

As for Cotts vs DET, Cotts had no business pitching against DET. Only a moron would deny Wright a start given his 2.42 era @ Comerica this year & 3.28 era @ Comerica over his career.
