2011 MLB Regular Season Gameday Thread

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Ellsbury has been amazing. Can't go wrong with either Ellsbury or Pedroia, but right now, I'd probably take Ellsbury.

Manny Acta's flawless coaching continues with this lineup. Jason Kipnis gets HOT, lets sit him for 2 days straight.. He needs to try keeping the same lineup every night, I think it would help the team a lot.

 

[elcheato]

He's hurt

Certainly not a good start to this game for Fister, fuck.

I don't think Jo Jo Reyes is gonna keep the Tigers down for long lol

 

[RipCity32]

I'd hope not lol. I'd rather not start a game down 2-0 though, cause you never know lol.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

I think Ellsbury is kinda of your darkhorse MVP.

 

[elcheato]

David Huff was pitching great into the 3rd inning, lowered his ERA to 0.47, and now we're in a rain delay <_<

He sure did hold the Tigers down...

 

[RipCity32]

Fucking bullshit.

 

[elcheato]

Not raining anymore, Indians post pone there game, and now they have like 5 rain outs to make up in September..

Ellsbury will come in 4th

The sooner the season ends, the more Bautista seems to be falling into 3rd

Pedroia and Gonzalez are fighting eachother for the top spot. Pedy may steal his 2nd MVP.


And what people don't realize, is that Youk is actually in the conversation for
MVP. He will finish in 6th or 7th most likely. Boston's 1-5 is the best in baseball.

Youk is 6th in the AL in WAR, stfu.

EDIT: sorry he fell to 7th

And the voters don't look at WAR, as evidenced by last year's voting. In the AL, Hamilton did lead the league in WAR when he won, the rest of the voting doesn't fall in line with WAR rankings.

 

[NV]

Look at Bautista's numbers, he's the MVP

 

[bosoxlover12]

Hamilton was 3rd in WAR, 1st in average, slugging, ops, and 2nd in obp lol

 

[NV]

Hamilton was 3rd in WAR, 1st in average, slugging, ops, and 2nd in obp lol

Hamilton was first with an 8.7 WAR.

What website are you using? Fangraphs has him at #1 in all of baseball last season.

 

[VC15]
