2011 MLB Regular Season Gameday Thread

Walkoff HR for Inge, lmao.
That's when you know your team is on fire.

That was awesome. When it was 2 outs, I was thinking that we're just going to play for extras and get it done in the 10th or so, but didn't even come to that. 8 straight. The best time to be hot.

 

[elcheato]

Alex White keeps getting lit up with the Rockies.. Positives. Pomeranz debuts tomorrow tho but I don't think he's ready. They just want him to pitch some where and the minor league regular season is over.

Cano better win a gold glove this year

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

That was an awesome game to be at! Great game, that was a lot of fun. 8 in a row!

 

[NV]

Damn son, Posada behind the plate

 

[NV]

And Posada guns down Kendrick! Even though the tag by Cano was very nice it's still great to see Posada throw someone out.

 

[Elite]

Poetic fucking justice.

 

[NV]

Granderson really beginning to fuck up his chances at winning MVP.

 

[NV]

Uhhhhh yankees? Wanna score?

 

[Teagz]

Tigers win 8 in a row, magic number is 9 so amped right now!

 

[Mexi]

Granderson really beginning to fuck up his chances at winning MVP.

how? was he pitching to Bautista?

 

[Mexi]

i cant believe the Dodgers are .500 right now
pretty amazing the roll they're on. too bad the DBacks have literally won every single game during the Dodgers streak too so we gained no ground. could have been interesting if the DBacks would stop overachieving

oh well. next year


hopefully this run allows us to stay above .500 when the season ends
could that help Kemp's chances at MVP?
Kershaw I think is in the lead, but I'm not assuming it's his to lose

LOL!

Cano has a -4.3 UZR, Pedroia has a 16.3 UZR

It isn't even close

 

[Elite]

It's a good thing UZR is meaningless. GMs don't use it.

 

[Mexi]

using UZR for one season is way too small a sample size
you need a few years, and thats still not enough of a sample size

 

[bosoxlover12]

You are such a retard.

How do you think they judge a defender? By seeing how many Web Gems he had?

UZR is the defensive rating in baseball, if you think UZR is meaningless when categorizing defenders, you need to leave now.

 

[elcheato]

So you're telling me Marlon Bryd is a better defensive center fielder then Austin Jackson because of his higher UZR? For some reason I don't buy that..

To use only one stat, is flawed, especially when you're not backing it up and just throwing it out.

Why is it never because the DBacks are a solid, good, team? They're always overachieving...

they are solid. they deserve to be in 1st

but they're still overachieving
they arent Padres 2010 overachieving, but they still are

they kinda remind me of last year's Reds
only I trust Kennedy/Hudson more than who the Reds were starting
