5/7: Open Game Thread
Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners, May 7, 2008 7:10 PM PDT
I was planning to come home and talk about how already the losing has gotten to the point at which it's funny and no longer bothersome, but then I sat down, looked at my computer, and realized that I still have a lingering shred of hope tucked away somewhere in my brain that's yet to be destroyed, a shred that has thus far effectively hidden itself from the swarming hordes of crushing indifference. But I'm sure that shred will be taken care of in a timely fashion. Kind of like Anne Frank.

how much time do you have?
condensed version:
1. When the runner gets a good jump, the hitter almost always fouls off a pitch
2. That pitch is usually a ball
3. Hitters hack at terrible pitches, reducing the odds they can direct the ball where they want
4. Mac does it with sub-optimal runners
by Matthew on May 7, 2008 7:23 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
so this team
would be better served playing station to station ball?
I agree that hit and runs shouldn’t be done with everyone… but the Ichiro Lopez combination would be the one I wouldn’t complain about.

So here's something interesting
Adrian’s AVG and SLG are pretty much the same as ‘07, but his OBP is way way up, buoyed by a quite increased walk rate, of which all but one or so are non-intentional.
