Why settle for nine innings of the Mariners when you can have more than nine innings of the Mariners?

Are Extra inning games worth it?

Is there any data out there that shows the effects on a team playing a prolonged extra inning game?

Is it always worth fighting for the win or at some point does the usage of pitchers become a detriment to the team?

I am interested.

I can't think of any studies off the top of my head

but any effect is likely to be less significant than the loss you incur by giving up in extra innings.

Riggleman doesn't want to send him to the plate until there are two outs.

That way when he hits a homer he won’t kill a rally.

Him and Hafner must be using each other as support to kick the roid habit.

For whom is he going to play in the ASG?

Or isn’t he nominated? I don’t know, are the nominations already published?

Based on what?

When he had crappy teams (see-Devil Rays) they stayed crappy. And his bullpen management was particularly great. How long was Bobby Ayala closer for?
