I can't see anything in that picture,
but god would it be fun to see two teams compete against one another in a snowball fight.
Well this game is rained out, but Tacoma's playing.
Jeff Clement is playing 1B tonight.
Russ Branyan can hit left-handers!

I find the implicit assumptions of this WPA chart to be delightful.

Thanks White Sox.
Per Baker:
Game 1: Chris Jakubauskas vs. Bartolo Colon
Game 2: Felix Hernandez vs. John Danks
Well that's stupid of them

I'm not sure I like this
We went from having almost a sure fire win in game 2 to something far less sure. We straight up suck against left handers this year let alone a darn good one.
The way I look at it the Sox went from having a surefire split to not being guaranteed either
I’d take the split, when I’d argue the Mariners still have the overall advantage right now

We're 4-1 against lefthanded starters

Over 167 PAs.
That’s not much of a sample size. Certainly not enough to argue that the .190/.234./250 team line for RH batters against LHP is legitimate. It’s a fluke, once Beltre and Lopez start hitting you’ll see that line turn around. Reverse platoon splits for hitters are pretty much a myth.
I'm sure you're right, we'll eventually regress to the mean
I was just throwing it out there that we’ve struggled so far against leftys and John Danks has been pretty darned good so far(lefty or not)
Game 1: Chris Jakubauskas vs. Bartolo Colon
Together, they make the number 10!
the offseason sucks

Well played sir.
Although I doubt know if Colon fat jokes are dead memes.

Just a heads up, section331 is a lady.
She knows what we’re about, and she can take what we dish out. That’s not easy.
I don't know if I would call myself a "lady", but your mileage may vary...
And I have yet to see anyone make a Colon joke, but since I’m relatively new, that means nothing…
the offseason sucks
Oh yes it definitely worked.
I just am not sure if it applies to all fat jokes or just Silva and Vidro.

I don't think the problem is with fat jokes per se
Most of the time the point of dead meme’ing stuff isn’t so much about the content as it is how creative the jokes that arise from that content are. It’s an effort to get people to not go for the easy joke, and most fat jokes are too easy to the point of not being funny. But if someone puts some thought into it and comes up with a good one that’s probably okay.

That contract is going to be hilarious when he can't physically play defense anymore
and also can’t hit for beans.

Are you drunk
or just in an overly hate-my-horrible-NL-team mood?
by appleshampoo on Apr 27, 2009 8:49 PM PDT up reply actions
The latter.
I haven’t had a drink of anything alcoholic in half a month. Drunk-posting is for squares, anyway.
No, I’m just feeling the agony over this crappy team I ought to learn not to care about.

Since when are people allowed to have a second team because they're in the opposite league
by JI on Apr 27, 2009 9:06 PM PDT up reply actions
At certain moments I begin to feel like I'm living vicariously through you
Because at least your other team is playing out of its mind right now.
And Pujols. My god, I wish I could reasonably claim to root for a team with an everyday talent like Pujols.

If you think the Cardinals are my second team you are making false assumptions.
by JI on Apr 27, 2009 9:21 PM PDT up reply actions
Where did I say that the Cards were your "second" team?
I chose my words carefully.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
I suppose you are correct
even thought it seemed it was implied
by JI on Apr 27, 2009 9:27 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm so confused
Does this mean the Cards are your first team? Why do you hang out here then, not being a Seattlite?
Note: I am indeed drunk posting, so the logic of this thread may have eluded me.

Because conversing with other Cardinal fans
will make you want to drive a spike through your head.
Stupid 10 pin - Thingray
They'll have the DH in the NL by August? Awesome.
Nice Guys Finish Third - Hopelessly lost, but makin' good time.
I hope somebody garrotes Joel Hanrahan with his own stringy entrails.

And he voids his bowels during his death throes, for one final humiliation.

So who's getting the handy in that picture?
Can’t quite tell
I want to poop at your house - Thingray
The slowest day I've had at work in about 9 months and the Mariners just had to be rained out. Argh!
You can't hide from the omnipresent eye.
Is the guy in the middle touching the guy on the right's junk?
Hard work never killed nobody, but I won't take my chances.
A 0.0 WPA for Yuni!
Finally we have found what it takes to get average defense from our SS.

Thank you.
