Wakamatsu said the decision not to play Griffey was "more in fairness to Mike Sweeney,’’ who as a right-hander creates a better matchup against Johnson. Wakamatsu said Griffey will play the next two games, including going against Barry Zito on Sunday.

“It was a tough decision not to play him but I have to worry about the whole team,’’ Wakamatsu said.

No Griffey vs. Randy Johnson but Griffey vs. Barry Zito?

What?

Well never mind then.

Barry Zito is somehow worse against lefties.

I disagree with that decision, but I guess from a managerial standpoint you have to try and do what gives us the best chance to win

Was really looking forward to seeing Griffey vs. Randy though

In fairness to Griffey...

…maybe they could use him as a pinch hitter every now and then. It seems like if Wak’s going to be a stickler for platoon advantage, he ought to take Sweeney out late in games when he’s facing a RHP.

by gregrabble on May 22, 2009 8:42 PM PDT up reply actions  

This is debatable.

They way I think of it, clutch hitting obviously exists, but the ability to be a clutch hitter might not. Someone might have a year where they get a ton of huge hits (Ortiz in 2004), and he’s labeled “clutch” for life, even if the rest of his career he hits pretty much the same in clutch situations as he does in low-pressure ones.

Dave Cameron pointed out in an earlier thread

that A-Rod has statistically earned his chocker label.

by Poochie on May 22, 2009 8:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

Is this because the sample size is now big enough?

I don’t doubt that clutch hitting (and the opposite) resides in some people. it’s just hard to pinpoint it, and it gets emotional and often illogical when you try to.

by Teej on May 22, 2009 8:48 PM PDT up reply actions  

I think to discount the notion of clutch hitting is to discount human psychology

but at the same time being a good clutch hitter doesn’t morph you into Superman if there’s a runner on second and two outs.

by Poochie on May 22, 2009 8:48 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yes.

A player’s skills do not suddenly increase in the bottom of the ninth inning.

by .Taylor on May 22, 2009 8:48 PM PDT up reply actions  

Absolutely the opposite for me.

I spent the late 90s being in love with baseball before the entire sabremetrics thing reached public consciousness (Moneyball came out in 2002, right when I lost interest in it). But I’d been in the goddamned dark ages about what actually wins baseball games that whole time, and I would’ve enjoyed the game immensely more if I could have actually told someone why Mike Cameron, my favorite player of all time, was a borderline MVP candidate, which he was during his time in Seattle.

It all comes down to coming as closest as possible to learning what TRULY wins baseball games.

by Decatur on May 22, 2009 8:39 PM PDT up reply actions  

Exactly.

It’s that sort of thinking that could have saved Bill Bavasi. People often ask themselves the wrong questions in analyzing a player. For example, Bavasi ought to have investigated why Carlos Silva was so successful, and to what degree said success was affected significantly by external, uncontrollable factors; in other words, how effective were Silva’s raw pitching skills?

by .Taylor on May 22, 2009 8:42 PM PDT up reply actions  

No kidding.

Their problem lay in their choice of statistics. Bavasi accredited Silva’s low ERA and low walk rates to his success. But he seemed to miss that the guy couldn’t buy a strikeout. And that the M’s defense was extremely sub-par, while Silva was a contact pitcher.

Surely not.

But you’re talking a lot so you get the responses. :)

tRA was created by Graham. StatCorner.com has a good explanation of it. It really makes a lot of sense if you think about it. It tries to get rid of a lot of the defensive context and just look at what a pitcher can control (strikeouts, walks, line drives, groundballs, and so on).

It’s a pretty saber-happy site.

He most certainly is.

His tRA+ was 130 last year and he was worth between 5.3 wins. Fangraphs has him at 3.8 wins last year, as measured by FIP. Either way, that’s a pretty legit ace season. He’s only been screwed by the home run rate this year, but his strikeout numbers are still good.

This is the front-page review from imdb.com
Bottom line, this movie is unwatchable.

I have no sympathy or connection to the lead actress in this movie and it is unbearable to watch a film where the main character has no personality. This movie was boring, treacherous to sit through and is embarrassing for all parties involved in the creation of this utter waste of time. I am always glad to see horrible movies fail, this is no exception. It proves you actually need talent to make some money in the movie industry.

Don’t waste your time. This should also be rated PG-13, there really isn’t anything sexual about it, just a few boring people talking to each other.

Was it this bad?

Nowhere near that bad.

Just thoroughly banal. Were it not for the non-linear editing of scenes it would have been a thoroughly humdrum story. Sasha Grey is a fairly terrible actress, though.
