Chart interpretation help
I still don’t know how to read these cool charts. What do I search for or where can I learn what these mean?
Sorry if this is a redundant/bothersome post—it’s my first time at LL.

Thank you
very much! I’ve often wondered about these….

There's always been a link underneath the chart

Oops
I missed that.
I also can’t find how to interpret the picture of the grim-looking man who appears periodically. ;)

That is feigned-shock man*
which I imagine is why it’s dispersed throughout the graph…the continued offensive struggles are very frustrating but entirely predictable sans line-up changes.
*He may have been christened with another name, but really, it’s not important enough to remember. Sorry.
I want to light every team members blood on fire.
It might be in their veins, it might not. I’m gonna play this one by ear. GAWD.
Hard work never killed nobody, but I won't take my chances.

Milton Bradley apologist

I am curious exactly HOW the M's can fix the offense
and still keep the model the team is based on. There are going to be very few outstanding defenders with an adequate or better bat available for the M’s to go out and grab. Outside of pulling off a deal for Agon, where exactly does the help come from?
JD’s like, "you want some fucking pitching? Here’s all the pitching you can stand. Now choke on it, bitches!"- RCCook
awesome SN btw
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.
A league average left fielder would push Bradley to DH and keep Griffey and Sweeney out of the lineup.
It doesn’t need to be AGon. It needs to be someone with above the combined sub-500 OPS of Griffey/Sweeney/Byrnes.
FUCK THE ANGELS!

Z is going to have to make some sort of move soon
because I think the fans are going to start seeing Sweeney as more of a waste of space than some great clubhouse guy.
2010 Safeco Field Record: 0-0 ; Overall Safeco Field Record: 10-4
Fun fact! Doug Fister is so awesome if you look up his name on google images you actually get pictures of Doug Fister!
With safe search off!
You got slurved!

Why wouldn't you include the Doug?
That’s his name.

For God's sake don't forget the U in Doug.

Hopefully Byrnes at least will get canned
That kind of sheer stupidity and his awful hitting throughout shouldn’t be rewarded.
It's too bad, he had to be so terrible at offense.
I actually liked him despite his awfulness but I want a winning team, not a team of guys I like or feel bad for. That bike story though just makes me love him.
Would it be better to see him used in a straight LF platoon before giving up on his bat?
Or is he done?
Well, as we now know, he's done.
But a straight LF platoon with Langerhans and Milton DH’ing would’ve been lovely!
Reason for optimism?
Guti had some good at bats after an attrocious couple days. Glad to see he didn’t panic and just stayed patient.
Knew as soon as the Rangers got a runner to second in the ninth that this would be a loss
Didn’t even watch the rest. I’m surprised they didn’t lose it in the 9th.
Just a frustrating, frustrating series.

I would have preferred Hannahan, but it seems like the team wants him to get more at-bats.
At least now he’s cleared to get work at short in Tacoma.
I'm still pissed that we're stuck with the Ken Sweeney Jr. experiment
But you gotta start somewhere
I don't think this change makes us better.
If Griffey is still our starting DH against RHP, Langerhans won’t get any more playing time than Tui. This basically installs Sweeney as the perma-DH vs LHP.
Yes, hopefully Bradley gets more playing time as DH with one of the present "DH"s losing time
And Langerhans can fill in at LF.
Any change is good for me at this point.
For one thing, at least it establishes the fact that they’ll make changes, even if the changes are not per se the ones I would suggest.
