    Even George Washington let black people on his team you fucking nitwit.

    Outs at Home 2017

    In every situation there was a man on second and a man on third. Limiting to just bases loaded would have reduced the sample to one. I worded it carefully. 4/26, Vogt absolutely forced the error. 4/30 was poor defensive positioning that Odor took advantage of, but he would have been safe even...

    Is Bogaerts getting a pass?

    @SmittyonMLB is a hack who has to take a photo of the word doc he typed some numbers into to show splits. Bogaerts June 24, 2016 through July 6, 2017 (the night he got hit on the wrist): 275/339/421 (760 OPS), 147 ISO, 99 wRC+, 7.8% BB, 18.7% K Bogaerts since July 6, 2017: 176/243/206 (449...

    Outs at Home 2017

    Perhaps of interest, there were six times in 2016 in the AL where the situation was the same as Nuñez's boner: men on 2nd and 3rd, less than two outs, sacrifice fly to LF, runner scores and runner tries to advance to third. In 2016, the runner was safe at third five of six times: 4/26: Top 4...

    Tyrone wants to fire Farrell

    My mistake, I thought this had become the thread where we discussed garbage posting.

    Tyrone wants to fire Farrell

    Can you point us to some of your posts with research as examples to give us a better sense of what makes for good mainboard material? I was trying to look through but all I saw was some emoji reactions and a bunch of sarcastic one-liners about how bad the manager is.

    Outs at Home 2017

    Making outs on the bases makes it less likely that you'll score a run. In baseball, the team that scores the most runs wins the game.

    Outs at Home 2017

    Given that there's no correlation b/w extra bases taken and outs on the bases, you can divide teams into four groups along two axes: above/below average in extra bases taken ("aggressive" or "safe") and above/below average in outs made on the bases ("stupid" or "smart"). Most teams move around...

    Outs at Home 2017

    There's an assumption that being aggressive (i.e., taking extra bases) should also lead to more outs on the bases, and the Red Sox have just decided it's worth being more aggressive. Looking at data for outs on the bases and extra bases taken since 2013 in the AL, this is actually not the case...

    The Dodgers [s]are[/s]were really, really good(?)

    Garcia, Moyer and Sele were ranked 2nd, 8th and 11th in FIP- in the AL among qualified starters. Wood, Darvish and Maeda are 3rd, 17th, and 22nd (if they qualified) among NL starters. The Mariners had the #1 bullpen in the AL by ERA, K/9 and WHIP, and #2 by K/BB. That's not counting Joel...

    Who's on Third? I don't know

    From 2007-2015 (limited by Lahman's DB), there were 368 relief pitchers who switched from the AL to the NL or vice versa. Mean K/9: AL: 7.33 NL: 7.55 diff: -0.22 Mean WHIP: AL: 1.64 NL: 1.58 diff: 0.06 Mean HR/9: AL: 0.14 NL: 0.12 diff: 0.02 (Note: each player is treated as a single sample...

    Bullpen 2017

    No, every win is also not a loss. If the Red Sox had two more wins, they'd be 39-27, tied for first in the AL East.
