I think today's game is a good example for the "which is more important, runs scored or OBP" debate...most people argue that OBP is a more important stat, and that a high OBP leads to runs and that a low OBP doesn't...I'm not so sure that Bannister and the Brewers would agree with that side of the argument...Bannister allowed 11 baserunners in 5 innings with only 1 run allowed (WHIP of 2.2, ERA less than 2)...and the Brewers had 17 batters reach base but only 3 crossed the plate (2 of them from a HR)...

All the same I'd prefer Bannister not try that ever again...

vtmet, one game is a small sample size. I'd wager that a team with a higher OBP is going to score more runs than a team with a lower OBP over a course of a season.

EGG-Xactly! (see how I got that Easter reference in) Runs scored may be the more "important" stat but, to a large extent, RS is merely a function of OBP (combined with SLG and a few other things). In the short run weird things like allowing 2+ base-runners per inning like Bannister did might only result in a scant amount of runs but you wouldn't want to walk that tight-rope too often. And it's ditto for batters. Reyes might score a bunch of runs w/a lousy OBP but a lot of other things have to go right (good SB pct, good backup hitters) in order for that to happen and, even then, it's almost certain that he'd score even more runs with a better pct.

I think yesterday's game was a good example of how great a pitcher Jorge Julio is. He gave up a shot, sure, but he buckled down, got the outs he needed and didn't give up any runs. We should move him to closer.

Julio is showing that my sarcastic remark might not have been as sarcastic as I thought.

Jose Reyes vs Mike Piazza: 0 for 14;

You're assuming Piazza is paying the slightest attention when he's not gripping a bat.

Career vs. Bobby Cox: 274/294/414

What the fuck. Can we have one thread without a battle of Does Piazza Suck or Not? Just one?
|
| Frayed Knot Apr 23 2006 03:01 PM |

All threads lead to Piazza.

These aren't necessarily GOOD stats, so maybe this is the wrong thread to post in, but I was having some fun with BP's new customizable stats and thought I'd share.

Those DP numbers are the most interesting.

I'm not sure how we got along before Rotty came around.
|
| Frayed Knot May 03 2006 01:23 PM |

So, if I'm reading Seo's stats correctly, Matsui has (in fewer innings) handled more chances, had more assists, more putouts, and turned more DPs with a better zone rating and range factor than AndyHandy.

You are all just fooling yourselves. This team is going to fold like a cheap tent in a Northeaster. This short period of success is just setting you up for an even bigger disappointment than usual. You can comfort yourselves with useless satistics and win - loss records all you like, but I tell you there is no way this cheap ass organization of incompetents will ever be anything more than a second rate pretender. You are all being duped out of your hard earned money by an ownership that cares only about extracting as much money from you as they possibly can by fielding a team with the illusion of competitiveness. Consider yourselves warned, this team sucks and your koolaid induced stupor has blinded you to the truth.

To Bobby? Possibly, but I doubt it. Bobby is a Venezuealn native. Michel is from Cuba.

I keep telling Michel to come back to earth, but he isn't having it.

Here's one your can drool over, puke over, or likely dismiss, but the Mets have a pitcher placing first, second, and third in OPS:

April 2006 (31 K in 39.3 IP) is just the second time since June 2000 (31 K in 39 IP) that Glavine struck out over 30 batters in a month.

Hardball Times has their WS up & running. Nothing too shocking, IMO. Beltran's behind only Abreu & Lee, despite missing some time. Delgado's behind only Pujols & Berkman. Glavine's been the best SP in the NL so far. Petey's lower than I would have thought, but he HAS given up some runs. Wright's behind only Ensberg, and is tied with Encarnacion & Cabrera. Sanchez & Wagner have been among the best relievers. Floyd & Matsui are bad and Lima is atrocious. LoDuca's been solid.
