I dunno
Better for the catcher and the guy in the batter’s box, but I don’t care how the ump smells if he’s making good calls.

How is everyone holding up today?
Yesterday was ugly, today is scary.
Joel is getting roughed up, it’s a tough day to be a pitcher with the ball carrying and the strike zone. Not that I’m defending Joel too much, he’s still getting roughed up.
Hey, better than signing Garland though.
Dan
Pitches are elevated because Pineiro is a bad pitcher. Not because he isn’t getting calls he got earlier in the game.

Wakefield agreed to a $4 million, one-year "rolling" contract extension that gives the Red Sox the ability to keep their longest-tenured player for the rest of his career.
wtf does that even mean, they basically can take him for 4 million any given year?
That’s robbery.

Thoughts on the Cards from BCB... pretty funny:
“This team is going to [do] more with less talent this year than any other team in baseball, only because it is demanded of them and nothing less is accepted. I give to you Exhibit A. As I write this little Fanpost, Yadier Molina stole second (yes, stole second), was advanced to third on a properly hit ball by Skip Schumaker, and driven in by some schmuck I have never head of. Like robots. "

Lung Cancer treatment costs around $24,000
Average SS pay out is $12,000 a year. So if smokes take 2 years off the life of a person than it saves the Federal Govt money.
I am much more concerned by the fact that tobacco has an inelastic rate of .8. So for every 10% increase in price of cig’s there is an 8% drop in sales. So with decreased sales it directly effects the states that use that revenue when they need it the most.

Less Cigarette Sales
Means less tax collected by the states for cigarette sales

Exactly
higher taxes + decreased sales = less money overall.
by Hardcore Legend on Apr 15, 2009 5:54 PM EDT up reply actions
Umm
A 10% increase in the price and an 8% drop in sales quantity is still an increase in tax revenue. What am I missing here?
Not afraid to nitpick
The new tax is a federal tax not an increase in state tax
So all the money goes to SCHIP not to states.

for 11 innings out of the bullpen in 2 games before a four game series in Chicago.
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

With his eye he’s a very tough out.

I know I'm gonna get the obligatory "it's early" (because it's sensible)
but anyone get the feeling that Ank is the clear 4th OFer in terms of talent right now?
he should be treated that way for now
Milt Thompson FTW!
I agree the hot hand should always be played
but this is me making an early projection.
Colby, Dunc, and Luddy will all have better seasons than Ank when it’s all said and done.
Raw athletic ability?
He’s probably 2nd. Putting it together? 4th.
by Hardcore Legend on Apr 15, 2009 5:53 PM EDT up reply actions
he really needs to make adjustments so his talent can shine.
but the simple fact is he hasn’t had the time in the minors to become a polished hitter.
if he doesn't start hitting
he will stay there, cause the kid is getting on base
Not 4th in terms of "talent."
The guy mashes. Let’s not throw him under the bus just because he’s in a slump. Every player has slumps.

The Cardinls have never gone to a World series in a year ending in 9. Every other year they have: 1930, 31, 42, 82, 43, 34, 44, 64, 85, 26, 46, 2006, 67, 87 , 28 & 68. But no 9s, Could this be the year?

But I don’t really think Albert gets too much of the credit there. I’m sure someone (probably Yadi) told him to throw to third, and Drew was out by a lot. Luddy gets the credit in my mind for hitting the cuttoff man right on money.
P.S. What the hell is Drew doing?

He could fully counteract the negative effects of bad bullpen outings….

I think the strategy on the first batter was a good one — throw it all over the place and see if you can catch those parts of the strike zone that are floating around in the vicinity.
Okay, I just got home (yay for THEREWILLBEBLOODWICK!!!)
Perez is in and Walters is pitching Friday? What kind of roster moves did I miss?

On a related note, I have decided to never sleep again.

that would require him getting the ball in the strike zone

no doubt.
but “He is snake bitten by the major leagues” “YP has no control at all” . . . there’s a difference between evaluating somebody’s performance and being alarmist.
five pitches is not his full story.

What a difference a game makes.
The offense was a juggernaut this game and I’m excited to see what PJ has in store for us in Chicago. He has really emerged since the beginning of spring and I hope he’s the real deal. I’ve got more faith in him than the other Memphis guys brought up in the past like Parisi and Boggs (though I don’t mind Boggs, he’s just not ML caliber yet).
It looks like Boggs wil make the start

we’re on a pace to score 928 runs, and Ludwick is on a pace to hit 48 home runs in 432 AB’s… his batting average actually went down today, and he went 2 for 5 with a walk. Lol.
- So, to ease his pain, you're supposed to take him to a ball game?
- Yes.
Yeah, but unfortunately we're also on pace to
have a bullpen ERA of 5+ with a 50% save rate. Hopefully Motte and Kinney will settle soon.

Motte should be fine
His FIP is under 3, once his BABIP regresses he will have great numbers. Getting rid of Thompson, and bringing up Perez should help a lot also.

FIP is quite misleading at 5 innings
It’s only that low because he’s had long innings→many opportunities to come up with the 5 Ks. Granted he’s thrown strikes and has walked only one and isn’t getting tatooed to the point of getting home runs, but FIP is wrong in saying he’s been a sub-3 ERA type pitcher. The Ks haven’t been there anything like last year.
Not afraid to nitpick
FIP isn't misleading
It is what his numbers would look like if his BABIP wasn’t sky high.
