Printjust a few idle thoughts before you go out to march for a return to sanity, or dress up like a brett farve picture-text message, or burn down vacant houses for fun:
the worst part of the postseason is listening to people try to make obviously terrible conclusions about a tiny sample size, from a small sample size.
for instance, breathless reporting on how well teams do if they've won the first two games of the series, affirming the obvious point that it's easier to win 2 of 5 games than 4 of 5 games. said reporters go on from pointing out the obvious to note that all three giants' ws victories (the most recent of which was 1954) came after winning games 1 and 2. gee! do the giants have in their club dna the ability to win after taking the first two games? or is this instead just a vindication of the same obvious point above?
irritatingly similar claims come re: how a hitter is hitting in the postseason, how a pitcher is pitching, etc. these statistics are stated without any apparent irony or concept that the meaningfulness of a player being 2 for 10 in the series (bad!) v. being 4 for 10 (great) is basically nil.
if you can make it through all this blather without throwing something at your tv, radio, or computer you're doing better than i am.
it occurred to me the other day that the giants may be the answer to a question i asked several months ago - what team got better value from rookies? bumgarner and posey were both outstanding.
the cardinals down in the afl are not accomplishing much, though adron chambers is having a nice run with the rafters.
here's a question for discussion: if tony la russa were "guest-managering" for either ws teams, what would that look like? how would he manage differently? who would he get along with better on each team? who would rub him the wrong way? which team would he manage better?

good questions re: LaRussa
Cliff Lee would almost certainly be benched for the whole series, he being an easy-going country bumpkin and Tony being Tony.
Cliff needs to get his mind right, he doesn't play the game the right way

this is difficult to say
although if Larussa replaced the Giant’s manager, I would expect things to be much different. I’m kind of jealous that we don’t have their manager.

oh goodness no
Barry Zito, no thank you. Traded away Joe Nathan. He prefers old crusty guys. I’m not sure how he lucked out with the pitching staff he has now.

La Russa would explain that he is benching Vlad because of a minor injury, not defensive errors.
He just needs to have a day off and rest it. He’d still come in to pinch hit for his would-be replacement in the fifth inning, and then be double-switched in to rest his balky [body part] in right field.
Albert Pujols does not have "down" years. He has "~6 WAR" years.

Rookie Value
You noted that Madison Bumgarner and Buster Posey were high value as rookies. My only caution here is that the Giants paid Bumgarner a $2M signing bonus when they took him in 2007. Posey cost them a $6.2M signing bonus – the largest bonus given to a draft pick at the time.
Yeah, they are contributing. But the Giants paid a lot of money up-front for those rooks. Just a note of caution.
Each of those players has already earned their bonus and more
by vivaelpujols on Oct 30, 2010 5:55 PM EDT up reply actions
I don't disagree entirely, but
Value is a tricky concept. I might argue that as far as the Playoffs have gone, Cody Ross has been more valuable than Buster Posey, relatively speaking.
1. No one is talking about Cody Ross.
We could have gotten Ross for free and we should have. But we didn’t. It was dumb.
2. Value is an easy concept. Would you pay $6.2M for Buster Posey now? I sure as hell would. Would you pay $2M for MadBum? I sure as hell would. That’s because they are valuable. Would you pay $2M for Pete Kozma? Me neither.
"What exactly is that thing? A pessimism meter?" - Bruce McCurdy
I have to guess that LaRussa
Would start Fontenot at third cause he’s little and gritty. Also he’d probably have Zito on the roster and start him over bumgarner cause the kid needs to learn to play the right way by watching the proven headcases. Bochy manages well by staying out of it and leting the guys play loosey goosey. Looks good to me.

besides no baseball, the biggest thing i hate about the off season is,,,,,,,,
the dumb fucking trade ideas & rumors. i propose VEB ignores every fucking rumor about Colby, or any player for that matter, unless there is solid proof it’s actually being talked about, or the players involved are similar in age, skills & value. otherwise we won’t make it to Turkey Day before we go completely off the rails batshit insane.
and i think it’s safe to say if TLR was running either Los Gigantes or the Rangers, neither team would be were they are right now. both teams seem to thrive being loose & having a lot of fun. and we all know TLR runs a ship so tight that you can shove a piece of coal up his & some of the players asses & they’ll crap out a diamond.

There is a post about the Cards still considering moving Rasmus bc Tony still wants him gone, and it says the White Sox are a team that keeps contacting St.Louis about him and an offer they made was cenetered around Carlos Quentin and the Cards said no way….seriously is that a joke?

If Tony truly "wants him gone"
then he’s dead to me. I can only take so much of his craziness.
However, I’m very skeptical that the tensions with Colby truly mean that Tony is actually lobbying to get rid of such a valuable asset.

The Quentin rumor is hilarious.
It’s literally of the same stripe as…“Let’s trade Stavinoha for Dan Haren!” Quentin has been replacement level for two season after one good season. We literally just gave out the biggest contract in team history to a player at his position who is much, much better at it than him, and we have people who aren’t replacement level at his other position.

Burrell = Lots of head movement
He’s swinging too hard and his head and eyes are moving around a lot right at the POC.
One of the things I told Andres after Game 2 of the NLCS was to just try to hit doubles and let home runs happen.
Looks like Burrell should follow the same advice.
