By the way… Xavier Nady career, including 2008: .281/.337/.456, 107 OPS+
For a mediocre fielding corner outfielder with a bad arm, that’s positively AVERAGE. Yippee, an AVERAGE player. Now, Marte has some value, so Huntington must love Tabata. Anyone found a good scouting report on him?

I read an article in SPT that said Reid Brignac was amoung the "untouchable". WHY?
Barty is not going anywhere anytime soon. And his offensive shortcomings are overshadowed by his unbelievable defense. I say include Brugnac an a trade for bullpen relief

odds of a fly ball and htem gunning cc at the plate is very slim
odds of making contact and scoring a run is much higher

what if it was a pop up in the infield
or a liner to a SS and they double up at 2nd? YOU NEVER KNOW nor do I.

you are quite the positive person
i usually don’t get happy when horrible things happen..ill try to work on it
by matthan on Jul 27, 2008 3:55 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
honestly i didn't expect a hit
i expected them to be professional and be able to score 1 more run. it is absolutely pathetic baseball to have a man on third with no outs and not score.

thats the type of shit htat really pisses me off
frankly its a mental mistake in my book
by matthan on Jul 27, 2008 3:56 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Not sure if it is mental...Mahay made some nice pitches on Pena
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 3:57 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
No it is mental
cuz we can control if the other pitcher makes nice pitches, because our guys are just lazy and don’t give a shit. They definetly are not trying hard enough. DFA/Trade them ALL

I dont know if it is fundamantals...it's just guys not getting the job done
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 4:00 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
to me it is the same as throwing to the right base
you have to know what your job is and then execute. all either player had to do is hit a fly ball or a ground ball

I'm deferring to the minor leaguer here.

im just getting tired of the consistently sucking with RISP
Especially with men on 3rd with less than 2 outs.

I'm pissed we didnt score more that inning also..
It’s bad baseball

Okay, we have a .816 OPS with men on third and less than 2 outs
Will you shut the fuck up now?

No...
One is mental, the other is physical
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 4:02 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I disagree
Neither Pena nor Aybar were trying to do that. THey both were going for a big hit. Sometimes you have to sacrifice oyurself to score a run.

HOW IS HITTING THE BALL NOT PHYSICAL?
by R.J. Anderson on Jul 27, 2008 4:04 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
their approach was wrong
that is mental
by matthan on Jul 27, 2008 4:05 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
i just think they had the wrong mindset going to the plate
by matthan on Jul 27, 2008 4:04 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
How do you know what they were doing?
Aybar took controlled hacks, and Pena was swinging normal
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 4:05 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Our OPS w/ runners on third with less than 2 outs
Is better than our overall OPS. THAT IS WORKING!

Would you ask Pujols
To choke up and hit a groundball instead of going for a hit?
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 4:07 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
possibly in certain scenarios with 2 strikes
but pena isn’t pujols. and i didn’t expect him to essentially sacrifice himself on the first couple pitches. but when he was down 2 strikes he should have changed his approach. we were losing the game and the team is STRUGGLING to score runs. he knows that pretty much any contact will score a run yet he didn’t adapt. i don’t have a problem with pena, it is a team wide problem. pena has been playing fine lately. i think when the team is struggling like we are you need to start manufacturing some runs. we can’t rely on the 3 run homer. especially when we are losing

You would ask Pujols to change his approach?

So does the team.
They hit better in this situation than any other. That nullifies your entire argument.

i don't expect every player to get it done 100 percent of the time
but our success rate is pitiful
by matthan on Jul 27, 2008 4:13 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
The pitcher made a great pitch with 2 strikes, and Pena took a nice controlled swing and missed
by td32 on Jul 27, 2008 4:11 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
it is happening way too much to this team
thats why i don’t want to single out pena, but something teamwide needs to change.

They executed better
therefore they got our guys out.
