Depends actually.

If we win and the Yankees lose, we close the gap but the Angels are still in the way. Win and the Angels lose and we pass them but still have to make up 4.5 games. If we lose and the Angels lose, we lose a game and we’re starting to creep into that ‘oh shit’ territory.

Rays have to win, yes

But at least if they do win, it won’t feel like a complete waste if the Yankees do as well.

Best Senarios:

Rays and Angels win games, Yankees and Texas loses them
Rays and Yankees win games, Boston and Angels lose them.

No, math is wrong.

5 & 6 play, you still have 5 teams left.

with 3, 4, 5, and 6, you'd have a division winner playing a quick elimination series.

Actually, you know, that doesn’t sound so bad. It’s a chance to get rid of a garbage division winner in favor of a better wild-card team.

Keith Law had a nice review...
“Betancourt does nothing well on a baseball field. He can’t hit and has lost bat speed since reaching the majors. He hacks at everything he sees, and even swings at pitches thrown to other hitters. He has next to no range at short. And he never hustles on anything, not balls hit in his direction, not ground balls he might have a chance to beat out (well, before he let himself go physically). Other than all that, he’s Honus Wagner.”

If you're scoring at home

The Mets have now turned Lastings Milledge into Brian Schneider and Jeff Fancoeur.

In their defense, Milledge has yet to do anything of relevance, so..

But, yeah, Frenchy is just bad. And when he says things like,“If OBP is so important, why isn’t it on the scoreboard?” then basically there is zero chance he turns his considerable talent into production.

I ended up just focusing on the possibilities of a pitch; ball, ozone swing strike, inz swing strike, ozone foul, ozone in play, inzone foul, inzone in play, and called strike

by FreeZorilla on Jul 10, 2009 6:54 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

What I did was adjust everything so it was a % of total pitches thrown

That was one of the pains. Quite a bit of the percents were based upon different things. I had to do some adjustments so they were all apples to apples.

by matthan on Jul 10, 2009 6:57 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Why? They allreay are % of pitches?

THe pain is that it may be a nice formula for xK%, but you have to manipulate the #‘s to get the %’s until a site makes it readily available

Follow Me on Twitter @FreeZorilla

by FreeZorilla on Jul 10, 2009 6:59 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well that is the problem with any new metric

What I mean is say they have Z-Contact%

Basically what it really is on FG is the percent of contact on balls swung at inside the zone

I wanted the it as a percent of total pitches

  1. of pitches hit inside the zone/total pitches

And then going a step further and making it Inzone Foul Inzone Inplay etc

by matthan on Jul 10, 2009 7:07 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Right, they are metrics you can legitimately get the #s for with your own formulas

Would be nice to have a site that did the work for you, THen it woudl be easier to use the model

Follow Me on Twitter @FreeZorilla

by FreeZorilla on Jul 10, 2009 7:08 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well of course

If a site just calculated the end result or the metrics needed to calculate the end result then all the merrier.

But really the goal is to get the best statistics as possible. FIP wouldn’t be any better or worse if it wasn’t on FG, same as tRA on SC. Obviously being on a popular site makes those numbers easier to get, easier to use, and more popular. But being on a site doesn’t make it more useful or powerful

It still has a ways to go and quite a bit of testing. I like where you lead me though. I really would like to be able to plug it into FIP once all is said and done as well as a regressed HR rate. That would be sweet

by matthan on Jul 10, 2009 7:35 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

This field will always have new things coming out

Getting them on a mainstream site is obviously a goal. But the real goal is improving baseball as a whole. Being able to predict K rates based upon the result of pitches is pretty powerful.

Not from the ex, but equally incomprehensible.

age-ism is an ugly thing, but getting old is even uglier….but i choose to see the beauty in it and pretend i’m writing something worth reading…..seems to reach a mixed bag, doesn’t it? …..and then there’s this jealousy thing you got goin’, Wall! I know you want to be me with your spin, but there’s ONLY ONE ME, so you’re SOL….LOVE and Best Wishes for your Compensation being a good one! thanks for reading and following me around…..you must be my Sacred Clown…..iriitating as hell, but necessary to my aura and wholeness and balance and that sort of new-agey thing……you want more….sorry, I got a date…..and I’ll be watchin’ those Rays wit’ her….so happy about the sweep….now the A’s! I’ll bet you’re quite a writer your own bad self, Wall……manana, bad boy
