OTTOTD 7/8 - My HBC Stat Line from Yesterday
by kericr on Jul 8, 2010 11:01 AM EDT
Email
PrintOffence: 18/47, 13R, 7HR, 13RBI, .388OBP, .915SLG
Pitching: 16.1IP, 20K, 1W, 2.76ERA, 1.13WHIP, 11.02 K/9
And what is my reward for all of this? I moved up 2 points but didn't gain a spot. I hate my fantasy team so much.
Also, Microsoft makes lots of money on XBox Live, and Activision is pissed about it:
"We’ve heard that 60 per cent of [Microsoft’s] sub scribers are prin ci pally on Live because of Call of Duty," Kotick told FT. "We don’t really par tic i pate finan cially in that income stream. We would really like to be able to pro vide much more value to those mil lions of play ers play ing on Live, but it’s not our network."
They want to replace consoles with universally-designed PCs and allow software developers to manage their own gaming networks. Except this was already tried. And it doesn't work.

Wow, I didn't even notice that.
It might have been the way it was formatted on the site. I C/P’d it from the page and it copied the formatting as well as the text.
I hope you understand how provocative and irritating a statement such as "baseball is played on the field not on paper" is. It is the kind of moronic critique that anti-sabermetric neanderthals use (along with the unfunny "mother’s basement" canard) to debunk what they do not understand.

No ustream works, I was just remembering that I heard about a 6 hour stream marathon that Tia Tequila did where she stripped down naked, sung, did coke, and some other things.
Ustream is just horrible. Not as bad as chatroulette, but it would do the job.

I don’t begrudge him that attitude. I’d be the same way if I were a basketball player. All I’d give a shit about would be what I make and where I’m drinking tonight. And I don’t begrudge him the right to play somewhere other than Cleveland. It’s Cleveland. It blows. There’s nothing to do in that town except masturbate and cry.

My favorite WWE/F story was when Scott Hall pitched Razor Ramon to Vince McMahon.
McMahon called him an absolute genius. Scott Hall was confused as to why he was being heaped with as much praise as he was getting.
It turns out that McMahon had never seen Scarface.

By same match I mean:
1) early match Hogan runs into the guy with shoulder block attempts, guy does not budge
2) Hogan gets some momentum, tries a failed bodyslam attempt only to collapse under weight of giant, kick out at 2
3) Eventually fat man executes his finisher, Hulk kicks out decisively
4) At this point he starts shaking his sweaty spaghetti hair, pumping his fists (Hulking up), ignores about eight axe handles from opponent
5) eventually stops shaking, points directly at opponent. Executes 3-4 punches, whip in rope, big boot, leg drop of doom, 1-2-3

Hulk was a big personality in his day, but they turned him heel b/c he was so stale.

Hogan changed wrestling dynamically twice. I loved Jericho back in the day, can’t say I’ve watched too much WWE recently, I watched a little TNA when they brought in Hogan and Bubba (i’m a huge Outsiders mark), but they appear to lose focus and had no direction.

Anyone getting NCAA 11 early?
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I won't buy that game until they properly hardcode a Big 10 team into the championship game.
Also, the game actually has UCF ranked higher then USF overall. This might be true. OR, the studio that developed NCAA 11 might be EA Tiburon, which might be located in Orlando and they might farm all their development talent from UCF and Fullsail.
Just sayin.

I'm an FSU fan and it nauseates me how over rated they make FSU in the game the last 4-5 years.
Give me a realsitic view of the team, ranked as a B or B- in most areas. The reason they are ranked high is Ben Haumiller, the lead designer is an FSU alum. Takes some of the fun out of it.

Our RISP woes...
Rays do a good job overall in bringing runners in but are below average in plating them from 3rd base with less than 2 outs and more importantly, a lot worse than Boston or New York. We lead the league in getting runners to second with no out and third with less than two outs, but we blue ball our fans by leaving too many of them there.

“This A list singer (ahem)/producer and performer who has been in this spot before was recently whacked out on Ecstasy at a club here in LA. Unable to figure out where the bathroom was, or just figuring he could get away with it, he pulled a Verne and peed in the corner. No one even said a word to him. Yeah, go ahead and try that yourself, and see if no one says anything to you.”
“This A-lister comes off as a cool customer, but behind closed doors she stresses out about everything. Her partner’s been telling her to do what he does when he’s stressed – get stoned! She hasn’t taken his advice yet, but everyone wishes she would.”
“This lovely lady got married to a celeb although she’s been linked to other men in the past. We’ll focus today on those men in the past, because our married actress is still in very close contact with one of her exes/co-stars.

From MLBTR (On July 4th)
Eddie Bajek has reverse-engineered the Elias rankings, and he’s providing that information exclusively at MLB Trade Rumors. Here’s a look at how the players rank for the period beginning with the 2009 season running through July 3rd, 2010. The Google spreadsheet below has separate tabs for each position group. The players have about three more months to change these rankings. You can also go directly to the Google spreadsheet here, download the rankings in Excel here, and view a PDF here.
http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2010/07/elias-rankings-update.html
Highlights include:
Current projected Rays Type A: Carwford, Soriano, and Dan Wheeler
Current projected Rays Type B: Carlos Pena, Grant Balfour, Joaquin Benoit, Randy Choate
If he was going to be a FA at the end of the season, Jeff Niemann would qualify for Type A status. Matt Garza and David Price would both be Type B.
It looks as if the only Rays FA that wouldn’t qualify for type A or B at this time is Gabe Kapler.
I hope you understand how provocative and irritating a statement such as "baseball is played on the field not on paper" is. It is the kind of moronic critique that anti-sabermetric neanderthals use (along with the unfunny "mother’s basement" canard) to debunk what they do not understand.

So if another team signs Wheeler, they have to give up their first round pick?
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
In order for a team to have to give up a pick, the Rays have to offer Arbitration to these players, AND they'd have to decline it.
So if they offer Wheeler arb, and he says no, and another team signs him, then they give up picks.
This is kind of how the Rays got Soriano last year. ATL offered him Arbitration expecting him to decline it, and he didn’t. They didn’t want to pay him so they traded him for peanuts.
I hope you understand how provocative and irritating a statement such as "baseball is played on the field not on paper" is. It is the kind of moronic critique that anti-sabermetric neanderthals use (along with the unfunny "mother’s basement" canard) to debunk what they do not understand.
That's what I was implying. We probably aren't going to get the pick from him.

Stupid Dan Wheeler, just decline arb, think about the greater good.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
The Rays would only get a first if the team that picks up the player does not sign another Type A
And if one has a problem using stats to prove a point, then use your eyes.
I thought that this would be the case only if Wheeler is the 2nd type A signed by the team?

I'm not really sure how it works, but that's the only guaranteed way, Toronto got a fist in the ass getting a 3rd or 4th
when Burnett signed with NYY
And if one has a problem using stats to prove a point, then use your eyes.
Yes, if a team signs more than one type A they lose a second and third and so on, but I don't remember how it works
Getting the Yankees 2nd is like getting a third anyway.
And if one has a problem using stats to prove a point, then use your eyes.
Aren't they ranked by position, though, top 5 from each spot?
And if one has a problem using stats to prove a point, then use your eyes.
I think this is right
I remember them debating on what picks who would end up depending on if the Yanks actually got Tex, CC, and AJ
Wheeler has a 2011 option
We’d have to buy that out and then offer him arb which makes it an even more expensive risk. No thanks

I haven't posted here for a while (been focused on non-MLB stuff since the M's season went down the shitter).
But when is Hellickson coming up? Wade Davis has been far from above replacement level, and giving Hellickson a couple months to see whether or he’d be part of the playoff rotation seems like a good idea… Any indications from the FO or anyone?
