June 27, 201214 yr There was never any data posted about more balls to RF over LF. Chief (i think) just posted some bull**** about a players range and how it doesn't matter where they play.Putouts by RF are annually more than putouts by LFers, somewhere around 10% most years. I posted this data from baseball ref.
June 27, 201214 yr Bring back BYTO cause you are lying your ass off right now.Just looked at the thread. He said plus glove, not gold glove.
June 27, 201214 yr Haven't read all the posts...has anyone mentioned that Blackburn is horrible?He just hasn't got the sinker working yet. And the ball carries on a hot day. Nothing wrong with Blacky.
June 27, 201214 yr Author Putouts by RF are annually more than putouts by LFers, somewhere around 10% most years. I posted this data from baseball ref.That big of a difference, eh? That's interesting. I wouldn't have expected that at all.
June 27, 201214 yr Putouts by RF are annually more than putouts by LFers, somewhere around 10% most years. I posted this data from baseball ref.That's interesting. I wonder what variables feed that disparity - more home runs go to left field than right field? Worse defenders on the whole in left than in right?
June 27, 201214 yr He just hasn't got the sinker working yet. And the ball carries on a hot day. Nothing wrong with Blacky.Other than the fact that hes pitching?
June 27, 201214 yr Other than the fact that hes pitching?I'd be fine with him pitching life insurance.... Annnnnnnd (former) .890 OPS with a plus glove goes DeePJ
June 27, 201214 yr doz has a gold batNo wonder he has trouble with that heavy thing.... Good for him though with the HR, only need 6 more of those
June 27, 201214 yr Author Annnnnnnd (former) .890 OPS with a plus glove goes DeePJ Thankfully, the Twins cleared the bases of those pesky runners before that happened.
June 27, 201214 yr Jeff Manship...they still haven't sent this guy somewhere that even Baseball Reference wouldn't be able to find him?
June 27, 201214 yr Author Jeff Manship...they still haven't sent this guy somewhere that even Baseball Reference wouldn't be able to find him?Honestly, I think he's fine. He's awful and it'd be nice to have someone better but he's bullpen filler that (should) only throw garbage innings. With that said, he is really awful.
June 27, 201214 yr Jeff Manship...they still haven't sent this guy somewhere that even Baseball Reference wouldn't be able to find him?Haha thats a good one
June 27, 201214 yr Author I have now given up on any material chance of the Twins making the postseason.Yep. This rotation has far too many holes in it to ever compete. When you're just hoping to not blow 3 out of 5 games in the first three innings, you have a very bad team.
June 27, 201214 yr 2012: Putouts as LF, Gordon leads with 143. 5th place has 72. Putouts as RF, Rios leads with 168, 5th place is 125. Going back year by year, there's a pretty consistent disparity between LF and RF, with RFers annually having more putouts, roughly 10% or so on average. I posted this at BYTO. Pay attention.
June 27, 201214 yr I have now given up on any material chance of the Twins making the postseason.What took you so long?
June 27, 201214 yr Back to the game...WTF can't Manship finish this one out? And Spansie just denarded himself. Back in 2013?
June 27, 201214 yr Back to the game...WTF can't Manship finish this one out? You know Gardy has gotta burn through atleast 2-3 more arms.
June 27, 201214 yr I feel sorry for the fans who are at Target Field today watching this debacle.Just got back to Minnesota and I considered jumping on the $8 student tickets. I'm glad I stayed home to watch it on TV. =)
June 27, 201214 yr I feel sorry for the fans who are at Target Field today watching this debacle.Well, you know what they say - even a bad day at the ballpark is better than... nah, I can't pull this one off.
June 27, 201214 yr Well the twinks did a good job of keeping sale true to his ERA today (unless they can bust something in late innings)
