    "Sorry sane, but Gardy is much better at giving out nicknames. Just a few changes I know he'd make: 4. Santany -> I'd have to think Gardy would come up with Ervie all by himself." Or he could ask Gilda Radnor for help, and come up with: Danny Roseanne RoseannadannaSantanadanna

    "Look for the silver lining When e'er a cloud appears in the blue. Remember some where the sun is shining, And so the right thing to do, Is make it shine for you. A heart, full of joy and gladness, Will always banish sadness and strife. So always look for the silver lining, And try to find the sunny side of life"

    Chargois is returning from Tommy John Surgery performed in September of 2013. Only in baseball!....... Instead of naming a surgical procedure after the Doctor who first designed and performed it, they named it after someone who slept through it.

    No harm intended. I went for the laugh, not for the money. Which partly explains my lack of money.

    "You guys want to know who I think is going to win?" 'Nobody wants to know who's going to win? hmmm" I believe you misunderstood the lack of response. It REALLY means that "Nobody wants to know" what you think.

    If Jesse Crain is a comparable measuring stick for a reliever, that reliever belongs on the Twins roster. Crain may not have been the Twins closer, but he was seldom in danger of losing his job.

    Hambino "the Great" is not great, but far, far, far below average.

    I think you just described Babe Ruth.

    "We shouldn't assume an injury, and it would be even worse of us to wish for one" Don't go all MORAL on us!

    However, the results may have been based on the hitters' incomplete development of a good approach for hitting against Duffey. Once the hitters ADJUST by laying off his plus-plus curveball and sitting on his fastball, it is Duffey's turn to ADJUST by mixing in a third pitch. Sometimes it is better to preempt the hitter's adjustment by preparing your own adjustment in advance.

    Proof for you, but not for most others.

    "Jones, Zack (P) Right shoulder soreness Expected to begin season on disabled list as of March 25 update". Thanks, I missed the "March 25 update"

    Why O'Rourke? Picture Casey Fien facing David Ortiz with bases loaded and two outs and no LHP available.

    ABSOLUTELY the right time, if not next Monday. Get Tonkin through waivers and bring back O'Rourke as a second situational LHRP. If Tonkin goes, life goes on. Zach Jones will be back in the Twins system by then.

    There’s some intuitive patterns here: shortstops (SS) and center fielders (CF) are near the top, whereas left and right fielders (corner outfielders [cOF]) are towards the bottom. But there’s also some oddness; why are 3Bs the most injured players? The problem with this graph is that we didn’t adjust for age, which as we’ve already seen, is a significant covariate. For example, if pitchers are on average younger (which they are), they might not get injured as often in an absolute sense, yet they may get injured more often than expected, given their age–precisely what we’d like to know. Reframing the question thusly, we arrive at the following graph, charting age-conditioned risk of injury as a function of some positions (check out all positions here):

    Can you document that with Actuary Tables?

    It is also contingent on his team winning something besides games, and that is not likely.

    Not sure about "we", but I worry because sometimes AAA performance predicts MLB performance.

    Quinton and Arcia could both score from first on a double, but they would have to skip touching second and third base, and take a more direct route.

    I see by the Yankees Opening Day lineup, that Aaron Hicks is not in it. (OF= Gardner, Ellsbury, Beltran) Apparently we traded a backup RF (Hicks) for a backup catcher (John Ryan Murphy).

    Season ticket buyer?

    I forgot about Mike Strong our best 7'1" short reliever, Loek Van Mil.
