only 24.5 for Reyes whom you are all madly in man-love with


While I do have a man crush on Reyes, that is not why I've awarded him so many points. I have a formula I use for each game to award and deduct points from players in order to make sure I'm not swayed by my personal feelings toward the player. I'll allow that the formula may be flawed but it's not inconsistent.

I'm rather astounded that so many people actually keep a running tally of their previous votes. I guess I'm just too lazy to create a spreadsheet and total up my votes.

Overall, my votes were relatively close to the CPF average.

CPF gave about 9.10 points per game opposed to my 8.71 points per game.

CPF had a 59.6% to 40.4% batter-to-pitcher point ratio and I had a 56.1% to 43.9%.

The player I "favored" most was Pedro Feliciano, giving him 1.16 points more than CPF. The player I under-pointed compared to everyone else was José Valentín, who I gave a whopping 3.16 points less. Runner up in that was José Reyes, who I gave 2.47 less. Everyone else was within 1.07 points.

Reyes took 20.45% of my batter votes and 11.46 % overall, and for CPF, took 20.31% and 12.10%.

Maine took 22.09% of my pitcher votes and 9.70% total, and for CPF, 21.80% and 8.81%.

Heilman was that good! Actually, I meant to give one of those to Feliciano. I fixed it. Thanks.

D'oh! Now I'm getting more generous to Schoenweis and Alou.

http://getalifealready.com/cpf/MilestonePostAvatars/debutpost.jpgalert. mathematically enhanced tiny box of transistors, called m.e.t.b.o.t., has been activated to participate in schaeffer voting. m.e.t.b.o.t. enjoys applying awkward mathematical formulae to solve the problem of determining those most deserving of schaeffer votes. m.e.t.b.o.t. intends to utilize win expectancy statistics derived from www.fangraphs.com as the basis of his voting.

m.e.t.b.o.t. is excited to have had his spring wound for the first time, and m.e.t.b.o.t. will be happy to answer any questions regarding his methodology - as happy as a spring-wound robot lacking any emotions can be.

m.e.t.b.o.t. reports his late 5/1/07 schaeffer votes as follows, for informational purposes:

Wright 4.80
Smith 1.94
Chavez 0.56
Delgado 0.36

m.e.t.b.o.t. arrived at this by scoring those players who had positive contributions to the win expectancy. to begin, m.e.t.b.o.t. takes the win expectancy added by a player, and takes the sum of those positive contributions. if they add up to 0.500, or higher, m.e.t.b.o.t. scales them to arrive at a total of 10 voting points. if they add up to less than 0.500, then they are scaled by the ratio of their win expectancy added divided by 0.500 - the total points for a win. basically, m.e.t.b.o.t. multiplies the number by 20.

as an example, in the game from 1 May 07, m.e.t.b.o.t. performed the following tally. the positive contributers were david wright, at 0.240 WE, carlos delgado at 0.018 WE, joe smith at 0.097, and endy chavez at 0.028. the total WE is 0.383, which is less than 0.500. therefore, m.e.t.b.o.t. multiplies david wright's contribution by 20, to arrive at 4.80 schaeffer points to award.

wright - 0.240 x 20 = 4.80
smith - 0.097 x 20 = 1.94
delgado - 0.018 x 20 = 0.36
chavez - 0.028 x 20 = 0.56

m.e.t.b.o.t. hopes that this all makes sense, and that m.e.t.b.o.t. will be permitted to participate in schaeffer voting. or at least will be encouraged to perform parallel calculations.

Does m.e.t.b.o.t. have feelings? Can he love?

m.e.t.b.o.t. is neither well-articulated nor emotional. m.e.t.b.o.t.'s spring mechanisms do not support emotional responses beyond a deep love of beer-based voting systems. m.e.t.b.o.t.'s transistors are only advanced enough to process schaefer voting and schaefer voting discussions.

It's been too long since we last hatched a chick.

I'm glad Reyes contributed materially to the win today because otherwise I'd be ethically conflicted on whether I should toss him a tenth of a point strictly in appreciation for his hairy individuality.

Keep your cap on, kid. And run!

Yeah, quit farting around.

m.e.t.b.o.t. does not understand the references to involuntary digestive output. m.e.t.b.o.t. is frequently discouraged by the overabundance of anthropomorphic references.

while m.e.t.b.o.t. acknowledges that m.e.t.b.o.t. is likely the only automated, and therefore non-human, participant in the crane pool forum, m.e.t.b.o.t. wishes at times that m.e.t.b.o.t. did not appear to be such an outsider.

m.e.t.b.o.t. is not a very good base-stealer. m.e.t.b.o.t. has very little legs. if m.e.t.b.o.t. was in the stands and had an opportunity to catch a foul ball, the ball would crush m.e.t.b.o.t. like a tin can.

m.e.t.b.o.t. needs to be programmed with pronouns. m.e.t.b.o.t.'s programmers are cheap and lazy.
