wright's ba/obp since the break are bad but not abnormal for a short term slump and certainly nothing to worry about. delgado's numbers have been putrid since early april, how bout a series off?
-
i dont care enough to do it again, its still in my private totals. as for today's game i gave Reyes a 4. if the voting is about helping the team win as opposed to individual performance/compiling stats then the 2nd homer wasnt very important and the 3rd was essentialy a single/walk with that score. i still gave him 4 because the 1st homer gave us the lead (temporarily) and i won't entirely discount the others. the pitchers got .25 per inning which i think will become my standard rate for mop-up duty.

i agree with old mole, he could have been back after the nady trade and floyd injury if he was hitting. he's too young to give up on but i can't see giving him another shot in the big leagues until he shows something in the minors. the attitude is especially disappointing.

Beltran, the active career leader in sb%, isn't on the 'best baserunner' list?
-
] He is a native of Parlin, N.J., and grew up a fan of both the Mets and the Yankees, but once he was signed, the Yankees hat was soon tossed from his collection. what does "tossed" mean here? he'll have to burn it or otherwise permanently get rid of it before i will like him. keeping it but not wearing it won't do.

Uni Watching, Turn Back The Clock Weekend against Rockies
nymr83 replied to stevejrogers's topic in New York Mets Talk
]Also available for sale are a Reyes, Martinez, Delgado, Lo Duca (grrrr) and Beltran uni you've stumbled onto the reason for this weekend. nonetheless, i want the Wright pullover jersey. -
yeah, the best thing we can do is lead the league in ALL offensive categories, then we won't have to worry about what we need and what we don't. still, we are on top in OPS (i think) and thats probably the most important (after Runs itself which, being the goal, isnt really useful as a stat here...more of a yogi-ism "we'll lead the league in runs if we can lead the league in runs.") i would think that teams at the top of either OBP or SLG do well in runs scored and that teams at the top of both do even better. i'd also suspect that your ranking in stolen bases doesn't matter much though your ranking in sb% may certainly help.

JD- thats interesting, but the homers wouldn't matter as they aren't outs, they dont decrease the number of chances on balls they just bring the next batter up. the strikeouts certainly would matter. the question to ask is what percentage of outs came via strikeout in the 70's and now. an increase in flyball outs could also matter as (it seems to me without looking up stats) that there are far less errors on flyballs than there are on grounballs.

]"It's his name, and if he wants to call himself Carlos Dope P-Moneybags, whatever." agreed. still strange that some names appear with and without the accent marks, perhaps you can chalk it up to keyboards not having accented letters and lazy writers not wanting to hit alt+0484 or something, but isn't that what editors (or interns) are for?

Trade Tracker: Kris Benson for Jorge Julio and John Maine
nymr83 replied to a topic in New York Mets Talk
i just dont think theres any reason to look at his numbers for the mets without taking his other numbers into account. Peterson didn't "fix him in 10 minutes" he is still the same pitcher that stunk up the joint for arizona, he's had some better luck of late but he is still the same guy. as for john maine i really hope he is half as good as he has looked, but until he has more innings under his belt i have to wait and see. if you'd like to ressurect the "bets thread" i'll bet that Benson has a better ERA+ in the 2nd half than Hernandez (assuming we can find ERA+ for half a season?) -

edit- nevermind. -
another homer for Piazza!
-
Piazza homers to make it 4-1, the crowd gives him a curtain call!
-
i think official scorers are far too generous to fielders in general, whether this has always been the case i can't really say.
-
i clicked "no intention" but i suppose when it is eventually on tv i will watch it. its not that i'm "not ready" for it, i'm just not interested in it and i probably go to 1-2 movies a year in theaters, its gotta be something special to get me there and this aint it.

Trade Tracker: Kris Benson for Jorge Julio and John Maine
nymr83 replied to a topic in New York Mets Talk
it isnt all that counts. the mets have locked up a playoff spot, what hernandez does for the mets right now doesnt matter and is no better indicator of what he'll do in the postseason than what he did for the d-backs. and since you're cherrypicking i'll do it too... Benson has a 3.83 ERA in his 101 night game innings, it is only in day games that he gets hit hard. guess when most playoff games are played. he has a 4.29 since the all-star break, compared to hernandez's 4.39, both in 4 games i'd still undo this trade in a second. -

that hard data doesn't account for the difference in leagues, which are looking particularly unequal this year. a guy with a 4.7 in the AL is having almost as good a yeart as a guy with a 3.7 in the NL (the 3 pitchers combined). also, Maine alone has 39 innings....talk to me when he has the 133 Bnson has thrown. Henandez for the year (if you dont cherrypick his Mets stats) has a 4.97 ERA, hugher than Benson's and thats in the NL. so while the mets have gotten more quality out of the 3 guy combined, neither of those starters is more trustworthy than benson right now.
