If I was an Angels fan, I'd probably hate AJ too

by CrossCyed on May 6, 2007 11:18 PM CDT in White Sox Game Recaps

Holy crap, it's time for my once a year game recap. I wouldn't care so much, as I only saw the last half, but apparently Keith, Cheat and oz are slacking, so I'll throw my thoughts in here.

The Sox seem to actually be showing signs of life in the lineup. Six of the nine starters had hits, and one of the three without was Gustavo Molina. Granted, when I began watching the game, the Sox had two hits, and Bartolo Colon looked about as comfortable as if he was at IHOP on free pancake day.

Ryan Sweeney really impressed me with some of his heads-up play. I'm glad he's in the corner, and as he plays more, he'll get more comfortable with the pace of the major leagues while in the field. His arm is strong, and he's above average in the corners. He also has a nice swing that reminds me of Rob Mackowiak's in its look, but much more effective. His first hit was a bloop in the left side (boy, apparently anything up in the air was an adventure during this series), while his second, more real double was a nice cut to the right side.

Enter Anthony John Pierzynski.

His first hit, the home run to tie the game, was a trademark Pierzynski pull into right field. His second hit was one of those bloops that we need him to get to be effective. Apparently the man will never get a full day off, so it's good he can take advantage when we do need to get him in the game.

Lost beneath AJ's heroics were the performances of the pitching staff. While not great, Buehrle was semi-effective, and theroretically did enough to win a game with a non-inept offense. David Aardsma appears to be coming back to earth, but when he gets ahead early, he is much more effective. As long as he throws strikes, he's golden. MacDougal got into a little bit of trouble with a leadoff walk, but Thornton pitched like it was 2006, getting two double play style grounders to get the final two outs. Jenks made us sweat for his tenth save of the year, but I suppose we'll take it.

Brian Anderson had another two hits with Charlotte tonight, including a two-run home run.

I'll try and gussy this up, as I haven't posed anything in months, but I thought an actual win needed a recap. Plus, Cheat won't have to type anything.

Finals week for me

The only sports I saw today consisted of Larry Hughes missing jumpshots, Roger Clemens acting as Moses in Yankee Stadium, and Prince Fielder excitedly yelling at a man that he could eat as an appetizer.

And I saw the first couple innings of Lincecum vs Hamels, too.

Other than that, it's been the study of integrals, partials and a bunch of other math stuff that I can't see myself ever using in the real world.

Nice to come in to work on a Monday morning on a positive note. The middle of the order still looks thinner than Kate Moss, but we scored some runs nonetheless--we even scored without homeruns, we EVEN hit a few doubles. Wowee-wow-wow! And yeah, I too am beginning to get Sweeney fever. Don't want to see him get rushed, but he looks like he's got all the tools and the confidence to be a real major leaguer. He's got poise, something I didn't see in Anderson, well, ever (though I like BA, he did frustrate me last season with his "I'm just happy to be here" attidute--he doesn't have to grind, just needs some focus).

So go Sox! Let's take it to the Twinkies.

Ozzie's comments on Pods

"I had a feeling at the beginning of the year that this would happen."

If he felt this way at the beginning of the year, he certainly felt this way during spring training. If that's true, why was he re-signed?

I hope Sweeney plays lights out and ends the debate. It looks like Erstad is going to prove us all wrong and be grinderiffic this year. With Sweeney, Erstud and Dye patroling the outfield, they'll at least be strong defensively...if they can get the offense rolling, it will be a bonus.

Not to take a side for or against

either TJ of Fang (Hang? I forget...) but, intangibles are part of the game. It seems that alot of baseballphiles have become much, much too obsessed with the paper aspect of the game. As in, they've read Moneyball and some James and now pay tribute to the Holy Congregation of the Statisitic. Baseball isn't played on paper, as any ballplayer will tell you, and scoff at (as Konerko did when, what was it, Baseball Prospectus I believe had the Sox finishing with 80 or so wins).

Stats are important, but intangibles are a part of baseball as well, whether you can prove them on paper or not. To discount one or the other is to cheapen the holistic reality of the game.

by southsider80 on May 8, 2007 8:54 AM CDT up reply actions

I find it ironic that

you belittle sabermetrics--that is, a refusal to believe in anything but that which can be statistically demonstrated--by comparing it to religion.

One side believes in using the scientific method to compare millions of data points, in order to determine what is and what is not important.

The other believes in nigh-magical, mystical "intangibles" (which quite literally means not-observables) which are apparent only to those who believe in them, and which bestow upon players the ability to play at superhuman levels "in the clutch" and "get the big hit."

One of those is like a religion. One is not.

by Dongfang Hong on May 8, 2007 1:49 PM CDT up reply actions

Well, if you continued to read my post...

it wasn't a belittling of anything as I take both into account and make note of both the importance of stats and intangibles, so you're making something of nothing. If anything, I belittle those who have a one-sided view of the game of baseball and follow only stats, or only intangibles. But even belittling is a strong term.

by southsider80 on May 8, 2007 2:11 PM CDT up reply actions

what are we talking about here?

comparing stats to intangibles like they're on equal footing is ridiculous. even the most devoted intagibilista isn't going to claim that it counts for very much of the game. i'd say i'm generous in saying maybe 3% of performance could be attributed to it. that's such small amount that ignoring it seems appropriate - especially when no one, by definition, can actually quantify it.

intangibles make for fantastic copy. sports writers and managers and players get so much mileage out of it that you'd think it's a decisive factor. it's not.

Stay grindy, my friends.

by larry on May 8, 2007 3:40 PM CDT up reply actions

I don't think anyone's making

an equal footing claim, or at least I'm not--can't speak for others. But it would be remiss to out and out discount all the intangibles that make a winning team, and I can say for certain that anyone who has actually played the game (emphasis on played) would agree. Clutch hitting, extra effort, heads up plays, funny bounces that cause errors, etc... Yes, stats are stats and they will much more often than not be the determing factor. If someone can make a compelling argument against that, I'd love to hear it. But you speak of baseball intelligentsia with dogma; there are also many out there who are baseball purists who do believe in an intangible quality to baseball--a unquantifible, almost mythic quality that doesn't exist in other sports. I'm more of a stats person myself, but I would never discount a fan's take on the game.

I also know quite a bit about confirmation bias and other glitches in human reasoning. Graduate-level studies in cogsci do not a fifteen-year-old make, sir, and neither does a firm grounding in statistics.

by Dongfang Hong on May 8, 2007 1:40 PM CDT up reply actions

I mean, if your proposal is that

intangibles somehow allow us to beat our pythag, well, that's just nonsense. There's no player or group of players that consistantly beats their pythag. As for postseason, again, no reason to believe that anything other than pitching, defense, and luck plays any role, looking at hundreds of postseason games played.

I understand the desire to make complex systems make sense. Often random events seem to follow patterns, and it's the nature of the human mind to ascribe some sort of causitive force. It's what we do best. However, that doesn't make such beliefs correct.

Favorite Rowand Play

2005 season. Sox vs. Tribe at the Jake. June or July game...

Sox nursing lead. Late innings. Travis Hafner hits moon shot pop up to Scotty Pods in left.

Pods does his best Al Jolson after losing the ball in the air.

ROWAND, on dead run from CF catches the ball 10 feet behind Pods. He was sprinting from CF the second the ball was hit.

One of my all time favorite Sox plays...

by thekever on May 7, 2007 11:53 AM CDT up reply actions

Rowand...

has always been extremely heads-up in the outfield, and always took command. You rarely (if ever) saw routine pop-ups drop in the outfield when he was around, and Rowand would constantly be checking in with the other guys on the field to ensure that everyone knew their jobs.

Pods out of leadoff spot

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/whitesox/373561,CST-SPT-ssep07.article

''When he comes back, I've already decided that [Darin] Erstad is going to stay my leadoff hitter,'' Guillen said Sunday. ''I'm not going to switch Erstad back into the No. 2 hole. That way we'll have speed at the bottom of the lineup.

''I don't want to use Podsednik at the top of the lineup because all of a sudden, there's all this pressure to get on base, steal bases. This way, we'll use his legs a little bit less because he'll get less at-bats.

''I've talked to a couple of the coaches already, and when [Podsednik] gets back, he'll be batting seventh or eighth. The way Erstad is going about it right now, I don't think it's fair. I can use Pods somewhere else. Erstad can handle the bat better. We can hit-and-run, he can bunt.''

batting leadoff rather than in the 2 hole. And Pods wouldn't be much in the 2 slot, so it makes sense.

I know this has been harped on many times...

and though his .300 average before getting injured makes the argument a little more difficult right now... I have to ask:

What value does a non-"lead-off" Pods bring to our team? Average to below average defense (in only LF). Strike-outs. Historically poor OBP. No power.

Yes, these things have all been mentioned on this site time and time again. The counter argument (which I think most of us found to be weak at best) was that he had speed which allowed for occassional infield hits and stolen bases. Now management is basically admitting he won't even have this. How can they possibly sell us a slow Pods over the alternatives (even if those alternatives are mostly unproven)?

Ozzie loves him,

although he did have a feeling "this (injury) would happen way back in spring training." Quite a seer.

I'm no doctor, but with the regular recurrence of these similar injuries, Podsednik is F-ed. The Ferrari will never be what he was at his best.

But it would surprise me if he's not trotted out there game after game, hoping against hope.

...he was looking for a game to steal:

In the "City of Angels," the devil was once again alive, well and breaking more hearts.

Hearts of Anaheim Angels.

Halos Heaven's Quote of the Year

They will always boo me [here]. That's good. It means they have good fans, people who remember, people who care. It's good for the game."

--A.J. Pierzynski, quoted in the L.A. Times about Angel fans.

"Just because he took the Crash Davis course on baseball platitudes, that doesn't make him any less of a cheating little weasel."Stoopnocracy is peachy

Angels fans suck

The game was tied in the 10th inning on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and half the park was empty.

Hawk and DJ pointed out how those poor Californians have to deal with traffic during the week (like the Stevenson is a picnic?), so they don't want to deal with traffic on Sunday as well.

The next camera shot was of the highway next to the park with free-flowing traffic as far as the eye could see.

Angel fan wussies!
