October Baseball: Round 1: Game 1

PrintChicago White Sox at Tampa Bay Rays, Oct 2, 2008 1:37 PM CDT
As I said in my preview, Javier Vazquez gets the game 1 start for the White Sox based on availability more than merit. To draw a parallel to the '05 playoffs, Tampa, by securing the league's best record not only has locked in home field advantage throughout the playoffs, but they've found themselves
Brushing Up On James Shields
First, a note: the Hopefully Useful Google Doc is a little screwy. Kalk's algorithm, as I've said, struggles with defining fastball variants like the cutter and splitter. if you check out the tool you'll see that there's a cutter listed that has more tail than the regular fastball. I've decided to just scrap these which in turn has effed with the pitch percentages in the HUPGOOD. This impacts the data too, obviously, as we're leaving out the fastballs with the most tail. These are likely to be more groundball inducing than not, particularly against RHB. So the ISO numbers for the fastball likely overstate the power possibilities made available by each pitch. Okay, let's get to it.
The first thing that popped out to me was his change. It might be the best RH change in the AL. He throws it a ton against even RHB and, somehow, his K rate with the pitch is better against RHB. Not that it sucks against LHB. It's quite good. Often you'll see with good changes that there is an accompanying risk factor: the HR. Shields seems mostly to get away with this, with ISOs to both sides of the plate lower than .230.
On top of this, he throws, if not a pure sinker, then at least a decent groundballing fastball. This is that boring tail, part of which we lopped off with the cutter. He can work with straight stuff very effectively and against both sides of the plate. This bodes very badly for our club. The only pitch/batter-handedness combo that yields an ISO above .300 is the slider against LHB, which he does throw with some frequency. Hopefully the lefties can recognize and take advantage; his command of it does appear to be somewhat lacking relative to his other pitches which may in fact be the reason for the gopher ball problems for this pitch.
Nonetheless, we're looking at a pitcher with only a few holes. It's going to be tough sledding. It will be critical to take pitches and try to get to the bullpen as Shields will likely shut us down as long as he's in. We need to put high pitch counts on as many of their pitchers as possible; they've got a slight advantage in most facets of the game and the best way to eat into that without doing anything special is to control the plate.

All of life's wisdom can be found in Clint Eastwood movies.
Today’s reading:
“Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you’re not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. ‘Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That’s just the way it is.”

I was thinking more along the lines of everytime I heard people say the Sox don't deserve to be in the playoffs

Whither Nick Swisher?
It will be critical to take pitches and try to get to the bullpen as Shields will likely shut us down as long as he’s in.
I would’ve liked Swisher over Wise, but then again, it’s tough to make a case for a guy who’s been OPSing ~.550 for the last month.
yeah i agree there.
but i don’t like Wise over Swish in the first place. this lineup is so much worse at taking pitches when Q and Swish are gone.

I did make a change from yesterday; reviewing my notes, I found I had left out
a step I used in past years which regressed pitchers back to the man for their
teams, leading to some exaggerated responses. That plus yesterday’s results
push the Red Sox into the favorites role. Note the oddity that comes from a
matchup issue – Tampa is a slight underdog to Chicago in the first round, but
still more likely to survive the LCS.

certain victory
while waiting at the bus stop to take me to my apartment to watch this momentous game, I was reading my new copy of the Onion to pass the time. While reading a humorous “In Breif” article entitled “Man With Food In Beard Saying Something About Climate Change,” a gorgeous Monarch Butterfly landed right upon the paper. i was immediately fascinated with the creature, which remained for nearly 2 minutes upon it’s papery perch, and was overwhelmed with a sense of serenity and certainty. I beleive I even heard the creature softly whisper “sox in four…. sox in four.”
This is an omen.

Joe Sheehan (12:23:25 PM PT): And now Reynolds is discussing bunting techniques. I said this when he was at ESPN…when he’s discussing the mechanics of playing baseball, he’s excellent. So’s Morgan. So’s Hershiser on pitching. It’s when these guys start talking about value that I grind my teeth. But on mechanics…good stuff.
BTW, you don’t bunt with two on and none out in front of Orlando Cabrera and DeWayne Wise. Not when your whole MO is three-run homers. Bad play.

"I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Gonna kick some ass in the USA. Gonna climb a mountain, gonna sew a flag, gonna fly on an eagle. I’m gonna kick some butt, gonna drive a big truck. I’m gonna rule this world. I’m gonna kick some ass. I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Rock, flag, and eagle!"
