AVG: .258
OBP: .317

OPS: .743

... My AVG and OBP are all calculated correctly from BB's, H's, PA's, and AB's. I just arbitrarily threw out the SLG, HR, and 2B numbers because I didn't want to get too complex with the numbers.

Bo Knows and Colintj are kinda bullish on Richar. I foresee a small improvement.

I calculated SLG %

after I guessed on everything else, and was really, really surprised at what I got. .460 is not unrealistic, but it's a long shot.

If I increase ABs & games played while leaving everything else the same, then SLG% would be adjusted accordingly.

hmm... interesting. I will give it a shot later.

I looked at his First Inning

player page and it looked like his rate stats have stayed solid and his BABIP was ridiculously tiny. I pretty much just extrapolated from his established rate stats. That and assumed that he'd get a fair shake from Ozzie. I guess that's more of an uncertainty than I considered.

But why would we have traded one of our solid assets to avoid giving him a chance to right the BABIP ship?

dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.

by colintj on Feb 8, 2008 12:30 PM CST up reply actions

50 games, IF he makes the team

I trust Ozzie as far as I can throw him. Given a choice between veteran Torpedo Boat and Richar, poor Danny will be better off in AAA. Throw Pablo in there and I rest my case.

Next time, Bhoov, do some research.

Alas poor Danny

Walk works him over some more in ST, then he carries his slump over into April. He gets the quick hook from Ozzie to make room for $5mm man Uribe, then goes to AAA:

i don't know what to make of him... i would love to root for him, but i don't know what chance he will be given. I just don't think ozzie is the right guy to bring rookies along.

If we start out hitting like we did last year, how long does walker make it?
