Halladay
think he gets his 5th complete game in a row?
at least the Yankees will miss the post-season, too.

Just curious...
Why does Quentin bat 7th?
Oh! Duh! He has to get his solo homer quota in. My B.

on jerry "makes things happen" owens
or on why one shouldn’t blame cabrera or whoever for not hitting well when ozzie puts things in motion.
Joe Sheehan: Every study that’s ever been done shows that the saw about a guy on first base distracting a pitcher is garbage. Players hit MUCH worse in ABs with a stolen-base attempt than they do otherwise, and the rest of the value in having a guy on first is in the first baseman holding and creating a hole, and that happens with 95% of baserunners. Once again, I say: baseball players are much, much more mentally tough, as a group, than they’re given credit for, You can’t shake a major-league pitcher by taking a big lead

Dan Fox
of BP on a baserunner’s effect on the pitcher
“EqOAR (Equivalent Other Advancement Runs) – This measures the contributions of runners who take advantage of passed balls, wild pitches, and balks. Reasearch has shown that runners have more influence on these events than one might think. Better baserunners cause more balks, as most balks result from an attempt to deceive the runner. Better baserunners also cause more passed balls and wild pitches, in a certain sense, as passed balls and wild pitches are only scored as such if the runner attempts to advance.

this is the incompetence i can't abide
i saw the tag live but there was no way the umpire standing behind could. he shouldn’t be making that call. period. that’s not his call. if no one else in the crew saw it, fine. i can accept that. but ask for help.

the other umpire(s) should overrule him. he’s wrong. if another umpire sees a wrong call they shouldn’t keep their mouths shut just because it’s the crew chief who made the call.
