from the looks of gameday's pitch graphics,
looks like danks getting squeezed early.

Todd Helton
Hawk and DJ says Helton is a first ballot HOFer. Is he?
I think so, but I haven't seen a proper statistical overlay

go to baseball-reference.com
type in any player and then scroll down and it’s listed. It’s jsut above the similar batter section

Here are the positional bonuses
- 2 points for a gold glove at C, SS, or 2B, and 1 point for any other gold glove.
- 6 points if they were the regular SS or C on a WS team, 5 points for 2B or CF, 3 for 3B, 2 for LF or RF, and 1 for 1B. I don’t have the OF distribution, so I give 3 points for OF.
- 5 points if they were the regular SS or C on a League Championship (but not WS) team, 3 points for 2B or CF, 1 for 3B. I don’t have the OF distribution, so I give 1 points for OF.
- 2 points if they were the regular SS or C on a Division Championship team (but not WS or LCS), 1 points for 2B, CF, or 3B. I don’t have the OF distribution, so I give 1 points for OF
30 points for 2100 games at 2B or SS, or 15 for 1,800 games
There were a couple others as well

He was unbelievable in those early years
It’s too bad that injuries ruined him.
Fun fact, Kiko Calero’s middle name is Nomar
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
game is on WGN so I get to watch!
Paulie, JD and Swish were all looking to go the other way on the outside fastball, so that looks good. I like De La Rosa’s stuff so far, but he looks like a fastball/change type and I think Thome actually would have been an okay play today…if he’s healthy anyway.

Curve and Change are working and his FB is humming
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Danks has turned out exceptionally.
a given with Coop.
De la Rosa uses a split. It’s an effective pitch but I hate to see guys use it unless they’re a journeyman or a vet.
Is that what that is? I like it
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
I really like BA's swing a lot more than earlier in the year. He's cut down on that loop

I think Walker has really done a good job
the changes I’ve seen from Alexei, BA and Crede are exactly the sort of things that Coop has been doing for years
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
he has been hitting better lately
Last 7 games for him .545/.545/.727/1.272
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
he's never going to have a ton of pop because he reaches for the ball
but from a swing mechanics standpoint, I like the changes
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
I don't know enough about swing mechanics
I’m assuming that means low HR totals, but does that also effect his gap power for doubles and what not?
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
his ability to drive the ball with power...
so i guess that means avg flyball distance
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
don't know a whole lot about swing mechanics myself
I’ve just seen a ton of baseball and I have a good idea of what I like and dislike. It’s tough for me to explain normally though.

I like his stuff and his control has been on
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Agreed
His curve is pretty good and he’s been using it to get ahead of the hitters.
Both feet on the bandwagon.
my guess is the book on him is to lay off the deuce
I haven’t seen a swing on it yet…but he’s been finding the zone with it. Without swings, I’m not prepared to say how good it is.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
his other stuff must be pretty damn good too, then.
at least tonight. if you’re not even going to offer at his breaking pitch and still can’t get solid wood on the pitches (2?) you’re looking for, that’s a bad night.

only called strikes on first pitch on 5 of 15 batters.

It has seems like he goes 1-1 with everyone
and usually gets the second strike thereafter.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
fair enough.
still really must be on if guys are totally ignoring one of his pitches and still not doing that well.

If there's going to be a collision

Wait
is my selective hearing of Hawk faulty or did Hawk blame the lack of offense on DJ dropping a foul ball in the booth?
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
My guess is a split or a slider
and it is damn filthy. I just mentioned that to someone

When the last time The Rockies had a shutout.
Wednesday
They beat SFG 1-0 at Coors

They shut out the Dodgers on the third
Those are the only 2 shutouts this year

new clove mojo is not as good as new thread mojo.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Is it just me
but I was under the impression that Buchholz was still a starter
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
those are not mutually exclusive terms

Boone is on the ole fantasy team now
he Thornton and Linebrink, actually
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
having both Boone and Thornton able to go full innings (or longer)
is a luxury few teams have

the most delicious of all chickens

looks like we'll be lucky to scratch out a run tonight
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
why did that throw go through the cut?
glad he stayed at first
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Magic!

Who here trusts Masset in this spot?
I’m just curious to see how other peopl think of him
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
Not me, but I don't mind seeing him here
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Trust has nothing to do with it.
That’s like asking if you trust gravity.
We can’t explain why gravity exists, only that it does. The same with Masset.
Both feet on the bandwagon.
the graviton evades all detection in the same way Masset has avoided a DFA
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
I'm in the same boat
don’t trust him, but don’t dislike seeing him there in that spot

How has Buchholz done so well this year?
Throwing 90 on a hot gun as an RHP?
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
He's hitting 94 on the Rockies feed.
Danks was 92-93. Seemed right.
Never trust a big butt and a smile.

Finally hits a ball hard....
...and it’s of the at-em variety.
Never trust a big butt and a smile.

That's one!

Brian Anderson is just a tease
Time for a THOMER!

first post
This game is so boring I just had to sign up. Interesting and depressing — though not necessarily surprising, considering — Sox stat this year. In games where both teams score 2 or fewer runs, the Sox are 2-8. That blows. I haven’t checked on the 2005 numbers, but you know …
Welcome gaffer!
Have you been a lurker?
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
Only for a few days
My friend sent me the link to this site recently. I live in LA and, to my knowledge, am the only Sox fan in this city since Eazy-E died. Looking forward to seeing what’s out there when the Sox play the Dodge in LA. I live about 2 mi. from the Stadium.
nice
I go to UCLA, so you’re not alone in LA as a Sox fan, at least for 9 months of the year
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
WOW
U guys can jam to some Rod Stewart and play catch phrase together! At least now, Jeeves can say he met a guy on something other than craigslist personals!

hahaha
my mom just asked if “Denks” was pitching
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
Assuming nothing changes
this will be the 7th time the Sox get shut out this year. Already.
By way of comparison here’s how many times they have been shut out in recent seasons (these are all full year):
2007: 11
2006: 6
2005: 7
2004: 8
2003: 8
2002: 7
2001: 4
2000: 3

Pathetic
I am starting to wonder if some of our guys were using PEDs. I think a lot of these fly balls would have gone yard in previous years… Just look at both leagues now, ERA’S are down, average pitchers are becoming much more valuable since so many teams were built focusing on power numbers. Now many of these one dimensional players are no dimensional. Hopefully we see more speedy lead off types get a chance since they can help teams in more ways than a slugger would, I want to see more skill sets in the game and less home runs. It is very refreshing to me to watch baseball be played the way it was invented to be played.
