Podsednik, Carrasco Steal Another Game For White Sox

PrintBullet point recap
- We've already established that Gordon Beckham is pretty good. It's probably not a good idea to attack him with hanging curveballs, though I do enjoy watching the results.
- Jose Contreras, ugh
- D.J. Carrasco deserved to win this game, and in an ironic twist may have cost himself another start. The Sox need their 5th starter on Saturday, which would put DJ on 3 days rest were he to get the start. But the Sox are without Bobby Jenks right now, and would have to rest DJ between now and then as well. I don't know if the Sox can go through the next few games 2 men down in the pen, 3 if you count the incredibly inexperienced Jhonny Nunez.
- It now feels like the Sox have stolen 2 games this week, the first being DJ's first start, the bullpen game, and now this one, which was essentially another bullpen game. But this one seemed even more unlikely, especially as Lackey made it through the 8th.
- Scott Podsednik, who wasn't on the roster when the Sox opened camp and was sitting at home during the season's first couple weeks, now has 3 walk-off hits this season, one more than the rest of the team combined.

Great game
This team is all over the place this year… I am looking forward to some very exciting years
in advance for this weekend...the indians are just flat out bad...
twins knocked them all over progressive field today…i think punto was the only twin to not get a hit (fuck yes i might add to that)
also…andy marte back up on the big league roster for the tribe, playing first base…hit some bombs in bp…but still has long swing and looks not ready to adjust to big league pitching
hawk has also gotten to my little brother…who is now convinced carlos gomez is going to be a star after coming a triple shy of the cycle and making a nice catch in center
that would involve a whole bunch of skull fucking.-BoeJouma
Introduce your brother to the notion of splits, and then kindly explain to him that other than Gomez' success against the Sox, he is a minor leaguer.

Podsednik drives me nuts but he has been pretty good this year. I may even venture to say he has been CLUTCH! here is to winning at least one more, hopefully both vs. the Angels.

I am sure if Beckham didn't have a game yesterday he would have flown
a stealth bomber into N. Korea, parachuted out over the government’s work camps, thrown the two American journalists over his back and carried them to a waiting canoe off the shore of S. Korea and rowed them back to safety in San Diego….he then would have made a stop by Peavy’s house and rubbed Beckham holy water on Jake’s ankle.

I missed the first few innings.
Is there any hope for Contreras?
"Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, don't fail us now."
not when he throws like that no.
The guy’s ratio of “having command” to “not having command” is about 1:1 to again with his starts.
Personally I just hope he can through a few more 5-6 inning 3 run affairs.
the Count looked so sad
"It was like everything was slow motion," Wise said. "I stuck my hand out so slowly and was able to make the catch."
get off the ledge
this talk reminds me of Richards’ 4 or 5 starts in late June/early July before the 2 gems . . . and then everyone was slobbering his knob. This is what decent backend starters do . . . look good at times, look bad at times. Overall, he hasn’t been that bad (especially if you strip out the early stuff when he probably didn’t belong up here) . . . if your expectations for Contreras are anything other than what you have seen thus far, please re-adjust them.
"I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it."
He pitched like a backend starter
I’m shocked he didn’t give up 10 runs the way he was so erratic, but good times.

One catch (and 1 hit) does not make you a major league player... or does it?
he had an uneventful game in the field yesterday and the winning run
i say he is off the hook til his next error. should only be a few hours from now.
Although I am impressed with Nix' bat.
Seems like a guy that could settle in to a nice 260/340/440 line if the everyday 3B or 2B.
Because he's hitting .225 now
you can extrapolate .260? And do you think he’ll really OBP .340? (How many 4 walk games will this journeyman have?) I think we said that about BA and it never really worked out.

Sure
He hit 307 his last year in AAA and has a BABIB of 233 this year, he’s had some bad luck. That said, a isoD of .80 might be a bit high.
How about a 270/335/440 line?
i don't think he can consistently hit above .260
but he’s got pop and is showing solid patience. not the worst piece around. though he can’t be Uribe Blanco if his D at short is lacking.
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
I don't think he can hit .240 - let alone .260
One catch (and 1 hit) does not make you a major league player... or does it?
i believe i put my "projection"
at .240/.310/.420. i’m pretty happy with that.

Patience is good if he can get on ahead of Pods/Becks.

His slugging will regress
at least that’s what I get from the minor league numbers. Same for his OBP. I dunno, maybe you can show me where guys all of a sudden do better as late-20s MLBers than they ever did in the minors.
Fuck nick swisher
His MLE
from his 2008 minor league stats was 250/310/460 . . . sound familiar? So, I dont know that he is ‘all of a sudden’ doing better in his late 20’s . . . considering he is still 26. And players tend to peak in the years following that age.
"I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it."
Most guys peak in their mid to late 20's...
If he was hitting .330 with 15 home runs, I could understand your case, but the guy is just doing marginally better.
by Grinder in Training on Aug 5, 2009 12:28 PM CDT up reply actions
That's not really fair
His swing is quicker and shorter than BA’s and has less holes. I think .260 / .340 is a bit much, but he’s a better hitter than BA at this point.

The president was drinking Bud Light, Biden was drinking Buckler (a nonalcoholic beer), Gates was drinking Samuel Adams Light and Crowley was drinking Blue Moon.
Taking into account sss for Nix and the mere usage of my eyes as basis for these opinions:
BA couldn’t even properly SWING at a pitch, let alone make helpful contact with one.
Nix seems far more patient and powerful at the plate and makes contact every so often. Yeah, he’s got some work to do and Walker is probably only hurting him (remember how he hit when we first called him up?), but in comparing him to BA offensively, I’d rather have Nix at the plate.
BA was good on defense, but other than very recently, Nix was pretty effing good at SS/2B when we subbed him. Made some really nice plays that Che wasn’t even making at the time.
Besides, BA was a top prospect, expected to do something great and be an asset to our everyday lineup. Nix doesn’t come with those high hopes or expectations, so he’s already better than BA (imo) because he’s not completely letting us down.
And again, sss, but I like what I see in Nix.

I haven’t delved deep enough into the former (or the latter) to say so but from the little I know they’re basically on the same side of the fence, right? In any case Friedman’s shit is not far down on the ‘to-do’ list, that’s for certain.
from what i've read
Hayek fell by the wayside of serious analysis despite being at Chicago with Friedman and Fama. Justin Fox wrote a pretty excellent history of the last 100 years of macro/finance that I just finished called The Myth of the Rational Market. my understanding of The Road to Serfdom is that it’s more rhetoric than real analysis, having not read it.

i'm fairly libertarian as it is.
and i like wil wilkinson (who writes for Cato), whom i read on occasion. i also read megan mcardle, mankiw, tyler cowen, etc. so i’m getting plenty of ‘tarian in my diet. wrt Hayek in particular, i was already somewhat familiar with the major players from MotRM because econ bloggers love namedropping old/dead economists. Hayek doesn’t come up. so i’m not against reading his stuff, but i’m not sure he’s all that relevant to my interests. feel free to link me to stuff.

also, that's all you had to say.
i’m willing to listen. you needn’t be obtuse, sir.
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
I'm not sure if you're going to see this -- I went to the game tonight and didn't want to attempt a mobile post -- but...
A couple of points…
- I’m actually halfway through TRtS right now. Your comment about it being “more rhetoric than real analysis” seems somewhat reasonable. Hayek himself states at several different points in the book that more “real analysis”* would almost certainly be useful, but didn’t fit into what seems to be a ‘general primer*’ rather than a full-blown thesis. The general primer is exactly what I was looking for when I bought the book so I haven’t been disappointed.
- I’m curious as to what you mean by “Hayek fell by the wayside of serious analysis”. I’m not contesting the point but would be interested in some words or a link with commentary on that.
*IIRC, The Road to Serfdom wasn’t meant to be a book in its initial form. I believe it was a series of articles and/or correspondences with other econ folks.
i like talking about this stuff, so i've been checking replies
so: it’s an inference more than anything. i read a lot of econ bloggers and have been starting to educate myself about the history and the math. admittedly i’m not all that far into this personal project, but contemporary Austrians are pretty much unlinked to by the swath of econ bloggers i read and not for want of notoriety. i’ve known of Hayek far longer than, say, Irving Fisher or Kenneth Arrow because the latter two don’t enjoy a cult of personality outside the econ profession. i’ve talked to Commited Libertarians who use Hayek and von Mises like their little red book. i don’t like ideologies or ideologues and i look skeptically on those who inspire such.
as for what happened historically, my understanding is that he was one of many important pro-market economists (dude won a Nobel after all) in the post-war era, but that the rise of the efficient market revolution that began in the 60’s at the university that employed him happened without him.
if you don’t mind some rank speculation, i think this may be because it was beyond his moment. his formative years included two world wars with Weimar and its inept socialists in between. if he had anything to get out to the masses, it was probably about the power of the markets and the evils of socialism and fascism. formal mathematical modeling or debating relatively minor market failings were probably not high on his to-do list. i think we’ve long since reached consensus on that point (how else could Republicans use the word “socialism” like they do?). it’s where markets go wrong and what to do about it that economic policy turns on these days.
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
Thanks -- that what I was looking for
so — trying to tie a tiny bit of baseball in here — Hayek remained a Rob Neyer of sorts, i.e. did a good job of bringing out the generalities of classical liberalism to the masses but didn’t go much beyond that? That seems fair.
And again, the generalities work for me. I have to confess that despite being an econ major, I didn’t do a particularly good job of fully understanding the shit in my early econ classes (big mistake). That changed this (past) semester. My point in mentioning this is that I don’t think — at this point in time — I could really dig into the “mathematical modeling [and] debating [of] relatively minor market failings” and take away from it everything that I needed to (i.e. fully grasp or understand a good enough amount of it).
don't take my word for it.
and he’s obviously an important historical figure. but that’s my assessment, more or less.
and i also just finished a book by Bryan Caplan, an econ prof at GMU, called the myth of the rational voter (even better than the Fox book). it talks a lot about how layfolk really struggle in grasping the utility of the market and general econ principles. a lot of this stuff is counter-intuitive for humans and really learning it requires a commitment to a new way of thinking. i’m definitely not there yet, but there are a few principles like opportunity cost that really straighten things out analytically.

On the subject of monetary/financial history...
heard anything (good or bad) about Niall Ferguson’s “Ascent of Money”? He put together a neat little four-part series for PBS but I only caught bits and pieces (and in any case would much rather make my way through the book).
I’ll have to take a look at some of the shit you’ve noted in this thread.
neither
but he got criticized by the DeLong-Krugman axis for espousing some dumb things about the stimulus and financial crisis. that said, he’s pretty well respected.
also, i wanted to link you to The Money Illusion, which is an awesome blog by an econ prof at Bentley. he’s recently posted about the difficulties of teaching simple econ, like supply and demand. link here.
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
I'm reading it now.
He’s very well respected, but quite Euro – meaning his views on taxes and climate change are a bit to the left for my taste. The book was recommended to me by Dave Tice, Prudent Bear fund manager, who likens today’s monetary policy to the Weimar Republic.
We’re a pack of a-holes. And my tradition of contributing absolutely nothing to this site... continues.
I can fight through the left-leaning jargon so long as he brings it in other areas (ability to write well and stay somewhat factual)
There were some parts on the PBS series that made me roll my eyes — I always have to laugh when “lack of regulation” is pointed to for this or that ‘crisis’ — but like I said above, I can get through that so long as he’s otherwise a decent read. Are you far enough through it to where you’d rec it? Worth the time?
Thanks for the link, Colin — I’ll add it to the roll and give it a good lookover when I’ve got some time.
Argh -- one more thing
I don’t know if I made this clear enough but I’m much more interested in the ‘historical’ aspect of Ferguson’s book than the political part (although I’m well aware that the two are bound to intertwine at various points).
Then get the book.
The history is excellent.
We’re a pack of a-holes. And my tradition of contributing absolutely nothing to this site... continues.
f'real. we've got plenty of regulatory agencies at this point.
getting them perform useful tasks is the issue. the market isn’t the be all end all, but if it were so easy to predict and regulate, then we’d already be doing it better. the price may not be right, but there still isn’t a free lunch to be had.

there's a lot of worry from business/finance types about a run on the dolar
but most of academia disagrees enthusiastically from what i’ve read. thoughts?
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
I hope this question isn't directed at me -- I'm pretty sure it's for WU but thought I'd make sure -- because I haven't the slightest clue
that’s way above my level of understanding/knowledge. Run on the dollar — is that akin to China abruptly calling in all of our debt and us being completely fucked as a result of it?
the dollar is more or less the currency of international exchange
which comes with certain benefits. additionally, other gov’ts are very interested in buying our debt, which allows us to finance the operations of our gov’t. if China sold our debt to someone else, that wouldn’t be a problem. it would if it entailed severely curtailed borrowing (aka purchasing of debt) from other countries. if the market for US debt dried up, it would make sense to be in gold and any position that profits off mass inflation of the dollar. a lot of investors afaia have publicly discussed making such bets.
what i’m not sure is why an investor would talk about his strategy unless it came at no harm or was advantageous to his position. there was a long winded discussion of inflation potential as a result and most commentators i read pointed to the TIPS spread empirically and a host of other more theoretical positions for why it shouldn’t be an issue.
one reason an investor might go public is that hyperinflation could kill the very institutions that allow him to make his profit.

also if you don't want this to get lost/squished to death
maybe a fanpost? i know WU and MM at least would be interested.

i've since checked out his wiki article
Harvard economist and former Harvard University President Lawrence Summers explains Hayek’s place in modern economics this way: “What’s the single most important thing to learn from an economics course today? What I tried to leave my students with is the view that the invisible hand is more powerful than the [un]hidden hand. Things will happen in well-organized efforts without direction, controls, plans. That’s the consensus among economists. That’s the Hayek legacy.”
