Masn_medium

Game time's at 7:10. Consider me so peeved that no one commented on the Eric B. & Rakim video yesterday that I won't even try to entertain you anymore. I SAID GOOD DAY!

(I didn't read the whole thread, someone might've.)

I’ll go watch pitchers better than Adam Eaton pitch in a Low-A game instead.

I was looking at my fantasy roster matchups today

It gave Youkilis 4/5 for the matchup with Eaton and said, “Eaton typically struggles with hitters like Youkilis.”

Hey, SC

Or anyone else for that matter, who chooses which ads are shown on Camden Chat? I’ve noticed that other blogs, like Federal Baseball, don’t have any ads on the sidebar, presumably because they have less traffic.

I really don’t know much of anything about computers/marketing, but is it your choice or up to the head honchos at SB Nation? I realize that you don’t make any profit, but I’m just wondering.

I just re-posted my question from yesterday’s thread.

1 Baseball Boss ad for each blog,

but 1 WJZ for CC, which FB does not have, but other blogs like Halos Heaven do,

and 2 miscellaneous ads for CC (Real Age/Collectibles Today) while FB only has 1.

Each blog also has SB Nation ads as well.

The best play of this game was the 1 of a 1-6-3 DP: ball fielded through the pitcher's legs via magic, voodoo or sump'n'.

Worst part of this game was that it was on FOX, so Tim McCarver was in the booth. Or in the city, for that matter. Dork.

The tribe has now added the extra point, btw: 21-4.

And Swisher has NOT pitched! This is making the crowd restless. Animals, all of ’em.

Not even we’ve allowed 14 runs in one inning. Have we? I mean, that didn’t even happen in the 30-3 game. Sure, we got up to ten, and they hung nine on us in another inning, but at least that’s not 14 in one inning. That’s just bad.

That was not a strike

There are like three umps in the league who will call a ball high and outside where the ball is literally at the letters and not even above the plate. If a strike is supposed to be a hittable in theory, then that call was absolutely terrible.

That strike is high right there

Not many umps call that pitch. I think you’re seeing these decisions by the ump because Fenway has cameras to rate the umpires, and the strikezone in “theory” is different than what players are actually accustomed to.

I'm telling you

These are strikes on gameday and according to MASN’s zone, so this ump is definitely calling these in order to impress the cameras at Fenway.

The problem is that these balls simply are not strikes in nearly every other case.

I've never had the need for gameday

But does the system tell you where the ball was, and even if it’s outside notify you that it was a called strike? Or does the zone adjust to fit in all called strikes?

with the new system

among other things, if you move your mouse over where the pitch crossed the plate (noted by a circle w/ the pitch number for that at bad) it shows the balls location for each video frame, until it crosses the plate. it has the actual strike zone outlined in white, and the locations the ball crossed the plate are green for balls, red for strikes/foul balls, and blue for ball-in-play.
you can change the perspective,… however its centered on a specific location that won’t/i haven’t figured out how to change
they’re also introducing a “premium gameday” that’s availible for free through a certain date (forgets when) that shows quite a few other interesting statistics

so far this year: (according to gameday premium) he’s had at bats end on pitches down/away or up/in 14 times, and he’s gotten 1 hit. he’s doing better on down/in and up/away.. didn’t check how many walks though.. i’ll hafta wait till his next at bat to look..

In every sense of the word. He’ll either go 3 for 4 and look like an invaluable speedy slap hitter, or he’ll go 0fer and screw up in the field.

We did, however, take for granted the fact that Pie is still learning left field. Because his bat is such a huge question mark, most people overlooked the fact that Felix is still maturing in left.
