GameThread: Orioles (6-4) @ Red Sox (4-6)
Baltimore Orioles at Boston Red Sox, Apr 18, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
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.)
Yeah, this seems fair.

I don't think I'm going to watch this...
I’ll go watch pitchers better than Adam Eaton pitch in a Low-A game instead.

Serenity now.
Just because you know how to read, doesn't mean you'll like the book.
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.”
No shit

"Hitters like Youkilis"
Do they mean hitters with bats in their hands?

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.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
SBN and our ad firm
But Federal Baseball has the same exact ads that we do except for the WJZ thing.

I count
1 MASN ad for each blog,
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.

AWESOME
It's 4 in the morning. Too much to drink. All the girls look hot. So, the Nationals are Jennifer Lopez to me. —Julian Tavarez
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.

How do you feel about calling the Yankees a lock for the postseason now? Now that you know that Wang clearly cannot pitch?

Wang didn’t put up the worst line of that game. The next dude, Claggett, got even more lit somehow. It warms the heart.

Man
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.
Schadenfreude is a delicious thing, and will warm at least part of my heart no matter what happens tonight.

Since we can't forget it, lets remember it different ~ John Rueben
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.

History is best forgotten, even better rewritten
Since we can't forget it, lets remember it different ~ John Rueben
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?
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
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

double off the wall
throw bounced away from the cutoff so nick scored too

He's terrible
And not going to get any better. At least Trachsel was a creative, likable veteran; Eaton is just a trashy and annoying.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
I honestly could not tell the difference
But I do know that Eaton has gone 8 IP, so the stats are very comparable.

I can't believe Lowell was sliding into 2nd
when that grounder from LF came in.
I’m losing patience with Pie, and I’ve got a lot of it.
AndHedges: soo... when do I get to throw a couple of pitches and complain about "tightness?"
He's a complete project
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.

Bass didn’t give up any runs after we put up 4 in the top of the inning. That is actually refreshing.

I'll take the over
Not that I agree, but I think it’s more of a priority to replace others first.
AndHedges: soo... when do I get to throw a couple of pitches and complain about "tightness?"
Man...
Talk about a gradient… our 7-8-9 guys are basically the opposite of our 1-2-3 guys.
not so good..
red sox usually retaliate (they didn’t last night)… and they’re not going to go after our 7-8-9 guys…
back to adam jones' progression real quickly
last season: 514 total plate appearances, and 1917 pitches seen..or 3.73 pitches/PA
so far this year: 50 total plate appearances, and 206 pitches seen.. or 4.12 pitches/PA
that includes today.
thats not everything of course, and it doesn’t tell us how many balls out of the zone he’s swinging at .. but it is nice to see :)

Yeah
Pitches taken is definitely a good indicator of his success this year.

His walk rate and K rate need work
If he can do that and keep up anything near this pace, he’ll have a stellar season
AndHedges: soo... when do I get to throw a couple of pitches and complain about "tightness?"
Will say..
so far, with 7 BBs, he’s already 1/3rd of the way to his entire total from last year. Only 11 games into the season. That’s a good sign..
Taking more pitches will lead to more walks
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver
last year:
bb: 23 /514 .. so he walked 4.5% of the time
k: 108/514 .. so he K’d 21.0% of the time
this year:
bb: 7/51 .. so he’s walked 13.7% of the time
k: 12/51 .. so he’s K’d 23.5% of the time
