Around SBN: Ray Allen Fighting Age, Injury And His New Role

Game 25, Thread 3: No One Reads These Headlines, Apparently

Yet another terse game for the Reds.  This season has been many things, but it certainly hasn't been boring.  Of course, if we had any kind of an offense, I'd be happy to watch blowouts too.  Tie score, 2-2, bottom of the 8th.

I understand why Dexter doesn't ...

but in all seriousness I think the only reason Miami has all those teams is because each league wants a place where their high officials can do anything and I mean ANYTHING. If a team was ever given to Vegas their would be like two teams in every sport.

but I think Owings is better suited for the bullpen than Homer, Homer takes forever to warm up. Plus I think with Owings limited abilities he would be better suited for short work.

Maloney is more polished

he has thrown 24.1 innings this year with an ERA of 2.59, 20 Ks and 1 BB!!! He has a K/9 of 7.4.

Bailey has thrown 27.1 innings with an ERA of 4.61, 31 Ks, 11 BBs, K/9 of 10.2, and a BB/9 of 3.6.

Bailey’s numbers are a little bit off because of his one monster start with 15 ks.

Our announcers are just stupid

They think Bill James was a philosopher and sabermetrics is a way one measures a sword. Stupid idiots. If you’re a position player, you have to be able to bunt. WTF? Doesn’t Darnell give up enough outs when he swings. Why make it easy?
