Why doesn't this channel broadcast the Chicago games? This sucks big time. You have to order MLB Extra Innings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Anderson now 2/4 on the day, up to hitting .263. Getting slowly better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

103 mph screwball Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 05:46 PM) Anderson now 2/4 on the day, up to hitting .263. Getting slowly better. Not bad at all when you consider his outfield assists and defense. Getz or maybe Beckham to lead off and Anderson can bat 9th is sounding like a good plan to me. Screw speed. I dig the stolen base growing up watching Rock Raines, Ricky Henderson, and Vince Coleman, but this team just doesn't have it and can not seem to be able to acquire it for a reasonable price. I have Betemit, Nix, Wise, and Miller going north as well. Nix has shown some talent and I want to keep him despite the quad issues. DL him if needed.

qwerty Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 QUOTE (ottawa_sox @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 05:05 PM) Sorry about that ...... done. Now it is the size of an avatar, you can definitely make it bigger than it is currently, it is just orginally it was the size of the entire screen. Now it is almost too small, though do what you do.

bighurt4life Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Accdg to the box score it was Braun that gave up the 4 run inning, not DJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 And all of a sudden, BA's numbers look decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Make it a 3/5 day for Anderson, now up to .283. 3/5 on the day for Betemit also. Alexei 0/5. AJ 2/4, guess he decided he needed to keep pushing that .467 BA higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Dye Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 OK, the FO has conditioned me and now i'm pumped: bring on Wise/BA platoon. I mean its not like i have any other choice. Maybe Wise can sustain something decent in the way of a batting average. I would like Getz to come up and take leadoff however, coming out of the box strong and impressing Ozzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gameday at the time had it as Carrasco .Braun probably wasn't recognized since it was his 1st appearance of the spring. Thanks for the heads up.

Balta1701 Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 I love how his OBP is lower than his BA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 It's pretty funny, if the season started today our leadoff hitter would be a 31 year old career minor leaguer with a .300 spring OBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 Jim Thome, who has experienced tightness in his lower back, played in a simulated game. "I probably got six or seven at-bats and worked on some things, did our work, and everything was great," he said. Thome expects to start Wednesday against the Angels.

Kalapse Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 09:49 PM) Yes, how did you figure that? He has a sacrifice fly. OBP is calculated using plate appearances while batting average is calculated using AB. A SF doesn't count as an AB but it does count as a PA. So it hurts your OBP because you tallied a PA without reaching base but leaves your AVG unaffected since it doesn't count as an AB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
