Balta1701 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 06:07 PM) why not? Because the probability of each individual guy going from near all star level to worst in baseball by random luck is very low, out of the hundreds of thousands (millions?) of seasons in MLB history. So your chances of it happening to 1 guy randomly should be on the order of 1 in 100,000. The odds of it happening to 2 guys, independently, would be that number squared, so 1 in 100,000,000,000. The way to change that math is to have it not be independent/random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) That looked almost like a forkball/slider....almost impossible to hit. Delabar is such an amazing story. If they make THE ROOKIE 2, it will be about him, surely. Pitching guru Tom House (the one who caught Aaron's 715th HR in the bullpen) deserves a ton of credit for his rehab/recovery.

Rios was terrible, but i'd say his season wasn't as much a statistical anomaly based on the fact that he's always had streaks of awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 That was some of the great analysis by Hawk that I've grown to love. "Lillibridge is a tough cookie. When he gets hit by a pitch..... he goes to first." Please just retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nothing close to 2009 and 2011, if you look at his entire body of work in Toronto, he was always pretty consistent, overall....in terms of his numbers. And then when you include 2010 as an overall season to that whole...and the fact that he's not that old at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) If you said Danks would have a 5.11 ERA at this point in the season and that we were still on the verge of 9-6, nobody would have believed it coming into the season.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 02:55 PM) HUGE FROM Alex Rios. Atta boy. And now we manage to drive in Rios and we're up in this game. Charlie Furbush coming into the game. Wonder how many games the White Sox have won getting 2 runners thrown out at the plate in the same game? Not many. A nice grindy comeback like I wanted. Now just carry it all the way home.
