Really, it's coming to that? I was giving my opinion and asked him why he thought what he did. It's well-known that Morgan has a weak arm so it isn't much of a stretch to say Aoki's is better. I also used the word "seems" to indicate that it wasn't necessarily a given fact but that to me, it "seemed" like Aoki judged the ball better. But yes it would be nice to have a job in baseball. Or any job for that matter.

 

It's just how you word stuff and never seem to see other points of views. Cannot stand people who think there is one version of how how this game should go. Be open. You'll learn a lot more about the game.

 

And telling me I could learn a lot more about the game is kind of condescending. I have learned a lot about the game on this board but from people like Russ, TheCrew07, TLB, etc. Plus I'm not some teenaged kid here. I've followed baseball for just about all of my 28 years. I can see other points of view but when someone says something I don't agree, I will ask why they think that and say why I think it's wrong. After all, this is a message board to be used for discussion. Your posts calling me out don't really have much value here.

 

Condescending? I'd tell you that if you were 80 years old and watched a million games.

Again it's how you've worded stuff towards me and maybe because it's hot I'm just not having it today. The fact that you think tons of guys on these boards would do better than RR shows the ignorance you have with the game. There's a reason he's there and we are here. Remember that even if you don't agree with his "style" or "brand" of baseball. Enjoy being "right" and enjoy the rest of the game. Im done arguing with you.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

And I'm saying you just joined the board last month. I've been here for 6 or 7 years. And I didn't say tons, I said 5-10. Guys that I mentioned above, that use advanced stats and understand there's more to baseball than a guy just "being hot."

This is Jack Burton in the Pork Chop Express, and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin' out there.

Think Estrada goes back out for the 7th? Not sure if he's stretched out for 100 pitches or so. Gotta be done after this.

 

Braun will probably be booed very hard and that will be very annoying.

I'm going to stick up for Pete here. I've been reading this board for 5-6 years but just began posting. The reason why is because of all the rediculoous posts about RR. And i want to say im not even a big fan but this board has become almost ubbearable. I work in statistics and played baseball through college. I get advanced stats, I really do... But most on this board live and die by them and think these players are robots

I shouldn't of posted the condescending remark. That was my bad but thanks for the post and completely agree. Baseball of all games is more feel than anything. Play hot hands, get a guy feeling about a pinch hitter and he pops one out of the park etc... If it were all about advanced stats, which I'm sure RR sees and has, then a lot more people would be great managers.

I'm so glad that the Brewers didn't overpay Reyes. I think it's pretty safe to say that he had a career year last season playing for a contract.

 

There is no such thing as a career year in a contract year. Every year you play to your career norms. ;)
