Sigh.

With regard to Helton and his OPS splits, what about

his carrer 135 OPS+

 

My understanding is that OPS+ accounts for park effects.

not too bad, Andre Dawson made it in with 21 years of 119 OPS+

 

Edit: Eh, just realized that the writers don't care about OPS+.

"Two three the count with nobody on, he hit a high fly into the stands. Rounding third he was heading for home, it was a brown eyed handsome man. That won the game, he was a brown eyed handsome man."

I dont get it. they showed the zone. only one pitch in the zone and he finally gets one in the zone and takes it? huh?

That was a pretty nasty pitch. Sometimes the pitcher just wins.

I agreed. Nice movement, good location. You tip your cap.

Yup. The Chase Wright one I remember watching on Sunday night baseball...in Fenway. Might have been his first Yankee start too? The Bush one I actually saw in person at MP, I believe it was against Arizona and we all cheered when the fourth one was hit, not like you get to see that kind of history every day.

And that OPS + is inflated by his stats at Coors Field.

 

His tOPS+ at Coors Field is 119

His tOPS+ away from Coors Field is 80

 

He has 216 HR and 816 RBI at home.

He has 138 HR and 530 RBI away from Coors.

 

No matter how you cut it, his numbers are grossly inflated by his home stadium.

 

Compare his numbers to Ryan Braun, who plays his home games in a very hitter friendly Miller Park

 

Braun at home: .309 AVG, 109 HR, 329 RBI, .588 SLG, .965 OPS. tOPS+ 104

Away: .318 AVG, 94 HR, 317 RBI, .550 SLG, .922 OPS. tOPS+ 96

 

His splits are pretty close. +8 points tOPS+ at home. Helton's tOPS+ split is +39 at home.

 

Away from home, Helton's not even a .300 hitter. His numbers are purely a product of where he hits.

We were at that Dave Bush game too, and it was against the Diamondbacks. :indifferent

 

Small sample, but am I too impatient if I'm already wondering about Michael Gonzalez?

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.
