PA you must be joking. You want Nix a career crappy journeyman at bat over Espinosa? Really? I don't even know where to begin with that statement.

The bench has a good feeling because he stood up.

Matt Stairs doesn't have two hands, though.

Dear Matt Stairs, a home run in this inning will make me forgive you for everything you have ever done wrong in your life.

The odds say Danny is going to get on base at a higher rate than Nix. Fact.

I've never been convinced that L-L and R-R match-ups are worthwhile for pitchers; same for l-R and R-L matchups for hitters. Good hitters get a hit and good pitchers get an out.

Yes, there might be a small difference over a long sample, for for one batter it is worthless, or harmful. I watched Billy Martin who, aside from being drunk too often, had an obsession with maneuvering his lineup to get "the right match-up".

What's the most reliable stat? A good hitter fails 70% of the time; the greatest modern hitter failed 60% of the time (Ted Willimas in 1941, I mean) in his greatest year.


Amen.

It's the closest most of those bottle blondes will come to actually being outside all day.

Nice hit Hairston.
