What is MXC?Many years before reality TV became popular, a US show aired a clip from a Japanese reality show called "Sound TV." The Japanese host, with a big smile on his face, would roll a small CANNON into someone's apartment, in the middle of the night. He then FIRED it over a guy sleeping in a bed. I laughed my ass off at the guy's reaction, who also started laughing, when he realized he was on that show.
The Mutts are losing 10-0 at home to the Mariners tonight. The Mariners will be going for the sweep tomorrow night at Shea.
but...but....they fired Willie! isn't that what the Mets fans said was the problem?
He was part of the problem but the players are to blame to. The Mets have some of the most lackadaisical and lazy players you'll ever see. They remind me of our team except their payroll is much higher.
i know that. but the Mets fans made it sound like if they fired Willie, they'd instantly be WS champions.
ERA+ would be a great stat to see for Minor League pitchers to better understand their overall performance, IMO. I still haven't found a site that keeps that stat, though.
Yeah ERA+ would be great if I could find a site. I saw one site a couple weeks ago that is working on developing a calculator for that stat, where you can enter in a minor leaguers numbers and their league/team and it will calculate the number for you. Who knows when it will be online though, Ill let you know though when it is available.
Good bounce back effort from Manning. The bullpen has been amazing tonight, even Colome. We've hit two homers tonight. This loss falls solely on Hill.
You guys remember 3 to 4 months ago when we were desperate for the season to begin?
That might take a while to calculate, though. You have to add in ballpark factors. That'd be a nag.
Yep, I had never been so excited for a start of a season. New stadium, new players, etc. I was even more excited and enthusiastic after our 3-0 start. Now I pretty much dread watching every single game.
Some possible moves tonight. Bring Balester up, ship Colome and WMP out for an eight ball.
Remember AZ saying the new stadium would provide enough excitement and impetus to contend for the wild card?
I watch A LOT of games, so I'm still happy about it. With the Nats, I've become more of an individual player watcher most of the time. I've seen seasons like this benefit teams in the long run before.
that's the approach you have to take with a team this bad. you start paying more attention to individuals, trying to ferret out the real keepers from the throwaways.it's the only way to keep sane with a team this bad.
