The Polaroid Random Thoughts Baseball Thread

[Tron]

DET is the only team in the Eastern time zone that is under .500

 

[Tron]

Archie, in terms of opponents' win percentage, MIA is middle of the pack; .500

With their ace (Josh Johnson) having the highest WHIP of all of their starters and their closer being laughable at best, I'm pretty satisfied so far with performance.

This is a random thought thread after all.

SMALL SAMPLE SIZE ALERT: Stanton had the highest OPS in baseball in May: 1.201

 

[FairWarning]

Marlins June schedule has no teams currently under .500

 

[Tron]

I'll be very happy with a 16-13 June.

Yes.

Sad to report that auto-fade Jeff Suppan has been released by SD.

 

[Archie]

what site are you using for SOS Daffy?


why Suppan is gone.... I bet someone picks him up...

Nate Mcclouth is out there now too, wander if anyone else gives him a shot...


HUGE series for the Pirates this weekend.

they are about 7-376 against the brew crew in the last ten years. and they've lost like 45 straight at miller park....

brew crew with a late game in LA last night though.... anything could happen. Might try to find some Pirates +7.5

jinxed Buehrle....

Njyer Morgan with his 2nd extra base hit of the season in 126 ab's hitting .230 and slugging .262.... Might as well have Omar Vizquel out there.


will be fading the mets next time Santana starts, unless they give him a few extra rest days.

oh wow!!! wasn't aware of this

20 abs 9 hits 4 hr's 1550 ops, only 1 strike out go Vlad go!

 

[FairWarning]

Santana will be a good fade Archie, 135 pitches tonight.

Robin Ventura is an amazing coach!

Nolan Ryan could still kick his ass though

It actually started in March, but nice try.

When does it end again? May?

Only a thought but possibly I'm thinking sometime in July like Daft's season long bases thread did?

My late grandfather once said, "its better to have had 3 month winning baseball thread than to have had none at all".

Completely in agreement and I understand you now that anything you say to take as a "grain of salt" anyway! :

And excellent work on the 3 month winning thread! We're talking bout 2011 right? Not the 3 months so far in 2012?

injury updates for Howard, Utely, and Halladay please MrMonkey?

Check my Phils thread on Utley and Howard! Not much on Halladay except 6-8 weeks but waiting for 2nd opinion to come in? I mean the Marlins, Braves, and Nats all have certain injuries hampering them. Should be an exciting race in the East and possibly this country hick might turn out to be a genius if he pushes the right buttons!

Ichiro tripled his HR total already today!
