Thanks for the recap on Keith Law. Thats what I meant.
I gots DTV so, I can watch the Fish. Thats the only reason i got DTV. Its awesome. I love I can use my iphone and DTV app to record. It's pretty epic. Also, I now remember that on TnB....the Kieth Law Incident.
Cantu is my constant.

Baseball only has one stat that is an end unto itself, a win. Everything else is a means to that end. Now, someone who knocks in 10 RBI in 10 consecutive games is providing more value to his team than someone who knocks in 10 RBI in a single game, for example. Or, to use a "valuable stat," 10 HR in 10 games is more valuable than 10 HR in a single game. Assuming identical performance in all other plate appearances for that player over the course of those 10 games, the team where the guy hits 10 HR in 10 games will, on average, win more games than the 10 HR in one game player.
This is due to the law of diminishing returns. Within a single game, the added value of an additional run diminishes the further you get away from a tie game because the team's win probability is being affected less and less.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler.

I'm the one who told Keith he should have been aborted. I now wish it was a partial birth abortion.

I just watched that Marlins Will Soar video on Youtube. It was shit on by pretty much the entire site I think. I dont know if its the song itself or the fact that everyone seems to hate Scott Stapp.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler.
