'98 Marlins Watch

[HUGG]

We no longer have the worst run differential in baseball.

Thanks, Blue Jays

[Beef]

Of the five players the Blue Jays acquired in the blockbuster Marlins trade Johnson and Jose Reyes are on the disabled list, Mark Buehrle has a 6.43 ERA, Emilio Bonifacio is hitting .179, and John Buck is having a career-year … for the Mets.

I was trying to learn more about how the Marlins strength and conditioning folks got JJ hurt for the Blue Jays and caught that paragraph.

[Jay]

They kept Reyes healthy when he was with us and everyone always cites him as someone who can't stay healthy.

[Beef]

I think we determined they can keep guys healthy, but once they get hurt they cannot fix them.

[Jay]

Maybe we should consider outsourcing that part. It might save some money too.

How is our run differential?

*in before Beef

[Beef]

I'm not interested in run differential. I'm interested in run pace.

1962 Mets never scored 14 runs in a game.

IN THEIR FUCKING FACE
--------------------
Our pythagorean expectation is now 55-107

we got 7 games better in 2 days

[Omar]

Through 32 games:

2003 Detroit Tigers   7-25  --
2013 Miami Marlins   10-22  3
1962 New York Mets   12-20  5

Game 33 Results:

62 NYM: LOSS
03 DET: LOSS

Current Projected Record: 51-111
Current Projected Pyth Record: 57-105

Current Projected Run Differential: -197

Fun Fact: AdamRavs now has the best run differential of all posters at +13. Next closest is +3.

How the fuck do the fact that the sum of the two legs of a right triangle squared equals the length of the hypotenuse squared to find records of a baseball teams? I don't see how the side lengths for right triangles has any impact on how the Marlins will do this season.

The name comes from the formula's resemblance to the Pythagorean theorem.

They're not just losing games. They're on pace to score 286 runs. I don't think many realize how incredibly bad that is. No team has ever scored under 360 in a full season.

On pace for 496 runs now

[Bobbob1313]

Weird.

On pace for 496 runs now

You don't know how incredibly bad 286 runs is.

[Beef]

I never did
