Anyone Want Coke?

Is this a DEA sting?

And if you're in Hazzard county as your location states, can you expect an incompetent yet wacky sheriff and his sidekick deputy to join in your chase, or will the feds completely have this one locked down?

No thank you. Rather have a Dr. Pepper. No thank you Phil.

No' date=' Coke. If he is better against lefties than Matusz but has an ERA over 6, he must be facing alot of righties?[/quote']

Nope. ERA is just a terrible, terrible stat, and certainly awful as an evaluation or predictive tool. Even worse it to apply it to 10 innings and trust that over a career of data.

His K%, BB%, SwStr%, and GB% are all better than his career numbers. He is not any worse than the pitcher he has been the last few seasons, which isn't spectacular, but isn't terrible either.

So you think he would be better than Matusz as a LOOGY?

The difference would be negligible, imo.
