Markakis.

Statistically speaking, there is no such thing as "clutch." Over a large enough sample size, players hit at their career averages even in important late-game situations. If we could just get OldFan to remember every single late-game at-bat in a player's career, then we wouldn't need statistics and his argument would actually hold weight.

Do you recall the 9th inning ABs on August 27,2007? How about April 20, 2007? Or even July 14, 2007? Statistics do.

Poll to follow:

The Poll scenario only applies to this season.

Geez Dude, are you a glutton for punishment or something? Is this really the kind of intelligence you want to present to people?:rolleyes:

By the way, Markakis is my choice. He's the best hitter on the team.

Career Splits, Runner on 3rd, Late, 2 Out

Markakis - .372 .414 .562

Tejada - .365 .377 .545

OH HAI NICK

Stats Shmats. How many game winning RBI walk off hits in close and late situations does he have? Is it more than Frank Robinson or Babe Ruth? Has he ever hit a game winning HR in the AS Game like Michael Young? Is he even close to being as good as Curt Blefary? If not, then Markakis is clearly a bum who doesn't deserve to play in the Major Leagues.

      1:2 is good.  Elite is a player like Arraez who is 1+:1.

      Was reading Wiggins write up on ESPN. He appears to be more of a home run threat than Koolaid. He had a pick 6 each of the last 2 years.

      Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.

      Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?

      Who is "selling" this year?

      By Philip · Posted

      I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.

      This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
