This statement is akin to "I like sacrifice bunts, let's have more!"
HBPs are free bases.
sometimes
bases are less valuable. like when u know outs are coming. or the team has been laying down on the job all year.

Play for tie in the top of 9th -BAD STRATEGY
This is why you do NOT play for a tie in the top of the 9th. If you suceed, you get into a situation where it is a tie game and the home team has up to 6 outs while you have only 3 outs. The 6/3 situation repeats itself throughout extra innings every time the game is tied after the top of an inning.
The Royals might get luck and win, but it still is bad strategy.

by Matt Klaassen on Jun 5, 2008 12:07 AM EDT up reply actions
you're saying
that they have 3 outs to win in the bottom of 9, and 3 in the bottom of 10.
I think it’s a tiny advantage because you’re both going for one run anyway. It’s not as if the royals are playing to put up 4 in the 14th. The basic fact is, though, that both teams get the same number of outs any way you cut it, it’s just that one team always knows what it needs to do to win.
Gotta say: Yabuta has been better lately, Maybe he just needed an adjustment period.
But if he can become decent, our bullpen gets a whole lot deeper.
Absence of Butler's babylike ways = message that the organization is serious about changing the culture of losing

I think you are right about Yabuta
None of us can really measure the amount of adjustment that it takes to get to the majors and change nations. Language, culture, ball parks, internal pressure to do well. Yabuta has done much better lately. If he could become the late inning guy imagined during the winter, then a trade of a reliever wouldn’t leave as much of a hole.

Can't help but thinking about Royals not scoring in first inning when DDJ
led off with a double, Grudz didn’t get him over and Gordon hit a fly out that would have been a SF.
How long will the game have to go until Aviles gets in the game?
How long would it take to trade him to the Braves and back?

Mine too. Although Hosmer is a “can’t miss” guy, and Boras is his agent, so you know it will be a reasonable contract. High school players = upside and good investment.

Earlier this season, I'm guessing.
Man I’m gooooooooood.
winning records follow good bullpens
6/3 is exactly the right analysis
As we go into the bottom of the 15, the Sox are guanteed that they will get at least 6 outs before they could be beat. On the other hand, the Royals during the same time period will get at most 3 outs and may not get any outs before they get beat. So you don’t play for a tie on the road, because a tie puts you in a terrible disadvantage.

Have a feeling that a HR will win the game – bad feeling for the Royals when the Sox have Thome, Quentin, Kornerko, AJ.

Aviles goes to Omaha and a pitcher comes up tomorrow afternoon.
Sarcasm™. It's the new gravy.
the worst part is that our manager sucks, our gm approves of his suckage and we have nobody on our team that can hit for shit

His pitching moves tonight sucked
but as a whole Hillman is light years beyond Buddy Bell. And who’s fault is it that we have no offense? Come on, man. It’s time to hold Dayton’s feet to the fire at least a little.
Exactly how many AB
has Hillman given Pena and Gload now?
Trust me, he keeps their no-hit asses on the bench where they belong, our offense looks a lot better.
Sarcasm™. It's the new gravy.
thats definitely on Trey...we dont have amazing alternatives, but we do have some better ones

do team chefs just have pies ready for the pie to the face after the walkoffs?
If so, do the royals donate all of theirs to charity?

its shaving cream.. not pies or whip cream
Yasuhiko Yabuta is to Major League Baseball as Drew Carey is to The Price is Right
ok...i was getting worried
if they were real pies they could bring them down to power and light so the bums wouldnt ask me for money for ‘food’

My secret stash (I think it's a capture from that Lollilove movie)
Would it be uncomfortable if I say that I still think Jenna Fischer is beautiful, even as The Office goes down the tubes?
If I ever get mad at you, RR, I’ll post a picture in which it looks like she giving you best friend, her (nokw ex-) husband a hand job

I might post it anyway
I don’t know the guy, and despite my demure behavior last year, I agree with you that he looks like a total tool.
I bet he cries himself to sleep every night now.
In two years she’ll have caught herpes from George Clooney, though, so let’s just prepare ourselves

K
KC’s bullpen went 8 innings with no runs after 5th. Gobble loses it in two batters – ugly. Another discouraging loss. KC’s hitting in extras was typical.
Even dejesus' 2 run single was a well placed chopper
This offense is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
winning records follow good bullpens
and he promptly was picked off

It's incredibly unacceptable after his little caught off second escapade

This is kinda like 3 Doors Down
You had the golden era of alt bands (see Nada Surf & the 80’s royals) then came the boy band years of wilderness and at some point 3 doors down came out with that Kryptonite song and you think “hey this isn’t total shlock, it’s better than that story of a girl song maybe rock is back” only realize the song really completely blows after your third listen and realize it’s at least another 2 years until the Strokes come out with what would be a serviceable album

You know that gorgeous ribeye you bought
and put in the fridge to grill up the next day, only you got an emergency call from your mom saying your dad was in the hospital with a heart attack, so you hop a flight cross-country and spend four days at the hospital before flying back home?
Esteban German is that ribeye after sitting in the refrigerator for five days.

I'm already starting to feel as though my analogy has been misunderstood.
Sarcasm™. It's the new gravy.
No, no, I'm pretty sure I got it
If they weren’t going to play him, they should have traded him, instead of giving him spot starts and runnings his stats (and thus his value) way down.

Not quite
Although that is also true.
He was a great possibility. Having been left unattended, he is now unpalatable, and may as well be thrown away.

see...i got it...i just dont think he's good enough to have ever been considered a ribeye

Look, it's not like I called him a
porterhouse. Or filet mignon. Or prime rib.
