So, now that one person has come out and said that Davey is the best person for the manager in 2012
we can ignore the workings of the normal selection process like the Marlins did, right?
Does Davey saying it count? There might be bias?

Like to see that, even though he’s playing for us now. I think it’s quite possible Pudge and Livo play in FL next year.

Always with the negative waves ...
Think beautiful thoughts, RobBob :-)
My beautiful thought
Next year’s Opening Day Nationals’ First Baseman?
Marrero? No.
LaRoche? Heck no.
Fielder? Bingo!

BTW I need to vent here...WJFK we need all the games on FM not some...
If I have to hear one more thing about the Skins…
Agreed ...
Although the WJFK deal is better than the WFED deal that they had previously.
Grrrr! Less walks!

But bad teams are in abundance. The Houston, St Louis, Mets guys in particular are instant mute-button material.

So Norris stays at AA and Solano and Maldonado remain p/t minor league players?
Freitas and some of the other catchers are pushing for playing time, too. Given that this organization is SO deep in catchers, it’s hard to see how Pudge fits in. The only catchers that really have trade value are probably Ramos and Norris, and it’s hard to see trading either.
I predicted Norris at AA
but if they want Norris, and Leon to get majority playing time, I could see Norris at AAA. Solano is good, Norris is good, Leon is good, Freitas is good, and Nieto is good. Yay catching depth
MOAR SEVERINO!
Hey, Bob and FP,
you know why Stras threw that many pitches in the first inning last game? It’s because he wasn’t striking anyone out! Sheesh.
Rob
-- In baseball we trust.
Uh, no, it's because he gave up 3 runs
Strikeouts can rack up pitches if you get to a lot of full counts.
Pitches pile up ANY time you get a lot of full counts.
P2C does NOT decrease a pitcher’s pitch count, in general.
Rob
-- In baseball we trust.
4th Inning pitching report
Strasburg – 59 pitches, 38 strikes, 2 BB, 7 K, 0 ER
Volstad – 58 pitches, 39 strikes, 2 BB, 4 K, 0 ER
Hallelujah
A hit! And it’s Pudge! 1 step closer to 3000.
+1 more for Pudge!!!

this was an “oral exam” given to me in my early days as an umpire:
Name the seven ways a player can reach first base.
Free Nyjer Morgan bobblehead for the first to come up with the correct answer!

You'd have to be pretty indifferent for someone to reach that way.
Um, does extra-balking count?
"If you ain't got the pants, you ain't got a chance." --PerryMason (on the sartorial component of being a Real Ballplayer)
that's only advancing a base
Hit
Walk
HBP
Error
Catcher’s Interference
Fielder’s Choice
Force out
the last two may be the same, in which case I’m one short…
Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what i'm pondering?"

Right, the last two are the same.
Catcher’s interference counts as a hit.
Rob
-- In baseball we trust.
I take this back
the catcher in this case gets charged with an error, but the batter is not charged with an at bat.
You all are still missing one…

If catcher interference counts as hit, that's still only 6

I read this before I heard it, which is pretty impressive.
I think the FM is actually delayed relative to the AM.
I had a radio on 1500 and a radio of 106.7 the other day (doing chores and moving from one part of the house to another), and they were well out of sync.

SSS so far
Personally I think he starts in Syracuse next year. Since he only plays one position, it’s hard to keep him as a backup/bench bat
Bix played TOO much and Lombo hasn't gotten much PT since the callup...
back to Syracuse for all of them…though I wouldn’t mind if Bix were simply ushered out of the system.

Name the seven ways a player can reach first base.
Six have been named so far.

No, we tried that one.

Oh, wait, batted ball that hits a runner?
"If you ain't got the pants, you ain't got a chance." --PerryMason (on the sartorial component of being a Real Ballplayer)
I think it's been answered in group mode
catcher’s interference (not counted as a hit)
hit
error
hit by pitch
walk
dropped third strike
fielder’s choice
Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what i'm pondering?"
Pinky: "Yes, ... wait, ... no, ... never mind"
phrased as the ways a player can reach first
there’s pinch running
but i’m guessing you mean for a batter specifically

No, someone said that up top.

"If you ain't got the pants, you ain't got a chance." --PerryMason (on the sartorial component of being a Real Ballplayer)
Ironic, given that the question was how to reach first
Nyjer was better at being picked off of first, not so good at getting there (OBP).
rigging the game?
Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what i'm pondering?"
Pinky: "Yes, ... wait, ... no, ... never mind"
pushing the runner off the base and standing on it?
