Yeah, but I don't get interviewed about it.
He was basing all of his info on the movie Moneyball. Brian Kenny was beside himself.

They're doing more of that on MLBN now. Kenny and Reynolds have had the if a guy can pitch the 7th or 8th he can pitch the 9th too -- no he can't -- yes he can -- discussion about 27 times this month.
Hawk said something recently about SABR or something and Kenny was all over it for a few days. I wasn't paying attention though so I don't know the details.
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

Have Carlton's 300th win on the DVR thanks to MLBN. Harry and Whitey in their prime!!!!!!!! Wow, the game was different back then, 1983. I didn't remember Joe LeFebvre being on the club. Knew a fella that pitched against him.
Also have the Millwood no-hitter on the DVR.
Good to be able to watch a couple of Phillies wins.

Naturally she used Amaro filter for a picture of a woman nearly being murdered
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Bryce Harper has 1.200 OPS and a .502 wOBA.

His first 163 games are ridiculous. Ages 19 and 20, 31 doubles, 10 triples, 31 homers, 116 runs, 77 rbi, .283/.355/.515.
His K to BB has gone from 2-1 last year to 1-1 this year (small sample size blah blah)... he's alarmingly good.

Decent Twitter debate today sparked by Heyman questioning Harper and Marte having the same WAR

utley's bat control coupled with howard's power = a freakishly good player.
