Why do the Mariners even play him in the field? He is a good DH. They have like a dozen Saber nerds in their front office. What is wrong with them? Thanks Amaro.

somebody needs to somehow find out if raul holds the major league record for spiking the ball on the ground instead of actually throwing it. not me.

Everything about this is awesome.

A fan has an Aaron Rowand inspired catch of a hr ball, there are cute animals acting surprised and then some slow mo.

that's certainly an interesting way to cherrypick numbers. start 12 starts ago but ignore the really bad one because it doesnt count.

They laughed at Voros McCracken. They laughed at Robert Fulton. So laugh away suckers. In ten years everyone will be talking about this metric.

Did they laugh at Caspar Weinberger and, if so, were you OK with it?

Guy I knew was part of the Presidential Honor Guard. He was standing at attention a lot at the White House when these big shots would meet on the lawn and stuff.

He was amazed at how much they cursed.

I think they called Wienberger Cappy.

That would be a pretty cool name for Wells. Cappy Wells. He has a ceiling of a good fielding outfielder who hits lefty pitchers pretty good.

Floor of the host of a children's TV show called "Cappy's Fun House" in Peoria, Illinois.

this confused me for a moment; it looked like Raooouuuuull both spiked his throw AND ran in from the right to scoop it up, wheel and...spike his throw, then....ad infinitum

Has the matter of whether knuckleballers are the new undervalued asset been bruited about here yet?

from the article, it seems Dan Duquette may think so
Dan Duquette wrote:"Look at the money the industry spends on conventional pitchers, and most of them end up on the disabled list, not even working. You’re not putting as much stress on your shoulder because you’re trying to get the ball to float, not throw it past the backstop.”

He added: “About half our players are pitchers on a given team. Why not knuckleballers — why not? Our goal is to have them pitch until they collect Social Security, or at least their major league pension.”
