I'm not a big fan of T_J's myself, but if you look beyond the bluster, he's at least offering valid information on the topic. You keep...
I work in the Galleria and my top 3 locals are Bubba's Burger Shack on 59 & Rice, Southwell's on San Felipe and Pappa's Burgers on Westheimer....
I made this post in the gas prices thread, but I think it's relevant here: Profits alone are a pretty poor way of judging financial success. A...
http://education.yahoo.com/reference/factbook/countrycompare/oil/1a.html The US represents about 10% of the world's oil production, and about a...
Profits alone are a pretty poor way of judging financial success. A more meaningful number to me is profit to revenue %. Yes, ExxonMobil posted...
Me fail English? That's unpossible!
Not really. IMO, saves (by themselves, at least) are a pretty poor analytical stat for closers, and they don't even show up on the radar for...
I don't disagree, but even with Pence racking up the XBH, I'd still like to have Lance's OBP right behind him, bringing up Lee & Tejada with...

Bagwell's OBP was .387 in 1991. That is the very definition of a good plate approach.
Correct Link Source - Team ERA+
This is an incomplete analysis, though, because it doesn't allow for park effects. When corrected, the Pads drop to #4 in the NL - still good...
Nah, not complaining. I just think that the key to sustained success is a good hitting approach. If a pitcher gave up 1 run on 3 hits in a...
You're right. I was just checking that in the box score. He fouled out to first base after going from 3-0 to 3-2 in his first AB.
Never let the nostalgia die! AWA Wrestling circa 1986 - Weeknights at 12 am on ESPN Classic
I disagree (about the fielding part, that is). Tejada suffers from what I call Derek Jeter Syndrome (DJS), also known as Jim Edmonds Disease...
