yup. It was me and my absurd references to math. I take it back - the As are clearly the superior team.
Run differential correlates to future win projections. Ease of schedule correlates to figure win projections. Of course they could continue to...
It’s not my “version of projections”. I cited a series of actual facts that correlate to future success. You can stick with superstition and...
He doesn’t even have the highest WAR this year by any of the core sites. He certainly is not in line to have the best year ever. Most unique year?...
the numbers will even out in the sense the As have had a weaker schedule, have played (and won) more games at home, have not performed well...
I’m not worried at all about As. The run differential and difference between SOS will play out over time. I want the top record in the AL, so...
Time to take the training wheels off of Odorizzi. He’s looked great his last three outings. Need 6-7 out of him, then let Javier bring it home...
I have never enjoyed the “ignore” function as much as I enjoy it now. I still get to see Buck and Snake tell a moron what an idiot he is, but I...

I stand by what I said
I want Brantley here
8:9/1 with no one one or 2/3/4 with runner on second? I’d take my chances on someone else for the former. But let’s see
So we are guaranteed to face top of Tigers lineup. 10th with runner on. And so we … use Pressly now?

I would prefer someone who isn’t Raley here. I’m not picky
its all going so poorly and then it’s not
Reverse jinx?
there were more references to the Astros “needing another reliable starter” (one) than to the other teams blatantly caught cheating (zero).
Run differential standings getting a bit lopsided here. +135, more than 50% higher than next AL team, one-third higher than any other team in MLB
If you stayed with Houston over LA despite the backlash and LA winning the WS, you’re no longer a bandwagon fan. Welcome!
