Now this is the kind of low risk move I like to see us doing

by HitorMisch on Nov 1, 2008 1:33 PM PDT reply actions  

Sabean’s yearly quest for free relievers with high K/9 numbers is one of his better qualities. One of these days, the Brandon Villafuerte/Scott Atchison-type acquisition will make Sabean look really smart. Any day now.

7.15 isn't that high

MLB average is 7.53 for relief pitchers.

His career K/9 as a reliever is much higher than as a starter. Some improvement is to be expected, but he really took off.

Cool.

There amass been plenty of articles written this spring about the stud shortstop Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum , as well as the fluid young outfielders and thirteen basemen Kevin Frandsen.

from wikipedia...

“Miller is known for his many tattoos. In a move sometimes called the "Justin Miller rule”, Major League Baseball told Miller that he had to wear a long-sleeved shirt under his jersey whenever he was playing because hitters complained about being distracted by Miller’s sleeve tattoos."

Unless there’s more than one, yes. Read the Inkedmagazine link above for details.

He looks like he’ll be a Zeitgeist/Black Heart Tattoo customer when/if he gets to town.

Oh right he’s that guy! I didn’t make the connection for some reason.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.

on the one hand, smart signing. low risk, moderate reward possibilities.

on the other, the huge LA tattoo on his back gives me pause. could the dodgers be attempting to plant their own spy within the SF organization? somebody get on the horn quick with secret agent ned.

Meta

you removed that stray code…was it doing something bad?

This was my 1st attempt at using an imageHost (photobucket),
but it looked OK on IE (corporate modified version) and Mozilla.

At first the image wasn’t showing, but after I posted the image, it popped up in your post. Funky.

I would like to offically rename Mr. Miller -- Gamer McSwaggerty

The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.

Found this on 60ft6in.com (found it on google).

Justin Miller, RHP, reliever
  Miller throws a fastball/slider/splitter combination. His fastball tails and bores in on RHs. Miller’s slider is a big breaker, and he will mix in an unpredictable split-finger pitch. Also, if you give him $1000, he’ll tatoo your name on his right buttock. 8/9/08 CSJ

*fastball(88-92), slider(77-82), splitter(79-83)

Don't think, it could only hurt the ballclub.

So can we pool some cash to put BEAT above his LA tattoo?

I'd pay $1000

If he would put “NO” on one buttcheek and “WALKS” on the other.

I’ll chip in for this.
