Shouldn't a hitter's history against a pitcher almost always get dismissed as "sss"?
I’ve never understood the “ownage” concept. Maybe hitters/pitchers are aware and leads to more confidence or something, but basing managerial decisions on such things seems silly.
Proudly adopted Aubrey Huff. You can't beat that!
Yeah, it’s dumb.
Really, though, I think Bochy is going with the “put your best defense on the field behind your ace” philosophy. Which is EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE of what he should be doing, but whatever.
It might be more...
“These clowns won’t score off our ace, so I’ll field a team that’ll score exactly one run and rest some guys”
Remember when Alou would win the first two games of a series and then punt the 3rd with a crappy lineup? That was even more frustrating. You’re not wearing cleats anymore Felipe. It’s ok to step on some throats!

This, to an extent. SSS has to do with how you perform but who you face. It is more appropriate to discard 12 AB as SSS when that 12 AB’s over three games include at bats from Cain, Lincecum and Halladay, you just got a rally bad draw.

This line up makes me fucking sick for many reasons
The worst part being bork thinks that this is his “All defensive team” which gives him the “best chance to win” when timmys on the mound. Except for the fact that torres has nearly 3 times the range rowand does in center, and doesn’t air mail throws. Not to mention bengie is a massive defensive liability, and it’s been on display all season. This line up does nothing to benefit timmy, in fact it gives him a much worse chance of winning due to molina and rowands poor defense and the MASSIVE lack of offense with those two free outs in the 6th and 7th hole. This is fucking pathetic, I wish we had a manager that used something besides supersitions and “hunches” to create line ups.

They filmed a series of commercials Monday night that was supposed to last no more than 30 minutes. It took nearly two hours. It began with Marcus, a second baseman, saying it was cool having makeup applied to their faces. (“I haven’t done this since I was 5,” Marcus says, “back when I wanted to be a girl.”) It ended with Brian dropping his pants and jumping on Marcus, with the two giggling uncontrollably until the cameras stopped.
Ask me about my blog.
That family is seriously fucked up.

San Diego Padres right fielder Brian Giles, in the shower after a morning workout, steps out and screams for his brother.
“Marcus, Marcus, hurry up and get in here,” Brian Giles screams. “Chris is in here.”
Marcus Giles, seven years younger than Brian, yells, “Oh, boy,” strips his clothes and is showering within seconds.

A friend of mine told me to put LOL after everything I write because people can never tell when I’m joking. I don’t smile when telling jokes either. People don’t know when I’m joking or just being mean. It’s about 50/50.

OT: Minor League Averages
I posted this in Minor Lines, but I’ll ask here, too. Anyone know where to find the average triple slash line of players in each league? I’m trying to find the AVG/OBP/SLG of the average Eastern Legaue player.
