Sanchez is totally capable of getting three outs. But I would rather have PH for him.
Mark DeRosa is playing exactly the same amount of professional baseball as his adopted father, these days.

That you got ripped off? Why certainly.
Adoptive father of the enigmatic Michael Sandoval, and living vicariously through his proximity to Joe Mauer and the Panda.
It was an engineering textbook written by the professor and had to be the newest edition. Of course I was going to be ripped off, that wasn’t even a question.
At least I was able to return my $180 textbook that my professor said WASN’T EVEN REQUIRED. Agh, I hate college textbooks.

Once one of my professors was in the middle of writing a textbook, so we were able to buy the unfinished draft for $10 and use it. It was missing a ton of chapters and had a lot of grammatical errors, but hey, it was a large, cheap textbook. I wasn’t complaining.

100 isn’t a magical number where pitchers just implode
it’s simply arbitrary. he had a good inning in the 8th, so he should go back out there.

yeah but
1) Sanchez doesn’t have a lot of stamina
2) leading off with a pitcher late in a one run game is one of those quiet WPA killers
Mark DeRosa is playing exactly the same amount of professional baseball as his adopted father, these days.
Well, that’s why you have a quick pitch. There was signs to indicate that Sanchez was still pitching well, but if it becomes more clear he’s losing it, take him out, which he did.
by kingofthacove on Aug 30, 2010 9:45 PM PDT up reply actions
but you’ve already blown your opportunity to have a real hitter lead off the 8th.

I don’t mind the decision to use him, but leave him in if you’re going to. He had a runner on with no outs last inning too.

Way, way, WAYYYYYYY too much in love with lefty-lefty pitching matchups. Geez, what an idiot.
Why couldn't McCovey have hit the ball just three feet higher?
Not really
considering Fowler is switch and he took Sanchez out when the lefty comes up.

You always have to be one step ahead of your drunk friends
--Daisy Owl
People always make those comments on ANY decision that is logical either way, just in the case that it if the worst happens, they can point to it.
Sanchez had a good 8th inning. The reason to take him out relied on a baseball misconception that 100 is some magical number that kills pitcher. If Sanchez had, for example, 91 pitches, no one questions that decision to put him back in. If Sanchez had a shaky 8th, yes, it makes sense to take him out, but he didn’t, so give him a chance to finish it. If he doesn’t look good starting the 8th, bring in your reliable best reliever to finish it.
Why is that “SO RETARDED?”
by kingofthacove on Aug 30, 2010 10:04 PM PDT up reply actions
100 isn’t some magical number, but Sanchez often loses it after that point and he often loses it very quickly.
He was leading off the eighth inning. The Giants had only a one run lead. There is no reason to leave him in.

it’s not a guaranteed run, no, but you certainly have a much better chance with someone who doesn’t have a career line of .109/.142/.122 at the plate.
Jose Guillen, for example.

It’s not a much better chance for the sole fact that there’s very little chance in the first place. Assuming Torres and Sanchez do the same things, our chances to score a run aren’t very high simply based on giving Jose Guillen one bat over Sanchez.
I can completely understand why Bochy thinks Sanchez pitching the 9th outweighs this.

Replacing one batter does not have a significant difference in most small contexts, especially in measuring expected run value over 1 inning. If you calculated the formula: [(Guillen + Torres + Sanchez)/PA] / [(Sanchez + Torres + Sanchez)/PA] I’m sure you’d get a very small number above 1.

re-read my formula. It’s basically measuring the factor in which 1-2-3a is better than 1-2-3b. If Guillen’s value is 2x more than Sanchez’s, the factor is bigger than if it’s 1.1x bigger.
by kingofthacove on Aug 30, 2010 10:37 PM PDT up reply actions
in that case
Sanchez is 30% worse than average.
Torres (post approach change) is about 30% above average.
FSanch is almost average
Guillen is exactly average
so, quick and dirty
(1+1.3+1)/(-.3+1.3+1) = 1.65.

using the '99-'02 RE chart
and an average offense (which the Giants have)
With 0 on and 0 out, the RE is .55.
With 0 on and 1 out, which is basically what you’re getting with Sanchez, the RE is .297. If you adjust both numbers a little down for the lowered run context we’re in, and adjust the 2nd a little bit up because Sanchez isn’t actually a guaranteed out, my hypotheticals are pretty close.

No.
The reason to take him out was based on the following things (from my perspective):
-Sanchez is a notoriously low-stamina pitcher, with one complete game in his career. Furthermore, he’s a headcase who tends to get wonky in tense situations, such as the 9th inning with a 1-run lead.
-He was leading off the 8th. Great time to try to get some insurance runs with the top of the order coming up, especially with some decent hitters on the bench.
-We knew that he’d give up a baserunner in the 9th and get yanked anyway, because that’s what happens every single god damn time Bochy does this, so why not pull him ahead of time?

I gave up on the the Giants reaching the postseason a few weeks ago. Since then, there has been a lot less anger in my life.

What do you mean fuck the bullpen?
Wilson can’t catch it he can only throw it. Easy fly ball to right. Ross butchered it. If Wilson starts the inning as he should have they win the game.
That was more than a heartbreaker.

I seriously doubt that
I think the frantic re-write would’ve come from the Giants actually holding the 1-0 lead.
Why couldn't McCovey have hit the ball just three feet higher?
i think that one was the rewrite. the one going up right now was probably the one he had written before.

Another classic.
When the Giants were the better team, way back when, it wasn’t a guarantee that they’d win more often than not. Now that they’re most certainly not the better team, they seemingly never win the games they “should” win. I don’t know what to make of Cody Ross now. I know Jose Guillen is atrocious in the field, but now I have to at least accept that Ross can’t play right at AT&T during a playoff run.
