What is the situation? Dodgers away vs lefties 11-2 this season. There are some trends as well but when I see Padres on the road vs lefties I bet under.

this was in regards to Bauer, no trends just thought he's pitched a lot more like the stud he was supposed to become rather than the guy Arizona couldn't get rid of fast enough

someone talk me off NYY & StL while I head home on the train, the StL line is a joke and if there's any rain delay they're either scratching or pulling Yu and then I'm a huge favorite

had a minute to look it up...

In conclusion:

• While it might have some kind of subtle effect, Dickey’s knuckleball is not more ‘accurate’ in any meaningful way with the roof closed.
• Dickey’s knuckleball gets far more swings and misses when it rises/floats, especially up and away from right-handed batters.
• He can throw it harder to make that happen but also gets more lift if he has the wind at his back, and more lift + movement away from right-handed batters with the roof closed.
• The effect is much more pronounced on Dickey’s upper-70′s knuckleball than his lower-70′s offering, or his 65mph floater.
• The results are significant enough that if Dickey was starting for the Jays in a critical game there is a strong argument to be made in favour of closing the dome. (Or maybe a humidifier promotion? Hand fans for everyone in centre field? Starting the “hurricane” instead of the “wave”? The possibilities are endless

Do you want to talk about Tillman lined as the underdog? Why limit yourself to the last 8 games.

Tillman is 15-1 L16 lined ≥ 130. That goes back to Aug 6, 2011. The loss was his last start at Oakland lined 150 when the bullpen lost it for him in the 9th. Weaver hasn't allowed a HR in his last three starts. You have to go back to July 2, 2012 to see when Weaver went four consecutive starts without allowing a HR. That was 62 starts ago. Baltimore lead the league in HR. Come on in.

GW, why did you correlate your lean on Tillman with the home plate umpire?

 

[cogenman]

Jim Johnson totally worthless for the A's. They bring him in with a HUGE 9-2 lead and he still shits the bed. Might be the last time they bring him into a game.

i did not actually, just always list umpires when i look 'em up
