[quote:7aa56325a1] same lousy rating [/quote:7aa56325a1]
Actually, your rating goes up quite a bit with your actual IP from your relievers (wm did that *very* early) and also with Bruney v Wickman. We never redid the ratings for the actual IP or the changes that were made.
I also think your pitching which, ratings-wise, was the worst in the league went up, but still majorly overperformed their numbers to finish in the middle of the pack.
Your team took advantage of Wrigley field for sure. I'm surprise to some extent because outside of your big 3 hitters, the rest really aren't very good v RHP.
Must have been the right combo however as you killed us this year. Heck, we made your whole season by ourselve, I think WM calced that we went 3- 10 against you counting the playoffs. :( So, I guess it was karma or something, but for some reason (that I haven't figured out) we clearly don't match up with you. You'd figure our hard RHSP's would, and our 6 LHB's v all the hard RHP would, but... :?: what can I say?
The ratings usually miss on one team under and one team over and Bonds teams always seem to do better than the ratings would indicate.
I'll try to make sure your rating is bad again next time. Remember that when I start giving you advice during the draft ;)
