NLD 34 - Here we go again

Speaking of ratings. Started working on luck factors. Only got fielding done today.

Jeep...   78.6%
Semper.   77.6%

Big M..   76.0%

Gbrooke   75.6%
Corky..   75.2%
Hawk...   74.8%
DJ.....   74.2%
JTJ....   73.7%


AT is far and away having the best fielding and a bit out of porportion to what you'd expect.

At the other end Hawk, and JTJ are getting the bad rolls.

In our Injury watch we have the following:
Ruiz: 16
Votto: 4
Frandsen: 3
Hunter:5

Ortiz: 8
Kepp: 4
Jay: 6

for us
Montero, playing platoon, has lost 12 (with six more to come) games in three injuries (compare to Ruiz)
Hill: 6
Wright: 2
Rios: 6

DJ
Pujols: 6
Zobrist: 2
Butler: 3


You'd think the guys on GB and AT's teams weren't injury-prone by the numbers above.

My wife is a nurse, and our good friends are a doctor-nurse couple. In Canada, health care is all about who you know...


Waiting for the cuffing on the side of the head.........

Joe

Yes, I'm surprised by fielding stats as my team has a league leading low in errors, Top 3 in DPs and Top 5 in OF assists.

On the other side, my daffy footed team ain't hitting into DPs and has a nice sense when to grab a steal or two.

By the way, I'm too waiting for Joey Votto to take an extended vacation.

Lost Rios for 2 and then Pagan goes down for the Max (3) tonight. Brutal. WTF

On the bright side we beat a LHSP scoring six runs tonight, but only 2 v Pettitte and without Montero.

I had my chance against Hawk's team and took that a called third strike

My team didn't show up and let two go at home.

Well, You're pitches have a lot of DPs, basically everyone except for GIO is above average.

You're playing three's at four places in the inf and playing a 3 at 2b is always a killer to the F Rat. It's actually surprising that your rating is this good. You are starting only three 2's and have a +1 catcher.

In fact your rating is quite a bit lower as that rating includes Moustakas at 3b v LHP. Playing seager both ways drops you below my D and pretty much even with Corky. I would suggest you have definitely over-performed your F-Rat.

Played AT. He didn't have an injuries. We lost Gomez for 3. We did go 1-1 v LHP however. Richard out pitched Lohse.

Wow! We won two tongiht! Yay! Could have easily swept if Pagan makes a 1-3 CFx with two out in the 9th.

Of course, we had our prerequisite injury. Here's what the list looks like for us:

Your Current Injuries
Pierre, Juan, through Game 137

Recently Off the Injured List
Rios, Alex, healthy for Game 130
Montero, Jesus, healthy for Game 133
Pagan, Angel, healthy for Game 133
Gomez, Mauro, healthy for Game 135

The stretch that killed us was losing Pierre for 15. I think we lost 12 of the games. Most of them close. Losing Pagain is a killer too because we play a 4 in CF. Luckily he's only missed three games on one injury.

Gotta gain at least six games to get out of the East for NLD35. Not sure we can do that. I guess GB *is* in our division and *IF* he loses some guys to injury (yeah, right) we might have a shot at catching him.

Looks like AT will take the West barring a collapse; likewise Corky. A little tighter in the East, but Hawk is in good shape. WC will probably be Stoney or Semper.

By these factors, Semper and Big A are the "luckiest" with a very high relative HR rating and one run record (Semper) and Pythag.

JTJ, GB and Big M are the unluckiest with bad HR rates and roll ratio(JTJ & Big M). Big M and GB have had tough luck in one runners.

Obviously doesnt include injuries. As we know AT and GB have been very lucky in this respect and others (JTJ Included I think) have had the opposite experience.

For what it's worth...

Just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

On a wierd note the season ends on my birthday lol. Hopefully I'll get a playoff berth as a birthday present.

Have a very Merry Christmas!!
