Open Thread: Game 6 - A's vs. Mariners (cont.)
After having some control issues early in the game, Trevor Cahill has settled down, keeping the Mariners off the board. In parallel, the A's hitters are making Bedard look like something special, matching Cahill zero for zero.

I was on your side, until a someone explained to me at some length why it is not a zombie film.
Basically, because they’re ill rather than resurrected, they’re not zombies.

It is a series that we could have easily swept instead it looks like we can get rolled.
By the way why no Garciaparra? I thought that he was supposed to be here to hit the lefties.
I would think Bedard would be one of the best left handed pitchers that we will face.

there's no way anybody could tell the difference between a .794 and .800 OPS hitter of the course of a season.
it’s essentially the same thing. And for the A’s, and third baseman .800 OPS would be only somethign to dream about.

you are correct.
poor point to make on my part. But still. It is ridiculous to say that Chavez hasn’t OPSed .800 since 2004 when he put up .794 and .786 lines in the seasons immediately following. It’s just using the number .800 as a completely arbitrary cut off.
All the same, i will agree with the premise that Chavez has been injured crap for a long time.

My point wasn't really analytical.
I used a goofy stat that, while misleading, nevertheless does illustrate the general downward trend in Eric Chavez’s career.

is all I was getting at.

I was just surprised when you listed that stat, so i went to look it up and thought it was worth mentioning that he effectively did OPS .800 in ’05 and ’06.

800's not that low for a 3rd baseman
Only six AL 3rd basemen OPS’d over .800 in 2008… A-Rod, Longoria, Blalock, Blake, Mora, Guillen.
If Chavez is close to 2006 form this season, we couldn’t do much better.

"If you hit .440 with 20 bombs, you don't have to do s---. You don't have to bring a glove to practice, just hit and leave whenever you want. You can bring a 40 and smoke a cigarette and call me from the parking lot asking me what time the game is, and I'll tell you. You can even say 'F--- you, Steve!' Actually, don't say that, that wouldn't be very nice." -Steve Friend, Head Coach, Chabot College Gladiators Baseball

"Their Triple-A rotation, led by Trevor Cahill and Brett Anderson, could be better than some big-league rotations; Michael Ynoa is the best Latin American prospect of the decade; 2008 draftees Jemile Weeks and Rashun Dixon bring much-needed tools to an advanced group of hitters." - BaseballProspectus.com
