    MLB Metrics 101: The Least Clutch Players of Baseball

    I honestly don't know, but it could be an up and down of performance in these situations or it could be that the team performed so much better in other situations that it masked these particular failures during that time. Kinda like the article claims, if the worst thing you can say is Goldy...

    MLB Metrics 101: The Least Clutch Players of Baseball

    The whole team has been poor this season in particular critical situations. We are second to last in scoring a runner on 3B with less than 2 outs and we are second to last in scoring a runner from 2B with no outs.

    Rickey played for 8 teams, Alomar for 7 teams. Both in the HOF Kenny Lofton played for 11 teams, so did Todd Zeile.

    Will the Dbacks forum hit the 100,000 post mark before the end of the season?

    http://forum.diamondbacksbullpen.org/index.php It's just as active as this forum. Also https://www.azsnakepit.com/ Both have good in depth content and analysis.

    The MLB trade deadline thread (trades are already happening)

    Corbin has been a top 10 SP in the NL since the ASB posting a 2.52 ERA in 57.2 IP (1.3 WAR) besting all DBacks SPs. In the last month he's been a top 5 SP in the NL.

    Trevor Bauer 6 IP - No hits..

    Just for Jon.... Trevor Bauer is 7-0 with a 2.42 ERA in his last 8 starts and even has a scoreless 0.2 IP relief appearance in the middle of that.

    Will the Dbacks forum hit the 100,000 post mark before the end of the season?

    Tough for this forum to pick up traction, there is quality competition for DBacks forums out there. This forum seems mostly Suns and Cardinal fans that follow baseball as opposed to primary DBacks fans.

    Trading Brandon Drury may haunt the Braves for a long time

    Drury's going to be trade bait this off season, right? In the dog house and has hardly seen the field this month.

    Yeah, I only got to watch the first 5 IP, but this was Grienke's win. No doubt about that.

    Complete games

    It's not jet lag, it's effort per pitch plain and simple. Today's SP throw harder per pitch than ever before. Add on that not as many "gimme outs" in the lineup as before that a pitcher could take off and the fact that an average reliever the first time through the order is often a better...

    That wild and crazy Greinke!!

    Don't all pitchers have a personality disorder of some flavor? ;)

    Dodgers @ Dbacks series thread Aug 8th - Aug 10th

    More interesting numbers: [H]ere’s a look back at the post-All-Star break stretch, by the numbers. .248 The D-backs rank just 22nd with a .248 average when runners are in scoring position, which actually is a tick better than their overall batting average after the All-Star break of .242...

    The MLB trade deadline thread (trades are already happening)

    Interstingly, Corbin is currently 22nd in WAR for ERA qualified NL SP (29th for those with at least 100 IP). Outside of 2013, his ERA is often inflated by a high BABIP. At some point the organization needs to decide if he's a high BABIP pitcher, which would deflate his value, or if he's been...

    The game of TTOs

    Baseball has never looked quite like it does now, for better and for worse. Defenders are getting involved in play less than ever and stolen bases are at a 45-year low, but on the other hand, the game is populated by beastlike men capable of spectacular feats of power. And the sport is only...

    Grabbing Yu would be a big addition, but I don't know that we have the players to make a deal with TEX. Also, our SP are doing well enough as a rotation to make the FO look for production elsewhere.
