Yunimania Applesauce: Brewers hit bombs, Theo hits the north side, Angels hit unemployment line
Meet the Mets
Greg Prince dances on the grave of the Phillies 2011 season. Needless to say, I approve.
ESPNNY continues to look back at the 1986 NLCS, which is one of the overlooked great series in Mets history. Those Astros unis? Not so great.
Uh, thanks for the kind words, K-Rod, but I wouldn't be waiting by the phone.
There's only one #frenchtober
The Brewers rode a big fifth inning to a Game 1 victory over the Cardinals. Zack Greinke did his best Jack Morris impression in a winning effort. And of course, the series is already getting contentious. You can make your own beast mode jokes.
Game 2 of the ALCS was rained out and will be made up this afternoon. Max Scherzer will toe the mound opposite Derek Holland as neither team is altering their rotation. The Tigers will be without Magglio Ordonez for the rest of the series due to a broken ankle. He'll be joining Delmon Young on the sidelines.
The Beyond the Box Score Playoff Machine still likes Texas to win it all. And I say, where were they when I was in Reno?
Somebody is missing the point about TV ratings again. Maybe if the major cable outlets actually promoted teams other than the big market franchises...
Baseball Nation takes a look back at every recent annoying postseason baseball promo. This is also part of the ratings problem I am sure.
Around MLB
LoHud Yankees things they should look into a new rightfielder to blame. Of course, the Yankee fans will probably take the #blamebeltran thing and ruin it by doing it unironically.
Ryan Howard might miss the beginning of the 2012 season with a torn achilles. What he won't be missing is a paycheck on that 5 year, 125 million dollar extension that starts next year
/end schadenfreude
This means Theo is totally going to Chicago. I wonder if they saw him at Hot Doug's, too.
The Angels also continue to shake up their front office. I can't imagine why. Seriously? A .248 OBP? Seriously?

While I largely agree with this
KRod should have exercised a little bit more control and a little less anger issues in that circumstance – i.e. outside the family room in the clubhouse.
Should have waited until they all got back to the house to tell him if he ever dissed his Mama again he’d pop him. Then maybe he should have just popped him anyway.
Seriously, it’s clear KRod had some anger issues. Mid heading to late twenties nitwit. It happens. He got help and hopefully those issues are behind him. I’ll be first on record to admit to some things I did in my 20s I’m not proud of.
That being said, if he’d take 2MIL to come back here, I’d sign him. Not gonna happen though.

I would agree re the shorts
but IIRC it was only worn once. For the long run, the worst were probably the Padres “taco” uniforms, followed by the Astros. Trivia (again , IIRC): the two teams that won a pennant wearing brown unis were the 1944 St. Louis Browns and the 1984 Padres.
What's the score, boys?

What's with the Carrot League baseball today?
An idea
@Let’s make baseball the longest reality series of the year. Before every game, instead of a traditional pregame show, let’s go into the house and see the players bicker and fight. Then after the game, the cameras can follow the players into the bars and watch them bicker and fight and smash a few cuties after hours. Ratings man, ratings man.
Of course, we’d get rid of David Wright. K and errors we can handle, but the vanilla personality just won’t cut it in reality TV land. Instead, we should sign Carlos Zambrano, Milton Bradley, K Rod too (only if his baby mama’s dad/father in law comes along), and let’s not forget about Jim Leyritz and Lenny Dykstrya (They probably can’t play much any more, but they are ratings fucking gold.
Bud Selig simply could not be commissioner in the RBL (Reality Baseball League). I lobby Howard Stern for commish, Bubba the Love Sponge for AL Pres, and Opie and Anthony as co-NL Presidents (by the way, they all hate each other, so we’d even get cool episodes featuring the not-so-boring administrators.)
Joe Buck, you’re done calling games. We’ll get Vince McMahan and Jesse the Body with Gorilla Monsoon sound bites sprinkled in. Too fake? Blogo – he’d be perfect in the post-literate America.@
Americans are such fucking hammer heads. They don’t read and they don’t think and you expect them to watch a moderately paced, thought provoking game like baseball? It’s not about the teams, it’s about the sport, but I like the sport and hope to hell they don’t change it just to get ratings.

Beast Mode
Maybe it’s because the greatest team in Mets history were a bunch of cocky mofos, but I love Beast Mode and I think the Brewers are a wonderful contrast to the sullen, corporate attitude of St. Louis. C’mon, this is baseball, not a courtroom. If you can’t act a little goofy and cocky, you’re in the wrong profession.
Also, for all the blather from the sports media about how St. Louis has the best fans in the world, I can’t believe how loud Milwaukee’s fans are. Also, they seem to be standing at all moments of the game.
Mark Cuban for owner! Save us from the Wilpons!

Kicking knowledge in the face.
But none of those guys didn't like what they were doing.
Haynesworth and Young both had bitter feuds with management, and they didn’t actually retire. Meche did retire, but because he felt he could no longer pitch effectively, and didn’t want to be paid if he couldn’t perform at the level expected of him.

I'd like to sign K-Rod again, but no matter how you slice it, he'd cost too much money
Even if he was somehow signed at the ‘discount’ price of $10 million dollars a year, we don’t particularly have the financial flexibility to give him $10 million dollars.

Even if they had finacal flexibility
I still would not pay a closer ten million dollars a year to pitch 70 innings a year. I’d rather sign a starting pitcher for that money or a couple of relievers and a bench player. There’s just better use of that money than KRod.
by graves9 on Oct 10, 2011 12:48 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I have no problem paying a quality, reliable closer up to $10 million or so
Generally speaking, if he’s a quality closer, he’s going to be worth between 1.0 and 2.0 WAR, so his performance and contract link up, more or less. Having a guy that you know is going to get that save and not give up the lead more often than not is also something that I think we undervalue a little bit here at AA. I felt the same, but a quote by Sandy Alderson kind of changed my mind; it had to do with having a closer who the team knows they can rely on in those high leverage situations, and how not having a guy the team can trust to close it out and end the game can be frustrating and have a negative effect on team morale and such.

I agree
Whether or not the “closer’s mentality” is an actual thing or a load of BS, you need someone to close out games for you, and if someone isn’t labeled as a closer, they just won’t do it. I don’t know why, but if you need to pay someone too much money to throw one inning a day, so be it.
2012 National League Wild Card Champion New York Mets
As I was saying in a FanPost I wrote about the closer situation a few weeks ago,
a lot of it is probably mental, and would be interesting thing to somehow study. A nurse spends her entire career as a nurse, and then someone suggests she become a doctor (because she’s experienced and knows a lot about the medical field), plenty will shrug the suggestion off citing that they don’t think they’re smart/skilled enough to be an actual doctor. Similarly, I bet that a lot of generic middle relievers (Bobby Parnell) don’t do as good as they should if given the closer’s role because they’re of a similar mentality, that they’re middle relievers, or set-up men, or whatever else, and that they might not necessarily have the “closer’s mentality”, or good enough skills, or whatever else. Generically, pitching in the 8th inning and earning a hold is the same exact thing as pitching in the 9th inning and earning a save, except that it’s the 8th inning, and not the 9th- as a pitcher, it’s imperative that you not allow a run, and preserve the team’s lead. There’s definitley a large degree of small sample sizes causing noise skewing the results, but time and time again you see guys who aren’t normally closers, such as set-up men, or generic middle relievers being called on to pitch in the 9th to save the game, and not getting it done. Bobby Parnell, who had a bunch of blown saves, and has noticeably worse numbers in High Leverage Situations. Jose Veras in Pittsburgh had 27 holds, but blew six saves when called on in the 9th. Chad Qualls, 22 holds, and 5 blown saves. Jesse Crain, 24 holds, and 6 blown saves. I don’t necessarily know what it is, other than small sample sizes of individuals that are being lumped together that really should be examined on a case-by-case basis, but it’s interesting and something I’ve noticed.

Something to note
is that a blown save can be earned without pitching the 9th. Those setup guys you mentioned could have earned those blown saves while in their normal, non-9th inning roles.
Save Jenrry Mejia!
Keep Reyes, Trade Wilpon.
I don't really wanna see K-Rod again
But anything is better than we have now, especially if he’d be open to making less money which I doubt.
I don’t really get all the hype around Heath Bell, he isn’t striking out batters as much and he is having his worst season since he left the mets.
2012 National League Wild Card Champion New York Mets
Could be a "buy low" situation (not that low is going to actually translate into little money, in this situation)
Depends on whether or not it’s just a little hiccup, and his K/9 rate goes back to being between 8-10 next season and his FB/HR goes back down, or if those are red flags of bigger problems. It’s happened to him before 2008, where the K/9 went down and he gave up more homers, and then he recovered in 2009. Looking at his Pitch f/x info, his fastball velocity in 2011 averaged 93.9 MPH; in 2010, it averaged 93.9; in 2009, again around 94 MPH. The biggest difference I see is, if Pitch f/x is identifying the pitches correctly, he dropped a few pitches from his selection in 2011 that were there in 2010 and before. PETCO and Citi both suppress home runs to a degree, so he wouldn’t suffer from going from a pitching friendly park to a hitter friendly one.
He’s going to cost too much for us, odds are, but if we could get him for a reasonable price/time frame, I wouldn’t really bat an eye

Oh, oh
He’s far from horrible at baseball, but based on the fact that over the course of his career, he has performed at an inferior level in High Leverage Situations (smaller sample size, of course) than he has in Medium and Low Leverage Situations, I don’t think it’s in the best interests of the team to have him closing out close games.

Because Jeff Mathis is such a great player
It boggles my mind
You can look at traditional stats, advanced stats, scouting reports, offensive stats, defensive stats, whatever- they’ll all say that Mike Napoli at his worst is about greater than or equal to Jeff Mathis at his best.
