Message #5180 of 6634  *NEW* To :   Anonymous From :   Rob Reed   Subject :   Re: Gavin Floyd goes 8 1/3 innings before Mauer ends his no-hit bid Date :   5/7/08, 9:10am Here is what I just posted at playertrack.com: Great game again last night. I'm going to have to scour the sabermetric blogs to discover whether this is simply luck? His K:BB ratio is at about 1. He doesn't strike out a lot of batters, so the opposing team contact is there. I think this is worthy of note for those of you who are excited about Floyd: His last two games were against the anemic offense of Minnesota (13/14 in runs scored in the AL). His first two games were against the anemic (surprisingly) offense that was Detroit in early April. His games in between? A game versus the Yankees where he allowed 5 ER in 6 IP. And a game against the mostly anemic offense (so far) in Baltimore (11/14 in runs scored in the AL; 12/14 in AVG). My conclusion so far: I *WANT* to get excited here, and I think if I owned him (I don't in any of my leagues), I just couldn't pull the trigger to part with him. But, thew unbiased part of me thinks that would be a mistake. Sell high. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #5180 • Back to Topics 4471 reads
