Seriously? You can't handle being politely disagreed with without playing the "I'm a real fan and you're not" card? Bring better arguments and leave the ad hominem crap at home next time.

Anyway,...

Fellow Tigers fan, strongly disagree with everything you said.

Managers just don't have much influence on the way any one game pans out. Over the course of an entire season, a manager might be...

This. FIP is good, but I think it's best to look at the components of FIP (K/9, BB/9, HR/9) individually so you can tailor your choices to your team's strengths and weaknesses. Got a bunch of...

In my experience, which at this point constitutes a pretty big sample size, neither batters' pull tendencies nor the shift options actually have any effect on the game. Pull hitters are just as...

Yeah, assuming you've got injuries at normal or high, I'd say just play him as a catcher. He's got a better chance of reaching his ceiling, he (probably) won't tear his UCL, and catcher is arguably...

Damn, Jose Quintana. That's an amazing K/BB ratio (and just generally amazing numbers).

Bonds is only 11th in OPS+? Who are the top three? (Or the whole top ten, if you don't mind.)

I understood that from the start.

Look: somebody had something cool happen in his game. He came to the forums to share it. The first two responses to his thread were people raining on his parade,...

Could you explain how either of those definitions contradicts anything I wrote? There's no need to be so rude, by the way.

It doesn't matter whether it barely scrapes over the fence or flies 600 feet—a homer is a homer. That's what I mean when I say that distance is cosmetic. It's fun to see a guy hit one 515 feet...

HR distance is cosmetic in real life too. So what?

It's 328 feet to left in Cincinatti. That's a mammoth home run any way you slice it.

I think your draft restrictions are going to be WAY too harsh. How many teams do you have in the league? If there are 24 or fewer, the expansion teams can't even get enough players to fill their...

This is just anecdotal, but I've gotten the sense that your leash gets shorter when you go to Win Now—an owner who expected a .500 season will now demand you win it all, for instance, and be quicker...

Retired numbers/reserved numbers

A very small suggestion: it'd be nice to have an option in the right-click menu, up near "Shortlist Player," to "Reserve Player Number." As long as the player was active—regardless of whether he was...

Nailed it. Enckell played his entire career in what's almost certainly the league's most extreme pitcher's park: .912 average (by far the strongest factor in the league), .922 doubles, .940 triples...

Sure, but how does 6% more playing time get you 30% more WAR when pretty much all of your rate stats are identical?

What is up with pitcher WAR?

I’m doing my little one-man “Veterans Committee,” looking at guys who fell through the cracks of the HoF milestones. There are two pitchers, Kyriakou and Enckell, who had too-short careers but peaked...

It depends on the era, but generally .270 is an above-average hitter. In the 1920s or '30s, it would've been pretty bad (league average was mostly .280-ish, sometimes as high as .290) but today it's...
