myers was golden again today

5 shutout innings

Cha-ching! Money in the bank

As for the Kendrick bet, you guys went and got all Bill James up in here while I was at work. However, Wing's idea is pretty good. Because it removes the argument of him winning games simply because the Phils offense is pimp. However I am not interested in Lohse vs. Kendrick...

Over/under 10 wins for Kendrick - 10 was his number last year. Either he will be better or he will be worse. If he's worse, he won't survive the 5 innings needed to get wins because they are crushing. Or he could be a stud and the bullpen could blow it for my end of the deal.

I've got the over for $10.

Myers bet - $10
Kendrick bet (if you accept) $10

What was the other one we did where I put up $30?

ice grillin you

i bet 10 the phils would be .500 or under vs 30 bucks for you that they would be over .500

im not taking the kendrick bet when he got that amount of wins in a half season last year...now you want me to take the same number in a full season...not happening

I've seen you equate Kendrick to a #5.  A #5 should expect about 10 wins, if all goes to chalk.

Kendrick is going into his sophomore season, where the league has made adjiustments to him.  You've talked about his flyball/groundball ratio and how that is not condusive to success at CBP.

He also had 20 starts - about 2/3 of a season (he had 5, maybe 6 starts before the All-Star break).  I'd be interested to see his total innings between the minors and majors last season.

With all I see, I think 10 wins is a reasonable over/under.  What would you make it?

my bet wasnt number of wins...it was winning percentage. I wouldnt want the winner of the bet to get it on a 10-15 record vs a 9-5 record.

but icee is all about the weak sauce

Thank you for making my point.

A man says, "I'll bet you $50 I make this shot."  A chick says, "I'll bet you $50 that I make this shot, but only if the rotation on the ball is perfect, no one makes any noise during the shot, and only if you close your eyes and count silently to three while wishing me good thoughts."

And by "chick" I don't mean a woman either.  I know plenty of women who bet like men.  You, on the other hand, bet like a sissy.

Why is Moyer a travesty?

The only travesty on this team is that Eaton is there. He's a farging disgrace.

moyer physically cant pitch more than 5 innings anymore and he carrys a +5 era...hell be lucky to win ten games this year


but im not saying he specifically is a travesty...the 3-4-5 combo of those guys is a travesty
