I think JHey will put up better numbers across the board than the projections listed in this blog. I would day Upton and Uggla’s numbers are probably close to right. I would give Prado a few more homeruns than 11 and I doubt Simmons will hit .290 and OBP .350. From what I’ve seen he’s a pretty wild hacker and I don’t see that improving over an offseason.
Medlen is good, but imo not 2.94 ERA over a full season as a SP, good.
Got to give Minor more credit than 11-10, 3.76. The W/L record might not be far off, but he improved enough in my eyes last year that I can see him having an ERA in the 3.4 range. He will be a standout for the Braves this season.

I do not feel comfortable saying Gaylord Perry’s form of cheating was better or worse or more moral or less moral than Barry Bonds’s form of cheating.
I do. Perry altered the ball not his body, and the effect of altering one’s body through PEDs more greatly influences performance than throwing spitters. Perry’s annual numbers, though mostly solid to outstanding, were never off the charts like Bond’s numbers.
And not incidentally, when Perry was caught throwing spitters, he was tossed from games (and, I think, fined). Was the penalty sufficient for repeated offenses? No, I don’t think so. Suspensions and stiff fines might have better worked with Perry.

I’m a little worried about our starting pitching for this year. I know Medlen will be good and I mentioned Minor, but Hudson is another year older and his health seems to be in question every year the last few. Maholm is just a 5 guy that eats innings and gives up a lot of homeruns. Teheran and Delgado you just don’t know. Safe to say that I think Beachy will be very welcomed back in July, or whenever he’s supposed to return.

I graduated from pharmacy school with a BS in1963 and was licensed in that year. I held a valid licence until 2010. I legally dispensed both amphetamines and anabolic (tissue building) steriods routinely during the years I was actively practicing in retail pharmacy. The availability of both classes of drugs via prescribing physicians was
never questioned unless a given prescriber was determined to be abusing his/her
license to dispense these drugs by the authorities. My point is fter they were deemed to be illegal for use by the sports world, they were and still are legal for the general public as long as they are obtained with a valid prescription from a licensed physician.
However, the number of prescriptions written for amphetamines today is negliable compared to the amount that were prescribed in the 1960-1990 period because of abuse and misuse.

Biggio was a 7 time allstar, and excelled at 3 positions, in addition to being a great hitter. Also great intangibles.

I wouldn’t call Biggio a great hitter nor do I think he is hall worthy. Hitting 300 4 times and being a career 280 hitter is solid but not great. I understand that he has 3000 hits but I don’t think that should be the end all argument on why a guy should be put in the hall.

Growing up, I and my siblings were told by my mother, grandmother and her siblings that we were part Indian. The best estimates would make me around 1/16th Indian (one of the N.Carolina tribes). My youngest sister has done a lot of family genealogy research and says that it is hard to prove because birth records back in my American Indian great grandmother’s era were poor at best, non-existent or not archived. But the oral history back to my grandmother, her siblings, children, etc. was very strong and consistent. You only had to look at my grandmother to know she was part Indian. So I firmly believe that I am part Indian. Given that, this lifelong Braves fans is not offended by the Indian logo – or even Chief Knockahoma. I definitely prefer the Indian smiling as to snarling.

I’m going to first say that discussions about who deserves to be in the HoF, unless they involve someone like Babe Ruth, generally devolve into pointless drivel. Adding the PEDs issue just muddies the drivel more.
And now my own contribution: I think it’s funny how some voters will talk about “first-ballot HoFers” when making their choices. I mean, if you’d vote for the guy, then vote for him. If that player makes it on the “first ballot,” then that will be self-acting. There’s no category for “really super-duper HoFers.” (Maybe there should be – feel free to petition Cooperstown).

Shaun: All this is about writers taking a stand to feel good about themselves. If they thought about it, they would realize this is the first time in history that voters have been concerned with the bastardization of baseball, eroding fairness, etc.
Good points. I get a kick out of the outrage here by self-righteous voters and writers. The problem with this mess is a bunch of writers and voters have somehow become experts on deciding who did/didn’t use performance enhancers. Empty statements like “clean on and off the field ‘ attached to some players…….exactly how did we conclude this? It’s odd how smart these folks think they are and much of what they believe may/may not have a shread of truth attached to it. We clamor for Biggio to get in, but how have we concluded that he’s clean? Gaylord Perry’s cheating was fun trying to catch him and he’s in the hall. What a farce.

Yes, Simmons is elite and you don’t give him up. Ozzie Smith was a Card’s foundation for more than a decade and SImmon’s looks to have the potential to have the same level of impact.

Anyone who thinks Biggio is not HOF worthy hasn’t looked at his stats very well. He averaged 174 hits a year, led the league in doubles and runs scored several years. Tho not a homer hitter, he still averaged 17 a year. 7 time AS, 4 or 5 GG’s. MVP votes 4-5 times. Yeah, I’d take him.

Yep… there was a good article on CAC I believe yesterday about the team…. if we go with the optimistic views on the rotation, which aren’t entirely wrong, we’re a 90+ win team. But there is always the more realistic view that the guys aren’t prime time yet and they struggle… if any part of the team does, it’ll start in the rotation. Just have to wait and see.

Early in his career I could see why someone would trade Ozzie because as great as he was defensively he wasn’t very good offensively. He worked at it and got much better though.
Also, when comparing Simmons with Ozzie I think you have to consider that both make unreal plays getting to balls but Simmons has a better arm and more upside offensively after 1 year, IMO
No way I’d trade him for Andrew Mc either.

Justin Upton would provide a better batting line than his brother BJ, I’d think. We just gave 75 million to a guy who has a 242 AVG and 316 OBP over the past 4 years…. Justin Upton would be a huge upgrade over what we have right now in my opinion. Even in Justin’s down years he’s maintained his OBP output. Even with his concerns about hitting away from Arizona I’d still want him. Great defender in a corner spot, only 25 years old with 3 years 39 million remaining on his contract which is a huge bargain… I mean Shane Victorino a bum was able to land the same deal in FA…

For starters, home field advantage is a real thing, and most players hit better at home than they do on the road
true, but not over 200 points worth. even so it is his actual away numbers that worry me. the big split just calls your attention to it. Granted he would likely approve, but the NL East parks are not all that easy other than Phil. so I’m saying he brings that away OPS up by 50-70 points and hits around 800, bur he also at least so far has an off-again on-again history year by year
its all just trying to come up with a somewhat educated guess. he might get to a new situation here and blossom, nobody knows
DS1
January 9th, 2013

I don’t know nolie, when you look at both guys overall numbers, Rice was only slightly better offensively. (OBP, OPS and OPS+)
But when you look at the home away splits for Rice, he was definitely a Fenway man.
And he wasn’t much to speak of defensively. And Murph played catcher when he came up.
Gotta say if I’m choosing one of them in their prime, I’d take the guy who can play in the field.

With all due respect do you think number of years played, number of games played, getting hit by pitchers when he wore the Bonds body armour all over his left arm or MVP considerations should have anything to do with whether someone is one of the greatest players to play.

Justin Upton is still only 25 years old. He’s been in the Major Leagues since he was 19 years old. I think he’s a player we’ll see get better and better. We havent seen the best of Justin yet… He might not be a Cornerstone Player, Team Leader type, but still he’s a really good young player. Probably the reason they wanna trade him… He isn’t a leader they want him to be. He’s produced a career 832 OPS, MVP Consideration twice, 2 All Stars, and a Silver Slugger all before 25 years old.. 20/20 Gold Glove Caliber Corner Outfielder only making 13 million a season for the next 3 years.

If you really dig into their career numbers, it’s eerie how close the two players were in numbers. Rice had the better average and a better slugging percentage, but they were really close in PA’s and most offensive categories. Murph was better at taking a walk, which compensated somewhat for his lower average.
Biggest difference is the drop off.

prolly the biggest difference as far as HOF consideration is the batting averages . Rice near 300 at a time when it was still considered one of the biggies, Murph 265ish, would be one of the lowest in the Hall and from an outfielder no less
only one who was less would be Killebrew and he had 570 or so homers back when they were all natural

Typical response by you Nolie. I didn’t say anything to or about you. Yet you feel the need to jump on accuse me of all kind of things.
That should serve you well in your Mental health career.

I am out of here for a while.
Not going to continue to give Nolie the attention he craves. Otherwise why would he engage someone about a subject that has nothing to do with him??

Does anybody around here use a neti pot? The sinus cleaning thing shaped like a tea pot. Well I read online AFTER I used mine yesterday that you aren’t supposed to use regular tap water. Two people in Louisiana died from a brain eating parasite that was in their water. Now why couldn’t I have read this before I used the darn thing. Oh and symtoms don’t start until five days after that nasty parasite enters your sinus.
