Spider-Man is still misunderstood. Hulk turns green. Thor has a cute loft in the Castro district of SF, where he lives with his longtime partner, Beast.
Can’t wait for this season to begin. 48 days until pitchers and catchers report. I’m hoping to go to ST for the first time. April 6th can’t come soon enough for me.
They are still the AL champs. And they have one hell of a line up. But their BP won’t be as reliable. I figure they’re good for about 89-92 wins. But it won’t be good enough to overcome our 94 wins.
I remember when Ted Williams managed the Rangers (and the Senators before) for a few seasons, and with his typical candor described himself as the worst manager ever. He was named Manager of the Year for one of those seasons in Washington, but he correctly identified his problem as impatience with talent lesser than his own. Williams was not only one of the great hitters of any era, he was also someone who played almost out of instinct. As a result, he was fairly incapable of telling some young kid how to correct a flaw in his swing or how to better read a breaking ball, because he never had to really intellectualize the experience. He just did.
So it may well be with Ryan. Nolan Ryan was a physical freak who played at a level in his 40s far elevated beyond most of the league against players half his age. I listed his stats with the Angels here a few days ago, but one showed that he averaged 20 GG per season over those 8 years in Anaheim.
He now co-owns a team in an era when a starter who can get his team through the 6th inning can qualify for a “Quality Start” and thus can hand the ball over to a bucket brigade of late-inning specialists who will attempt to shepherd the game through the last out of the 9th. This same starter can and often does earn both respect and millions of dollars per season.
This is not the game Ryan played.
He has stated that he wants his pitchers to stretch out their games and work deeper towards the 9th, but I wonder if his ambition will lead to fatigue and premature wear on a pitching rotation which has come up in a different era, one in which college teams now have closers. We saw Ogando wilt in the second half of the season, and Feliz is going to now try to work far more innings per season than he has in any of his past pro years. Ogando pitched 169 innings in 2011, but 105 of those were before the ASG, over 17 starts, while the rest of the season saw him pitch just 64 innings over 12 remaining starts.
Feliz, meanwhile, hasn’t pitched as many as 70 innings per season as a pro, and the team will now ask him to double or even triple that amount in 2012.
And, assuming they do sign Darvish, he’ll be asked for that same level of productivity, but working from a 5 man rotation instead of 6.
It is always possible that Ryan’s wish for more output from the starters will be nixed by Daniels and Washington (as it should be), but I think the loss of Wilson will be felt in that rotation as a whole.
Hey everyone! Ive been reading halos heaven since about 2005 but I was too lazy to join the community until now. I can’t wait for the season to start and join in on all the game threads with all you guys, it should be fun :)
It all depends on health. Kendrys, the pitching and Albert need to be and STAY healthy for a smooth-ish run into the postseason. Any big injuries and we might be on the outside looking in again.
Too much expectations. Teams that sign that much talent usually take a year to gel. Weaver or Haren probably misses significant time due to injury, CJ Wilson probably is slightly worse than league average, Downs comes back to earth and Pujols’ elbow flairs up and is significantly ineffective until after the ASB.
Kendrick gets traded midseason, Mike Trout comes up and looks Brandon Wood-like and everyone laments about how we should have traded him, Walden needs Tommy Johns, and Ervin Santana’s fro he grew to a comical size in the offseason is the only redeeming factor.
Actually, I don’t see a 100-win season, but I think 97 wins will be enough to win the AL. The postseason is where we will really shine and dominate with out tremendous 3 (or 4) man rotation.
They’ll be up in the 90’s with a shot at the wild card. I’m predicting Texas stays strong for one more year and might barely beat out the Angels by a game or two.
Of course, i hope I’m wrong. just tempering the expectations. :)
On the plus side interleague is against the NL West and there are plenty of games against Oakland and Seattle. However we there’s not much protection for Albert and an unproven closer.
A lot depends on us beating the teams we should beat
and we don’t necessarily do that. At a minimum, we need a combined 27/38 against Oakland and Seattle plus season winds against the Twins, Royals, Orioles, Indians, White Sox. Then if we can take few season series from the likes of the Yankees, Red Sox, Rays, Tigers, Blue Jays and the stRangers, we should have about 97 wins.
Our inability last season to beat the teams we should’ve beat (the Royals and Orioles, are you friggin’ kidding me?) really bit us in the ass last season. Not too mention getting totally pimped by Tejas. Still, on paper, I like our chances at 94 wins. Now we just gotta go out and play our game.
And I would take much satisfaction seeing Nolan Ryan with the grotesquely contorted/constipated look on his Jabba-like face as his team, once again, fails expectations.
I really think if everybody lives up to their billing and we get what we expect from the guys we had in place, then I think we can realistically win a 100 games!
Hey guys A's fan here...have any of you seen the epic meltdown happening at Athletics Nation?
I got banned from that crappy site because they are all a ton of absolutely insufferable dorks who made me completely embarrassed to be an A’s fan. They overly care about stats that have absolutely no bearing on real world situations and I went out of my way just to mess with them and thankfully got banned. Its just a ton of nerds trying to outdo each other in terms of making extremely boring graphs and tables. I like talking about baseball, not accounting and science. Nice job nerds, you ruined the game I love and did your damnedest to make it as piss boring as possible. What a waste of humanity over there. I want to give every single poster there an atomic wedgie and stuff them in a locker.
I’m still an A’s fan but I’m bowing down to you guys til 2014 because hey, at least youre from California, and I despise the Rangers and think Pujols is the man. I hope you dudes win 120 games this year, HA!

I know, I was just being a jerk
though I honestly think they’ve played a bit above their heads (particularly their rotation) the last couple years, and will come back to Earth a bit.
By the way, I base that on little more than just a gut feeling. But their rotation going into 2012 I think is nothing more than one giant ?.
Caseys Kiss of Death - January 1, 2012
Except for Yu Darvish.
He’s going 33-0, with a sub-1.00 ERA. Remember, Jon Daniels has been scouting him since he was in pre-school, so he’s a sure bet.

Texas' rotation

Does anyone know for sure if Trout is still ROTY eligible in 2012?
Because the standard is 130 at-bats from what I read. He had 123 ABs, but had 135 PAs.

MLB changed it's mind and restored his eligibility

and walden wins reliver of the year by breaking Mariano Rivera’s career save record………in one season.

For the record
I predict 117 wins. As a bonus. Pujols MVP, Weaver CY, and Trout ROY.

Remember,
Oakland has just gutted their pitching staff and the big move by the Mariners was to re-sign Sherril.

I really think if everybody lives up to their billing and we get what we expect from the guys we had in place, then I think we can realistically win a 100 games!

Hey guys A's fan here...have any of you seen the epic meltdown happening at Athletics Nation?
I got banned from that crappy site because they are all a ton of absolutely insufferable dorks who made me completely embarrassed to be an A’s fan. They overly care about stats that have absolutely no bearing on real world situations and I went out of my way just to mess with them and thankfully got banned. Its just a ton of nerds trying to outdo each other in terms of making extremely boring graphs and tables. I like talking about baseball, not accounting and science. Nice job nerds, you ruined the game I love and did your damnedest to make it as piss boring as possible. What a waste of humanity over there. I want to give every single poster there an atomic wedgie and stuff them in a locker.
I’m still an A’s fan but I’m bowing down to you guys til 2014 because hey, at least youre from California, and I despise the Rangers and think Pujols is the man. I hope you dudes win 120 games this year, HA!
PS: ATHLETICS NATION CAN KISS MY BLACK ASS. EVERYONE SUCKS AND IS A DOUCHE EXCEPT OPTIMISTPRIME, HE COOL. PL78, OVER AND OUT.
