Hud is amazing. One gem after another, and he keeps out-gemming himself!

zero home runs last night. i will get more excited about the performance last night when it comes more consistently and against better competition.

you know there are reasons that the royals are the only professional team from the big 4 sports not to make a postseason appearance in the past 25 years...right?

Q: Who won the World Series last year?

Q: Who had the fewest Home Runs last year?

Hint: It's the same rough ridin' team!

miami has less hr's than us

mocat · « **Reply #3923 on:** May 14, 2013, 02:10:54 PM »

The point is not that HRs are detrimental to playoffs, the point is that HRs are very far down the list of important things in getting to the playoffs/World Series.

Their OPS+ was 4th best in the league. It's not about hr's specifically. blast said he wanted to see more consistency against better competition. blanton is what, 0-7 this year or whatever..
