Talented team, good starting pitching + Dustyball =

14-22 vs teams over .500
30-8 vs teams under .500

That would really suck considering we have a 4-0, 7-3, and whatever latos is (6-1?) going for us.

How does that record against teams over .500 stack up to the better teams in the league?

That I don't know.....to me it's more of a sign of what happens to Dustyball in the playoffs.

I'm excited for some west coast action over the next month. At least for the start times...

I'd imagine the Pirates are better. But that's because I know they're a good bit worse against the under-.500 group than 30-8. That's getting the damn job done against the "should-beats".

VERY BADLY! In the National League only the Marlins have less wins against >.500 teams.

Is this above .500 now, or above .500 when the games were played?

I hate mlb. How arizona is a blackout for me in hawaii just blows my fucking mind. Since hawaii has no team, all west coast teams are blacked out. Tho I get Lad and laa. So to me anything other than those two should not be blocked out. After 4 emails they even talked to me on the phone and still had no real answer. I asked them if since Tennessee didnt have a team if they were blacked out from all east coast and the guy asked if I was being a smart ass. I said no its an actual question based on the ridiculous rules set for hawaii. Ugh. Ok sorry. End rant.

The league hitting almost .300 vs Miley and his WHIP is 1.43.

He's a Steve Carlton/Tom Glavine hybrid tonight...

League MVP and Manager of the Year?

Kirk Gibson?
Don Baylor?
Lou Piniella?
Joe Torre?

I feel like I'm missing someone obvious...

Was Lou an MVP?

Was Frank Robinson a MOY?

Pretty sure Gibson is a given considering they are playing Zona.

Pete managed when the Reds stunk. Not sure he had a chance at ROY.
