@AnthonyDiComo What are you talking about?! We have four guys on this roster who have at least three years as a full-time, major-league starting shortstop in their history.
If Lindor is ever out more than a spell, shortstop defense is the least of our worries.
Yes!! @EvidenceProf. Not only are the roadside tests junk science (in New Jersey, they’re only good to show probable cause for the Alcotest), so is the science of breathe alcohol. There is no scientific link between breath alcohol and intoxication.
On Rabia’s point: I’ve defended cases in New Jersey, where the defendant came up with .0 alcohol, and no drugs in the urine test and the state move forward with prosecution on the argument that the test does not cover all drugs, and the officer’s believe the person is intoxicated
@EvidenceProf@Undisclosedpod Hi. Attorney in Toms River. Wasn’t around for the Heale case, but I know all the players well. One thing can’t find is what hospital was Mason first taken to? Ocean Medical Center in Brick is a world class hospital. Community Hospital in TR is a malpractice attorney’s dream.
@notgaetti I remember that HoF voters in the 90s considered 15 wins average per year to be a benchmark for people who didn’t pitch long enough to win 300 games. Stieb was at 14 per. It’s silly, but I think that was part of the problem.
#NEPTA how Crime Dawg and Carlos Delgado are almost the EXACT same player with an identical rWAR/162 of 3.5. Crime Dawg has slightly more counting stats but also 425 more games played. Delgado leads in all rate stats except BA where he trails by .004.#DelgadoForTheHall@notgaetti
every time I see an Angels highlight it's like "Mike Trout hit three homes runs and raised his average to .528 while Shohei Ohtani did something that hasn't been done since 'Tungsten Arm' O'Doyle of the 1921 Akron Groomsmen, as the Tigers defeated the Angels 8-3"
NEPTA Phil Niekro (not even @notgaetti) and his RHS in 1978.
How can a Hall of Famer within a 97 career rWAR have a random huge season?
By garnering over 10% of his total career WAR in his year 39 season.
