I wonder if they're calling him "Mr. April" in Detroit.

I know they were so thrilled with him that they were calling him "Mr. Detroit" back in April.

The Slippery Slope
Just to give you guys an idea of how close this thing is.....


If we leveled the playing field, so that the Top 5 here all had the 83 SP starts that JG has, and the 617 Offensive Game starts that JL has, and

Everyone scores the same number of RP points in the coming weeks, and

The following happens - none of which is ridiculous -

In his additional 18 offensive games, JG scores 81 points, and
In his additional 4 SP starts, JL scores 30 points, and
In his additional 61 offensive games TM scores 178 points, and in his additional 3 SP starts he scores 16 points, and
In his additional 24 offensive games PL scores 72 points and in his additional 12 SP starts he scores 130 points, and
In his additional 44 offensive games DB scores 132 points and in his additinal 10 starts he scores 100 points....

Then

We would have a 5-way tie.

Actually, it looks like TM is in the best position. He ought to be able to make his projections a lot more easily than it should be for anyone else to make theirs.

JL looks like he has the next easiest road, follwed by DB, PL, and JG.

Of course, "Everyone scoring the same number of RP points in the coming weeks" is a major unknown also.....

Some people, including people still near the top, have managed their rosters poorly, and they'll never make the maximum games played at all their positions.

[WhineAlert!]

Otsuka pitches the top of 9th in a tie game... gets 3 outs (and 2 Ks), but Blalock's error caused a run to score. An unearned run, which isn't the pitcher's fault, right? Then why the hell did Otsuka get the LOSS? Cuz he put men on base, tho it wasn't HIS fault that one of them scored?? Was it HIS fault that the Rangers couldn't score in the bottom of the 9th? Had the Rangers won in the bottom of the 9th, he would've gotten the win, sure. I like how so much importance is put on how the BATTERS DO that determines how the pitchers end up with a W, L, S or BS. :rolleyes:

I coulda sworn I had TM moved up after Monday's big day...



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Look at the numbers I edited into the blank scoresheet you posted for Monday. TM has more points than you, but you never moved him up.

That was the same order that you had everyone listed in; I didn't even realize until just now when I read your post above that TM had moved into second place off of Monday's scores.

I thought I had -- if so, my bad then!
(Maybe I just didn't wanna believe it! )
(Tho I'm really pretty sure I had! :p )

It seems a tad over-the-top for me to quote one of my own posts here...

But as Plaw's protege, I have to ask myself, "Would Plaw do it?"

Of course he would.

Rings quite true, yet again, doesn't it? We're just waiting for the final acceptance.

That is, unless Plaw is brainwashing you and has somehow convinced you to believe his web of lies. If that, I'm afraid you're on your own.

Very interesting, JG... What would happen if we apply these averages to everyone's remaining number of starts (this is probably how Plaw does his projections)? I wonder how the order would look?

I'd guess this is exactly what plaw does and that says I'll win it all :p

of course, any one with a brain knows that doesn't mean anything.

Hey Douche - Why don't you or Plaw, the mathemeticians, do that part?

PS - Apparently your Milledge didn't Lastings too long, huh? :p And now that you have Poo-hole back, what might you want for Howard?

you should give Howard to me, DB, since you robbed him from me when he was left on waivers. I remember!!

I wonder if everyone tried to take him that time or if it was just me.

or, in other words, it's a theoryc projection that is not even 0,01% likely to actually happen.

The Slippery Slope
The formula I use for making the projections is:

(OFPPG x 1458) + (SFPPG x 162) + (RPFP/Days Gone x 183)

Note: The last category, RPFP, is the total points by RPs divided by the number of days gone in the season, times 183 - the total number of days in the season.

The problem with the projections is that it is based to some extent on the performances of players who are no longer with our team, but have been replaced by better players through trades and free agent and waiver moves.

For example, DB's average FPPG for his SPs is 5.91

I certainly think that he'll do considerably better than that during the rest of the season.

A more accurate way to do it would be to take the FPPG averages of players currently on everyone's roster and project their points the rest of the way, and then add that projection to everyone's total up to this point.

Also, the RP category is hard to figure.

FPPG is relatively meaningless, since there is no limit on the number of games, so someone can get a lot more points with a lower FPPG average than someone else with a higher average if they have more appearances (see PL and TM).

The last prediction I made, I believe I had TM as the winner, followed by JL, DB, PL, and JG.

That's a good point. However, not necessarily more accurate. Cuz by then I should, for instance, have my offense back (D Lee & Sheffield, who've cost me A LOT) ... and not to mention who else might get hurt and lose significant time. BUT, a good point to consider.

I don't know where I got this reputation from....

It must be from all the mis-information that you give out. :p

I call 'em as I see 'em. No one is more objective than I am.

If I think I'm gonna finish first, I'll say so. If I don't, I'll say that also.

And yeah, I think that you're gonna finish 5th.

If DB and I were up to you in starts and offensive games played, you'd be in 5th place right now.

Just a matter of time....
