Bob Brenly: "I know we've been talking a lot about advanced metrics lately. How about O-P-O-P-I-P? Opponents Pissed Off Per Inning Played. A.J. is the all-time leader in that category."

Peavy curve is nasty.

I like OPOPIP.

And nothing could be worse than Kenny. He's done some good stuff, but what has he done recently?

He got Dunn. That's basically it. Everything else has fallen through.

I believe it was Theo who said that 10 years is the approximate time that a GM is effective with one team. Going by that notion, the Hahn era should begin soon, as Kenny is now in his 12th year as GM.

Yeah...actually both pitchers have nasty curves going today...

I do wish the sox were in the NL. Not because of the double switches and strats but they own the NL.

The curve must be coming out of his hand about the same as a fastball or changeup. DeJesus took one, but couldn't lay off the other.

Lol...they do have the 2nd best record (i think) in interleague play....but it's a watered down record. Hell, no one else in the AL gets to play the Cubs 6 times a yr.

He was complimenting AJ for his knowledge of the game when he said that though.

Brenly was :fap:ing to AJ the whole time he was talking about him.

 

[Capt. Serious]
