pops, u track total pitches for starters? i remember a system posted last year or maybe the year before about how poorly starters perform the start after a certain pitch count, maybe 125? reason i ask is that jimenez just threw 130 today and will be going against super-over Arizona this weekend...could be a spot for an over IMO

if it's not in the box score i dont track it. but if there was a site that had it daily i prob would but would need balls and strikes on starting pitcher as well and same for pigs and could use it for ump's as well. would also like to get fly out vs ground outs in the same location. i believe it was that guy from ND that was looking at that data

I played baseball thru college and I've never seen a professional umpire have a worse "strike zone" that that of the HP ump in the Houston game today. There was NO such thing as an outside part of the plate. None. Oswalt knew what he was in for quickly in this game, thus him being tossed after 2 1/3 innings. Keep an eye on that dipshit umpire.

hohn is not on my watch list. wolf at 1o-9u, t welke 8o-2u and davidson at 2o-9u have a much better chance of making the waldo list but still need objective eyes to watch them work b4 they do

i'm not sure you listed your b cols correctly. but ar and as is the number of innings the starting pitcher for each team pitch for that specific game. at and au are the number of earned runs they each gave up, and av and aw are the number of earned runs that the home and visiting pigs gave up for the game (all relief pitchers)

be and bf are money line cats (brackets where the opening money line for that game on both the home and visiting team

bi is the game time humidity

what's the biggest factor humidity can bring? the ability for a pitcher to throw breaking stuff?

old timers never worried about pitch counts did they Pop? Jiminez looks like he can throw a ton of pitches, and to me looks like the nutz in the NL. Halladay needs his big bender to be working.

Do you look at ground ball to fly ball ratios while considering external factors in deciding on an over/under?

so true but it does burn them out early with rubber arms if they do it all the time

wish i did have the data to do that. total pitches ball and strikes fly out and ground outs. mlb just does not report that info on a game by game basis and dont trust many other sites to stay around and do it daily on a timely basis

here's the prob with them. it would all have to be a fat finger job as everything is reported below the line in text form vs table like the pitching data right above it. no cigar, at least not for me. right now i spend 30 min a day max putting all of my data together that in the pdws and master, half of which is specifically for this thread. anything more than that takes away from the most important part which is analysis etc

for those following the zens be careful with the sea zen 5, it looks like rain and could be played indoors, in which case i don't know what that does to the humidity. I do know that sea indoor games have a much higher scoring avg than outdoors

that's not a pure dome stadium. it only has a top to keep the rain off the people. other than that everything is open

I did not know that- thx

 

[pops69]

they do play in the rain, so the very high humidity and lower temp might matter. it's just tough to track in automatically as mlb will report a wind direction so you really dont know the top was covered
