King's "monster blast" travelled all of 329 feet, just barely dropping over
the left field fence within kissing distance of the foul pole.  It was easily
the shortest HR I've seen all year.

Believe me; I know.  However, flanked by Pendleton and Oquendo, I think I can
get away with it without crossing the "Infield Structural Integrity" (ISI) 
line below which life becomes...interesting.

I still claim that, on an otherwise sound defensive team, Johnson would be
one of the most valuable shortstops in the league.

How did you determine which team was "very good" and which team was "better
than average"?  Which one is "overachieving" and which one isn't?  By which
one won the World Series?  That's circular.

Frankly, the Twins look much more talented, on the whole, than the Pirates
do to me.  Match up last year's players one-on-one; the Twins look strong.

(All of this completely ignores the fact that the difference between what
the Twins did and what the Pirates did is that the Twins won two 7-game short
series, while the Pirates lost their one series 4-3.  We all know just how
much actual difference in ability can be inferred from that...)

I'm not sure this is so cut-and-dried. 

Look at Luis Aparicio.  His career ran from '56 to '73, and he spent the
first 2/3 of it leading off.  In his first ten seasons, he posted OBPs of
.312, .319, .310, .319, .326, .315, .282(!), .294, .327, and .287.  Feh.
He had exactly one season, 1970 (age 36) when he was an above-average offensive
player.  I mean, here's a guy who was getting well over 600 plate appearances
every year, with the best hitters on the team behind him, stealing 50+ bases
a year, and still never scored 100 runs in a season for any team.  Frankly,
Mark Belanger was a better player.  And yet they led him off.

I'm getting extremely depressed over this Maddux thing.  I was reading
today that the Cubs are already shopping him around, and that a trading
deadline in 8 days may be met.

Damn, can the Cubs do anything?  With the rest of their staff so amazing
this year, how can they let him go?  Are negotiations absolutely out of
the question.

Here we go, Fergie Jenkins and Ken Holtzman all over again.  And
Eckersley...

I can see no good result if Maddux is traded, from the viewpoint of 
being a Cub fan.  Can anyone else?

	Nope, there isn't much of a difference between a .280 and .296
hitter. Assuming 550 AB over 150 games (very reasonable), this means 154 hits
to get a .280 average, 163 to get a .296 average. 9 lousy hits over the
course of 150 games, or one dying quail or seeing-eye grounder every 17 games,
is the difference between a .280 and .296 hitter. Even the terminally
condesending Sherri should be able to recognize this as an argument against
using a player's batting average to determine his value, since blind luck can
account for 9 hits over the course of a season.

In the years that I have followed the Dodgers, there have only been two
players on the Dodgers that I have heard announcers say have great looking
swings.  These players were:
	Ron Fairly
	Greg Brock

Now neither of these guys is likely to get into Cooperstown in the near
future.  I really wonder how a swing looks is related to how good a hitter
one is.

The other thing I noticed about the players listed above, and other players
that I think have good looking swings (Bonilla and Bonds come to mind), is the
preponderance of left handed batters.  Does batting left handed look better
because the batter after he swings is naturally headed toward first base?
Is there another reason, or is this just coincidence?

If I remember correctly, Chicago had gone to a 4-man rotation from
the middle of August in 89. That might explain the dead arm of Maddux and
co. in the NLCS where almost every Chicago pitcher got lit up.
