Studs and Stiffs!!!! Come Play!

[PissedPrincess]

New feature, stolen from Special K of Indians forum. Very cool way to measure who really blows, and who really rocks all year!

Opening Day

Studs

Shea 1
Walker 1
Pedro 1

Stiffs

Nomah 1
Embree 1
Fox 1
Grady 1
Damon 1
Trot 1

This is my list. Please critique. I'll add/drop accordingly.

Players get one point a game, the ones with the most Stud points at the end of year, are, hello?, STUDS. Ditto for stiffs.

Sound good?

[rockin500]

good list. Pedro should get superstud though.


btw, can is steal this for my cubbies too?

[PissedPrincess]

Of course Ray! I think it will be an accurate way to measure guys. Can't wait to look back on it.

I pobably should have inserted a small explanation.

Like, Nomah, boots DP ball.

[Special_K19]

If I may make a suggestion. The way I have it set up is I sticky the season thread with just the totals. I also make a game by game thread saying who got what and why so everyone knows what they did. Just another way to do it.

[PissedPrincess]

:idea: Good idea K babe. So, vent about folks in game threads, and just put totals in Sticky?

Excellent. :smokin:

[Special_K19]

Exactly. :D

[PissedPrincess]

Guys, I have to update. Any thoughts?

I didn't watch the game because I didn't realize it was on that shitty channel 3 station. However, obviously Bob Howry gets on the poop list for today.

[PissedPrincess]

K. I was thinking Howry, Wake(sorry 5 runs against Tampa), Damon, Giambi, and Trot on stiff list.

Doza, Woodard, and Lyon, studs.

[rockin500]

good list.

giambi looks like hes going to earn a permanent spot on your shit list.

[PissedPrincess]

I was thinking the same thing Ray. Giambi's gonna end up with the most stiff points.:angry:

[PissedPrincess]

Studs

Shea 2

Walker 1

Pedro 1

Woodard 1

Lyon 1

Doza 2

Tek 2



Stiffs

Nomah 2
Embree 1

Fox 1

Grady 3

Damon 2

Trot 2

Lowe 1

Wake 1

[rockin500]

grady's up to 3? :eek:

[PissedPrincess]

Grady has made horrendous decisions every game. I expect his stiff total to hit 75.:angry:

[NeverDie!]

Kevin Millar? Hello?

2 points stud!

[PissedPrincess]

Yeah Kevin(Mike) Millar. I'll add him when I update.:cool:

[rockin500]

only 75 stiff points?

good job millar!! whoo hoo!

[Michlee60]

I think Nomar can be moved up o stud or now... Mendoza should dfinitely be on the stiff list.

[PissedPrincess]

Will fix Mich. The entire pen is going on stiff list.

[Michlee60]

Mark Grady down for another stiff for not bringing Lyon in for Timlin. Also, scratch my comment about Nomar for a stud point. That ground ball last night he booted was ridiculous.

[PissedPrincess]

That's the second time Nomah has attempted to blow a game by booting a DP ball. And I completly agree about Grady. WHO THE HELL THROWS TIMLIN 3 INNINGS?:angry:

I promise I'll compile this all by tonight. Very busy today.:)

[PissedPrincess]

Okay, I've dropped the ball in here. I'll change it to studs and stiffs of the month. At the end of every month, I'll unstick, and start over.

My April STUDS thus far:

Wake
Millar(current slump aside)


STIFFS

Giambi
Ortiz
MENDOZA
Damon


Everyone else has performed as expected IMO. Thoughts?

[I Are Baboon]

I don't really like to refer to other guys as "studs", but for the sake of this post: :D

STUDS:
Trot Nixon. Yes, Trot. He's been on fire as of late, getting big hits when we need them.
Kevin Millar.
Tim Wakefield as a reliever only.

STIFFS:
The entire bullpen. Can I do that?
Damon
Giambi
Ortiz

[PissedPrincess]

You're right, Trot belongs there, I don't know how, but he has stepped up.

Wake is what 2-1 as a starter? And one save? We all know the dude has no clue where that ball is going, at least he has heart.

IF(heavens forbid), the PEN chokes this trip, I'll add them all. If not, we have to break it down by pitcher. Outside of Doza and Embree, the others are so-so. Not good mind you.........but not worse than expected.

Did that make sense?

[I Are Baboon]

That makes sense, but I feel the pen has collectively sucked and they have disappointed me. I was led to believe by Sox management that the bullpen situation was fixed and we'd get positive results. So far, they have failed too often and have floundered some big leads. Because I had higher expectations for them, they all land on my poop list. :)

Don't get me wrong, I love Wake. As a starter, he has done as expected, but I did not expect him to step up and act as a reliever too. I suppose as a pitcher in general, he belongs on the stud list. Wake rox. :smokin:

Oh, Grady also belongs on the stiffs list.

Excellent point!

Revised List

Studs

Wake
Millar
Trot

Stiffs

ENTIRE PEN
Damon
Giambi
Ortiz
GRADY

[cxlx]

We also forgot Nomah and Manny on the studs list. Not just on their offense, but also on defense. I love it. Im beginning to like Manny again. Hes different. Remember a few nights ago when he was beamed?? And he was ready to kick that dudes ass?? That was fire. Usually Manny is whatevers....but that was kinda unusual?? :umm

[PissedPrincess]

Bob, you have a point, Manny's hitting is starting to come around, but his D, and general attitude should land him on the Stud list.

I'm not sold on Nomah. His inability to turn the DP cost us 2 games. You'll have to fight harder for that Bob.:D

Yup. When Nomar learns how to field routine ground balls instead of just the difficult ones, then I'll be impressed. :D

No doubt Manny is playing with some fire, but he'll need to produce more to land on MY stud list. He's working on it though.

[PissedPrincess]

REVISED

STUDS

Trot

Millar

Wake

If Manny produces big in the next 5 games by end of month, I'll add him.:D
