The Jekyl & Hyde O

NadoBrave · 05-11-2008, 11:37 AM

To quantify da Bravos erratic O, I delved into their Home/Road splits & found these amazing disparities (used our 8 primary starters with at least 52+ABs). With the exception of Tex who is actually better on the road, they range from a 58 (Heap) - 181 (Diaz) point drop in BA, a 62 (KJ) - 141 (Diaz) point drop on OBP & a 7 (Sir Swingsalot) - 298 (Diaz) drop in SLG

Here are the full breakouts on the road disparities (BA/OBP/SLG)
Yuney (-77 /-99 /-42 )
KJ (-95 /-62 /-210 )
CJ (-112 /-106 /-74 )
TEX (+69 /+56 /+154 )
Heap (-58 /-69 /-127 )
Frenchy (-64 /-100 /-7 )
Kotsay (-108 /-116 /-162 )
Diaz (-181 /-141 /-298 )

Its like they take different bats/attitudes with em on the road.
The team as a whole (BA/OBP/SLG)
Home 316/385/477
Away 249/316/399

With the exception of Tex...

Well, you know, Teshy is aware that the spotlight is "on" when he heads NE to his future stomping grounds. He strives to put his best bat forward.

Was it last year or the year before when we kicked ass on the road and couldn't beat the Little League team of Sandusky, Ohio at home?

GenericBravesFan · 05-11-2008, 03:35 PM

Last year sounds about right on that, Snow. This year though, it's been difficult for me to get a good vibe with the team.

DR3AMR · 05-12-2008, 12:46 PM

We've had some bad breaks. If we can be sitting at 4 road wins on May 12th, then I feel pretty good going forward.

The weather has been brutal on the road too. Its ridiculous in Pittsburgh today.

NadoBrave · 05-12-2008, 06:19 PM

15 Men LOB in today's frustrating game 1 shutout loss (8 H, 3 BB & 4 friggin PIT errors, 0 execution) Only 4 runs scored in the first 3 games with PIT before the bats finally came alive in Game 2 (still 22 men LOB)! Losing 3 of 4 after a 6-0 homestand? When does this thing turn itself around? I don't buy the weather thing DRMR, cause its sucked that way before & they still did better than this.

GenericBravesFan · 05-12-2008, 07:18 PM

Yah, I'm waiting as well, Nado. Today was another example of the Jekyll and Hyde offense..

GenericBravesFan · 05-12-2008, 07:20 PM

Oh, and I also noticed the Pirates managed to commit 6 errors in two games today...not bad!

rniki10 · 05-12-2008, 08:10 PM

Nado we only left 9 men on base in game two. The 22 figure is double and triple counting and are totals for individual batters.

DR3AMR · 05-12-2008, 08:57 PM

Yeah, game one's line score is infuriating. I have faith though that we're gonna go on a nice run now with the win though.

Yepper we're off to Philly and the Hackin' Road Warriors will sweep the bass turds......

I see Tex split the duties at first with Norton in the first game and sat out the 2nd game. Did he get hurt or did Bobble give him a much needed sit down?

DR3AMR · 05-12-2008, 10:53 PM

Thanks, DR3AMER. Hope it's not serious, unless Norton pounds the heck out of the ball and hits .400 the rest of the season like Chipper is trying to do. Lol. Naturally, I really do hope it's not serious.
