Gainzo 147,142 #141 Posted July 6, 2007 You are the one who posted links that didn't say the things you said they did but apparently I'VE been proved wrong LOL. I'm sorry. Neshek has given up HR's (2 of those lost the game) so he is much better than Okajima. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madmike1 109,248 #142 Posted July 6, 2007 I'm sorry. Neshek has given up HR's (2 of those lost the game) so he is much better than Okajima. h Why do you keep saying 7 homers? It's 5. And as I told you Okajima's lack of homers is clearly luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madmike1 109,248 #143 Posted July 6, 2007 Neshek doesn't need help as the thread suggests but you do. You have been smoked in the Reyes and Neshek threads but remain infantile on the matter. All players discussed in both threads are good but you simply made bogus statements and were statistically (your passion BTW) proved wrong. Edit: I'm sorry. You're 100% right about the close and late stat. Okajima has faced more hitters in that situation. i was reading the BR page wrong and I apologize. I was right about the other splits though.

madmike1 109,248 #145 Posted July 6, 2007 Luck? Nesheck has given up a **** load of HR's, Okajima has given up 1. Okajima's HR/FB is unsustainable as i told you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madmike1 109,248 #147 Posted July 6, 2007 Has Okajima pitched well? Yes of course he has. (I never said he wasn't pitching well) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GimmeShelter 21,640 #148 Posted July 6, 2007 Edit: I'm sorry. You're 100% right about the close and late stat. Okajima has faced more hitters in that situation. i was reading the BR page wrong and I apologize. I was right about the other splits though. That wasn't so hard now was it? What other splits? The entire premise of your argument with Gainzo was that Okajima was given easier situations to pitch in. For 10 pages we tried to tell you that was incorrect and showed you the stats yet you insisted otherwise. Neshek could have a better split during a full moon for all I care but in close and late inning pressure the stat that is most important is ERA ....not giving up bombs.....not allowing runs to score. Okajima clearly wins that stat while haveing pitched in that situation more often than Neshek thus crushing the feeble statement that he is given easier oppurtunities.

Okajima comes the vast majority of the time to start an inning whereas Neshek comes in with runners on all the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackout 63,285 #150 Posted July 6, 2007 up until today neshek had the better numbers (ERA, whip, ERA+) but okajima pitches under more pressure than in dinky old minnesota its a wash to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okajima has had a lower ERA since the middle of April Okajima has 4 more saves Okijima gave up 5 more hits Neshek gave up 4 more runs and 4 more HR Okajima played 38 games pitching 41 innings Neshek played 40 games pitching 41-1/3 innings Neshek walked 3 more hitters while having a 14 K lead Okajima is 2-0 vs. Neshek 3-1 Okajima has a better GO/AO ratio(.77) and opp. SLG(.52) Neshek has a better WHIP(.05) and OBA(.008) Okajima has 5 more holds Neshek only faced 1 more batter Overall, while both are close Okajima looks like the better pitcher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
