So what exactly are you arguing here? That you think Judge could change his approach in order to strikeout less and hit for better/same OBP/SLG?

And, really, someone just needs to make that suggestion and, bam, done deal????

No, wait, what exactly are you saying? If Judge put more balls in play would he be better or not? You know, because you just said "balls in play are better than strikeouts".

Christ, I can't believe we're back to arguing about this.

A ball in play is always better, from the perspective of the offense, than a strikeout. Because a ball in play isn't an out. From the perspective of the pitcher, a strikeout is better for the exact same reason.

Regarding Judge, if he can alter his approach in a way that increases his OBP while maintaining his power, great. That would be awesome. I'm not sure it's possible. Maybe it is.

OK, I need a clarification.

If I quoted the 20-30ish people on these boards who think you're a ridiculous clown actually stating that you're a ridiculous clown to back up my belief that you're a ridiculous clown, would I be appealing to authority? After all, they've seen most of your 17000+ posts as evidence that you're a ridiculous clown and would have valid proof that you're a ridiculous clown.
You never clarified this for me. You know, back when you were appealing to authority then tried to explain how you weren't.
LOL holy **** mike just admitted defeat on an argument. I literally thought that would never happen.
LOL. Just pointing out that you ignore **** all the time but, if someone else does, you throw a hissy.

You do several things when you desperately need to move on:
1. Ignore
2. Change the subject/deflect
3. Answer questions with questions

I call it the Triple Play.

Great, let's not move on.

What is this:

Obviously more balls in play is better. Until you need to make an argument, like Mussina had more strikeouts than Hunter, then they aren't.

This is funny:

"Christ, I can't believe we're back to arguing about this."

He complains about arguing again about "strikeouts are just another kind of out". Then proceeds to argue that point for 3 pages.

NEWS FLASH: YOU DON'T HAVE TO ARGUE ABOUT IT.

We all know you're (a) wrong, and (b) retarded whether or not you argue about it again. So why bother?

A device that calculates WAR after every AB and a new Edgar "taking a pitch" poster. The old one has "stains" on it.

Could not possibly be as worn out as tec’s productive outs poster.

Unfortunately for you, they don’t make a Catfish Hunter poster because mediocre pitchers don’t get posters.
