I don't. If everyone starts using the same formulas, we're all chasing the same players. My hitter formula works really well. With 1-2 exceptions, they OPS in order based on the formula. Pitching formula is a little more erratic.
He doesn't do that. Nor do I reply to them. They're just lost.
A lot. Of course, there is some merit to it. Many people believed that the Sux didn't have the bats to play ball in the East. With Big Sloppi not hitting, that's a huge hole. Youk and Pedroia are great complimentary players but, if they're your go-to hitters, you've got problems. The Sux need Martinez to hit and they need someone else to step up and be the man when Martinez can't be. I don't think they have that guy right now.
All that will be arb-el next season.
