Thumbs up Frankie Cannot Foul Outo

AL BATTING
1. I. Suzuki, Sea .348
2. F. Catalanotto, Tex .339


I'm rooting like heck for Catalanotto to win the Batting Title. Great deal that Randy Smith made.

NY guy. The type of player that I probably would have been if I had major league talent - - good eye, hits the ball hard all over, some pop, no real position to speak of.................plus, it's just a good story. What were the odds of him being Batting Champ back when the season started?

I was expecting more of an anti-Ichiro theme.

You're a baaaaaaad boy Buzz. Ichiro would be my 2nd choice. I do not want Juan Gone to win it. Giambi would be cool - Alomar too.

I forgot - was Brad Ausmus involved in that one?

One of the few that he wasn't. This was the Frankie C, Kapler, and others for Juan Gone deal.

Player A: .381 OBP, .455 SLG. 123 RC, .681 OW%, .309 EqA, 47 RARP
Player B: .402 OBP, .506 SLG, 95 RC, .741 OW%, .315 EqA, 37 RARP
Player C: .474 OBP, .643 SLG, 163 RC, .860 OW%, .383 EqA, 96 RARP
Player D: .379 OBP, .606 SLG, 118 RC, .747 OW%, .331 EqA, 53 RARP
Player E: .404 OBP, .633 SLG, 160 RC, .696 OW%, .344 EqA, 94 RARP
Glossary: OBP = on base %, SLG = slugging %, RC = runs created, OW% = offensive won/lost %, EqA = equivalent average, RARP = runs above replacement player at the position

How do you rate them in the MVP race? I'd say C-E-D-A-B. How about you?

PS - Yes, Net, this pertains to this thread.

Depending on position - I might go CEDBA.

Agreed. B is the better hitter when he plays, but A clearly has more at-bats (hence the big RC gap and the smaller RARP gap).

Guessing:

A - Ichiro
B - Catalonotto
C - Giambi
D - Boone
E - Rodriguez

And I'd rank them CEDAB too.

So, is Rob saying that Frankie, percentage-wise, is playing better than Ichiro? Or, am I saying that...........

Too many letters and numbers
