Quick throwing itself isn't the problem, it's trying to throw before you field

I want to be Nightwulf's friend

I have crumbled before OctogenarianFranco's specious arguments.

TβG

spe·cious   adj.
1. Having the ring of truth or plausibility but actually fallacious: a specious argument.
2. Deceptively attractive.

(presuming the fielder generally has no reason to try to rush a throw after catching a pop-up, whereas the fielder taking a grounder does).

a fielder has reason to rush a throw after catching a pop up if there is a baserunner looking to tag up.  this situation calls for getting the ball out of the glove very quickly, sometimes causing a bop

just wait, the proof is on the way, and you will probably delete that last post as not to look foolish

there are also folks complaining about the lack of Bobby Grich, Dwight Evans, and Willie Randolph.

Quick throwing itself isn't the problem, it's trying to throw before you field, but only with fielders who's names begin with "H"

Now that's just ridiculous, it's fielders that are out of position due to PH, Armas makes so many BOPS at 2B

ellis played a short stint at second in triple a pawtucket, but made three errors in six games, so they moved him back in the outfield.

















i know i made that all up, so don't crucify me.

i am not talking about mitsubishi here, i am talking about a revelation that can change rbi as we know it

i don't want to rain on your parade, but you may want to address the fact that if you use nightulf's editor and set errors to "0" you will never have a bop.  ever.
