    I know its been 20 + years since you had to be anywhere other than where your wife tells you to go,plus the fact that when you did do a job,you did not do anything but give orders,so you might have one of your children who work and maybe they could explain it to you.As hard as I work I am unable to put it into words you can understand,its like trying to explain the difference between right and wrong to someone in Folsom Prison.

    You will never sell the concept around here, but the game is 64% pitching and 36% offense. My totals program makes awards to pitching and hitting based on that principal. Higher numbers relate to pitching dominance and lower numbers relate more offense. Last night was a good example and the formula held true for the D-bax/Pirates OVER, but Sale had the worst night of his season so the under did not win, but that does not negate the method, that is only one game, which is the smallest possible sample size and irrelevant in the long run.
