Miguel Batista has thrown 41.7% of his pitches for a ball. That's not Dontrelle Willis bad, but it is worse than any single season in Daniel Cabrera's career (41.4% in 2004).
From Aaron Sele in 2005 to Joel Pineiro in 2006 to Horacio Ramirez in 2007 and now Miguel Batista in 2008; this team just cannot escape epic suck in the rotation. Karmic payback for 2001-3 I suppose.

Its not even that he is bad really
Its that the team seems to not realize he is bad. I don’t know if they actually don’t know if he is bad, or they just don’t care?
But Batista seems to think he is injured (Back)

1. What's xOuts?
2. Is this a look into your database?
Last Fan Of Jose Lopez - June 26, 2008
Expected outs?
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
1. Yes
2. Yes.

Could you explain further?
Also, that’s a nice paint job you’ve got there. Want your database to become an animal?
Last Fan Of Jose Lopez - June 26, 2008
Needs more color.
JI - June 26, 2008
Explain further?
Expected outs is the same as described here. I was including it in the search query to get a feel for a good cutoff. It’s a proxy for IP in a way.

Durr I suck
Last Fan Of Jose Lopez - June 26, 2008
Well
I guess it is that he is bad.
SaberR - June 26, 2008
Yes, but he is a real man.

I didn't think Johnny Cueto had been that bad
Last Fan Of Jose Lopez - June 26, 2008
1.77 HR/9
Lots of talent, and I think he’ll eventually be a guy who doesn’t walk many guys at all, but I think he’s going to have problems keeping the ball in the yard.

That's disgusting.

SaberR - June 26, 2008
VORP is so 2004.
JI - June 26, 2008
And yet the Mariners don't know what it is :(
SaberR - June 26, 2008

“In Russia…road forks you”

In Russia…road forks you
JI is in good shape
Corco - June 26, 2008
It's in Family Guy.
It’s not a Family Guy joke. It’s a Yakov Smirnov joke or, to be even more accurate, an Arte Johnson joke.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
Oh my.... oh my....
No…just….My goodness…
BrianL - June 26, 2008
My lack of a question mark has tained my comment.
:S
SaberR - June 26, 2008
Educate yourself.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Fail.
Family Guy is Jeff approved.
JI - June 26, 2008
Right, but it's not a Family Guy joke.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
At least when Futurama stole it, Fry gave credit to Yakov.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
You're missing the big picture.
JI - June 26, 2008
Your.
Last Fan Of Jose Lopez - June 26, 2008
How's that?
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
It is mentioned in Family Guy
As well as Futurama
SaberR - June 26, 2008
Okay, say I tell a joke that I heard a stand-up comedian tell.
Is it my joke? No. It’s the writer’s joke. Doesn’t mean it’s not still funny, it just means it’s not MY joke.

You know what else is an epic failure?
This recording of LRB’s Reminiscing.
YOU PEOPLE WERE MORONS FOR DUMPING JOHN FARNHAM! He was way better than Glen Sharrock and Peter Whatshisface.
