October 25, 201312 yr There was something between the two about the issue of the fences and Lomo actually came off as a dick to Miami fans by openly calling us more casual fans. Whether or not that's true doesn't matter, still kind of a dick thing to say while still on our team.
October 25, 201312 yr He got mad at me after the 2012 All-Star game for actually help him prove his point about the NL's pitching dominance from 2010-2012 in the ASG. He mentioned that the NL pitching has allowed just 1 run over the last two All-Star games [11 and 12], I chimed in with, "they also only allowed 1 in 2010," he responded with "further proving my point," and I added in one extra tweet, "and that run in 2010 was unearned as a result of the pitcher's own throwing error." He tells me to stop and that the point was already made. I was blocked by Frisaro earlier this year, myself. No need, anyways. JCR and Capozzi are much better, more friendly. Speaking of JCR - anyone know why LoMo doesn't like him? lol. Frisaro is a dweeb.

October 25, 201312 yr JCR responds to some of the dumbest fan tweets. The equivalent of a politician using pre-selected questions when debating on TV
October 25, 201312 yr I can't remember exactly what it was between Lomo and JCR. I think JCR quoted him but left out something he said to make it sound like Lomo was pissed at someone or something. Lomo called him out on Twitter and I think JCR ended up releasing the full quote.
October 25, 201312 yr Frisaro is a dumbass. I don't usually use this phrase but he's a FO apologist. The other day he wrote an article on the main site and he actually comments on his articles. Basically, he told everyone who disagreed with him to go root for another team if they didn't like it.
October 25, 201312 yr Author I met Frisaro and JCR. Both couldn't have been nicer, just my two cents.

I feel like he's more connected with Loria and co. than any other reporter, simply because I'm sure Loria has some sort of a say (whether directly or otherwise) in his employment.
October 25, 201312 yr Samson: Club focused on improving pace of play http://www.mlb.com/news/article/mlb/samson-marlins-focused-on-improving-pace-of-play?ymd=20131025&content_id=63353068&vkey=news_mlb This is from Frisaro's twitter. How disconnected can you be? Fans would much rather have you improving the on-field product than shortening the time we have to endure its suckiness. And no, with this team this is not a false dilemma.

October 26, 201312 yr Unfortunately, the order to shut up appears to be no longer operative. Who cares whether a game takes 2:35 or 2:45 or 2:55? They must have another survey wherein idiots say baseball is boring. We don't play 4 hour games like Boston/NY. I can see Samson as Captain Queeg after a player or two steps out of the box one too many times or a pitcher picks up a rosin bag too often: "Some misguided players still think they can pull a fast one on me. Well, they're very much mistaken. Since you've taken this course, the innocent will be punished with the guilty. There will be no walk-up music for any member of this team for three months. Three 20 second delays equal a minute! Games must be played in 2:35! No stepping out! No walking around on the mound! You must run in from the bullpen! I will not be made a fool of! Do you hear me?" And what's this nonsense about replay reviews taking only 60 seconds? When you eliminate 3 to 10 minutes of back-and-forth arguing by both managers and conferencing by umpires, it doesn't matter whether a replay review takes one or two minutes, it's all good.
October 26, 201312 yr I was looking for an Adeiny thread but couldn't find one so just going to post this year. Looks like Frisaro doesn't understand why Adeiny wasn't a GG finalist. lol. I just told him why and be blocked me Why does this guy hate stats so much? Could have been that made-up stat on cracking the top 3 of worst hitters in MLB.

He was actually the worst.

And Erick's right, he is the worst. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2013&month=0&season1=2013&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=21,a
October 26, 201312 yr Also, Adeiny is ranked 15th among the 17 qualified SS's in mlb this year defensively. I was actually being too generous with Adeiny. My goodness he is a terrible baseball player http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=ss&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2013&month=0&season1=2013&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=20,d
October 26, 201312 yr Since Bob, like Frisaro, probably hates advanced metrics, here's some "regular" stats for how bad Adeiny was this year: Among qualified starters AH ranked: 7th worst in AVG 3rd worst in OBP 1st worst in SLG He was caught stealing just under 50% of the time. Any further questions?

But numbers don't lie often.
October 28, 201312 yr This all makes sense now. We have one of the worst hitting teams of all-time because not getting on base shortens the game! This is a new form of sabermetrics and I personally can't wait to see all the haters when it all works as planned!

Maybe someday we'll see a Hollywood movie depicting David Samson's efforts to perfect the act of shortening the baseball game.
October 29, 201312 yr Haha. So what, only like 95 losses next season? I can just imagine Loria trying to mimic the red sox this off season and signing a bunch of scruffy looking white guys. 99.

Any further questions? The further away we get from the season the more glaring the numbers become. The eyes seem to be really deceiving when it comes to Adeiny... He just doesn't look that bad. But numbers don't lie often. With a few exceptions, I give someone's first year in the majors some slack. Especially those that were so highly advertised and more or less thrust into the situation because of a lack of any real depth at that position. Call it a learning curve if you want. Gotta also remember he had that 3 week (or so) span where he was absolutely atrocious with the bat and glove. Now that I would call the worst in the majors. No doubt he could have used another season in the minors. But going into this year we knew this was a "throw away" season. Guess they just figured it couldn't hurt to throw him in there and let him get acclimated that way. Can't say I agree with that thinking, but we aren't in charge. He's not going anywhere, anytime soon. I think as a fan base we should be hoping he learned from the experience and starts to show the potential he was advertised as having instead of throwing tantrums because he is on the team. 2014 should be the season he either puts up or takes a back seat.
