I feel like everyone is making different points and it's seemingly all about the same topic and its creating this mass confusion.

Well its funny because [uSER=5078]@pollyvonwog[/uSER] has told me I "missed the point" over and over this year but he seemingly is missing the point. He acts like I believe the team has a good chance to make it, same with some others. When in reality, I said it is unlikely. I don't understand how anyone can dispute its unlikely but possible. Until they are eliminated, that stands. To say its impossible now is nonsense.

 

And if/when the fish are eliminated we will have [uSER=13640]@GablesMarlin[/uSER] and maybe others starting "I told you so" threads when in reality, we admitted it was unlikely.

No. I am waiting for Paddack to be an All Star to tell you "I told you so."

 

 

paddack for rodney is old news. Capps for cashner + CASH is far far far far far far far mroe egregious and should never be forgotten. Trading a critical member of your team makeup for pure garbage, so you can say "we tried!" and a few million bucks is unbelieveably bad and should not be forgotten or forgiven. 

 

It's also a huge reason why I'm especially negative post that trade. You don't trade one of your most exciting players for literally worse than nothing

 

 

It's impossible. 

 

I would say its EXTREMELY unlikely. But at least they're still "in it". While hoping for a miracle, I've settled on the Marlins at least achieving a winning record, which would at least be something positive.

 

 

What's the reason for the weird title to this thread?

 

Pythagorean Win-Loss record, based on run differential. 

 

Winning Percentage = [(Runs Scored)^2] / [(Runs Scored)^2 + (Runs Allowed)^2]

 

Sometimes they use 1.81 or 1.83 instead of 2 as the exponent [according to bbref].
