http://www.dailyherald.com/sports/cubs.asp?id=220241 Lack of HRs bigger issue than OBP, Baker says Manager Dusty Baker took his turn addressing the team’s problems Thursday, and he didn’t seem too worried about the lack of baserunners. “On-base percentage is great if you can score runs and do something with that on-base percentage,” Baker said. “On-base percentage just to clog up the bases isn’t that great to me.” Baker’s focus would be improving the team’s power. The Cubs are tied for 10th in the NL with 124 home runs. “I think the problem we have to address as much as anything is the home run problem,” Baker said. “They have out-homered us 2-1 in our own ballpark. That’s the bigger problem.” Baker 大神認為小熊的問題不是沒人上壘，而是全壘打太少，在家裡被對方轟的全壘打比自己還多一倍 (maybe that's because your whole staff is on the DL and have to use a AAA rotation???) 這個洋基YES 台的評論作家說到.. http://tinyurl.com/o7d9m Someone should swap Dusty Baker to the Department of Defense. He'd fit right in. Yesterday he addressed the Cubs' offensive problems. The Cubs are last in the National League in runs scored. They're last in the majors in runs scored. They score less than I did when I was in Seattle. The key problem is that the Cubs are last in the NL in on-base percentage, second to last in the majors (behind the Damon Hollins Devil Rays). They trail the universe in walks. With just 308 walks so far, the Cubs are on pace to finish with less than 400 walks, something rarely done in a complete (that is, non-strike) season; from 1975 through 2005, just eight teams drew less than 400 walks. Yet, Baker doesn't think this is the problem. He's more worried about home runs. "On-base percentage is great if you can score runs and do something with that on-base percentage," Baker said. "On-base percentage just to clog up the bases isn't that great to me." (as per Chicago's Daily Herald) ....................... Like I said, this is obvious stuff. Chuck Knoblauch obvious. If a team gets on base at an above-average rate it will score an above-average number of runs. Period. If Baker doesn't understand that, he shouldn't be managing. He should be in the stands with the other experts booing A-Rod. Baker 可以去國防部工作..他的天兵應該能夠立刻融入... 或是該跟其他的"專家"一樣坐在觀眾席上酸 A-rod... 這個留言板上看到的鄉民文章更狠.. There once was a skipper named Dusty In him, Cub fans did trusty On pace for ninety losses, but no firing by bosses? They now wish they rather had Krusty. 請Simpson 中的 Krusty the clown 來當教練也差不多.... -- My blog http://www.yankeewave.blogspot.com 超級老人球!! 1. Lofton CF 2. Biggio 2B 3. Bernie RF 4. Bonds LF 5.
