The Nats Blog: ERV Renovations -- Update
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/06/erv-renovations-update.html
Monday, June 12, 2006. ERV Renovations - Update. But the real advantage of this new system is that I have data for. Team, not just the Nats. So we'll be able to compare RV and WV with other players in the league. For example, here are the 2005 NL Batting WV Leaders:. Pujols was 14th, with 44.76 RV and 30.42 WV. Nick Johnson was 11th, with 24.89 RV and 33.00 WV. Here are the best NL pitchers:. Posted by DM @ 11:42 AM. Nationals (48-60) 10 games ahead of the Royals (38-70). Win Value Explained Here. Banks ...

The Nats Blog: We're Not Dead Yet
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/08/were-not-dead-yet.html
Friday, August 04, 2006. We're Not Dead Yet. Database to see where it all went wrong. Below is a list of pitchers from 2005 that had non-zero pitching Win Shares for the Nats, the first number listed. The next number is their pitching Win Shares (for the Nats) for 2006. For guys who went to other teams I tried to fill in a new guy for 2006 who is comparable. The color scheme is Red means lost pitching value, Green means gained pitching value and Yellow means a wash. Patterson 14.7/1.8. I'm surprised at h...

The Nats Blog: ERV Boxscore Guide
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/04/erv-boxscore-guide.html
Saturday, April 08, 2006. New reader Bote Man requested a guide to the ERV Boxscores, so, within the limits of my meager graphic skills, I put together the image at right to help explain what the various headings on the box score mean. (Note: I didn't put it on the graphic, but PA is Plate Appearances and BFP is Batters Faced by the pitcher.). Using the baserunning data compiled by Dan Fox. Here are the rules:. Single, 1st to 3rd - Runner Credit every time. Sac Fly, runner scores- Batter Credit every time.

The Nats Blog: Grantville, PA -- Nats Country !!
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2005/06/grantville-pa-nats-country.html
Saturday, June 18, 2005. Grantville, PA - Nats Country! So it is with baseball, too. One would think that this is Phillies country. Indeed, today was "Phillies Day" at Hersheypark, with the Phanatic roaming the park, sitting in our stroller for a laugh, squashing my Nats hat and kissing Mrs. DM. Between the hours of 2 and 3 pm you could have had a free autograph from "World Series Pitcher" Dickie Noles. Dickie earned that title with about an hour's worth of work. Posted by DM @ 8:16 PM. And as far as mis...

The Nats Blog: Walk-off
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/06/walk-off.html
Monday, June 19, 2006. I'm not as bad as Needham. Sure, I too watched the USA-Italy match instead of the Nats on Saturday, but yesterday I listened to the game on radio as I built a basketball hoop in the driveway with Little DM and his brother. (And when I say "with", I mean it; at one point I said to myself, "Where's my mallet? And Little DM said "It's in the shed. I'll get it. You focus on the hoop." A five-year-old supervisor.).

The Nationals Interest: Just how bad is the Nationals' offense?
http://nationalsinterest.blogspot.com/2007/05/just-how-bad-is-nationals-offense.html
A Washington Nationals blog by three rabid fans of baseball, sabermetrics, and a sunny Sunday afternoon at the stadium. Wednesday, May 16, 2007. Just how bad is the Nationals' offense? We've talked a lot about how this season has produced a few pleasant surprises on the Nationals' pitching staff. We haven't talked much about any pleasant surprises among Nationals hitters. There is a good reason for that- there aren't any. You think that's bad? These statistics are truly depressing. The Nationals are ...

The Nats Blog: End of the First Half, with the Score 33 to 48
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/07/end-of-first-half-with-score-33-to-48.html
Saturday, July 01, 2006. End of the First Half, with the Score 33 to 48. So a milestone has been reached. 81 games, one half of the season gone, one half remains. Time to take stock. That is a terrible record. Only 13 out of the 150 "team-seasons" in the past 5 years (30 MLB teams, 5 seasons each) had that record or worse, less than 9%. Let's look at those teams, and what happened to their managers:. 2005 KC 56-106 (Tony Pena fired during season). 2004 ARI 51-111 (Bob Brenly fired during season). 2001 BA...

The Nats Blog: Baseball on Television
http://thenats.blogspot.com/2006/06/baseball-on-television.html
Thursday, June 22, 2006. Which appears to reprint a Thomas Sowell column. Hat tip: Dan Agonistes. Posted by DM @ 4:41 PM. I certainly agree. Today, with the improved telephoto lens, telecasters have taken advantage of the technology to the detriment of the game. It's just the same with all types of broadcasting where the camera work has become too fancy and instead of seeing more, you see far less. Nationals (48-60) 10 games ahead of the Royals (38-70).

Capitol City Goofballs: February 2012
http://capitolcitygoofballs.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. VIDEO] Sign Zim. Today. The tone - if not all the details - of Boswell's column on Zimmerman. One could make a reasonable argument it would be a net plus to have Anthony Rendon at third base in 2014, plus one or more solid prospects. I might actually agree with such an argument. That's just playing with fire when it comes to your fanbase. BONUS VIDEO: Full game of Zimmerman's walkoff on Father's Day 2006. Tuesday, February 14, 2012. Baseball Returns - the 2005 Nationals DVD.
