Thrown out on the basepath like a nincompoop

It's a tribute to ryan theriot.

A brief history of tootblan

I laugh every time

TOOTBLAN is actually one portion of a larger statistical term he dubbed “The Ryan Theriot Adjusted On-Base Percentage,” which he created to help determine how much Theriot’s value as a leadoff man was being eroded by being a nincompoop on the basepaths.

Lester really got back on track in his last start against the Reds. Anyone that watched that game knew Lester "was back".

I'm also not concerned. Especially considering our power sticks really haven't showed up yet.

He was causing all kinds of grief on the bases that day. Geez. If it wasn't for that sparkling play by Addison Russell, Hamilton steals 2 more bases probably.


Wow, can't believe they just took him out. Strop and Rondon time.
