Ian Kennedy is a piece of shit

[No coincidences]

Guy had one fluke year in '11 and has been a joke ever since.

[No coincidences]

And yet another line that moved over 20 cents and cashed on the other end, BTW.

What's all this about? If it isn't the vain sharpness that some of us are obsessed with, what sense does it make to bet on Kennedy and the Padres on the road?

[alamo]

Another premature ejactulation from No coin.

i mean seriously....

why call Ian Kennedy a piece of shit?

what does it say about the person behind the computer making post about a professional athlete he has never met before calling him a POS b/c he cost him a $20 wager?...

unreal

Because he is a piece of shit.

30-38 with an ERA close to 5 over the last five seasons pitching in a park the size of the Grand Canyon. Makes $10 million a year. That's highway robbery.

What? Unbelievable. You make things up completely lol.

[t-wizzle]

Bitch and moan. The no coin way of life. Imagine if this guy actually bet more than 20 bucks a game.

[Allure]

Just play more of your -180 bets until you're back in the black. Then you can start posting your record on a daily basis again.

Sorry, 4.63. Really solid.

[posey]

Sorry, 4.63. Really solid.

What the heck are you talking about, can't you add up some numbers or where is your problem?
You talked about the last 5 seasons: '10, '11, '12, '13, '14. Or do you mean: '11, '12, '13, '14, '15? Doesn't matter, both shows you don't know what you are talking about.

'10: 194 IP, 3.80 ERA (82 ER)
'11: 222 IP, 2.88 ERA (71 ER)
'12: 208.1 IP, 4.02 ERA (93 ER)
'13: 181.1 IP, 4.91 ERA (99 ER)
'14: 201 IP, 3.63 ERA (81 ER)
'15: 50 IP, 6.48 ERA (36 ER)

So if you take '10-'14 you get an average ERA of 3.85.
If you take '11-'15 you get an average ERA of 4.38.

Where is your 4.63 or 5?

Maybe you ever heard that an ERA is calculated via innings pitched? This shows even that this 'average ERA', which is even lower than your fake number, is 'wrong'. You have to sum up IP and ER and then his numbers are:
'10-'14: 1006.2 IP, 426 ER, 3.81 ERA.
'11-'15: 862.2 IP,380 ER, 3.96 ERA.

So now please tell me, what are you talking about? Get your numbers straight and then come back again.

'12-15. Sorry, I was adding his Arizona stats double because the page I looked at listed both his split and overall record in '13 when he pitched for two teams.

Why are you so interested in defending this dude? Point stands. He had one huge (obviously fluke) year -- 2011 -- and has been garbage his entire career around it compared to the hype he carried coming up. Take that 21-4 out of the equation and he has a career 48-54 record with an ERA of 4.23. 20-20 with a 4.21 ERA in the most spacious ballpark in the majors.

He's a bum.

My question is that you have established he has been a bum, then why bet on him and them complain that it didnt go how you wouls have liked? Also, didnt they win?

He is no bum. I bet this guys ERA is 4.5x (or slightly better or worse) at the end of the year.

Man, why are you using a 'stat' who is absolutely nonsense. W-L record means nothing. Nothing. Nothing. When do all guys learn that? Heck, you can pitch to an 2.50 ERA and have a negative W-L record as a SP because you get no run support.

Why I am interested in 'defending him'?

First: See what RavensFan2k3 has written. I absolutely agree.

Second: 23.1 K% (career high), 7.2 BB% (one of the best of his career), 15.8 K-BB%, .331 BABIP (career high), 68.1 LOB% (career low), 2.16 HR/9 (career high), 24% HR/FB (career high), 34.2 FB% (career low).

So, we have a guy, who has a career high K%, a more than solid BB% and K-BB%, a very high BABIP and low LOB% (suggesting bad luck), who has given up a career high HR/9 on a career high HR/FB, although he has a career low FB%.

Do you really think this guy will keep on giving up as many homeruns? Yes? then do it. I DON'T.

His SIERA sits at 3.58 and his xFIP at 3.61.

Do you really think this guy will keep on having an ERA of 6.xx+? Yes? Then do it. I DON'T.

Typical no coin spouting off whining about Player X because he continues to make stubborn, shitty bets.

His threads should be ignored going forward. This is his outlet to piss and moan when he loses 60 bucks.

all this means is it was bout time to fade him, it's why i bet 2x on SF -1.5 +180 in my thread

SD winning night b4 in extras was just 1 more reason to bet SF too

there were so many reasons to bet San Fran today. Couldn't even find one reason to bet San Diego

Not in retrospect, I bet San Fran before the game started. ML, not RL tho

I just went with San Fran ml. Kicking myself for not loading up more against Kennedy. I would say books got destroyed last night on this game.

Kennedy has a no hitter going today
