His platoon splits are absolutely massive, but they are able to shelter him from LHPs because of his unique situation. I'm curious to see if his total ineptitude against same side pitchers continues as the sample size gets larger.

 

Do you happen to know if his splits from Japan are available? I'd be interested to see what his numbers looked like against LHP over there.

David Wright is 10 games into rehab at A+ ball. You have to admire his drive and commitment to returning to baseball.

 

52.2 Career WAR in about 11 full seasons. Injuries have robbed him from what probably would have been a HOF career. He's set for life financially, yet he still gets up everyday trying to work his way back to the majors. Tip the cap.

They are definitely pretty extreme, but they haven't given him many PAs to improve against lefties as they bench him vs left-handed starters and he doesn't start interleague games/has missed time on the DL. For a hitter this young and gifted, I'd think over time he could turn into a 100 wRC+ vs same-handed pitching kind of hitter.

The sample size is so small that you'd have to just regress his platoon split like 95% to the mean at this point anyway.

So the Cardinals made their interim manager full time..

 

I went to Cardinals @ Pirates game 3 weeks ago. After the game Harrison Bader managed to be infront of me while crossing the bridges to DT pittsburgh, and he was with someone presumably his dad talking mad s*** about the manager and 3b coach, bahahahhahahahahah

Japan has no lefties.

Didn't you get the memo? We aren't allowed to discuss things on the board anymore, according to Spanky. Basically, the only permitted posts are reactions to plays during games.

deGrom hits 98 in the 8th... sexy!

 

deGrom has been the best pitcher in baseball this year. He deserves the NL CY.

Right, also forgot uninformative one word reactions to posts you disagree with.

 

Where'd I say not to discuss the topic/article, f*** off Boxy you jerk.

Amazing story about the negotiation to get Stanton back the ball. Yankees head of security negotiated with the fan and it was a meet and greet with Stanton after the game, several signed balls. A tour of the clubhouse and stadium, future Yanks tickets...and the guy asked for 2 beers as well.

 

Plus f*** yes Luke Voit
