Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Buck Martinez may just have outdid himself. He was going on a rant that analytics are diminishing pitcher wins because supposedly there are other factors or whatever, and then he claims "but the championship teams are always among the leaders in starter wins". This was a real statement, and he completely believes it, doesn't see any problem with it at all.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Also Dylan Bundy really suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Don't know how much more rope Travis will get. It's not like his defense will buy him more time. Massive middle infield log jam on the horizon. It'll be an interesting offseason.
tazsub3 Verified Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 No question this team is a world series contender with one condition!!!!! It has to be a league full of orioles!
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Man McKinney's trackman readouts ARE NO JOKE!
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 McKinney is a scrappy hitter. Combine his defense, speed and base running ability, he could be a valuable fourth OF at least.

Scrappy hitter? His ISO in the minors this season was .269 and that was a bomb. Are you just saying that because he's white?

Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Morales OPS is .792. Wut?!? Lol

Just his approach looks scrappy, short, quick and has a good two strike approach. Not saying his results are Pierre-esque, McKinney has some pop.
TBJ12 Verified Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 f***ing Buck is all kinds of dumb tonight.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Golf Claps for Gaviglio, well pitched game.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Ahh... usually Smoaky digs that out.
glory Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Scrappy hitter? His ISO in the minors this season was .269 and that was a bomb. Are you just saying that because he's white? First we thought McKinney was black, now we miscast him as scrappy due to his whiteness despite essentially having a power hitter's profile. Poor guy can't latch onto any stereotype.

Poor guy can't latch onto any stereotype. He certainly looks like a Baseball out there. That's for sure!
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Golf Claps for Gaviglio, well pitched game. To Be fair a well pitched game against the orioles is like shooting par in Mini Put...... Ya its nice but you likely should.,

Can't say that the team isn't doing what it's supposed to do - beat up all the crap teams. And by all, he means the Orioles and Royals
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Pannone throws just as fast as a starter as he does as a reliever, maybe even harder lol.
Dick_Pole Old-Timey Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 And by all, he means the Orioles and Royals 4-2 vs White Sox is pretty good too!
Smokinitup420 Verified Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Hernandez defence is bad but holy it looks alot worse when he isn't hitting either
KevinGregg Verified Member Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Teo is like pre-Cito Bautista ridiculously prodigious power, but he's on record saying he's trying to go the other way most of the time. I am pretty sure he needs to talk with Joey Bats for 5 minutes about the merit of a dead pull approach when you have power like that
