Around Baseball 2019

[onwego]

Yesterday was Baltimore's home opener, teams without a roof tend to have the next day without a game in case of postponement due to weather on the scheduled opening day.

 

 

They started early this year without the usual spotty scheduling, and it can be justified, but cutting out on a Friday night game doesn't feel right.

 

Stranger than the Leafs not playing on a Saturday night, even a road game.

Chris Davis 0-16, 10 Ks

 

 

They PH Hanser Alberto for him in the 7th yesterday, during his 3rd sad appearance Palmer stated that he isn't exhibiting the mechanics of trying to hit a major league pitch

[Brownie19]

You can sort his years by adderall/non-adderall. I imagine the effects of having to go off adderall are making his performance even worse then if he was never on it to begin with...

 

um...he was allowed to go back on adderall. He's been on it the past couple of years I believe.

Red Sox getting hammered... enjoy it while it lasts.

No he's not... apparently he's only allowed another drug called 'Vyvanse'. You really think it's not a coincidence that he goes from being horrible to non-horrible when he's off and on adderall?

Reds off to a 1-6 start. Don't expect them to be that bad, but don't see them anything more than a .500 team in the NL Central this year.

Also known as 7 games... also the Red Sox are 2-7 and Astros are 2-5 and Cubs are 2-5. Are they "that bad"?

[Jimcanuck]

Jorge Polanco with 2 singles and a double, triple, home run tonight.

Hopefully their pitching woes continue and they are forced to overpay for one of our pitchers.

Adderall and Vyvanse are essentially the same drug. Vyvanse was created because stupid kids would snort Adderall and die, so Vyvanse doesn't activate until it undergoes a chemical reaction in your stomach. Otherwise they do the same thing.

I wonder what they'll give us for Stro. They love their blacks in Boston. Match made in heaven.

Chris Paddack today: 3.2 IP, 4 BB.

 

Chris Paddack's entire MiLB career: 177.2 IP, 20 BB.

 

Looks like the most walks he had ever given up in a pro game before today was 2.

 

He's got the yips!

Good... good... let him crumble. >=]

 

So that way the Padres get desperate for Stroman and trade Paddack or Patino for him. ^.^!

Jim, I can count.

 

His career professional walks went up by almost 20% in one game lmao. It's crazy!

Meh, statistical noise. Overreaction.

[Orgfiller]

Sorry random question but how the hell does a LHB ever hit a homer in San Fran?

 

It helps if you're Barry Bonds.

[P2F]

Meh, statistical noise. Overreaction.

 

But it's a very significant statistical aberration.

Mike Trout is good. More at 11.

I feel like he's going into those streaks where he goes from a typical HoF into Babe Ruth.

wRC+ by year:

 

2015: 171

2016: 170

2017: 181

2018: 191

 

He hasn't even reached his final form, it's f***ed.

[BTS]

Everything about Trout's numbers so far is bananas. Would be fun to see him put up like a 220 wRC+ for a few years.

He probably would've posted a 200+ wRC last year had he not gotten injured while he was white hot.

[Terminator]

Puig getting after it again.

 

[Abomination]

Puig getting after it again.

 

That'll probably get him a few weeks to cool his head.

This all started after the Pirates didn’t like Derek Dietrich pimping his home run. Baseball players are f***ing stupid.
