Danger in Miami

[Daniel Labude]

Biggio, KK, and Varsho with "we quit" ABs. The ball Varshonswung at was above his head

[L54]

If we sell at the deadline we can trade her the ultimate slap hitter, Vlad Jr.

 

Probably has a lower OPS than Arraez

Saw Alfredo griffin do that once in a blowout game to make the game a rain shortened official game.

Arraez .840

 

Vladdy .781

Yeah remember that, I think it was at Yankee Stadium. The home plate ump immediately called for the tarp as soon as it happened.

[Carlos Danger]

Clement pitches better than Pearson and White.

[RobinThicc]

Only game 1, they can still win the series 👍

[Omar]

22 runs allowed the last two games!

 

The ship is sinking. Play for your contracts.

Pain and misery this season so far

[Jays333]

Has to be the low point of the season. Soft part of the schedule starts finally. The numbers people will tell you Marlins should be below .500 and the Jays should have a better record. Sure as f*** didn't look like it today.

hey guys, I'm not certain we have a world series contender here.

haha, omg you found it.

"Its early"

"Vlad hit a GB today 115, with an expected BA of .999"

"Manoah is coming back"

"Our Pythagorean theorem record is wowzers"

"RISP numbers will normalize and this O will take off"

"Only takes a hot month or two from Vlad and Chappy to turn it around"

"We had the same record in 2015 at this time and look at the roll we went on"

"You only need to make it into the Show, and now theres even an extra WC spot"

 

Sorry...had to get that out. A lot of those things are true but we are in the dark times. Winter has come. Still half a season+ so hope springs eternal! Ill be watchin'

Ryan Noda = 1.8 WAR

Vladimir Guerrero Jr = 0.6 WAR (maybe 0.5 after tonight)

Is this Mike Wilner's Twitter feed?

 

You forgot - the only reason the losses are so close and frustrating is that they are a really good team and are in every game.

 

Except this one tonight I guess

[Daniel Labude]

Wonder why the offense tanked. Bo has sucked worse than Vlad that you all want to go to the minors lmao

 

Chapman also deciding to retire after April hasn't helped lol

But Bo wasn't an 80 hit tool greatest hitting prospect, 19 year old hitting .400 at double a.... Bo didn't set the 22 year old homerun record.

 

He killed the low minors, was a .280 or so hitter in the high minors and has absolutely met expectations and his having a very normal aging curve getting slightly better every year.

 

Vlad has fallen apart compared to minor league stats (which were in greatest ever terroritoy) and his historic age 22 season.

 

We expect way more from Vlad, which is why everyone is so dissapointed watching him in a close battle with Triston Casas in the failed prospect fourth tier first basemen WAR race.

I dont care if people want to be stupid. If someone thinks 80 hit tool means .350 with 60 HR as a 23 and 24 year old...maybe you just don't know how baseball works lmao

Nobody expects or think Vladdy will have those numbers. But he is on pace for maybe 25 HR, and a .275 average with around 2 WAR. This is more or less the player he has been in the majors with the exception of 1 season. The sample size is not small anymore and no matter how you spin it thats average. Very very average.

Look deeper contextually is all I will say. You can think that is average for a 20-24 year old or based on your expectation. Whatever. Im on to bigger and better things. Good luck

[Stangstag]

Is Berrios now our ace?

 

No.

Marlins are probably the best trade partner for Vlad now since Kim Ng is running the show! Great analysis Terminator!

Whatever am 80 hit tool is, Vlad ain't doing it

Arraez .840

Vlad is our very own James Loney
