I must be dumb or something and can't find it posted elsewhere but Addison Russell is debuting tonight for the Cubs. Must be so exciting to be a fan right now.
-
Sorryyyyy
-
Exactly. They didn't have time, though. Could you imagine Osuna walking out with no music? Absolutely horrifying.

The irony is that tons of girls grind all over some guy's crotch to songs like that. Worst thing about Twitter, gives everyone their own little soapbox.

Promotions.

he's not at AAA yet so of course you don't know who he is.

Of course, but it's pretty obvious that context will establish itself in a few weeks. Just like we are able to understand now that 89mph is poopy and 100mph is awesome, reaction time and route efficiency will eventually be understood in the good to bad range. People already mention things like pop time and speed to first, and people mostly get it. I just feel like that is obvious and I have no clue why fans are so upset by this if it means a better understanding of who is underrated and who is over rated. Reminds me of the kid in my class who said he wouldn't trade Joffrey Lupul for Patrice Bergeron, more understanding is never a bad thing. -
Thank you for your valued contribution.

You don't get it, just like the rest of them. I don't enjoy a 10 pitch battle or crisp curve ball any less than you do. I called them stupid because this will not impact their enjoyment of the game, but will mine and people like me. They would prefer that people like me not get this cool new toy. Extending this conversation further is likely pointless.

Let's get one thing clear: I roasted him on DraftKings last night and he is still pretty salty.
-
No one is calling them stupid. Quite the opposite, actually, they are on the offensive against this new learning. And the "I've watched the enjoyed the game for 50 years!" sounds like complacency to me. I'd argue the people who are constantly thirsting for new ways to appreciate the game enjoy it just as much (actually probably more because they mostly aren't solely interested in their own home team) but the old crowd is happy to use the spreasheeting nerd insult to the 0 people who are attacking their way of life. Reminds me of that "old man yells at clowd" thing from the Simpsons.

I am baffled by the negative reaction from old people. Once announcers become familiar with what is average, above average, etc. this could lead to a lot of interesting discussion. The way these guys sound, it's like they wish there was no radar gun - they can see with their eyes if a guy is throwing hard, don't need no stinking radar gun, or a scoreboard - they don't need stinkin' numbers to tell them who's winning. Their eyes can see the better team.

I am honestly speechless that stupid fans are calling this clutter, or worse, useless. Breathtaking, truly.

I've been conditioned to act this way.

Stupid JFaS.

#5-6 starter for a guy who put up a 134 wRC+ in 2013 and isn't super old. Really bad deal for me.
-
First it's a decent deal for me, then it's not after two starts. Jonn, is that you?
-
I thought I went first overall.
-
Those guys are Howie favourites though.

-I accidentally added Trevor May yesterday afternoon, who is an owned prospect in the BBDL -No one caught it until it was too late -He got me an extra W which is a close category -s*** hit the fan
