  1. But the Yankees had a +100 run differential! They are so much better!!!
  2. Guys like Cole and Sale could still pull it off with some luck and magic dust
  3. A little bit, 25% during that span
  4. You can already predict this eh Tries to pitch in September, shut down Pitches in 2026 but has TJS in May.
  5. Fractured elbow for Spencer Schwellenbach. Brutal. The Barves aren't describing it as super serious but it seems like one of those injuries that could get worse or beget other injuries.
  6. Lugo doesn't move the needle much. He's solid but more of the same with Gausman - Berrios - Bassitt - Schezer; more of a "get there" guy than a "World Series" guy. Fangraphs says his 2026 is a player option anyway so he might be a rental.
  7. Nimmala since June 1.... 40 wRC+ .162/.252/.263
  8. Alcantara, Cabrera, Henriquez, Faucher, Bender are all worthwhile additions. The Marlins will be a popular seller. They should trade a lot of arms.
  9. I don't think it's that catcher defensive value is underrated. More like, catchers cannot play as much due to the physical demands of the position so they are underrated by WAR based on a simple lack of volume. Or maybe WAR is missing some kind of positional adjustment because the position it so taxing. Wear and tear tariff. The rebuttal to that is obvious but the rebuttal to the rebuttal is something like - do we want to live in a world where a catcher can literally never be the MVP? Are catchers the relief pitchers of hitters?
  10. He has been better according to the fancy stats so far this year, but we can't throw out Berrios' multiple year track record of simply limiting runs (really his whole career if you ignore 2022). Somehow he continues to keep that ERA under 4.00 despite not having amazing stuff. Warren has 17 good starts in his career and the ERA is still over 4.
  11. I am euphoric Weather was great on Canada day. Belly full of pizza, burgers, and Labatt Blue. The Jays came from behind two days in a row to beat Rodon and Fried. Let's keep it going! The gameplan is: give Judge nothing to hit and just wear out the Yankee pitching with competitive plate appearances then do damage against a scrub RP. Today's SP matchup is fairly even. Warren has better K-BB and FIP but Berrios is the crafty veteran who might be better than his tools.
  12. Get ready for a "the man in white" article tomorrow
  13. Could be worse! Tough spin for Clement. Vlad clanked it. Are people really criticizing the Bruihl use when this team just pulled Little, Fisher, and Flu out of nowhere? Have faith, dickheads.
  14. Personally I'm not optioning Flu. His peripherals are fine and Little as the only lefty would be annoying to manage around since he's also a very good general setup man
  15. Barger in there against the LHP makes sense. Wagner over Gimenez is interesting. Schneider over Lukes/Clase. Funny that DS has a .350 OBP right now. He has been horrible but he is one or two swings away from having a 100 wRC+. I am sick of Clase. Too bad Orelvis Martinez got caught cheating and sucks now. What happened with Kasevich? he came back in May for a few rehab games but stopped playing.
  16. Gerrit Cole numbers, if he has clean health between now and free agency
  17. Toronto is way better against LHP so perhaps they can jump Rodon
  18. Kirk is at 3.0 fWAR now. The #1 player in baseball by defensive value. Clement is the #6 player in baseball by defensive value and is way up at 2.7 fWAR. Clement has a positive OAA at 3B, 2B, SS, and 1B this year. Vlad & Bo are second tier players. This is the year of Ernie & Kirk.
  19. Ross has been cooking for two years
