    What is this supposed to even mean lol

    Mets lineup still decent Just Lindor and Vientos and JDM sitting, for core bats
  3. Laika
    good luck, Grant Holmes and Alex Anthopoulos

    There is some element of luck involved but they targeted durable veterans who stayed healthy so it was intentional luck as the old goalies say, you make your own luck *taps post*

    Oh no, Chris Sale is injured? This is my shocked face Of course it's lucky when Chris Sale gives you 177 innings considering his last three years combined didn't total that It's hard to call Gausman/Berrios/Kikuchi/Bassitt taking the ball every day "luck" when they did it two years in a row. More than two years for most of them.

    Imagine being a Dbacks fan? 89 wins and your season comes down to... watching Joey Lucchesi for the Mets face off against Grant Holmes for the Barves
  7. Laika
    but who are the Mets even throwing it will still be the Barves A lineup vs the Mets C lineup
  8. Laika
    yes this makes more sense

    now the question is do they mets just punt game 2? well, play their shittiest possible team i think they should. rest the boys.
  10. Laika
    I think every other arm they have is better than him. Maybe.
  11. Laika
    omfg LINDOR
  12. Laika
    so is he even a good reliever then?

    Cards rebuilding Giants fired Zaidi and named Buster Posey! as new President. Blue Jays.... are having a press conference hosted by Ross lmao

    Arenado's contract is $32M ($5M paid by Rockies) $27M ($5M paid by Rockies) $15M So it's only $15 + $22 + $27 = $64M left to any team that trades for him. 3/$64M It's not THAT gross. His projections are okay? I'd be down for Goldschmidt on a one year deal in the Jays situation for sure. In fact, he's kind of a perfect fit. If the Jays completely whiff in free agency, I would actually consider trading nothing for Arenado. The deal remaining in 2025 and 2026 won't be that relevant for a team like Toronto anyway.

    Romano did have some kind of minor elbow surgery. To move a nerve or fix an impingement or something.

    I mean there is no incentive in trying in game 2, if you win game 1. They would just burn good players/relievers and waste energy. And the end result would just be letting a more rested and still dangerous team into the bracket on the other side. Like, if I won game 1 and secured a spot I would just rest everybody in game 2 and use my long reliever for the first 5 innings.
  19. Laika
    Yeah they should split on purpose If one of them sweeps tomorrow, they have to play the rested DBacks in the WC series. Big disadvantage!
  20. Laika
    that's not... what sarcasm means... LMAO

    They are definitely on the precipice though. The Blue Jays cultivate a relatively good fan base when they win for a bit, but it can be fleeting. Lose a few seasons in a row and oooof. Per game: 2016, 42k (1st in the AL) 2017, 40k 2018, 29k 2019, 22k (8th in the AL)

    Tigers for me. Brewers in the NL.

    Fine, I'll do it He turned his already good splitter into a nuke. 165 Stuff+ since August 23rd. It was 132 before then. This made his overall Stuff+ go up of course. It has been 113 since August 23rd. It was 100 before then. Fastball slightly better (see below). 85 Stuff+ since August 23rd. 78 Stuff+ fastball before then. His velo is up. 94.4mph on the FB since August 23rd. It was 93.7mph before then. He improved his command. 108 Location+ since August 23rd. It was 94 before then. (this is an insane jump, like going from minus minus command to being George Kirby) The splitter is the most interesting thing. It has been good his whole career and oscillated between 128 and 110 stuff+ but this stretch has been nuts. Pitch mix until Aug 22nd 49.2% - 31.1% - 19.7% --- FB/Split/SL Pitch mix after Aug 22nd 52.6% - 28.9% - 18.4% (so, not much different... was kind of expecting to see less FB more Split) Better in every way. Erik "tender me, baby" Swanson, ladies.

  25. Laika
