  1. Fangraphs splits, sort by season and scroll down. Is it a coincidence that Vlad recent power surge coincides with a near 60% pull rate in September? and he now has his season fly ball pull rate up to 25% when it was down near 16% at some point in August? Pulled ground ball rate now down to 55% on the season when it was over 65% not that long ago. I recall seeing 65% on the ground and 16% in the air to the pull side at some point in August. Seems Vlad has made a change to actively try pulling again
  2. Houston up early on Seattle, 3-0
  3. Pretty much, I’m guessing he goes to the highest ranked team (in his estimation) willing to offer a major league deal since they’ll be for the same amount of money.
  4. Soto trade imminent in the off-season then?
  5. Clement is a much lighter hitting version of Bichette. Both are hackers with incredible bat to ball skills that makes them swing at more pitches than they should, but Bo has 25+ HR pop, I very much doubt Clement does. Clements entire offensive value will tied the babip gods. He also has defensive flexibility in his favour. He can replace Espinal any day as far as my opinion goes. Clement can do Espinal’s job for league minimum rather than the 3 million or so that he’s in line for.
  6. You are correct. Minor league free agent if not added to the 40 man at the start of the offseason. Well, the good news then for him is that his performance in the latter part of the season likely gets him a major league deal somewhere. He can definitely see a path to the majors with Toronto also given Ryu going away and Manoah’s current situation. Francis is on the 40 man already with options, so he wouldn’t be lost and if White impresses in ST, that’s all the reason the Jays would need to keep Tiedemann in AAA to build up the innings even more before possibly debuting later in the season. He’ll have other suitors for sure though, but I doubt anyone commits to anything beyond the basic 1 year league minimum deal.
  7. The best part about the White situation is that since he's no longer on the 40 man roster he can still start 2024 in Buffalo without fear of losing him.
  8. Overall ..yes the ground ball rate doesn't look horrible, but his pull ground ball rate vs pulled flyball rate is next level putrid. That's where the power went
  9. Doesn’t really make me wonder anything, the taxi squad is there at this time of the year, doesn’t mean any injury announcement is imminent at all.
  10. I’ll put in a word over at Rogers for ya. You know I got you bro.
  11. Tons of 4-5 pitching type options out there this offseason, Ryu coming back is a possibility but I doubt it.
  12. rangers up 6-2 on Seattle.
  13. Where the f*** have you been all summer?
  14. I knew a Davis Schneider was in a bit of a rut, but 0-30 with 1 walk and 12 Ks is a pretty deep rut.
  15. Big K there. Really feels like 1 or 2 more runs are needed though. 2-3-4 coming up in the bottom of 9
  16. I’d go to hicks right now, but …Swanson needs to get out of this. Struggling for sure.
  17. Rays have the gods of babip on their side today.
  18. We don’t get a choice, it’s an option that vested. Only way to not have him pitch is injury, trade or DFA
  19. Yeah the hook on Kikuchi was 100% fine, he wasn’t fooling anyone.
  20. Was the hallmark of an elite athlete, getting their pic on that Wheaties box.
  21. Whatever Springer had for breakfast this morning is working
  22. Same terrible baserunning by the Rays, what a brutal coaching staff to allow this kind of thing on their team. That and fat asses like Erasmo and Harold Ramirez…such a disgrace. Mead and Harold R should be taken out immediately and sat for a few days
  23. Would be a pretty easy thing for him to work on. Even if he only did it once a week…
