    He'd be 38 by then, his stick already showing pretty clear signs of age related decline relative to his former self. .

    This isnt confirmed yet, but something like this when it gets reported by "sources" usually is correct.
  3. John_Havok
    No doubt. You're a true Cardinal.

    It's so tragic that STL gave up virtually nothing in trade and landed Arenado and Goldschmidt. They also get competitive blanace picks every year, yet still spend towards the top of the league. If their fanbase wasn't such a giant pool of s*** I could almost admire the team.
  5. John_Havok
    For context on Judge's season... Goldschmidt is wrecking the world with the bat and is still more than 3 fWAR behind him (some of that is defense related).

    It would take quite a collapse for the Jays not to make the playoffs, even a split with the Rays in Tampa would virtually seal one of the wildcard spots. Orioles schedule is about 50/50 in terms on easy/hard. Next 3 against the Tigers, then 4 against Houston, 4 against Boston but then they finish up with 3 against the yankes and 3 vs the Jays. Chances are their fate will be sealed prior to the Yankees series.

    Milwaukee up on the Yanks by 1 in the 4th

    Pretty simple message here from Walker. “you’re better than the bottom of the lineup, get after them”

    Lol that was pisspoor pitch selection for the Os there. Blow to 95mph fastballs through a guy, he swings late indicating he’s sitting on something offspeed…the pen throw an offspeed pitch to him. Deserved to give up a bomb, lucky it was only a double

    Just use wOBA and wRC and boil your argument down into 1 sentence. Soto has been demonstrably better than Bo with the stick and it’s not really close. Defense Bo closes the gap a bit although I really don’t think Soto is as bad a defender as his numbers show this season, seasons past he’s been right around average. Chances are he won’t be Manny Ramirez bad going forward.

    Basketball didnt start with a shot clock either, but after a few years they realized they needed one to keep the action going smoothly

    One thing that I dont get about the logic of creditting players with a sacrifice... LIke, if you bunt to get a guy from 2nd to 3rd or 1st to 2nd... it's a sacrifice. If you hit a fly ball that scores the runner from third... sacrifice. But hitting a fly ball out that advances the runner to 2nd or 3rd, just a normal out. Why no sacrifice on a play like that? It's not like when a player is up there with a runner on third and less than 2 outs they're actively trying to give themselves up with a flyball, that's just what happens. So why is only a sacrifice if the runner scores?

    Gotta stop the changeup, they know its coming. Shelve it FFS
  14. John_Havok
    catchers interference on 0-2 count... just... f*** off
  15. John_Havok
    They must have picked up a tell on his changeup, they're just all over it.
  16. John_Havok
    Yup. he's so stuck into protecting against the slider right now he's just a tick late on those heaters. He'll get there though.
  17. John_Havok
    Doesnt need to be skinny, just going from bowling ball to bowling pin would be a great start
  18. John_Havok
    Yup, Os are sitting all over the change up, literally spitting on everything else. If he can spot his fastball today he can breeze through this lineup.
  19. John_Havok
    I really hope he takes his fitness to heart this offseason. He could have an incredible career if he shaves down 30-50 pounds. Being a catcher with his build already in his early 20s (if not improved) is a near certain recipe for being out of baseball by 30.
  20. John_Havok
    Nah, was referring to the previous games against them in the last series. If you watch the MLB recap videos, when something good happens for the Orioles, you hear their broadcasters on the recap and it was so bad.... its really hard to describe how homeristic and ball sucking it was.
  21. John_Havok
    It’s really just the last month and a half. Prior to maybe the middle of July he was brutal.
  22. John_Havok
    The Os broadcasters are just excited they can finally call games for a team that isn’t a complete dumpster fire. Give them a break! They absolutely gush over everything that goes their way though, like if someone hits a ball through the shift it’s like “go ahead and shift on him, he doesn’t care, he just hits it through you!…” like the guy does it every time or is the next coming of Ty Cobb….in reality it happens 1 out of 10 times but yeah, let’s celebrate.
  23. John_Havok
    I don’t mind it either, it’ll just be peaks and valleys for the most part. For a fine defensive catcher he’s decided that has to be his approach. So be it. He’s making it work
  24. John_Havok
    We’ve been talking about Guerrero for the last like 10 pages…
  25. John_Havok
    Good win . Rays lose. Mariners losing but still plenty of time for the Angels to f*** that up. Not sure I like seeing 7 pitchers used in a win, but here’s hoping for length out of the starter tomorrow.
