    Just... wow. Hoffman couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat today

    San Diego just beat Boston so... there's that at least

    What is Kirk looking for.,.. holy god .. takes 92 right down the middle. Straw and Kirk both that inning.. my god boys swing that frigging stick!
  4. John_Havok
    Every reliever today just keeps on walking guys.... all these free bases you'd think this was a Yankees clubhouse party
  5. John_Havok
    I can't really guess either. Doesnt seem to be any convicted rapists or felons on the team to my knowledge.

    The best hitter in baseball never gets benched. His OPS against Lefties is higher than Barger's is against RHP
  7. John_Havok
    The amount of rockets he sends all over the field that end up as outs, it's pretty okay he ends up with a double every once in a while on one that would typically be caught. xba was only .220

    range at 2b is just as important as range at SS, it's just the arm that isn't as big a deal
  9. John_Havok
    I see where you're going with that, but a "Shersy" is a slang name for a female fitting sports jersey. Wanna think about that every time ya call your dog?

    The fact that nodody has mentioned the guy who brought "bush party" back into mainstream lexicon is a travesty. Monkeys don't get cramps!

    Manoah at New Hamphsire tonight: 3IP, 64 pitches 36 strikes . 3 BB, 2K, 2 ER. 5 hits.
  12. John_Havok
    Yeah, realistically they're in a good place. top 10-ish D with a clear top 5, or top 2-ish offense depending on the metric people look at and that's about as solid as it gets to work from. SP could use a boost down the stretch, but I think the pen is in a pretty great place.
  13. John_Havok
    Manoah's rehabilitation is now moved to New Hampshire.

    well s***, ya learn something new everyday. It's very counterintuitive that humid air is less dense... that's weird! Spent some time digging into this... turns out the main 3 factors are wind, barometric pressure, and altitude when it comes to baseball travel distances. Colorado gets f***ed by 1 of those all the time, 2 of those 3 in summer, and not really sure about the wind factor up there. Man if the wind was blowing out in Coors Field hard in late summer, you could probably hit a ball that clears the stadium and lands in Nebraska.

    Wow, wouldnt have thought a dude could walk 8 per 9 like Ryan Brown and still only have a WHIP of 1.4, ... half a hit per inning. Dude is wild ... and unhittable.
  16. John_Havok
    Right, humidity and barometric pressure are also factors. Like, even when it's hot in a coastal city, the effect of the heat would be somewhat blunted by the humidity and elevation (or lack thereof). Arizona is dry, so heat compounds the already existing extra travel due to the lack of humidity, but overall it's elevation isn't that big a deal, only 300~ feet above sea level. Colorado would have compounding factors of elevation, lack of humidity and more heat in the late stages of summer. Edit*** correct lack of humidity to barometirc pressure. I R stoopid.
  17. John_Havok
    Disproportionate is probably the wrong word but it's definitely an added effect since hotter air becomes less dense and the air there at altitude is already less dense due to the lower barometric pressure.

    There's never a single series that makes any difference to what the team is, or isn't. Even a 10-game stretch can have a shitload of random noise. I think the Jays are exactly what their offense and defense says they are. It's actually kind of weird... usually a team will preach pitch and defense or be heavy on the HRs to outscore their opponents. The Jays are more of a defense/extra-base hits/get-on-base team.
  19. John_Havok
    Yep. Just watching him pitch is pretty cool. Personally reminds me alot of Robbie Ray in how he throws and his overall look.
  20. John_Havok
    Yeah run diff is really only usefull over long periods of time. It's not something that matters in small samples. Virtually every team's record in MLB is within 5 games either way of their expected W/L based on run diff, and the majority are within 1-3 games which is completely expected. Very few are exactly matching (Milwaukee, Colorado, Philly, Minnesota, and Detroit) The biggest variances are Tampa (-6 wins vs expected), White Sox (-7), Rangers (-6), and the Braves (-6),

    Red Sox next 2 series are against Padres and Astros - though the Sox just swept those Astros last week at Fenwway. Hopefully the 'stros get some revenge after the Padres take at least 2 of 3. Padres are rolling a bit now too with 3 straight series wins.
  22. John_Havok
    Jays ahve the most series sweeps this season so far... with 9
  23. John_Havok
    What's also pleasant to see is the OBP is highest in MLB at .340 (next is .330 - Brewers) and SLG they are 7th at .428. No empty batting avridge here.

    Records set during the Rockies series... The Blue Jays’ 63 hits were the most by a single team in the Modern Era (since 1901) Toronto outscored Colorado, 45-6. This is the second-largest run differential between teams in a three-game series since 1901. It’s just one shy of the record (40), set by the Brooklyn Superbas against the Cincinnati Reds 124 years ago Toronto’s 45 runs were the most scored by a Major League team in a three-game series since the 2019 Cubs scored 47 (Sept. 13-15, 2019 vs. Pittsburgh) The 39-run differential ties the sixth highest in a series of three games or fewer in MLB history, per Elias The 1901 Brooklyn Superbas series (from above) was the last instance of a differential of 40 or more runs in a three-game series. It’s been a while! Toronto had 40 more hits than Colorado, which is the biggest hit differential in a three-game series since 1900, per Elias

    Could really use those Sox to lose 3 or 4 of their next 5 just to be safe though. Theyre on a real heater
