    43/60 = 72% Did anyone else think those pictures seemed... off in some way. I guess it's just the straight-on perspective or something.

    What's the source on this? Bautista put up around 35 WAR in that time, playing the vast majority of his innings in RF, and he's absent from the list.

    Well Korean is actually one of the easiest languages to read. The title of this video is a bit hyperbolic but it gets the idea across:

    Yes, I know what you mean in the humidity. It definitely seems to make for a deeper cold feeling. More damp.

    Did he fly out of Seoul? Toronto is only like 2 degree colder than Seoul in the winter. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoul#Climate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto#Climate

    4/80 seems like a reasonable risk to take. And this is fun! Nice signing.

    I entered this thread to say the same thing. It's incredible the jump he's taken so far this year. He's putting up young Lebron numbers of scoring volume, efficiency and passing. He's looking like an MVP candidate right now.

    Based on that photo he's in the DR. He'll be up 20 pounds by the new year.

    If you're looking for a new Josh Winckowski type interview then Jackson Rees might be a good target. He posted a thread on Reddit trying to drum up votes for Minor League Relief Pitcher of the Year: He could be someone down to appear on the podcast. Voting ends Oct. 31st so it might not be possible to book him and get the episode out before then though.

    538 with a new basketball metric: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/introducing-raptor-our-new-metric-for-the-modern-nba/ Steph Curry with the 26 WAR season in 2016 - in an 82 game schedule This metric also loves Kyle Lowry's prime. Had a 16 win season in 2016. Derozan peaked at 6 WAR in 2018.

    Interesting tidbit from a Sportsnet exit interview piece with Reese McGuire: “I feel like everything starts with my defence, for sure. I’m really happy with the results in the (Blue Jays’ proprietary) Strikes Looking Plus metric, which is what we look at as catchers for how many strikes you’re getting above league average. The league average is 1.03 and one day I had a 1.29, which is really high. I’m happy with the way I received, threw the ball, blocking, game management, dialing it up with the starter that day, coming up with a game plan and then executing it and making adjustments during the game.” https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/exit-interviews-blue-jays-catchers-evaluate-2019-seasons/

    And he hit .344 this year!

    Hopefully the Alford fans are thoroughly entertained tonight.

    A couple weeks ago Keith Law said Biggio wasn't worth a major league roster spot.
  17. 43211234
    Zeuch just doesn't look like a major league starter at all.
  18. 43211234
    Me too Spanky, what's up?

    I was thinking that was a fun moment when Manoah and his mom realized that Alek was being shown on the tv. Then the Sportsnet production decided to hold the camera on them for about 35 minutes straight and make it super awkward.

    NHL Thread

    I think I'm going to watch more hockey this year. As a kid I used to play hockey and follow the NHL. Then I found baseball and basketball and most of my sports watching went to them. But maybe I'll start watching some hockey again this year. To me the Leafs look better than last year so they could be pretty fun this season. Call me a bandwagon fan and you'd be right. GO LEAVES GO

    And according to the Fangraphs framing numbers, Zaun was pretty good in that area. They only go back to 2008 though, so if you assume he had similar skills in his younger years, he put up a lot more value than his current WAR total. In the ~1500 innings where his framing was measured by Fangraphs he was worth +38 runs. Just to put a playing time frame of reference to that inning amount, Danny Jansen has caught 793 innings this year.

    The Blue Jays were 7-1 against the Royals this year so they own the tiebreaker. They'll have to be a game worse than KC.

    That was a genuinely nice piece of baseball broadcasting by Buck and Pat when they showed the Cal Ripken clip and they were discussing it. The broadcast producers need to do more of that. When they are telling old stories and showing their baseball experiences it's actually entertaining. More segments like that which focus on baseball as a whole. Instead we cut to Hazel Mae every other inning and she reports on what Luis Rivera said about Billy McKinney's improvements on the basepaths this year. Who gives a s***.

    Alford is a fun player to dream on. Tracks the ball well in the outfield, strong build, some power and speed. I'm not saying he doesn't suck but I understand why people want to overrate him.

    Otto Lopez with a 130 wRC+ in A ball as a 20 year-old. He's really been turning it on lately. Might be a guy.
