  1. 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***.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Reminder that taking a month+ for a trade to be resolved to the public is a dumn practice.
  5. Fangraphs added park factors to its pitch framing numbers. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/instagraphs/pitch-framing-park-factors/ They seem crazy high and I wonder if some of the commenters in the article are correct and maybe they're a function of slight differences in the instruments that measure the pitch location.
  6. With the Vlad weight watching I thought I'd make a pointless poll
  7. All Manfred needs to do to fix pace of play is to ban Vogelbach. Good lord he takes a lot of time between pitches.
  8. Is the Sportsnet feed all pixelated for anyone else? It just seems to be the outfield camera pointed at home plate that is having the problem so I don't think it's on my end.
  9. I'd never noticed before how wonky the HR/FB rates can be the lower minors. SWR has a 0.03 differential from his FIP to xFIP but has a 6.3% HR/FB In A ball with the Mets he had a 2.52 FIP and 2.27 xFIP on a 11.6% HR/FB. It stands to reason that less fly balls would become homers at that level but I didn't realize how large the difference was. The Florida State League average must be around 6.4% but it's 15.3% in the majors this year. btw does anyone know where you can find league-wide numbers like this for the minor leagues. Fangraphs has the league aggregator for the major league leaderboards but not the minor league ones. At least as far as I can tell.
  10. Simeon Woods Richardson dominating right now. 5IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, 5K
  11. I don't understand this one. Just let him sit a couple times a week for another month and a half and trade him in the offseason.
  12. Maybe Dante shared some of his chemistry with Bo.
  13. I wonder will Manoah touch any top 100 lists this offseason?
  14. Yeah but if working itself out means people move and lose position value then that's not good.
  15. The defence is a legitimate concern. Vlad is fat and gives up a single to his left Bo boxes one and Vlad was too slow to get to the bag for a double play anyways Gurriel runs through the CF's call and makes him miss
  16. I wonder if Josh Palacios gets a look in September? 24 years old now but a 130 wRC+ in AA. Maybe he has a chance to be a 4th OF if his defence plays at the big league level.
  17. It's crazy that the Blue Jays didn't force Sanchez to ditch the s(t)inker like the Astros did. At least give it a try for a few starts.
  18. I don't mind it at all. It's interesting to hear from fans from around the world. And I'd rather threads be a bit more fluid than just the general Blue Jays thread, around baseball thread etc.
  19. That twitter profile pic from Arash is about 200 pounds ago Sanchez seems like a good dude.
  20. The Dunedin Blue Jays are just starting their game in Fort Myers. They must be pretty desperate to get this one in if the first pitch was at around 10:30pm local time.
  21. Buddy Bosher and Jason Adam Can't remember the last time I saw a pitcher enter the game for the Blue Jays that I had never heard of before. Not to mention two of them back to back!
  22. Bo being listed at 6'0" 200 pounds has to be one of the more farcical listings in the league.
  23. He had actually been promoted to high-A by the Mets a few days before the trade. https://metsmerizedonline.com/2019/07/simeon-woods-richardson-promoted-to-st-lucie-mets.html/
  24. Holy s*** yikes. Atkins is officially complete trash at trades
