  1. His xBA/xSLG in 2020 was .214/.343. He had garbage exit velocity and one of the worst Hard Hit % in baseball that year.
  2. Watch it, meat. He was a slap hitting bitch in 2020 as well he just got lucky in the short season. So that's two years his back has been jacked and now he's back?
  3. Hmm is Biggio back? His 2022 statcast page is starting to look like his 2019 season when he was actually good. He's been terrible against fastballs in '20 and '21. The results aren't there this year either with a .167 BA and .222 SLG against 4-seamers but his xBA and xSLG against them is .286/.503. Even better than what he did in '09. He's been hitting really well since his return by slashing .306/.457/.444 since he got back and that's not including today's 1/3 with a triple and a walk. Jays giving him 5 straight starts with Chapman hurt for some of those games so they might be seeing something as well.
  4. It's a 14 team pitching heavy league so most teams roster 9 or 10 SPs. Kikiuchi just got dropped and will get picked up at some point but rather than rostering guys like him I've been having better luck streaming a couple of times a week instead while I only have 7 healthy SPs. I'll think about it but I think you are right about Kooch being as good as any other streamer this week. I'm outgunned on the arms as the other side just has more healthy starters than me so I'm leaning toward streaming Kooch but I'll let you know. Thanks for the advice and talking out with me!
  5. He can't do anything in this stadium. Even when he tries to turn two at the bag he's sailing it past first.
  6. I'll need to pick up a streamer or two this week as I have injuries but Kooch scares the hell out of me.
  7. I'm going up against one of the top teams in H2H but my team is good too. I'm off to a hot start with Alcantara and Wood (we'll see how he does) throwing tonight.
  8. Does anyone have any faith in streaming Kikuchi tomorrow vs. the Orioles?
  9. Vlad's launch angle this season sits at 4.4 degrees, a career low...
  10. We have a 5'4'' 310 pound Mexican catcher who has red hair. That alone is enough to make him a fan favorite. Throw in the fact that he's the best catcher in baseball at age 23 and you'd think this board would want to put his name on the Level of Excellence already. But no, all you armchair GMs think he's too fat so we should trade him in favor of keeping the guy who gets hurt every 2 weeks and a prospect who is basically the same age and has 1 home run in AAA this year.
  11. *Danny Jansen gets hurt every 2 weeks for the past 4 seasons* BJMB: We've got to trade Kirk he's too big of an injury risk.
  12. What's wrong with his knees?
  13. It's not though. Steamer end of year WAR projections: Kirk- 4.6 Vlad- 4.5 Bo- 3.8
  14. It might sound crazy but Alejandro Kirk might be our best player lol. Better than Vlad or Bo even.
  15. Anyone suggesting we trade Kirk is risking being put on The Sheriff's shitlist. He's criminally underrated on this board simply because he's fat. Just look at the facts. He's a year older than Moreno and is mashing MLB pitching and is elite defensively. He barely doesn't qualify but if he did he'd be tied with Pete Alonso for 16th in wRC+ at 152. The only knock on him is his base running but it's made up for by the fact that we get the enjoyment of Vlad constantly ribbing him for not making it to 2nd on his wall balls. And who cares about him being fat, we've got him through his age 28 season so he'll be fine.
  16. Exactly. If he didn't have the build and metabolism of a prepubescent 12 year old boy we could be looking at the greatest baseball talent of all-time.
  17. We might have just witnessed history here folks. Rocket Raimel is 6'3.5'' and 118 pounds. That home run was 441 feet. So by my count that is 3.73 feet traveled per pound that the hitter weighs. Let's call this stat HR Distance/Hitter Weight (HRD/HW). For comparison's sake, let's say Kirk hit a home run 441 feet. Kirk checks in at 5'4'' and 310 pounds. His HRD/HW for the same home run would only be 1.4. In order for Kirk to get an HRD/HW of 3.73, Kirk would have to hit a ball 1,156.3 feet which is impossible. In other words, Rocket Raimel might have hit the most impressive home run of our lifetimes. He's THAT good. The breakout is definitely coming.
  18. Rocket Raimel with a moon shoot! 441 feet!
  19. I wasn't posting a lot in here last night but did anyone catch Tabler's dig at the Royals bullpen when he said that their relievers couldn't even get the ball over the plate in warm ups? lmao
  20. "Now back when I played what you'd do is you'd grab a newspaper on the morning of gameday and read the weather section. But I never really trusted that as a player. So what'd I'd do is lick my finger and point it in the air. And then you can really get a feel for where the wind is blowing. If it's blowing out I might try to go for a flyball. If it's blowing in then I'd go for a line drive. But another way to do is to just grab a handful of grass and throw it in the air. That would give me a lot of information as a hitter before I stepped into the box. A lot of hitters I knew did this."
  21. Vlad and his fat butt waddling down first into GIDPs is getting old
  22. Great play Bo, I thought that was getting by him
  23. A bloop and a bunt. Royals baseball bringing back my PTSD from 2015.
  24. You were right! I blame our fat trainer for clearing him to play. What the hell does he know about health and fitness anyway? Bummer to lose Jano like that he's been playing so well.
