    This ump's scorecard is going to be absurdly one sided.
  2. Orgfiller
    Why do we always force the issue with Espinal on the bases, he's not that fast and if it doesn't work he's out often.
  3. Orgfiller
    Nice to see Danny left the pool noodle back in June-July and brought out the thump that he had the rest of the year.
  4. Orgfiller
    There's nobody warming up.

    Swung at ball 4 but wasn't given much of a choice after that strike 2 call.
  6. Orgfiller
    You really gotta hand it to Springer, for as broken as he is all the time you can never say that he takes plays off on defense.
  7. Orgfiller
    Good eye Biggio! 0-2 the count. lol
  8. Orgfiller
    What a swing with two strikes.

    Actually Laika's right, Vaughn is literally the worst defender in all of baseball (Juan Soto third worst, yikes!). He has a 124 wRC+ but only 0.3 WAR to show for it because he's a 24 year old full-time DH that happens to play the outfield. Also a brutal runner to boot.

    Eloy has also played 30 games in the outfield (out of 67 total games he's played) and he's like, historically bad out there I'm pretty sure. That's a tidy -7 runs defensively in a third of a season.

    I'm pretty sure Robert is an excellent defender, or was, but he's been injured a ton this year.
  12. Orgfiller
    Oh look, another groundball for Vlad. He is beyond frustrating right now.
  13. Orgfiller
    Can't even be mad, that was an insane AB.
  14. Orgfiller
    But why? Just because Springs has a good changeup? You'd be ignoring blatant matchup data just because the rest of the team is otherwise inept at hitting soft tossing lefties? What if Espinal and Merrifield hit those guys well?
  15. Orgfiller
    The guy with the 43 wRC+ against LHP this season, 79 for his career?
  16. Orgfiller
    Who would you start instead? Our best hitting lineup 1-7 is right handed (Gurriel is as well), Merrifield and Espinal are both significantly better against LHP in their career. I don't think much would change by starting Biggio and Tapia instead of Espinal and Merrifield, if anything it would be worse.
  17. Orgfiller
    Are you f***ing joking Teoscar?
  18. Orgfiller
    Holy f*** was that ever a horse s*** AB by Vlad. Three changeups nowhere near the zone and he swung at all of them almost ending the rally with yet another groundball.
  19. Orgfiller
    So the shift wording if I'm understanding correctly still allows for 5 man infield in extreme cases, although you can't stack 4 infielders on one side like I think has been done before by some team. 4 man outfield and the more traditional shift are goners for sure. We might see a modified shift with the third defender (the SS or 3B) essentially playing as straight up the middle as the rules allow, with them taking an extra step or two towards the pull side as the pitch is being delivered.

    This is fine and a neat narrative but most of the team's turnaround can be explained by regression to the mean. We literally have no idea what level of accountability was going on behind the scenes under Montoyo and the comparison to that of Schneider. This was always projected to be a good team so it's not surprising to see them eventually play up to what they were expected to do. I really don't think Montoyo, as much as I didn't love him as a tactical manager, was the reason the team was underperforming so much. He also had to deal with key injuries to the rotation, Kikuchi actually being a starter, and worse bullpen help/rotation depth prior to the deadline, which Schneider obviously benefited from. It's easy to say his firing was the catalyst and Schneider really lit a fire under them, but most likely this is all just random noise which the new manager gets to soak in the narrative from.

    Manoah a f***ing rock yet again in another big game.
  22. Orgfiller
    Manoah is so f***ing good.
  23. Orgfiller
    That was an exquisite pitch. Where did that miss ump?
  24. Orgfiller
    Rutschman is trying too hard lol.
  25. Orgfiller
    200 IQ by Schneider and Kirk.
