    Camera behind home plate just got absolutely shattered. Kind of an amazing 1 in 1 million type batted ball.
  2. Orgfiller
    Gavin Williams is dealing which is making that error hurt even more right now.
  3. Orgfiller
    Skubal just walked Austin Hedges on 4 pitches lol. That's gotta drive you up the wall if you want Detroit to win this game.

    Home plate ump with the tight zone early on. Already seen multiple potential strikeout pitches not called despite being rather definitively in the strikezone.

    Third worst offense in the league by wRC+. 3rd best defense, 7th best baserunning team. Starters are only 19th best and bullpen is 3rd best. Like I said before, they'll slap hit and run you wild on the bases since it's the only way they can consistently score runs outside hoping Jose Ramirez is coming up to hit every AB. Excellent defense and a good bullpen is how they stay in games if they can get a lead.

    Detroit with the early lead and Skubal painting 100 on the black. Brutal start for the Guardians.
  7. Orgfiller
    Not sure if it's a Sportsnet+ exclusive game or what, but I see all 4 games on SN+ online.

    Cleveland scares the s*** out of me, because they will wear you the f*** out with baserunning and ******** hits. Easier to accept a series loss against juggernaut, homerun heavy offenses than slap hitting goblins who use devil magic to find holes and run you dizzy on the basepaths. With that said, hope they beat Detroit who seems like a pretty mediocre team aside from Skubal, and the M's who are legit scary when they're firing on all cylinders like they have been the last two weeks. Rooting for the Brewers to make a deep run, just an excellently run org top to bottom.

    I'd say Varland since the stuff is outrageous, but with the likely possibility that he headlines an opener game I don't know if that changes his usage in a playoff series. Maybe it doesn't though? Dominguez is a little like Hoffman, except he trades giving up bombs for the likelihood of way more walks. He's pretty unhittable though, the stuff is nuts here too. I think the bullpen hierarchy should definitely come down to who has the best stuff right now. Varland + Seranthony are up there, Little too, with Fluharty and Fisher being firemen ready to be used at any point in the game. I'm as big of a believer in projections as anyone, but the projections are a different story than like June when Hoffman was still throwing 97 with regularity and getting shelled, than this version who throws 94 more often than he throws 96+, with s***** command of all pitches to boot.

    Zero chance we aren't lining up Gausman and Bieber for games 1 and 2, in any order. The potential for both of them to pitch twice in a series (if necessary) is significantly more important than whatever home/road splits our SP3 and below have. I think Yesavage is also clearly trending as the game 3 starter, I think you can read a lot into how they scheduled the pitching matchups for the crucial division clinching series against the Rays. Gausman-Bieber-Yesavage are the top 3.
  11. Orgfiller
    Fluharty is nails.

    500s and 503s errors happening much more frequently now @Brock Beauchamp probably on every other page load.
  13. Orgfiller
    Haven't had issues this week for the most part (although haven't been checking in on the game threads as much), but just got a few site isn't loading errors in 2/3 refreshes.

    I think this is a repeat of Donaldson vs. Trout in 2015 ish. They're close enough in fWAR that falls well within the margin of error to where you can't say one guy is obviously better than the other. Raleigh is doing something historic of his own right and will have the added narrative of driving the Mariners to their first division title in 24 years. What Judge is doing is historic of course, but he has the unfortunate negative of we've seen it before...from himself. I can't say bias isn't clouding my judgement. If Judge played for like, the Guardians or Tigers, I might be more inclined to say he deserves it. But right now it's a true toss up more or less, and one guy will have a stronger, pretty deserved narrative. Raleigh is putting up one of the best catcher seasons ever, not even the pre-integration (not counting Josh Gibson) or steroid era guys put up numbers like this at the catching position.

    Because IKF is 30 years old, not 45 with one foot into retirement. Him having all of 121 PAs against lefties this year is not enough to discount his entire career's worth, that's not how platoon regressions work. Barger this season has still been completely inept against LHP, and his carrying tool which is his power hasn't even been on display against them when he's not whiffing a third of the time. He has 1 homerun in 85 PAs and a .125 ISO. Both are awful and at worst project similarly against an arm like Crochet, but at least IKF will provide slightly better defense and baserunning, while allowing us to put Barger into a big PH opportunity later in the game.
  16. Orgfiller
    IKF career against LHP: 77 wRC+, 14% K rate Barger: 55 wRC+, 34% K rate Both are trash but IKF will at least make contact more often and hope to get a few bloop hits while providing better defense, and leaves Barger to be used as a pinch hitter late in the game. It's a marginal upgrade but the numbers say it's what you should be going for. Pretty sure Barger struggles against velocity as well, and that's gonna be magnified by velocity coming from a lefty. IKF over Barger is the right call for this one, like it or not.

    They need to use the Cam Schlittler gameplan. Go up there trying to foul off a bunch of pitches, prolong ABs, drive up the pitch count, and hope you get some BABIP luck, while getting into the bullpen early. Much easier said than done and Crochet is much more experienced + better (while only being 2 years older lol).
  18. Orgfiller
    Skubal is lapping Crochet in everything but W-L record, I don't think it's all that close.

    This is how Cleveland scored 3 runs off Skubal and ultimately won the game last night: https://np.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/1nozvmc/the_guardians_score_three_runs_in_the_6th_inning/ Absolutely disgusting. Don't get me wrong, Kwan's bunt was perfection and those guys run the bases extremely well, but the quality of contact on display getting rewarded is brutal. Skubal definitely did himself no favours, and was clearly rattled after the error only to really lose it after the HBP to the face. Jose Ramirez's hit, and Gabriel Arias' groundball scoring play would be repulsive to watch as the opposing team's fans.

    wat, since when can the magic number go up
  21. Orgfiller
    When Vlad is scuffling it's so easy to get him to expand the zone, he just completely loses his focus.
  22. Orgfiller
    How does Lukes not take charge there? Left Clement out to die.
  23. Orgfiller
    Last 3 batted balls xBA: .900, .350, .840, .350 All outs.
  24. Orgfiller
    lol
  25. Orgfiller
    Our xBA is .300, we have one hit.
