  1. Maile was fine when he was merely a below average hitter. When he's one of the worst hitters in the game that's another thing, and it's a problem.
  2. It appears that way unfortunately.
  3. How the f*** did he hit a no doubter off that pitch? That was Mike Trout-esque.
  4. Man when Fisher connects it's easy power.
  5. Lol @ Buck saying "Smoak is gonna score" as if it was any guarantee that he could make it home in time.
  6. You sub either based on injury or strategy. If you're losing you're likely to put in an attacking player, if you're winning and need to hold you might sub in a defending player (e.g. sub out the striker for a defensive midfielder). If none of those are true you might still sub out one player for another with better stamina, or you have what they call a "super-sub". There's also the second keeper.
  7. Sometimes you kind of roll your eyes when a manager is widely hated by the fanbase without much valid reasoning, and then you see quotes like this and you start to see where they're coming from:
  8. Mike Trout wanted to let Pete have this moment so he went a modest 4-4 with a HR and a walk.
  9. Blake Treinen last year: 0.78 ERA, 1.82 FIP, 25.1% K-BB%, 3.6 WAR. Just 2 homers given up in 80 innings, nearly unhittable (plus some luck of course). Blake Treinen this season: 5.38 FIP, 1.48 K/BB, 8 HR in 50 innings, negative WAR. Liam Hendriks 2018: 4.33 FIP, 11.5 K-BB%, 0.1 WAR Liam Hendriks 2019: 1.85 FIP, 4.63 K/BB, 2.7 WAR Relievers, not even once.
  10. Carlos Correa is hitting some insane bombs lately.
  11. Follows it up with a competitive four-pitch walk.
  12. Sanchez is getting f***ing destroyed.
  13. Stroman did not have a good start. His peripherals were terrible: 5 K, 4 BB, 2 HR in 5.1 IP. Easily his worst start as a Met.
  14. Awful start for Stroman. 5 strikeouts, 4 walks, 2 HR given up in less than 6 innings. Luckily for him the Mets gave him a bunch of run support.
  15. I honestly wonder if the velocity drop is just him trying to command his pitches better. The fastball is still basically unhittable when he locates it alright, so if focuses on just increasing his arm strength and coming in firing bullets one inning at a time he could still be a viable reliever who's occasionally unplayable when the command is garbage.
  16. He's just fishing for attention, don't mind him.
  17. Torn ACL for DeMarcus Cousins. He might be pretty much done at this point, that's three consecutive major leg injuries for what is a very big man.
  18. Fun fact: Vlad Jr. is the third youngest position player to have played for the Dunedin Blue Jays this season. Technically second since we had someone called Hugo Cardona make a random one game appearance and then be sent back to rookie ball lol. Bo was the sixth youngest. Both were on rehab stints of course. Just to give some perspective on how f***ing good at baseball those two guys are, they'd be young for high-A and here they are, succeeding at the MLB level.
  19. What's nuts is Jorge Alfaro coming in at 59th, just below Tim Anderson and ahead of Bellinger, Michael A. Taylor and Derek Fisher.
  20. Yeah the dude is seriously fast. He could be so good if he got those strikeouts under control.
  21. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/sprint_speed_leaderboard Socrates Brito is 12th in the entire league in sprint speed. "his speed may average or even slightly above" Just admit you don't know what you're talking about in an effort to make Alford look good. Brito sucks but it's not like he doesn't have any tools, he's not Rowdy Tellez who has a bit of power and nothing else. Boxy isn't comparing anyone, he's using a hyperbole claim which mimics your own since you clearly don't know who you're talking about here.
  22. This is just straight up incorrect lol. Brito is quite fast and he's a pretty capable defender.
  23. Pearson and Groshans are obvious, I think he means among the "on the cusp according to industry" guys.
  24. His body of work is 760 innings in the outfield, plus the minor leagues where he was clearly liked enough there given that he played CF regularly, not 7 games for the Blue Jays where he looked stupid on one flyball and has been fine in his other 4 or 5 chances.
  25. What the f*** are you talking about? Mike Trout dropped a routine flyball last week, he must be some bum eh? Yeah the defensive metrics don't draw up a proper picture, but your week and a half of watching Derek Fisher get 5 opportunities in the outfield sure have.
