4 of my (i.e., Gibbers') starters have posted 10+ K performances this week already. On the other hand, the hitters have gone 2/33 so that's less fun.
-
Holy f***ing s***. This season strikes again. -
What was all of that. Ugh, great outing from Brett Anderson.
-
I think you would be mistaken. Sale makes everyone look bad.
-
I love Brett Anderson.
-
The kid can hit. I don't know if he'll tap into it enough but he has pretty legit raw power.
-
Welp, Raffy Lopez with another mammoth foul ball.
-
Holy f***, he did it again! Another unreal play!
-
Lol Junior Cruz, nice one Buck. I think you were going for Jose Cruz Jr.
-
Nah don't worry, I appreciate you trying to expand your knowledge of newer stats. By FIP and xFIP, you would be right that Stroman has benefited from some luck, however even if his ERA matched those two, Stroman would still be performing admirably. Remember this is the AL East and he plays in a hitter's park so his numbers are expected to be higher than some of his counterparts around the league.
-
At least Maile was a f***ing rock behind the dish. They're all s*** at hitting but at least give me the ones that won't be leaking back there while handling the pitching staff well.
-
I don't mean to pile on gruber, but your point about Stroman being lucky wasn't quite supported during that inning lol.
-
Raffy Lopez is really getting on my f***ing nerves.
-
f***
-
His FIP is 3.86 (FIP- is 87), xFIP is 3.63 (xFIP- is 83). Absolutely nothing s*** about it.
-
His BABIP is .311 and HR/FB is 17% lmao, he's been lucky with getting GIDPs if anything, but otherwise he's actually been rather unlucky.
-
A somewhat darkhorse candidate is Andrew McCutchen. Insane peak as a top 3 player in the game, and with his resurgence this year as a good - not elite as he was a few years back - hitter, if he finishes out strong he could have a chance. Will be 31 to start next season.
-
It could be the early knee injuries if anything, but since he rebounded for back to back 6+ win seasons. He's an elite defender and officially made the transition from good doubles hitter to tapping into his power with consistency a couple of seasons ago. He may be a douche but it hasn't affected his play to date and with his tools, barring any serious injuries he's very much on track for a HoF career.

I could very well be talking out of my ass here, but I think generally switch-hitters get more praise than say, an equally good hitter from only one side. This is due to a couple of reasons as I see it: 1) it's hard enough to hit major league pitching effectively from one side, so it's doubly as impressive to be able to do it from both, and 2) they always have the platoon advantage, i.e. you can't really bring in a righty/lefty specialist to face them, even though certain switch hitters do have different splits, though if they're good enough those tend to be less significant than a single-sided batter. So in the grand scheme of things, when comparing a switch hitter to their single sided counterparts, all else being equal, the former gets slightly more praise/would be preferred.
-
You also missed Manny Machado among the younger players. Trout makes everyone look bad in comparison, but Harper and Machado are 23 and 29 respectively in career WAR through age 24. Those guys are absurdly talented and they're being overlooked because of how good Trout is.
-
Beltran should/probably will get in. 67 fWAR with homers, steals, Gold Gloves and he'll get the switch-hitter boost. Excellent player.
-
Buster Posey >>>> Yadier Molina, and the former is 5 years younger, has an MVP, multiple Silver Sluggers (could end up with more), a GG and is probably a better defender than Molina tbh. FWIW those 3 World Series won't hurt.
-
Not looking to do much, but if you have a trade idea in mind hit me up and maybe we can work something out. I am NOT trading Correa for multiple lesser pieces, so please don't. I am looking to move Sabathia, still a decent innings eater.

Jim won't let us forget this. -
I don't care about the homer, Tim Mayza is so good. His stuff is legit.
