    I think it's Betts. Seager was incredible. Muncy too.
  2. Brownie19
    Stay classy Texas...f***.
  3. Brownie19
    This is insane. He got pulled DURING the game for a positive COVID test? WTF

    Exactly. People can arm chair and belly ache about how butt hurt they are that baseball is changing and they don't like change - but this is reality. Although it may not seem that way, baseball is a combination of soft factors (gut feelings, eye test) and hard factors (analytics). All teams use a combination of both to make the thousands of decisions during the course of a game.

    Gut, eye, stats - literally everything suggests Jansen shouldn't be pitching!

    Gonsolin Floro Wood Baez Gonzalez Gateraol Urias Look at all the high prices horses that LA ran out there today!!! holy f***.

    You can't be so simplistic to suggest the Dodgers win because they outspent everyone.
  8. Brownie19
    Some are s***ing on this 'formulated' approach....yet we're about to see the Dodgers win the WS on a bullpen day when they have used 7 pitchers. You think he's been using his gut and the eye test all game?
  9. Brownie19
    No offense, but you're not a trained baseball eye. None of us are. TB's formula isn't fool proof. It won't work every time and they won't win every game.....but they've proven their formula is pretty successful. The 2 teams in the World Series use analytics as much as anyone in baseball. Whether people like it or not, the old adage of managers going with a gut feeling and such will be phased out of baseball...mainly because the success of eye tests and gut feelings is not that great. Very few are consistently good at it. The issue is nobody talks about all the times managers go with their gut and it proves to be pure s***. We only hear managers praise themselves by saying they went with their gut when it works out. Side note - Betts is phenomenal. MVP

    Holy f*** Jim - Snell went 'more' than 6 innings twice in 2019....TWICE
  11. Brownie19
    How many times was he "on" his game in the 100 innings he's faced a lineup for a 3rd time in his career? It may be more than you think.
  12. Brownie19
    I get it. Again - not saying it's right or wrong, but if you want SSS, then Snell's ERA the 3rd time through is 6.35. If people want to talk about "going with your best" when the game is on the line. Nick Anderson has essentially been the best reliver in baseball since arriving in TB last year. FIP of about 1.50. 2 WAR in 37 2/3 innings. But I get it, he hasn't been as dominant lately....but your weighing that v. Snell against the lineup a 3rd time where he's historically been poor too. TB makes these types of moves and has really good success more often than not.
  13. Brownie19
    Except what Jim said is incorrect Snell's thrown 101 1/3 innings in his career facing the order the 3rd time and they have been pretty s*****. Career ERA of 4.97.
  14. Brownie19
    Buck Martinez said it's a bad move...my bad, he must be right. LOL. I'm not saying it's the wrong move or the right move. I'm telling you that it's the way TB plays the game and they've been extremely successful doing it and you have to respect that they probably know significantly more about this move than anyone watching...and finally that you're a f***ing donut if you didn't expect to see them make this move, or if you think Kevin Cash gives a f*** what people think.
  15. Brownie19
    Snell's averaged less than 5 innings per start in 2019 and 2020. TB has been protecting him v. the 3rd time through the lineup for awhile now....even when he won the Cy Young he averaged less than 6 inning per start. He isn't DeGrom or Max at all.
  16. Brownie19
    As Cash said - this is the way we do things. Pitchers need short memories and thick skin. You guys can say you don't like this style of baseball all you want because you prefer traditional managing and want people to make decisions with their gut - but you have to respect what TB does and the results they get. Competitive for 12 years in row now, all while rolling out a bottom 5 or 6 payroll. I mean Jays24 - you seem confused and upset by this decision like you expected something different? That's on you bruh. Cash isn't going to change his approach in Game 6 of the WS. He doesn't give 2 f***s whether you or anyone in baseball thinks they are crazy. They are in the WS man.
  17. Brownie19
    Can we compare it to Game 2 when Cash did the same thing, it worked and they won the game?
  18. Brownie19
    Press conferences are f***ing stupid.
  19. Brownie19
    what a beautiful game.
  20. Brownie19
    Buck rhyming off Lou Brock counting stats made me look him up. I was surprised he actually wasn't that good. 43.2 career WAR. Of course he (probably undeservingly) made the HOF because of the stolen bases, which is....whatever, but to find out he was the 20th person ever to be inducted in his first year of eligibility was pretty alarming. Players with more career WAR: Mike Cameron Andrew McCutchen Matt Holiday Granderson Tony Phillips JD Drew Mark Grace Interesting stuff.
  21. Brownie19
    ?? what's your deal?
  22. Brownie19
    Devin Williams was named the 2020 Trevor Hoffman National League Reliever of the Year. Williams bested fellow finalists Trevor Rosenthal and Jeremy Jeffress to earn the award. wha, hrmmm, why the f*** was Jeremy Jeffress a finalist? 6.56 K/9 4.62 BB/9 4.69 xFIP
  23. Brownie19
    Completely agree unfortunately. This game is shaping up to be a close one hopefully.
  24. Brownie19
    Buck continues his assult on the game of baseball. Catchers shouldn't try to frame the ball and cheat sheets are for pussies! Get this ******* off the air.
  25. Brownie19
    Walker is fun to watch.
