  1. very cool. I didn't know Cal Stevenson was a stud defensively.
  2. The Nats have a s*** ton of deferred payment. It's an incredible list.
  3. Any thoughts on how successful the NBA/NFL initiatives in Europe (or Mexico) have been? I mean in general, promoting the game across the world seems worthwhile; however, if you do it year after year, does it lose it's luster/effect?
  4. So Keri is full of s***? noice.
  5. Gurriel's now up to a wRC+ of 160.....4th best in baseball
  6. He says Jansen's framing hasn't been good. That may be true (I'm too lazy to figure out where you look that up), but he's posted a 9.6 DEF value per Fangraphs to date this year, which is fantastic and allowed him to be above replacement level with just a 48 wRC+
  7. + Ohtani They have 2 of the most marketable players in the game. The Angels in the playoffs is incredible for baseball.
  8. That was my point...doesn't it include a lot of 'luck' like BABIP?
  9. Man - Trout really compares well to Mickey Mantle (with a little more speed). Let's hope he doesn't become a raging alcoholic.
  10. Over his last 181.3 innings, Hyun-Jin Ryu has an ERA of 1.59
  11. 2018: 1.89 ERA 2.95 FIP, 3.16 xFIP 11.01 K/9 3.19 BB/9 .241 BABIP 88 LOB% 2019: 5.01 ERA 3.48 FIP, 3.20 xFIP 11.96 K/9 3.30 BB/9 .357 BABIP 66 LOB% Are hitters taking a different approach? or is there just a ton of luck involved in those last 2 metrics?
  12. As a minimum, shouldn't Alford and even J.Davis be quality 4th OFers? CFers who run like the wind and play all 3 OF positions? If these guys could post wRC+'s in the low 90's, we'd be set.
  13. Snell's basically the same guy he was last year. Last year he has a ton of luck, this year, no luck. Same pitcher.
  14. A few random thoughts (following some time sifting through Fangraphs) 1. Blake Snell is the new poster boy for advance analytics. 2. The Willians Astudillo hype died quick. 3. Ted Williams was incredible (I mean I always knew he was...but good lord sometimes you forget until you examine those numbers again). Anyone else do that? Just sift through player page after player page on Fangraphs? Probably my favourite way to escape reality (without a bottle of Jergans)
  15. Jansen's WAR is still higher than Vlady's in a similar number of games and PA's. That's either encouraging as it means his defense has been great and thus when the bat comes around, he'll be a solid starting catcher. Or it's really sad how poorly Vlady's first couple months in the majors have gone.
  16. His 2nd 1,2,3 inning this year. He was hitting 90 on the gun.
  17. Good point. Shatkins should be fired.
  18. Morales is released by the Yankees.
  19. Listening to Buck, Tabby, Joe Morgan and Eck simply because they played in the MLB has to be one of the most insane statements I've ever heard on this board.
  20. At first I misread that as 'Baines'. Then I got upset thinking about how stupid it is that he was elected to the HOF. Thanks.
  21. yeah...that's not true.
  22. In other news. Pillar still has a negative WAR on the season (-0.4), including -0.1 as a Giant. The fact that Shatkins got anything at all for him is probably a small miracle.
