    Cool, glad you enjoyed it, here's the Fangraphs piece https://blogs.fangraphs.com/don-mattingly-talks-hitting/ and the article from O'Leary https://clients.chrisoleary.com/hitting/model-swings/don-mattingly

    The first question that should be asked "what's your hitting philopshy?" since now he has the "authority"

    we seem to bring up players at the wrong time (just going off memory), Horwitz should have been promoted a while ago (based on his numbers and age - especailly his age), same with Schneider - at least for a good trial run. It's the only way to know if they are ready. Otherwise making decisions based on Septmeber numbers is risky.
  5. hanton
    Horwitz is unproven at the mlb level

    lmao too much....what did he say when they asked him about Berrios being pulled so early? something like "I found out when you did". Who would say that
  7. hanton
    No not necessarily "no good" but he is old school - "short to the ball", just do a google search, there's a recent article on Fantragphs (I beleive it's from 2021 - he tells you his philosphy). Also this from 2018 "Why Marlins Manager Don Mattingly Doesn't Buy Into "Launch Angle" | The Dan Patrick Show " There's also a piece on Chris O'Leary's site where he breaks down Mattingly's swing (not his philosphy), showing him trying to create big lunch angle. So maybe Mattingly just can't explain what he does naturally at the plate.

    Rare exchange between a reporter and a GM, Cashman (questioning the Yankees player development)
  9. hanton
    this just seems like change for the sake of change ?
  10. hanton
    The new rules were a non issue I would leave everything as is for another season - the disengagement limits were whatever - didn't really impact too many game outcomes if any at all
  11. hanton
    Yes, he gave them a home town discount, he loves LA.
  12. hanton
    He just needs to get more than the QO which he certainly will on a 2/3 year deal. He's the best 2b on the market so he's in a good spot
  13. hanton
    well if they don't pick it up it doesn't matter what he does I'm just saying he wasn't coming back, for his part it's a signal he's confident he can get a multi year deal in a weak FA class
  14. hanton
    Merrifield was declining anyway
  15. hanton
    I was never on board with getting rid of Martinez but it's time, don't care about a "strategist" being reassigned (whatever that means)
  16. hanton
    yea the 1st pitch to Carrol was right at the bottom of the zone, clearly a strike
  17. hanton
    dbacks 9 LOB so far
  18. hanton
    Gurriel calling off Thomas to make that catch LOL that was as good catch
  19. hanton
    sac bunt? ok kinda weird with Eovaldi not throwing strikes
  20. hanton
    they're laying off that splitter.....
  21. hanton
    phillies, braves, dodgers take your pick
  22. hanton
    the dbacks bullpen LMFAO
  23. hanton
    I've yet to see the other 4 swings that Seager presumably has
  24. hanton
    is that a quote from Atkins
  25. hanton
    wow no Adolis? that's a huge loss for the Rangers
