  1. That series was peak Coors
  2. That’s a pretty fair assessment. I would be surprised if LeMahieu only put up a 99 wRC+ going forward (I think projection systems penalize him too much for playing in Coors his whole career), but Alvarez seems like a safe bet to top 110 the way he’s playing.
  3. Huge 2 run jack by Rizzo in the 9th off Jansen
  4. I didn’t even mean any shade towards Houston. Obviously y’all have a badass team, esp when you factor in pitching. But a healthy Judge-Stanton-Sanchez-Voit-EE middle of the order hits 200 bombs if fully healthy. Don’t think any team in baseball compares to that.
  5. Yeah sorry that’s no comparison to the yanks. Big advantage in pitching tho
  6. It’s been a long time since bullpens in MLB were this shitty. Every night we see someone blowing a big lead Edit: Just saw the Phillies meltdown from earlier. At least they tried
  7. An incredible shitting of the bed by the Rockies in the 9th
  8. Diamondbacks go back-to-back-to-back to start tonight. Eickhoff’s HR/9 ain’t pretty

  10. The Twins are awesome. Remind me a lot of the Ranger teams from earlier this decade. GM is from the Rangers too
  11. Diaz has been shaky too. Meanwhile Kelenic’s numbers in the Sally League at age 19: 50 games, .309/.394/.586, 11 homers and plays CF. Already been promoted to high A. Such a Mets trade
  12. Defensive value. SS more valuable than 1B
  13. Top Batters in May per FG AL: 1) Trout (LAA), .275/.427/.604, 1.8 WAR t2) Polanco (MIN), .355/.427/.552, 1.5 WAR t2) Bogaerts (BOS), .314/.400/.552, 1.5 WAR t4) Bregman (HOU), .260/.363/.635, 1.4 WAR t4) Devers (BOS), .351/.380/.640, 1.4 WAR NL: 1) Arenado (COL), .425/.479/.783, 2.1 WAR (good lord) t2) Bell (PIT), .390/.442/.797(!), 1.8 WAR t2) Bryant (CHC), .333/.443/.719, 1.8 WAR 4) Rizzo (CHC), .355/.435/.688, 1.5 WAR 5) Story (COL), .309/.382/.609, 1.4 WAR
  14. When does the devaluation of RBs in the NFL hit college recruiting? Gone are the days of the 30 carry/game workhorse. Running backs that succeed in the NFL need to be able to run routes, catch the ball, pass block, etc. With that being said, I don’t understand would a 18yo RB with NFL dreams would sign up to play in some shitty dur dur “pound the rock” dur dur offense (looking at you LSU and Georgia). Hell, Georgia barely used Nick Chubb as a receiver and then all of the sudden he’s catching 5 passes a game for the Browns. They misused him while he was in school. Schools that feature their RBs in the passing game are going to see their players drafted earlier.
  15. Derek Dietrich has 7 homers in 22 AB vs the pirates this year (3 today)
  16. When it rains, it pours with the Mets. Baseball’s most unintentionally hilarious team.
  17. There’s lots of promising pitchers in the low minors. Obviously pitching prospects are fickle, but we haven’t had the quantity of guys before. And look 5 years ago, when the farm system was loaded, it was because of guys like Gallo, Maz, and Odor. Those guys need to produce and for the most part they haven’t consistently.
  18. Gonna be a long drive back to college station for rockets fans
  19. Tommy La Stella and Derek Dietrich have combined for 19 HRs.
  20. And Darvish has still walked 6 of them in 4 innings
  21. We’re about 25% through the season. Here are the latest playoff odds per FG. AL: 1) HOU - 98.9% 2) MIN - 84.8% 3) NYY - 83.4% 4) TB - 75.3% 5) CLE - 69.2% 6) BOS - 65.3% NL: 1) LAD - 97.7% 2) CHC - 77.8% 3) PHI - 57.0% 4) STL - 50.6% 5) MIL - 47.8% 6) WAS - 45.6%
  22. Gonna go out on a limb and say Chris Paddack will win a CY one day.
