Japanese people must think we are all a bunch of Captain No-Funs at baseball games. They seem to have so much fun with it.

Not sure if I'm more impressed by the pitch or Martin's ability to lay off it.

Not sure how to work this, so forgive me, but surprised nobody mentioned about the Santana sticking tongue out to Eric Hosmer.

Reminds me of the one from last year when he was challenging Dee Gordon to steal third on him:

He's another player with enormously different WAR between BR and Fangraphs. Is this coming down to a difference in defensive metrics again or do they weigh the SB differently, too?

● Calculating Defense (2002-Present). For recent seasons, each system uses a different defensive metric. fWAR uses UZR, while rWAR uses Total Zone. UZR is considered more accurate, but is only available from 2002 onward, while TotalZone values can be calculated for any player in baseball history. As such, fWAR uses UZR for every year from 2002 onward, and it uses Total Zone for earlier seasons.

 

● Baserunning. Both rWAR and fWAR includes base running, although they use different metrics. fWAR uses Ultimate Base Running (UBR) & Weighted Stolen Base Runs (wSB), while rWAR uses their own linear-weights-based system.
