    there was a split at nsbb in the early aughts between the Steve Stone fundamentalists and the Kent Mercker extremists. The Mercker extremists combined with Adam Dunn and Len Kasper truthers to create da louneg, where we mostly came up with insane plots aimed at making certain posters mad. Once Facebook took off, we began spying on NSBB members and I gotta say, 20+ years later as a 44-year-old adult, I am at times embarassed by how much I know about you people.

    all of the big scoring games are a little fraudulent, except ironically maybe Luka's 70-pointer (he went like 25-33 from the field lol) Even Wilt, they say the other team was intentionally fouling late to let him get to 100. Kobe and Bam both went crazy and then got the "horsefeathers it lets see what happens if we leave him out there" treatment. I will say that the Wizards were really working on Bam, a lot of those fouls were legit. To me the bigger issue is Kobe's 81 still looked like basketball in the 4th. Bam's looked like LA Fitness ball. Devin Booker had a 70-point night and it got pretty scammy late too. Looking it up, I forgot Mitchell and Dame both had 70-pointers that look real. Bam's real problem is he beat Kobe and the shots he beat Kobe on were gimmick free throws with the Heat fouling the Wizards up 30 to get Bam the ball back faster. I dont know, it was cool to see but I dont know that anyone is gonna care too much

    a walk/single+a sb does not equal a double. You ever see someone knock a runner in with a stolen base?

    its not so much "can mo get to average behind the plate," because he can probably get close enough that it doesn't matter. the question is probably "how long can he stay close to average behind the plate" and that answer is probably "not very long at all"

    man if you go in the comments of any relatively busy fangraphs article, tom is in there talking about disney and getting downvoted to hell. i've never seen a more mentally ill poster in my life

    i would much rather have Bregman committed for half a decade than have to be back in the 3B market next offseason after Bichette opts out.

    personally, as much as i think shaw probably never again hits as well as he did in the second half last year, i think it would be a mistake to trade him. He can theoretically provide cover at 7-8 different positions if we realllllly stretch it out and assume he could swing the OF. Suzuki is hurt every year, Bregman will miss time. Nico will shift to SS if Dansby goes down, etc. Maybe they can turn Shaw into 5 Below Zobrist. Shaw's batted ball data is so ugly, I just kind of assume you wouldn't get as much back for him as you think you would. Probably worth a season to see if you make him a 450 ab super sub

    lol the dodgers are spending more on one season of kyle tucker than the pirates have ever paid out in a contract ever over the course of its lifetime

    Hilarious

    i didnt realize Contreras got shipped out. Hard to believe he's 33. Man he's had a pretty cool career, late bloomer prospect, impact bat on a world series team. Fair bet to end his career north of 30 fWAR, which would rank in the top 10-12 catchers this century
