  1. I just turned this on. What wizardry is this?
  2. Because a 7 AB sample size is more predictive than a 500+ AB sample size because reasons
  3. Schwarber will always have bad avg/obp slash lines because his BABIP will always suffer so long as teams are allowed to overshift for him. You either live with that or you complain about it 24 times a day
  4. Batting 1st in order: .237/.250/.322 1st batter of the game: .154/.154/.154 But he didn't tell Maddon he's uncomfortable leading off, so it's fine
  5. Maybe leading off an inning other than the first, but not hitting from the leadoff spot this year. Hitting leadoff this season... .159/.227/.377/.603 A meaningless stat
  6. And I’m just busting balls over the term “lead off”. Edith means “when Joe puts him at the #1 spot in the order”, which has no magic positive or negative effect. I’m stating his OBP when he leads off an inning, which (in my pedantic brain) is a truer definition of “when Jason leads off”. Carry on.
  7. Got that leadoff OBP over .200 for the year. His OBP is over .300 when he leads off
  8. Just not a great night at the plate for anyone. Swung at a ton of really bad pitches, and took a ton of strikes on the outside edge (which the ump was calling all game)
  9. Lorenzen looks like a guy who starts bar fights when someone "looks at his girl"
  10. We won against Castillo at least once already this season
  11. Yu just can't help but give up 3 or 4 HR's per game
  12. Uh, that is good news. Relax. This [expletive] doesn't understand sample size
  13. What the hell are our batters swinging at? Half of them have made at least one swing on a pitch 2 feet off the plate
  14. We're just getting all of our strikeouts out of the way early
  15. Thom Brenneman could not be more on Aquino's dick. Jesus H Christ, it's embarrassing
  16. Heyward when he's LEADING OFF an inning: .284/.322/.532
  17. I hope they dong Trevor Bauer to death
  18. Fun fact: Ian Happ (36 PA's): 0.6 fWAR Nick Castellanos (35 PA's): 0.6 fWAR Albert Almora (330 PA's): 0.0 fWAR Other players with higher offensive fWAR than Almora include Kyle Hendricks, Jon Lester, Tyler Chatwood, Robel Garcia, Ben Zobrist and JONATHAN LUCROY
  19. No Almora is all I care about. The rest is gravy
  20. Soccer and ?????? Surely you're not suggesting that ice hockey has the same pace of play as soccer. SURELY it's even more irritatingly fast paced and low scoring Nah. I'll take 30 shots on goal in a 60 minute game over 5 shots on goal in a 90 minute game (on a playing field 4x the size)
