Lolllll

Fun with how credit/blame gets assigned: cubs bullpen this series: 8.2 innings, 3 ERs
-
Watching that second out and weirdly realizing I’ll forever be haunted by that ultimately harmless foul ball hit by Jason Kipnis in the ninth inning
-
I’ve never been as sure of anything as I am that tomorrows game will be a complete blow out one way or another. said another way: please can I just go to sleep
-
Seriously his numbers are going to look so good tomorrow. OBP over .400, more walks than Ks, his xwOBA was .371 before tonight.
-
Nico remembered how to hit….uh oh.
-
Turns out exhausted bullpens are bad at pitching regardless of who is in charge of the dugout.
-
Can we update this at some point
-
Cubs are committed to making sure there are no more high leverage situations, one way or another
-
Fuckkkkkkk yeah
-
We’ve got a couple of those guys, luckily
-
Any idea who’s pitching the 7th?
-
That’s bad hitting.
-
Let’s go Cody.

Decent start. Would make one tweak. Your calc is the base metric, but the index gets a 2 point bump if you can answer ‘Yes’ to the question ‘do you have Devin Williams as a relief option’
-
To be clear, you are trying to compare two managers and as part of your argument you are just making up theoretical suboptimal decisions for the guy you are arguing against.
-
Are we just making up hypotheticals now to defend counsell
-
Christopher morel has been worth -0.1 fWAR this year
-
Yeah thank god CC is here to play the terrible defensive third baseman with a 691 OPS going into this game. Can you imagine where we would be without his leadership in this hypothetical comparison
-
Not trying to be overly snarky, but what promises/who made them
-
Just checked the PBP data of the three game series they just had. Possible I missed something.
-
What are we trying to prove here, if the offense slumps come playoff time and only scores 4 runs a game and only goes 4-3 while somehow only playing road games, then we'd....potentially be in trouble? Alright, yeah, maybe!
-
Right, which is another way of describing guys like Dylan Cease, Bobby Miller, and Merrill Kelly.

I mean, you had first base open with two outs in a tie game in the bottom of the 8th. The only thing you should be worried about is getting the third out before the guy on second scores. Marte is a better hitter against LHP than Carroll, significantly (.724 OPS v .873 OPS, and a higher average (.303 v .272) since all you need is a base hit) based on the full body of information, not 31 PAs in 2024, and putting a runner on first base and giving yourself a force at any base makes it easier to record an out. Relatedly I will happily take any opportunity to point out the Cardinals being dumb, but unfortunately I don't think that's actually a true story. The only time I saw them change pitchers before a Carroll AB in the three game set they just had was when they pulled Mikolas (a righty) for Andre Vallente (another righty).
