    Could just be his general reputation

    I've never looked at a players fg page under pitch type and seen XX for unknown pitch. But that must be it. That pitch is horsefeathering dirty. Props to the Rays for giving the 32 year old a chance and having him let it rip.
  3. We Got The Whole 9
    You have Mort pitching for 2 affiliates
  4. We Got The Whole 9
    I believe 10 games over is our high watermark and we've hit it twice, only to go on a pretty big slump almost immediately after. Hopefully the 2nd half Super Cubs are truly in effect and we're not just riding a high beating weak teams.
  5. We Got The Whole 9
    At least find a team to take Descalso so we can get Happ up and have more CF options so that we can keep our elite RF where he belongs
  6. We Got The Whole 9
    Strop is not helping us this year
  7. We Got The Whole 9
    I'd like to say he was looking fastball but he didn't swing at those in the zone either
  8. We Got The Whole 9
    12 horsefeathering hits good lord they are all over Lester
  9. We Got The Whole 9
    Wtf Javy get your head right
  10. We Got The Whole 9
    Must've underestimated Renfroe's speed
  11. We Got The Whole 9
    horsefeathers he gave it a good ride
  12. We Got The Whole 9
    wRC+ by month 127 106 81 30-something Sub 70 (I cant calculate with today's numbers) since June 1st

    Bote is miserable to watch. Both at the plate and in the field. A demotion might help him loosen up and get back on track.
  14. We Got The Whole 9
    Bote has to swing if a fastball comes in the zone
  15. We Got The Whole 9
    Got out of it hell yeah Jonny
  16. We Got The Whole 9
    Throw went to 3rd and Bote held the tag hoping he came off the bag. Tatis took off while the attention was elsewhere.
  17. We Got The Whole 9
    We are last in zone contact and 5th worst in swings per meatball. Those are huge problems that need addressing.
  18. We Got The Whole 9
    Yeah, another one that totally flipped from last year. I assume it's just randomness, but still very odd/frustrating. Our guys are extremely slow at identifying adjustments by opponents and adjusting.
  19. We Got The Whole 9
    Bote vs LHP might be a bigger laugh than Almora What a pathetic AB
  20. We Got The Whole 9
    horsefeathers it. Everybody defend up the middle.
  21. We Got The Whole 9
    I would not at all be mad if that were Russell leading off. Hes on a nice little run right now, might as well capitalize before he tanks again. 280/390/480 with a .80 BBK over his last 20 games. Almora there is just a fat middle finger to us all.
  22. We Got The Whole 9
    Did they, though? I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but I don't recall that being one of their big talking points early on. Yeah I don’t remember that at all and their actions certainly haven’t really backed it. Hey Underwood is knocking on the door, man
  23. We Got The Whole 9
    That is being exceedingly harsh to Corey Patterson, who put up a 2.5 WAR in half a season followed by a 5 WAR season, and then another 3.8 WAR season for the Orioles. The odds of Almora ever reaching Patterson's 10.9 career WAR is like 100 to 1. 100 to 1 seems like a bit of an over-exaggeration considering Almora has produced more WAR on a per PA basis so far in his career (3.0 in 1203 PA) than Patterson did in his (10.9 in 4499 PA). Not to say that he will keep up that pace for his entire career or even that he will get enough playing time in the majors to eclipse his WAR but its not unreasonable. His 2 best fwar seasons were like Kiermaier seasons. Below average offensively but insane defensive and base running value. I mean 11.3 bsr in 2006, holy horsefeathers. But defensively those appear to be quite fluky as well. Also he was a major pull hitter so it would be interesting to see how he would fare in this day of defensive positioning. He never had a full season with an above average bat. Obviously we recall how heartbroken we were in 2003 when he was really breaking out. Still love me some CPatt.
  24. We Got The Whole 9
    Hes finally gonna hit 3/4/6, right?
  25. We Got The Whole 9
    Alzolay walking the world again, including Dustin May, and Lux took him deep
