That’s how i feel. I really wanted them to build in Gary closer to Lake Michigan.. It’s upsetting. At least they’d still have a scenic view of wolf lake to remind us of the good old days.
That’s how you should feel about him. He’s been derailed by injuries and was a below replacement level player in 486 PAs with LA last season. A potential depth option and at best a lottery ticket.
I wouldn’t get excited about a guy with only 21 effective doubles last season either,
This guy’s awesome. Unlike Cubs dude this guy even invented his own stat whereas cubs dude was all talk no action when it came to being an intellectual heavyweight. Fangraphs will add a fourth run value category for EFV2B if they catch wind of this.
He’d have to be borderline unplayable to not make the opening day roster since DH is his spot to lose. Shaw was putrid and was still in the opening day lineup.
With all due respect, Sabermetrics are complicated enough. It took me a while to accept and apply fancy stats like WRC+, WOBA and FIP. Effective 2B (EFV28) is information overload. Let’s pump the breaks for now.
Mo will likely always be around 20% body fat? That’s a healthy range for for him. For PCA 15% would be relatively chunky. No amount of dieting and conditioning will get give him a visible six pack with his frame. .
That’s what I’m thinking. I’m guessing players would be either be benched, demoted to Pawtucket and or have their buzzer wearing privileges taken away if they refused to publicly speak out in favor of Bregman as a favor to Cora’s cheater in crime entering free agency.
The Redsox are at Cora’s mercy.
Thanks. The only thing I have to add is that the McCaskys are Beverly hillbillies whose only source of income comes from owning an NFL team. Of course they want funding from the state in some form. Kronkie is a self made billionaire too,
I’m also curious why they’d chose a toxic wasteland to build a stadium in Hammond. Unless it’s adjacent to a major highway is it the optics of being in walking distance of the Chicago border? I just imagine Fox coming back from commercial with an Ariel view of wolf lake with a close up of a guy in a hazmat suit collecting water samples from wolf lake outside of the tide detergent done
It’s a pain in the ass of a location for anyone north of the city. Either way it’s not like they’re moving to Kentucky. Hammond is right across the street from the city anyways.
You won’t smell the rotten eggs in a closed air stadium either so not the end of the world.
Bad look for Illinois though.
