  1. Born again prospect
  2. It's currently .946 for Yophery to .885 for Brian, or a 148 wRC+ to a 133 wRC+. Sanchez is also a year and a half older, a corner outfielder, and has worse plate discipline/stolen base numbers. He also never flashed the kind of tools that get guys a $1.5M sigining bonus. Sure, his OPS is only 61 points lower than Yophery's, but he's trailing him considerably in every other area too.
  3. Sinker and two seam fastball are pretty much the same thing. Screwball was always an offspeed or breaking pitch. Think it might have even been called an in-curve in old days.
  4. Hiura was hurt when Singleton got the call.
  5. There is only one legit contender in the NL this year, the Braves. Everyone else is pretending and hoping to get hot for 5 or 7 games in October.
  6. They already have gotten better... First 68 Games (34-34): 86 wRC+ and 4.03 R/G Last 47 Games (27-20): 93 wRC+ and 4.57 R/G
  7. 106.6 MPH at 24 degree launch angle goes 459 feet.
  8. DSL2 prevails 7-2 over Blue Guardians. Filippo Di Turi (1-3, 2B, BB, SB of home), Luis Lameda (3-3, BB), Pedro Ibarguen (2-4) and Estefano Lozano (2-4, 2B) all reached multiple times in addition to the aforementioned Demetrio Nadal (1-2, BB, HBP, SF, 2xSB). Luis Guevara went five strong with 1 R | 2 H | 1 BB | 3 K while Lenin Mendez followed up with two frames of 1 BB | 3 K.
  9. Hiura's numbers last year are of limited relevance. Last year Urias had a 739 OPS, this year it was 535 Last year Adames had a 756 OPS, this year it is 662 Last year Rowdy had a 767 OPS, this year it is 672 Last year Taylor had a 729 OPS, this year it is 539 If MLB teams thought Hiura's 2022 MLB numbers were representative of his true talent level (and not mostly small sample noise), he would have been claimed after ST or someone would have dealt for him before the deadline. He might even still be eligible for a trade under the same provision that Naquin was, though being on the 40 man during ST might disqualify him, not sure on the exact verbiage.
  10. Edwin Jimenez toeing the rubber for Wisco in game two. Lineup is… Doston LF Gray Jr. CF Wilken DH Hall C Ward RF Garcia SS Acosta 2B Metzinger 1B Vargas 3B
  11. Hall (walk) and Acosta (double) link up for another TRat run top of six. Smith has two scoreless frames under his belt with a single, two walks and two punch outs (not the Jose Ramirez kind). Wood, Wilken, Martinez lined up top of seven.
  12. Wisco up 4-2 after top of five. Alex Hall and Jose Acosta went back to back, then Ernesto Martinez doubled home Brock Wilken, who had walked for the second time earlier. Joe Gray Jr. also 2-3 with a SB and the other run scored. Bradley Blalock went 4 IP | 2 R | 2 H | 3 BB | 6 K in his Brewers debut with Shane Smith on in relief bottom of five.
  13. It all looked so innocuous to start with, but once Anderson threw off his glove and put his dukes up it got real, fast. I’d put my money on Rougned Odor or Nolan Ryan over either one, but JRam did dodge a couple shots and land a nice blind counter punch to Anderson’s chin that knocked him to the canvas, er dirt, so I scored it a 10-8 round for Jose.
  14. “What’s bothering you?” ”My face hurts, Doc.” ”Put some ice on it.” ”But that’s how it got hurt in the first place?!?!?” ”Apply the ice at a lower velocity this time.”
  15. Carlos Rodriguez (the outfielder) with his first HR of the season top of third. Tobias Myers with 1 H | 1 BB | 4 K through three scoreless frames.
  16. Back to back doubles from Jahmai Jones and Patrick Dorrian plated another run for the Sounds bottom of seven. Only problem is Durham scored six runs twixt the two Dorrian RBIs so Nashville trails 7-2 with two sets of three outs remaining.
  17. Well, that didn’t take long, Isaac Collins goes deep for the 7th time this year. 1-0 Shuckers as the Blue Wahoos come to bat.
  18. Biloxi status has changed to “warmup” on the MiLB game day link so looks like they should be able to maybe get this one in.
  19. 107.9 MPH exit velo times 28 degree launch angle equals 418 feet if all the invisible laser beams are to be believed.
  20. Mudcats turned to Yerlin Rodriguez for the ninth and he surrendered a lead off home run before striking out a pair for his 8th save in as many opportunities. Now up to 30 K | 9 BB over 25.1 IP in his age 21 campaign.
  21. Luis Castillo (1-4, 2B, BB) and Jadher Areinamo (2-3, 2B, BB) doing the heavy lifting on offense as Carolina leads 4-1 Yujanyer Herrera has thrown two scoreless with 3 H | 2 K in relief of Logan Henderson. See if he comes back out for the 9th at 33 pitches so far.
  22. With Frelick/Uribe coming up on graduation and Jarvis traded, gotta think Henderson takes one of those vacated Top 20 spots in end of the year voting.
  23. The one year all of Burnes, Woodruff, Peralta were healthy with Williams/Hader in the pen they ran away with the division, but yes the offense went cold in the DS to the eventual WS Champs after scoring the most runs in the NL for three plus months after the Adames acquisition. 2022 the offense improved from 12th to 10th in runs scored, from 19th to 11th in wRC+, from 15th to 8th in WAR, a five win improvement. Unfortunately the rotation went from 2nd in rWAR (22.3) to 14th (13.0), minus nine wins there. The bullpen went from +5.90 WPA (5th) in 2021 to +1.68 WPA (16th) in 2022, another four wins lost. The offense wasn’t up to snuff for half of 2021 then three games in the NLDS, in 2022 the pitching wasn’t up to snuff regressing to the tune of about 13 wins or so. The offense has been limiting the team’s ceiling this year again, but all told it’s been about a 50/50 split between pitching and offense “foiling” the Brewers post-pandemic, though they’ve still got the 8th most wins in MLB and the most wins in the NLC since 2021.
  24. Among starting pitchers since 2020 it is essentially between Corbin Burnes and Zack Wheeler for who has been the best... Burnes: 562 IP | 67 ERA- | 65 FIP- | 17.1 rWAR | 16.6 fWAR Wheeler: 568 IP | 71 ERA- | 66 FIP- | 16.6rWAR | 17.6 fWAR Among relievers over the same stretch Devin Williams is tops in WPA (+10.49), rWAR (7.0) and fWAR (6.1) thanks to 183 IP of 42 ERA- | 54 FIP- dominance, and this after we traded away the guy that from 2017-21 was tops in WPA (+14.22) and rWAR (11.1) among all relievers thanks to 316 IP of 58 ERA- | 63 FIP-. Brandon Woodruff has been a starting pitcher since 2019. Even with the missed time in there, his 539 IP make him one of only 55 pitchers with even 500 IP over that stretch. Among that sample his rankings are 70 ERA- (3rd) | 71 FIP- (3rd) | 16.2 rWAR (11th) | 13.9 fWAR (17th). Just crazy stuff all around, when you really stop to think about it.
