  1. I can't believe there are people that would have this as a serious take. The at bat is meaningless, the Cardinals knew it and so did the Brewers. It's already a clown show. What if the Brewers sent their guys up to the plate and just told them not to swing at all? You don't have to swing the bat in baseball. The guy that tweeted this was either fishing for engagement (and he won the jackpot on that) or he is a gambler that overinflates every single opportunity for a chance to have a dopamine rush for one one-millionth of a second. And when a gambler loses it's never their fault, it's the player's fault.
  2. Chourio should have just turned his helmet around like Larry Walker did in the ASG vs Randy Johnson. Edit: it was John Kruk, dunno what my old brain was thinking. Edit #2: I was right the first time. I quit.
  3. Cardinals figured out where to line up on defense, booo
  4. 2,261-2,261-1 record since joining the NL. Of course there's a tie in there. Every bit of great historical data has to have some minutia baked in. Tie game due to a rainout in Cincinnati on opening day, April 3, 2000.
  5. ESPN published an article recently by Bradford Doolittle that, among other things, touched on the differences between both bWAR and fWAR and I thought it really clarified for me why the two exist and why they both matter. It's worth a read. But this snippet is part of what made me think of it. TLDR: FanGraphs is trying more to evaluate a player's projectable skill level while BRef is more results based or what already happened. Both have their perspectives and by contrasting them you can kind of come up with a number in the middle that is fairly accurate (if that's what you're interested in doing).
  6. After the first at bat of the game he becomes the 9 hitter. Feel better?
  7. It sure didn't stop them though, they've entered full temper tantrum.
  8. Why does it seem like every home run or near home run is a wall scraper? Like can you guys please hit it like 10 feet further?
  9. I 100% understand what you're saying but the review was not challenging whether Mitchell touched the plate, it was to overturn an out call. Objectively, the umpire could tell the NY crew that is reviewing the play that he saw Mitchell touch the plate but in reality umpires have gotten that wrong too (see CB Bucknor's call on Jake Bauers not touching first base). Yes they review all aspects of the play but I believe at that point it doesn't matter anymore what the umpire saw, only the original call on the field matters which way a non-definitive replay review defaults to.
  10. I suppose it comes down to, if we trust what the umpire saw then why is there a replay review? Don't get me wrong though, I had the same thought at the time lol
  11. Rickie Weeks obviously
  12. I was just going to say, looks like Wild Bill is rocking a mild Craig Counsell batting style and if he's going to bash homers doing it please continue!
  13. Ohhhh, it makes sense now.
  14. I think it comes from the days when the player's names weren't on the back of the jersey. So the number was elevated for certain guys and real die hards just know the numbers for every guy. I'm not so great about remembering player's numbers now, guys need to stick around a while for the number to find a place in to the dark and dusty, cobwebbed attic that is my memory.
