  1. Has he shown anything really this year to make us think that?
  2. At this point, while I obviously didn't like CC leaving for the Cubs, I don't even care anymore. I think this team is different because of Murph's personality, and regardless of what you think about bullpen management or anything else, he was a great choice to take an incredibly young team and drive them to success.
  3. Agreed, unless he's getting penalized for the errors (I'm ignorant on how DRS is calculated). He absolutely is a better defensive shortstop than that.
  4. It did seem like a quick hook for someone who had been dominating and still had a low pitch count.
  5. I thought you were talking about getting a 3B though, maybe I misinterpreted what you wrote.
  6. ...and now he's on the IL.
  7. I'm just saying the genesis of it as a nickname isn't completely out of the blue. Why is anyone tagged with a given nickname.
  8. Because that's his legal first name?
  9. Ok, I grabbed the wrong article, but I just searched for the text verbatim and found an article that had that exact text. I didn't bother looking for others that may all be sharing the same source content. The point is you posted and the bulk of your post was just copying and pasting content from somewhere else without indication where you got it. It's difficult sometimes to know when you're posting original thoughts and when you're just functioning as a news aggregator plopping in some relevant article.
  10. Don't just copy articles without citation. This is from https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/rangers-make-final-bid-at-playoff-run-with-veteran-reinforcement/ar-AA1IN4z7
  11. Sorry, by we I don't mean the writers at all, I mean the collective forum. There's this residual assumption based on very real past struggles that the weak spot is the offense. "Sure, we have a surplus of pitching and our defense is awesome, but if we could only fix our hitting, we'd have something." Bottom line is if you take out the opening Yankees series, this team has been darn good, and if you start even later, they're amazing. It's a really, really good team, and they're scoring runs too.
  12. Relevant stats via McCalvy: since Frelick moved to leadoff, Milwaukee is an MLB-best 20-7 while leading the Majors in runs per game (5.85) and on-base percentage (.351) and ranking second in average (.282). We need to stop acting like the offense is holding this team down.
  13. Yeah, if you throw middle-middle FBs, they will get crushed regardless of whether they're 100mph or not.
  14. Imagine being the hitter: IIRC, the previous high for a slider (Miz and someone else?) was something like 94 or 96. He blew that away. Dugouts were just laughing at how ridiculous it was. Passan used it as his memorable moment: "Jacob Misiorowski threw a 98.1 mph slider at the All-Star Game on Tuesday night. Both dugouts filled with laughter at the preposterousness of it. Misiorowski's teammate with the Milwaukee Brewers, Trevor Megill, summed up the pitch with three simple words: "Oh my god." Of all people, he should have understood that the rookie right-hander was capable of such things, but then Misiorowski's capacity to amaze and entertain is boundless. The 23-year-old rookie was the unexpected story of All-Star week, the center of attention in a game featuring Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. He has started five games and thrown 25.2 innings in the major leagues. No player had ever been named an All-Star with such little experience. And yet Misiorowski's eighth inning -- 18 pitches, nine fastballs over 100 mph with the hardest at 102.3, one hit allowed to Aranda, no runs -- made Skenes' stuff look tame by comparison. Misiorowski didn't just look good. He looked every bit an All-Star."
