.060 xBA on that one from Baseball Savant Which is wild because Nootbaar got a good jump and took a great route
"Well, I think that they look at it as a longshot, uphill battle, but that's not going to deter them from trying," Zangrilli said. Sounds like you may as well get that champagne out to celebrate, that extension seems wrapped up
Recently saw a story where she was trying to buy a condo that Babe Ruth used to live in but the co-op rejected her bc of the paparazzi and my first thought was fuck those assholes bc we need her there for recruiting.
The vibes are not good right now. That’s more booing the front office. We supposedly dumped salary this offseason so we could make big moves at the deadline. Then we did jack shit and our starting pitcher we acquired went on the IL this morning and the guy who gave up the lead was our best reliever acquisition.
Always cracks me up when Buhner is on the Mariner call; stoked that Arozarena got drilled because it was an 0-2 count
Devin Williams cannot pitch in a high leverage situation until he strings together a bunch of clean outings
He missed a little time, but he’s only got three less starts than Skubal so idk how he wouldn’t have qualifying stats
If fan graphs is right he’s at 103 and the cut off is 114. Resetting the sliders to 100 IP here’s the WAR totals. Skubal has 1 less walk, 76 more Ks, and 38 more IP.
He pitched 8 tonight and got to 111 at least is what I saw. Deep year in the AL and he’s not a heavy K guy like Skubal, who is just a monster.
I suppose the odds say that it is likely that someone will eventually beat the Brewers - but man I just don't see how it's possible
