  1. I thought we already settled that we are a middling team in the second-worst division in baseball. Big difference.
  2. Sounds reasonable to me. I'm impressed he held it in as long as he did. Do you have a link to his GoFundMe?
  3. Last year was a pretty big step forward for him, and in two months this season he has built on that. But it wasn't long ago he bombed at AA at age 24. He looks good now, but I need to see a bit more before I see him as more than organizational filler.
  4. A .660 OPS projection is pretty bad. The same methodology that gave you that projection for Fedko projects .730 for Outman. I'm not saying Fedko will also underperform his projection by .190 like Outman has done, but I'm also not going to say he won't. If I had to chose between the two, it would be Outman. (And I'm from CT. Fedko is a UConn guy.)
  5. I remember one who turned into a HoF hitter after returning from that. The first time I ever heard of a hamate bone was when Ortiz missed time with it.
  6. The lulu and the cake reached But might Byron has popped out
  7. I'm not watching, just listening and following. The radio guys made it sound like it was an obvious error, but MLB.com has this: Is that going t o get changed?
  8. "There are no good options - just pick names out of a hat" was probably in the report.
  9. You left out that Arcia kid we called up today. 😎
  10. Nah, he didn't look playable yesterday, either. Seems like 2023.
  11. I bet you were hoping we wouldn't remember you said this, with the rain delay and all. 😎
  12. Yeah, I remember looking at the bullpen pitch chart and wondering who would be available. That was before I say SWR was moving to the pen, but if he's done for the night we better hope that rain comes back.
  13. Three walks to the #8 hitter today. Is it the .198 batting average or the .525 OPS that has them so intimidated?
  14. They say misery loves company. I enjoyed the game thread, even if the MLB.TV free weekend is feeling overpriced right now.
  15. I thought he finished that story with they lost the next six games. But it still might be worth a try.
  16. I thought it was the play where he was rounding third and got a late stop sign. It might have been just before that play.
  17. I prefer the NFHS definition of obstruction (runner impeded by a fielder not in possession of the ball and not making an initial play on a batted ball. I prefer the OBR penalty. Differences: This would not be obstruction because the runner was not impeded until well after Royce had the ball. Another difference is if the throw takes the fielder into the path of the, that is not obstruction in OBR. I prefer NFHS, which puts the onus on the defense to make a throw that doesn't cause a fielder to obstruct a runner. Now for the penalty - NFHS awards a minimum of one base for any obstruction. OBR has Type I and Type II. Type I is when the play is being made on the obstructed runner - minimum of one base. (I'm OK with the award in last night's game, just not crazy about the rule calling that obstruction.) For type II, at the end of the playing action the umpire will "impose such penalties, if any, as in his judgment will nullify the act of obstruction." Picture the batter rounding first on a base hit and tripping over the first baseman. The cutoff man sees that and throws to first to get him. Type II (not being played on when obstructed). Award first. (NFHS would award 2nd.)
  18. Either that is 476,872 or Josh has to drop down a couple of spots.
