But it helps keep morale manageable during a very trying season. Remember, players are human beings, and that's part of managing a baseball team.

Did you see the context of the argument? Because what you're saying is the complete opposite of the point that I've been trying to make, which is that he needs to stop expanding the strike zone, or they will keep feeding him breaking and offspeed for balls. Please check the context of the posts first.

Let's see, Mr. I didn't say that-

Well I'm a lawyer by trade, as you know. But I started executing projects for NPO's, and working on dismounting financial funds and had to get independent accreditation. I'm not a CPA, but I'm certified to present NPO and private sector projects under several financial normatives here. I don't hate it, but I like lawyering better.

I also work accounting, Mr. Accountant. By unfortunate happenstance by the way.

There's an amount of money that goes towards miscellaneous expenditures that's not accounted for in our lux tax calculations.

To add to this point: Devers is getting less fastballs, more breaking balls and more offspeed pitches (percentage wise) in 2023 than at any other point in his career.

Trivia notes and questions (some of which may not be answerable)

Should've picked him off. -
You did say it would be very difficult, and I told you it wasn't going to be difficult at all. By the time they made the announcement, there were a lot of greased up palms already.

A's halfway gone from Oakland as legislature hurdle cleared. Hate to say I told ya so MVP.

Don't Feed The Troll.

But I like being a contrarian.

He can't even do that well.

What board? Enlighten me.

That's a hill I'm willing to die on.

Bro, they're babying him, stop being a primadonna protecting polyanna /sbf

What you all say is true and nice but......Wacha f***ing sucks.

This early in the season, a five-gam stretch in which he murdered the Yankees and Rockies, can positively skew the numbers. Over his mini-slump, he was striking out more, walking less, and barreling less balls. That stretch really helped his up-to-date numbers in both traditional stats and Statcast.
-
Fielding percentage sucks, but the overall point is correct.
-
You're taking what I was arguing completely out of context, but.....short answer, yes. There's no timer in baseball, your currency are outs. Every time you don't make an out, you are contributing both a baserunner (a possible run), and you're not wasting one of the 27 opportunities you have as a team to score runs. The other side of that coin is that the more you swing at bad pitches, the less strikes they'll throw. The idea is not for him to focus on walks, it's to stop expanding the zone so he actually gets pitches to hit, and he's been doing more of that lately.

the best, mvp78, the best!

Bro, we were poking fun about a semantics argument with Max the other day. Jesus Christ.

This is a sound premise though, I'll give you that.
-
Except he's not a 2B. Moving a lifelong SS to 2B doesn't guarantee GG defense at the position. The transition isn't as easy as you may thing. It just seems like fitting a square peg in a round hole type of move overall.

My bad, you're right. I'm too old for this.
