well work has a bit to do with it. i would say 55% work / 45% #leongate
remember, it was a HoF baseball player that stated: “Ninety percent of the game is half mental.”
maxbialystock wont lay it on the line and state what he would do if he were DD or Cora. he just chooses to pummel the player relentlessly. it's like the polar opposite of how he blindly/vociferously defended JF 2 seasons ago. he is very good at it tho. much credit given.
If the answer is Pearce (OPS .295), what exactly got accomplished here?
i'll give it a shot:
RF defense declines
CF defense declines
DH production declines
CF offensive production increases
3 declines / 1 increase = do not do
i'm glad BDR lived up to your prediction. i'm sad you dont want to get any positivity from this start. it was a fantastic 8ip and deserves a bit of praise.
