    Here's his Baseball Savant page https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/luis-gil-661563?stats=statcast-r-pitching-mlb And here's his percentiles. Great stuff, not great control. Expected BA against of. 208 which is 86th percentile.

    Seems like Yanks/Sox have been less averse to making trades with each other these past few years. Sox are looking for a starter and Yanks are looking for a first baseman. A Luis Gil for Casas trade would work for both teams.

    This is a good trade for the Sox IMO. They just landed a guy who has arguably the best stuff in baseball. Sure it's risky, but so is paying any pitcher these days.
  4. bkzwhitestrican
    That was quite painful

    We were playing great until you came back!

    Although no one here will admit it, I'm sure you'll all be rooting for the Yankees.

    This rivalry has felt pretty dead over the last few years
  9. bkzwhitestrican
    Nice win boys!

    Is anyone sure that Story is still a good player? In his 3 years with Boston he has a combined .681 OPS (.227/.287/.394) and he'll be 32 next season. If the opportunity presents itself I'd offload him for whatever you can get.

    Swearing yes, slurs no. How about making fun of player appearances? There are many references to Judge looking like a horse, or Naylor looking like Fat Mahomes, etc. I'm cool with it but not sure where it would fall now.

    Makes sense. Twins are a pretty boring team and their fan base is too courteous.
  13. bkzwhitestrican
    That's a pretty crazy stat. I wonder what is the record for least RBIs by someone with 20+ HRs
  14. bkzwhitestrican
    Yes you're missing the most important section of the website - the Yankees section. Nice site updates though. Looks like the Twins site which is one of the best out there.
  15. bkzwhitestrican
    Site looks good. The Sox though, not so much 😅

    Growing up in Brooklyn we used the word ******' quite often. It was just another word to rag on someone like *******, prick, etc. I guess because of that I'm desensitized to it and don't think of it as a homophobic word, just another swear word. But I came to realize the word can have a vastly different meaning to others and have not uttered it in public since. Duran hopefully has learned the same thing.
  17. bkzwhitestrican
    Yes

    Funnily enough both Volpe and Verdugo made great plays earlier in the game (Volpe laid out for a liner that would've scored a run, and Verdugo ran down a deep ball in Baltimore's massive left field in the 8th that helped keep the score close). It was very odd (and infuriating) to see them both flub a routine play consecutively with the game on the line. Maybe they bet on the O's?
  19. bkzwhitestrican
    Hopefully they're good at it. One of my friends has like a 50% win rate which I don't even know how that's possible. I don't think I've ever won once.
  20. bkzwhitestrican
    I don't think you get very good odds betting against a team winning the WS
  21. bkzwhitestrican
    Let's remember this next year too so we can make money betting against them
  22. bkzwhitestrican
    For you maybe
  23. bkzwhitestrican
    Still too early to say Jones won't pan out. Judge had similar problems every time he advanced a level in the minors. Jones did have a 2 HR and 7 RBI night a couple of days ago, so we'll see if he's starting to figure out this level.
  24. bkzwhitestrican
    Similar theme with the Yanks MLB squad, injuries are piling up in the minors. 3 of the Yankees top 5 prospects are on the shelf (Dominguez, Hampton, Pereira) and they would all be call up options right now. Ben Rice has come in to play first base and has looked promising. Caleb Durbin could have been called up to fill in one of the underperforming infield spots but he got hurt. Same with Beeter in the bullpen. The Yanks probably don't have the ammo to trade for a top pitcher or bat unless they're willing to deal Dominguez (which I doubt they'd do). But they do have a lot of talent in the lower minors that they could probably use to get bullpen help and a competent bat at a corner infield spot. That should be the minimum they need to get by (assuming Judge/ Soto/ Cole all stay healthy, which is not a given).
  25. bkzwhitestrican
    Still have half a season left and neither pitcher has thrown a ton of innings in a season before. I'd guess they don't finish within the top 5 by year end.
