    including six strikeouts in his last 12 at-bats. .......all the possibilities are open still. Some point in New York is the goal. Like I said, I gotta reconvene with the boys and talk it out.” That seems impossible. He might be worse now than before he got hurt. Hopefully I am pleasantly surprised, but this doesn't feel or sound good.

    The biggest mistakes that rotisserie players make is picking up guys in a hot streak, but don't have the history to support it. If a player is usually a .650 hitter, then come October, he will likely be a .650 hitter, regardless of whether or not he had a good week in August. Younger players can develop, but their supporting metrics will still rise to the top. 6 HRs in July, with a 35/4 K/W, will still like yield weak results.

    They never veered from their plan. Mayer played every game at 2B, Story played every game at SS, and Durbin played every game at 3B. That doesn't mean guys don't move if someone gets hurt, or if someone gets traded. But the plan is the plan.

    That's exactly what I said. You can probably figure out your opponents rotations two weeks out. Figure out the worst L/L matchups in advance and give them that day off. Figure out your own lefty/righty GB/FB pitchers and arrange your infield accordingly.
  5. JoeBrady
    I agree on all counts. It feels like it's been a while since we had some fiery leadership.
  6. JoeBrady
    Don't the pitch calls come from the dugout?
  7. JoeBrady
    I was told that the RS were not hitting in the first two games. There is no such thing as a SSS if 2 games is the stipulation.

    5.5 rpg over the past two games. B-Ref doesn't list league leaders over two-day samples, but 5.5 rpg is a lot.
  9. JoeBrady
    Over the past 7 days, 3rd in OPS. Over the past 14 days, 1st in OPS. Over the past 28 days, 1st in OPS.

    That doesn't mean he controls where the pitch goes. If the pitcher throws it three inches outside, there is not a single thing in the world he can do about it. Unless you think he intentionally told the pitcher to throw balls instead of strikes.

    It's the ghost of every manager. I think a good manager should be able to tell you of a day off two weeks in advance.
  12. JoeBrady
    And therein lies the problem. Everyone gets hot and cold. And they general have decent rides in one of the other. With Duran, it's hard to know if he'll have 5 HRs in two weeks, or 5 hits in two weeks.
  13. JoeBrady
    He's a UIF. Guys that are UIF's play wherever there is a need. Neither the RS nor Mil necessarily likes him at any position.
  14. JoeBrady
    I thought he was doing both this year?

    MLB-R this morning- He leads the league with 17 RBI in the ninth inning or later (h/t ESPN Insights on X). Obviously there is some luck to that, but still pretty impressive.
  16. JoeBrady
    LMK when they open up the bidding. I want a piece of this.

    Even up 4, I<'m> still <not> getting up to cash my ticket.

    -1.5 to the NYY and -5 to TB. It's such a funny game. We got hot, and I thought we had a chance to catch both, maybe. Then we lost 5 in a row and got down 10 games behind the Rays and 6 behind the Yankees, and I was figuring 'okay, things went sideways, but we're still a solid bet to be in the playoffs'. Which still would've been fine, but now we are back in it. But must focus on nothing but tomorrow night's game.
  19. JoeBrady
    Then, as a catcher, I object to Wong walking people.
  20. JoeBrady
    I just checked July + August, and it certainly does seem possible. We had a Py W/L of .710 over those two months, against an actual record of .745. So even if we were playing over our heads, we were still playing really well.
  21. JoeBrady
    I don't even think Wong should be pitching.
  22. JoeBrady
    Yup, I don't remember who said it, but someone asked "Are you like Fats Domino?" and the response was "No, I'm more like a Chubby Checker". And the Beatles were named after the Crickets, which was incredibly audacious at the time.
  23. JoeBrady
    It's fascinating to watch. Everyone in BB gets hot and cold. But for the RSN, when someone like Money gets hot, the fans think he's great, until he's not. Now it's Gaspar's time.
  24. JoeBrady
    The Caleb Williams era. Wake me up when it counts.
  25. JoeBrady
    Have not checked, but that sounds impossible.
