  1. Most of what you're seeing there is value relative to position. Vaughn gets dinged something like 20 runs just being a 1st baseman relative to a catcher. And catchers get a massive positional bonus on the other end. I'm not sure if FGs publishes their positional value calculations but it's certainly pretty close to the traditional defensive spectrum with 1B and DH heavily penalized and CF, SS and C heavily rewarded. This is dated but is a good explanation. I think the values are much more extreme now.
  2. The two elite defenders that were already on the team are hurt. Go figure.
  3. Bro literally my first day of offseason BP frosh year of DIII the coach was like "you're never gonna hit for any power with that load". You watch a lot of other teams and they have guys selling out with huge leg kicks and loads and here our guys are looking to slap a grounder into the hole opposite way.
  4. I predict cannon will get hurt if they let him wear this.
  5. Vaughn taking an inside fastball the other way for a soft lineout is everything wrong with him. Pull the ball, elevate the ball, deposit that pitch into the bleachers. This is how it's done.
