Makes sense, given the lack of mask in the video.

Would be curious to see the rest of the team's stats in this situation. Read: "someone please look it up because I'm too lazy"

You're right. It's pretty plain. For his career: 1B: .776 OPS (104 AB) DH: .802 OPS (126 AB) LF: .748 OPS (377 AB) RF: .685 OPS (173 AB)

I think that was from late 2020 or early 2021. At the time I was actually on board with it. The offense had relied so incredibly heavily no the home run that it was feast-or-famine a lot of games. I interpreted his "fuck the home run" attitude as a "let's focus on good at-bats as a primary approach, and home runs will come." Not "don't hit home runs." You know - I was viewing it though a lens of common sense.

AV has an .800 OPS. His WAR is 0.6, but that's 100% because of his defense. I'm failing to see how he's a massive disappointment.

Yes.

Pretty much. He's giving us what any reasonable person could have expected out of him at this stage in his career.

You must apologize to all.

Pretty sure I disagree on at least 2 of those 5 (if not 3), at least if you're expecting to have some semblance of competency.

Pray tell - what positions are those?

Agree. Still - so many chances to win somehow, and they just manage to piss it all away every time.

(wrong thread)

Me too.

We can go down in fewer.

At least this saves the BP by shortening the game to 8 innings.

Nice to see Andrus cool and calm there.

Why does a 4-4 tie seem like an insurmountable lead?

RBI Double. The answer is no.

Elvis with a big AB here. Let's see if he's fitting in yet.

I wouldn't be surprised to see TLR using Hendriks in a loss. Just to show he's "new school"

I know - and I just wanted to pile on.

Why, just last series, we scored 4 runs.
