dammit.

Oh, so close.

What the hell is Slater doing on third?😁

When Pham left the Sox he was one of the team’s best hitters. .266 BA, .710 OPS. This year he’s doing poorly, .230/.601 but still better than players such as Brooks Baldwin and sadly, Don Luis. When Fedde left the Sox he was the team’s best performing pitcher. 7-4 with a 3.11 ERA, 4.6 WAR. He may not regain that form, but if we’re talking potential value… Last year with the Dodgers Kopech went 4-0 with a 1.13 ERA. This year he’s pitched 7 innings with an ERA of 0. Currently he’s on the IL with right knee inflammation. Kopech still should be an ace. For them, we got Vargas. I hope Vargas matures into a top player, but so far the trade still looks lopsided to me.

OK. I think this math is correct, and answers your question. From Baseball Savant. This year: 239 batted balls 22% were opposite field = 53 12 were hits 12/53 = .226 So when he hits the ball to the opposite field, he has a .226 BA.

So I did the math and chatgpt is wrong. 12 for 152 is .079. Don't trust the AI.

Fedde, Kopech, and Pham for Vargas? I'm still scratching my head.

"Miguel Vargas’s batting average on balls hit to the opposite field in MLB is .125 (12 hits in 152 at‑bats)." I asked the chatgpt and its source was MLB.com

I've only seen attendance like this at Fenway.

The haves and have nots is a problem as old as the hills. But these contracts make the yankees look downright frugal.

The execution hasn't been great either.

Well, it was a matter of time...

These Dodger contract$$ are insane

Stop calling for the change already

With this guy, if it's low, let it go.

Raspberry!

At this point we'll become alcoholics...

He stopped making his pitches. Hanging curves, and an embarrassing change up.

Yikes. He started so well. Now he's shitting the bed.

How did Vargas not beat that out? The throw to second was soft for the force. Looked liked he was stumbling the whole way to first. UGH!

Eisert ineffective. Too bad. Vasil did so well.

That was poor from Sosa.

Let's get some run support!

Damn their defense. 3 good ABs with 2 outs though.

Symbol of the franchise? Maybe they get rid of him and things turn around?
