  1. while i disagree analytics shouldn’t be involved in the game, it has its uses, his point is valid. This rule is only needed due to the way analytics has changed the game.
  2. But does that mean people who don't agree with everything that is being said need to be told that they should read the room when they respond? Why can't some disagree with some aspects without being told their responses are wrong? Not the items they are discussing are wrong that is debate. It's the fact that people are telling others they should think like everyone else.
  3. That is standard protocol. Always try conservative treatment first. While we are getting good good at surgeries. They still aren't 100%. Plus there is always that very small chance if complications from the surgery itself.
  4. Yes, in general they did pitch more in the minors and did find out who could tolerate the workload. There were also fewer teams so fewer pitchers were needed. Many pitchers today would not make teams just because of the numbers.
  5. It appears so. Hopefully, they shut it down in time and it is just the muscle strain.
  6. I just don't have the energy to hate a person this much. I guess I'm too old.
  7. Last I checked most are fairly happy with the pitching coaches and program.
  8. Yes, the owner is responsible for the elbow issue.
  9. Ok. I didn't look just hypothesizing.
  10. Not from the latest research. The latest shows higher velo or throwing at max velo for longer. The change up is just the fastball motion with a different grip. The forkball needed to be really over the top and a "pull " down to get the rolling effect.
  11. Sometimes they come back throwing with more velo after UCL reconstruction. If it happens maybe it will be the case here. Haven't checked his velo at the MLB level. Was he trying to add velo in the MLB, I wonder.
  12. It appears that relievers were the belle of the ball at this deadline.
  13. Too true. But they know more about the players than I do so i them handle it.
  14. You can't develop them in the minors? If they didn't think they were ready for the MLB, they would be hurting their development.
  15. They could shut hom down from games and do side sessions.
  16. That's a new one. Although he is coming off an injury and hasnt looked particularly sharp so they are probably just protecting him.
  17. Not if they didn't think they were ready.
  18. We knew it would be a wasted year. Someone had to play since the milb players weren't ready.
