Bob Sacamano Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) 14 minutes ago, Sports Guy said: A save is also when a pitcher comes into the game and the on deck hitter represents the tying or go ahead run. It doesn’t have to be a 3 run lead for that to be the case. It can be a 4 run lead. If I had said that, you would be right it would be moronic. But since I didn’t say that, the only moron is yourself for a) not knowing all the rules and b) not comprehending and reading things my 6 y/o can understand. That's not what I referred to as moronic in my post. This is: "Straight up moronic to say a guy who pitches the 9th isn’t a high leverage pitcher and can’t pitch any other high leverage spot." Talk about not comprehending or understanding lmao another L for O's Hangout! Edited January 15 by Bob Sacamano 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because you were planning on saving Michael Kopech for situations that happen maybe once in a season, so that is why everyone should have known you were talking about obscure corners of a rule, and not the part that happens 99.9% of the time. Please show me how many 4 and greater run saves were gotten last year to prove that it actually worth pretending it is valid or GTFOH with this waste of space. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep..and the point was that closers are often not in high leverage situations and a save that is 3 runs or more isn’t high leverage. The or more part is largely irrelevant but it’s still the case.
