Jason Castro seems to be bounced around these parts every other season or something like that. His BBs and SOs seem way out of whack this season, albeit in playing limited time.
Ah, I see where you where going with the over/under now. It was a seed, just right at somebody. Are there really over/unders on exit velocity outcome? I know there are more in game bets these days, but I just assumed it'd be more along the lines of hit/out.
Torkelson at bat, runners on 1st & 2nd, hit & run, and he lines one to the 1Bdude who picks it cleanly, runs over to 1B and then tosses down to 2B for a triple play.
I certainly don’t know this for a fact, it’s just uneducated opinion. And granted, there weren’t a whole lot of 9-3s to begin with, so maybe the baseline isn’t that strong to begin with. But I think one of the byproducts of the infield shift with someone in short right field is that the right fielder gets to play deeper and removes any chance whatsoever of getting a slow runner at first.
I thought Baez for 5 years would’ve been better dollar for dollar than Correa for 10 to 12. The Baez contract would’ve allowed for opportunity cost to be spent elsewhere on the roster. Baez has fallen off of a cliff and Correa got a much more palatable contract than expected. So, yeah, what the hell do I know?
