  1. Or maybe Hinch was only using him in the 9th when he was throwing well or when there was a good match up. So, maybe he did do slightly better in the 9th, but was it the chicken or the egg?
  2. Why would a pitcher only be able to pitch the 9th? That makes no sense. I could see when he had the closer role, he might let up in a non-save situation. But he's not the closer now, so what is your explanation?
  3. Sanders has often talked about tariffs, so those are his fault too.
  4. I don't think that is Harris's or Hinch's style. They seem to prepare for the long-term and don't make moves to send messages. They will try to put the best baseball team on the field every night for baseball reasons.
  5. He didn't say the misinformation has the same impact as the right. It does exist and I can't believe you have not seen it. I see it all the time and it's frustrating. I frequently have to block accounts on social media.
  6. This has been going on for years and it does not help our cause.
  7. Didn't somebody lose their podcast gig for saying something like that? 😉
  8. I have seen a lot of Valdez the last few years because I often have him on my fantasy team. He is a good pitcher, but when things go wrong, he doesn't react well and has games like this.
  9. Thanks Bert. I am very happy to hear that he is doing well.
  10. According to FanGraphs, Witt has saved 3 runs defensively whereas Henderson has given up -1 run. That's 0.4 WAR right there. The offensive numbers are going to accumulate over the course of the season even someone is not a great hitter and WAR is also going accumulate over the season. Fielding doesn't accumulate the same way. Replacement level for defense is average, so an average shortstop will always add 0 WAR with his fielding whether he plays 1 game or 162 games. The result is that a really good or bad fielder is going to have his WAR distorted in a really small sample size.
  11. So, when the team does well, it's Harris's team, but when they lose, it is Avila's team! 😃
  12. The 0.7 difference is probably all fielding and fielding stats don't work in a small sample.
  13. Fans only regard him as an above average first baseman when he's hitting! People used to do the same thing when Cabrera when he played third.
  14. At the end of 2024, everybody was saying the Tigers had perfect team chemistry and they all wanted to win so bad. Now, all of the sudden, nobody cares and they need someone to shake things up. What came first, the chicken or the egg?
  15. Is he the new Tony Clark?
