  1. I learned about dependent and independent variables in middle school science. I guess a lot of people missed out on that lesson.
  2. I'm shocked to hear Twitter is full of dumb comments.
  3. There is a much bigger sample size which shows he's worse in the 9th than the 7th and 8th.
  4. I also had the wrong stats where it was sorted by primary position of 3rd base and not actual production at 3rd base. It's actually 17th in WAR and 24th in wRC+ as a 3B. Luckily for us I heard somewhere that that is backwards looking and past performance is not indicative of future results.
  5. Tigers are 8th in WAR at 3B and 10th in wRC+.
  6. You mean a package based around Tyler Mattison wouldn't have gotten it done?
  7. Tried to tell people that when they thought a package based around garbage would get it done.
  8. Fundamental misunderstanding of how odds work.
  9. Do you think any pitching additions will result in our pitching staff giving up one full run a game less over the course of a season?
  10. The booms and busts have been so extreme this year.
  11. I trust this years offense to win those games.
  12. You're definitely misremembering something. Verlander and Ichiro were both on the AL team.
  13. 125 is good, but not too good that there's no reason to keep you at the level. Franyerber is not really the level of prospect that jumps levels every year, he's more of a spend a whole year at one level kind of prospect. At least until he forces his way up
  14. Another article that is cited in that detailing Greene's new approach at the plate this year. From few weeks prior but I had not read it yet. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/riley-greenes-strikeouts-arent-a-dealbreaker/
  15. I don't think Hinch is looking at Olsen and Flaherty as unreliable pitching.
  16. Thinking it could be possible to get Miller without giving up a top 100 prospect is some of the most delusional trade talk I've ever seen. Miller would net a top 100 prospect if he was a two month rental, and you're getting him for 5 postseason runs. You'd have to absolutely blow the As away with an offer, they have no desire to move him now.
  17. That package for Miller? Do you guys not realize Miller has a 14+ K/9 and has four more years of control right?
  18. Miller will require at least two of Clark, McGonigle, Rainer, and Briceno, plus some extra.
  19. Melton with 33Ks and 6 BB in 20.2 IP in AAA. One to keep an eye for an end of season bullpen tryout.
  20. I'm old enough to remember when Riley Greene was overrated and should've been dropped to 7th in the order.
  21. 178 wRC+ and 0.9 WAR in 82 PAs is MVP level, not borderline all-star. Unfortunately it's not at all sustainable.
  22. I mean, it's clearly Witt.
  23. Skenes is a money maker, which is far more valuable than maybe winning more in the future for the Pirates owner. They're not trading him until he's got a year left.
  24. He was slumping in the couple weeks before that one game, so it's really been going on five weeks.
  25. Rays announcer was absolutely flabbergasted that that was the best the Tigers could do defensively.
