  1. Okay. I shouldn't have used "clutchness" because RE24 accounts for all 24 of the base/out possibilities, even when runners aren't in scoring position, or even on base. But still: two batters each go one for two, tripling and striking out. All plate appearances are with two outs. All plate appearances are with the bases empty except one of the triples, which occurs with the bases loaded. The batter that tripled with the bases loaded and two outs has a higher RE24 than the other batter, who tripled with the bases empty and two outs. Both batters did the same thing but their RE24's aren't the same.
  2. So is clutch hitting. A batter who didn't get a hit in a so-called clutch situation didn't get a clutch hit.
  3. Wouldn't you have to believe that clutch hitting is a skill in order to believe that RE24 measures a skill?
  4. But does RE24 measure a skill? Or randomness? Luck?
  5. It's a lot less malignant than swinging a golf club in a crowded locker room. Or shooting bleach from a water gun at reporters. In the locker room.
  6. I don't see what the big deal is about Lopez throwing his glove in the stands. How is that any different from a player wrecking a watercooler in frustration or smashing his bat against the tunnel wall?
  7. Lopez wqs an All-Star in 2022.

  10. =Centerfield post_id=157038 time=1716999140 user_id=65] The Mets are now 20th in runs scored. 22nd in OPS. On the pitching side, they are 16th in team ERA, and 23rd in WHIP. So in a nutshell, the games are no fun because we don't score runs, and our hitting isn't good enough to suggest that we should be scoring more runs. On the other hand, our pitching gives up an average number of runs, but there's tons of baserunners, so each inning we're afraid the other team will get that one big hit that will put the game out of reach for our anemic offense. Good times.
  11. Edgy MD wrote: I didn't say I preferred one over the other. This is silly. Of course you did. You literally wrote that you thought a voodoo shrine was needed. You literally wrote that it would take Ernie Banks in his prime to make a difference. "Of course you did" ??? No I didn't. I happened to be the sequence in which I wrote them but had nothing to do with, nor did I use the word "prefer"., nor did I mean to imply preference. That was your interpretation. Later j Just ignore him. You'll never get him to concede anything. You'll only get three pages of ambiguous goal-post moving bullshit and absurd rationalization that everybody will have stopped reading after the third post. Of course you're right on this exchange. You never said what he claims you said.
  12. =MFS62 post_id=157041 time=1717000929 user_id=60] Who would you suggest?
  13. =Gwreck post_id=157003 time=1716953240 user_id=56] When do the Mets hit rock bottom? Are we there yet or are there still even worse ways to lose coming? Asking for a friend/all of us.
  14. ... attacking one ... but infecting all....
  15. Losing is a disease ... as contagious as Bubonic Plague.....
  16. • The purple on the hat's button, the jersey and the piping of the white pants is a reference to the 7 Line. Now that I know what the purple is for, I mean symbolizes, the City Connect uniforms are so much more nicer to look at. /rollseyes
  17. Lindor and Alonso are supposed to be the team's best players. When their combined OBP is under. 300, the team is gonna be in huge trouble no matter where in the lineup they bat.
  18. Losing is a disease ... as contagious as polio.
  19. Losing is a disease ... as contagious as syphilis.
  20. =Cowtipper post_id=156426 time=1716599559 user_id=166] The crumble of Garrett is coming and it won't be good.
  21. It's "just 5 innings " but in those 5 innings, the starter might face 20 batters. Couldn't that be more impactful than a batter's four or five plate appearances?
  22. Now he said cock. It's a cockfest.
  23. He said cock again. lol.
