  1. Not surprising to find that Sean Hjelle is from Minnesota Also not surprising to find that the Mets are now 0/6 w/RiSP
  2. Wow! Winning run to scoring position and no GiDP possibility!!! Well now the GiDP is back in play with the IW.

  4. 2 runs on 3 hits thru 7 innings/21 outs 6 runs on 7 hits since (4 outs) oe: now 6
  5. Four of the next five games and six of the next nine are day games: Sat, Sun, Mon, Wed, Sat, Sun Night games Tuesday, Thursday, Friday
  6. Not really complaining, more like noting, that our last six HRs -- and seven of the previous nine during this three HRs x three games stretch -- have all been solo jobs.
  7. OK. Baby steps and all that.
  8. It seems like JDM's hits have been mostly outer-half/other-way stuff. That's the most impressive hit I've seen him turn on and pull during his short time here.
  9. Couple of nice two-strike swings, both from guys who had K'd in their previous AB: McNeal, Nido
  10. Scott finally came inside to get an out (the inning ending AB by Soler). He's been working almost everyone away tonight.
  11. When Bader goes into that side-stepping gait out in CF you pretty much know he's got the ball covered.
  12. Nimmo not only ran after the HBP but did so in the correct direction so that's a good sign.
  13. This Lamont Wade guy has raised his BA/OBA/SLG rates by 85 / 108 / 13 points over last season which itself was the best of his career and the only full season of his career. Hitting his stride at age 30
  14. Eh, we weren't coming back from one run anyway so this all is merely window dressing.
  15. So the starter McKenzie is listed at 6' 5" / 165 and in comes the reliever Gaddis at 6' 6" / 260 That barely seems possible.
  16. Guardians bunch their hits again while we're really good at spreading ours out ... and so it's tied.
  17. The reason you've never seen it before, Ronnie, is that the pitcher could take his sweet-ass time getting out to the mound and, until last year anyway, still be allowed to take his allotted eight warm-ups, and take them at any pace he wanted. That's why we had low-scoring 8-1/2 inning games running 3:10
  18. Shyeeeet, if you know you can get a GiDP on the next pitch I'd plunk a batter every time! Prior to that I was cursing him for putting a leadoff runner on just for pride purposes. But, 6 pitch inning so OK
  19. Edgy MD wrote: Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: It's a Bader Laser! A Harrisbomb! Ohhhh, Suzyn I think Sterling's tag on Harrison Bader homers was "I'm just wild about HARRY!" It was a natural for Sterling as it was a song popular when he was in High School. Not really (written 1921) but kinda close.
  20. Some days I take a Quick Look at the grid and say to myself, 'Do I really want to spend 45 minutes racking my brain trying to come up with an Oriole/Tiger?' And I answer 'No' and pull the ripcord.
  21. 2024 starter walk rates (not including game of Tues 5.21) - Severino: 4.0 BB/9, a 48% increase over his career avg of 2.7 - Quintana: 3.5, a 30% increase over career avg of 2.7 - Manaea: 4.1, a 64% increase (2.5) - Houser: 6.3, a 70% increase (3.7) All of those career rates were also pretty much in line with their rates from recent seasons (2022-23) so it's not like there was a trend line leading up towards higher walk rates for any of them. Combined that's 87 BBs in 177 IP for the four starters. Butto's rate has been right around 5.0 his whole career but that career also consists of 15 starts so a small sample size. Scott's is even smaller and with no history. Just two starts for Megill.
  22. =Centerfield post_id=156125 time=1716339822 user_id=65] Every day just enough to lose.
  23. The advertising patch on the Guardians' uni shoulder makes it look like they're sponsored by the Marlins.
