https://www.truebluela.com/2016/6/15/11951878/yordan-alvarez-contract-dodgers-cuba-international-signing-period Interesting read. Yordan was the...
The fact that there was a question on his power is fascinating. I mean, he was a teenager, and he’s probably gotten bigger, but the guy is...
I don't know how the advanced stats treat him, but his combination of size and that cannon allow him to make some pretty spectacular plays that no...
The Evan Gattis trade strikes back.
Alvarez apparently went down the line at 28.6 ft / sec on that run. That's what Altuve averages (and faster than Derek Fisher and George Springer).
This aged.... poorly.
We just wrapped the 6th inning, so 18 outs have been recorded. 14 have been by strikeout. Another one on batter's intereference, and one via sac...
Seriously. Not a good day for the WHIP so far. Needs to get 2 more clean innings and hope the team hangs on for the W.
Only reason to do it would be to get him time around JV, Cole, and Greinke plus Strom.
The year he won the MVP but not the silver slugger, Derrek Lee won it at 1B. That was a monster year for Lee - 50 doubles, 46 homers, while...
JD Davis has put together a nice season. His OPS is currently sitting at .899. He’s hitting .387 in the last 30 days — 2nd only to Altuve in the...
Not sure why bother using Smith, other than testing how his arm responds on back to back outings.
I’m surprised Bergman didn’t dig for 3 on his double. He could’ve had knocked out the hardest part of the cycle and he already had a homer.
Name change to Hakeem incoming.
Apparently 80% of balls with that exit velocity / launch angle are home runs. It was 103+ MPH off the bat per the broadcast.
Debating whether the World Series champion is deserving is a straw man - whoever wins ran the gauntlet, they deserve it. It still takes some cards...
I never said the Mariners would win the World Series. But they were a bad team capable of beating other bad / mediocre teams. A good team -- which...
Exactlt. Just look at the Mariners -- 20 games under .500 now after starting the year 13-2 (sure, they traded Encarnacion and Bruce.. but...
Yep - that was one of the worst games they've played in awhile... and a bit of flukish bad shift luck.
... the reigning player of the month is still on a tear and is hitting 7th. This lineup is nuts.
