@shegone03 You are certainly one of the loudest critics that’s for sure. Baseball is so fun

@StocksNBaseball @shegone03 @SalMarinello @MLB And going to be honest, not sure what guys like Frye have to offer. If consistent bashing of the game, targeting of young players / people, and just being generally uninterested / unable to learn is useful, then I’m sorry I’m just happy to learn different things.

@JamesDynstyBase @shegone03 @SalMarinello @MLB I can give you several examples where they’ve gone too far believing in analytics as the absolute rule. Knee down technique without considering base runners in scoring position, swinging w/ max effort on every single pitch count etc.
English
I’m fascinated that the Top 4 Homerun hitters in @MLB all have fewer than 2 RBI’s per Homerun.
How is that even possible?
Byron Buxton has 15 HR’s and only 23 RBI’s which is mind boggling.
I guess the people in charge think solo HR’s are the best way to score runs.
I know that it isn’t very entertaining to real baseball fans!

@StocksNBaseball @shegone03 @SalMarinello @MLB I don’t really think most data guys are absolute.
Most of these guys in the analytics departments have watched / studied / played a ton of a baseball.
Almost all these prospect rankers use video, scouting reports, etc to evaluate.
You’re first sentence is the low minority

@MLBNetwork One of these guys manages team USA.
The other one is a former big leaguer with a pod that people actively listen to.
Just insane lists

DeRo and Eric Hosmer’s top 10 hitters in the game right now! 📊

@wOBAWanKenobi And Ohtani.
4 man race, although Mis hasn’t done it nearly as long as the other two.

The Miz is unreal. Should be a 2 man race for NL Cy Young between him & Skenes

@rossjensen I feel pretty good about being in a deep dynasty league just spamming picking up brewers players regardless of their numbers / rankings.

@LuigiScal @70sBaseball @shegone03 @MLB Yeah and a lot of the misinformation is by former ball players who don’t understand / don’t care to learn and bash something that they are incorrectly analyzing.
Ex- if i thought all carbs were bad for you and made you fat, I wouldn’t eat carbs. But it’s just not true. Same idea
English
@JamesDynstyBase @70sBaseball @shegone03 @MLB And Bill James proved ages ago that the additional PA's is more than offset by all the lost RBI opportunities.
That's the problem with analytics. It's not the data that is ruining baseball, it's the misuse of data by tunnel-visioned number lovers incapable of critical thinking.

@johnrussell_34 @EmeraldYard3 @goattalkLA @JoshCaronIsHim @rossjensen Good context! I need to be better at not interacting.
English
@JamesDynstyBase @EmeraldYard3 @goattalkLA @JoshCaronIsHim @rossjensen Emerald Yard is a burner. Don't even interact. Another faceless moron who thinks he knows ball. @rossjensen great list, look forward to it every month.

These prospect lists from 99% of people are rage bait for interactions and clicks. We have a NON DEBUT top 100 without Ryan Sloan 🤣

@BLocsports Let’s tell Mason Miller to throw less hard, great idea!
English
Who cares about strikes when shoulders and elbows are shredding apart. With the going rate of arm catastrophes there wont be any pitchers left to not care about strikes.
Brett Cook@brettccook
Who cares about strikes when you throw fuel
English
Old Head’s won’t say that Ohtani is good! He doesn’t play the field! He also strikes out sometimes!
Matt Stark@BLocsports
Geeks wont say that! They didn’t throw hard enough. Being an excellent competitor, Mix in command and consistency with some plus pitches regardless of the Velo /Spin Rate made this group SPECIAL!
English
@caseystevenson4 @BLocsports Being some of the best pitchers of all time also helps.

Baseball’s Greatest Moments@BBGreatMoments
Greatest rotation ever
English
@Cerk26 @BLocsports Not a single person on the planet with a brain would think this isn’t a top 5 rotation of all time.
(Also, these dogs won like 13 straight divisions and only won 1 WS).
English
@BLocsports Don't sleep on the mental side either (I know you're not). These dudes were also some of the toughest competitors to ever take the ball on the mound. Straight dogs, that all wanted the ball when it mattered most. That's something stats just can't tell.
English
@henr67712 @BLocsports Not a single person on the planet with a brain would think this isn’t a top 5 rotation of all time.
English
@BLocsports "Geeks" mostly care about what we call skills, or things a pitcher can control: strikeouts, walks, home runs, and to a certain degree hard hit balls. These guys were all great at those things
English
@BLocsports Everyone says this is one of the greatest rotation ever. Just making things up
English
@JMikeMLB @DrivelineBB His avg exit velo, hard hit %, LA sweet spot, and bat speed is some of the worst in baseball.
Google is free, i’d suggest doing the bare minimum. Happy to sit down and talk to help us both learn.
English
But he probably has great EV and LA numbers in the cages according to the @DrivelineBB coaches!

@schwarbombz I would do anything for Bryce Harper.
Honestly Turner and JT too.
New fans like you forget how good JT was.

@rossjensen does a ton for the industry and provided non stop free content / advice along with his sites / tools.
I don’t agree with him on Sloan, but he’s not a rage bait clicks guy. One of the best in the business and is consistently right, especially the young young pop ups
