Here's the inverse of this list:
min: 40 PA, < .190 AVG in spring training
wRC+ added for those hating on AVG and to piss off the other half of the group!
*most* of those who struggled in ST, have continued to struggle
Vlad Sedler@RotoGut
Almost everyone who crushed it 🔥⚾️ in spring training has sucked since Opening Day. How about next year we don't get swept up by ADP helium so easily

@Nate_Tice Call me old fashioned but I’d kind of prefer he just built a good offensive line
English
the Chargers offense has a chance to be so, so, so, so fun. Was hoping for a little more of a bump with their guard play, but McDaniel is going to be such an upgrade in every aspect for this offense. He even has shown the ability to craft an offense that can overcome OL deficiencies and injuries.
Alex Insdorf@alexinsdorf99
Chargers OC Mike McDaniel on building an offense for Justin Herbert: "When I got here, my first task that I bestowed upon myself is I watched every pass play that he's ever had in the National Football League." "His expectations are the highest for himself...I'd say that we're looking to master and be elite at everything we do. And being able to own the position in a new way, for him to own the position in a way he never has." "For it to be obvious to everyone around that he's playing the best football of his career."

@angelo_fantasy Travis Kelce had 0 yards as a rookie. Tony Gonzalez had 368. Witten had 347. Antonio Gates had 389. Using rookie receiving yards to evaluate tight ends is kind of lazy
English
Max Klare comes into a Tight End room where you have…
- Tyler Higbee who is turning 34 this season
- Colby Parkinson has never had 500 yards in a season & is a free agent in 2027
- Terrance Ferguson who was a Tier D prospect last year in my database & had under 250 yards as a Rookie.
Klare graded higher than Kenyon Sadiq for me.

@AlZeidenfeld This time of year people tend to forget that he hasn’t had a fully healthy season since 2016 and he’s 34 years old

Has anyone ever considered that maybe Mike Trout just likes living in SoCal and doesn’t want uproot his family?
B/R Walk-Off@BRWalkoff
It's finally time... Mike Trout NEEDS to request a trade from the Angels 🙃 (w/ @Erica_Jones)

This is just as bad if not worse as anything prime Harden was doing. Shameless foul baiting.
BrickCenter@BrickCenter_
SGA is flopping on EVERY PLAY 😭

@Ihartitz So you’re saying I should ask for a 1st and a 2nd for him?
English
Browns are probably going to start Deshaun Watson. League's worst QB by pretty much any statistic with Cleveland from 2022-2024. Arm strength looked shot in 2024 coming off shoulder injuries. Tore his Achilles in October, 2024 *AND AGAIN* in January, 2025. Turns 31 in September.

The CFP has so many other issues that need solving before they should even potentially consider adding more teams to it.

"I think that college football should be run by people who like college football. And every decision, every idea I've seen about playoff expansion seems like it's come from people who don't like college football, don't know why we like it... A 24-team playoff would be a disgrace." - Kevin Clark
English
@Filmwatchers1 National announcers may not know crap about the teams they are doing, but local announcers are absolutely awful. Imagine tuning into a game between 2 of your team’s rivals because your team isn’t playing and the announcers are screaming about how bad the refs are all game
English
It’d be cool if there was a designated broadcast crew for each of the 32 NFL teams and the viewer could pick which team’s broadcast to watch.
A team-specific crew would have a lot more and higher quality information about their team since they watch them each week.

@AdamHarstad @a_michel42 @SmolaDS But also in the low touch RBs were guys like Kerryon Johnson, who averaged 26 touches per game his last year in college, got hurt as a rookie, and really never recovered
English
@AdamHarstad @a_michel42 @SmolaDS Again, without knowing the variables, raw data means very little to me. For instance, 2 of those injuries to high touch RBs were CMC, who had logged 729 and 798 touches the previous 2 seasons
English
Klint Kubiak deployed a committee backfield in Seattle last season and has talked about using 2 backs in Vegas this year.
I'm not buying it.
In his previous 2 stops, Kubiak ...
Fed Dalvin Cook 19.2 carries and 3.8 targets per game.
Fed Alvin Kamara 16.3 carries and 6.4 targets per game.
Ashton Jeanty will get fed.
English
@AdamHarstad @a_michel42 @SmolaDS RB size, speed, ability to avoid big hits, hits taken per carry, career carries as well as carries over the previous few games, diet, rest and rehab habits, stretching, past injury history, muscle mass, posture, sleep position, and hydration just to name a few
English
@AdamHarstad @a_michel42 @SmolaDS As far as high touch RBs go, like everything in football, there are so many variables that it would take a full on research project with peer reviewed papers to really come up with an answer, and there are more important things to worry about
English
@a_michel42 @SmolaDS I’d argue that depends on the player, his lifestyle, habits, diet, etc., which are all impossible to predict. But what is true is football is a contact sport and the more plays you play, the more likely you are to get hurt. No one gets hurt watching from the sidelines
English
@JusttheFoosball @SmolaDS Actually that’s not true. Volume doesn’t = spike in injury

@FunBaseballFact In his time, he absolutely killed the dodgers. First with Philadelphia, then with Florida, then with the Dodgers

Today in 1982: Jim Eisenreich, a rookie outfielder for the Twins hitting .309, left the game at Fenway in the middle of an inning.
He suffered from twitching and it became uncontrollable when Boston fans continuously taunted him.
When the team returned to Minnesota, Jim checked into a hospital for treatment. Doctors diagnosed him with Tourette's Syndrome.
He tried several comebacks the next few years, but could never control his symptoms. He retired from baseball in 1984.
Over the next two years, doctors found a way to treat his Tourette’s, and Jim returned to baseball in 1987 with Kansas City. He was named the MVP of the 1989 Royals, a team that featured Bo Jackson and George Brett.
After his comeback, he went on to play 12 more years in the big leagues, and batted over .300 in 5 of those seasons.
He now has a foundation that helps children with Tourette’s Syndrome.

@4WhomJBellTolls He’s going to the Dolphins. He also had one of the highest drop rates of any drafted receiver. I’ll pass on both of those guys tbh

@GanjaTchalla @sdbolts99 It’ll only be temporary if the iol sucks again though
English
@sdbolts99 Welp he aint wrong. It did shut a good majority up. If only it could've shut everyone up.

@RotoGut @sgmbraves2 It seems like you’re casually dismissing the curse I cast on him

The Austin Riley decline needs to be studied man dude is only 29 years old supposed to be in his prime but this is his current savant page
