@GettheSave9th Respect Megill!

New Closer Ranks!!! It's the unofficial half way point. What do you all think of the ranks below? We have had some surprises but the top three were pretty much expected. Lab Ranks (#)🧪 Tier 1 - The Studs (7/14) 1. Mason Miller (#1) 2. Jhoan Duran (#2) 3. Cade Smith (#5) Same old same old here with two of these guys picking up three saves this week. Tier 2 - Top of The Line (7/14) 4. Bryan Baker (#7) 5. Josh Hader (#3) 6. Raisel Iglesias (#12) 7. Aroldis Chapman (#13) 8. Louis Varland (#4) 9. Jacob Latz (#6) 10. David Bednar (#10) 11. Andrés Muñoz (#9) I moved Baker up. He has been growing in the role and looks like a monster in the 9th. Hader is Hader and Iglesias is starting a new save streak. Tier 3 The Mids (7/14) 12. Trevor Megill (#8) 13. Riley O'Brien (#16) 14. Paul Sewald (#15) 15. Pete Fairbanks (#18) The top of the mids is pretty much the same but the lower half has been dropped down to sick pups. Really outside of Fairbanks all three of these guys could be up a tier. Tier 4 The Single Sick Pups (7/14) 16. Emilio Pagán (#22) 17. Devin Williams (#14) 18. Alex Lange (#25) 19. Kenley Jansen (#20) 20. Tanner Scott (#11) 21. Kirby Yates (#27) 22. Yoendrys Gomez (#24) 23. Jacob Webb (#23) 24. Tyler Wells (#26) 25. Jordan Romano (#65) This is just a brutal group here. Pagán and Williams are bad but look at the rest of the group. Scott is down since he is getting replaced. I listed Gomez, Webb, Wells, and Romano here in stead of in two man groups or committees since I think they see 80% of the chances. What percent they convert is a much different story. Tier 5 Two Man Sick Pup Groups (7/14) 26. Grant Taylor (#17) 26a. Sean Newcomb (#44) 27. Gregory Soto (#21) 27a. Mason Montgomery (#54) This group is down since I went with a lot of guys as sick pups. Taylor is right there as the closer and the PIT job is up in the air but I think Soto has the upper hand. Tier 6 The Swamp (7/14) 28. Erik Miller (#97) 28a. Keaton Winn (N/A) 28b. Caleb Kilian (#19) 29. Clayton Beeter (#29) 29a. PJ Poulin (#73) 29b. Justin Lawrence (#117) 30. Elvis Alvarado (#33) 30a. Hogan Harris (#31) 30b. Mason Barnett (#45) Total chaos with these three. I think Kilian is out for the Giants so the other two are up next. The Nats get the 29 ranking since they can win and the A's are 30th since they cant.

@Andrew_FBB It’s so funny to think about how many of these names will be irrelevant in just four years and we have no idea who

The future at shortstop in baseball is in such good hands: Bobby Witt Jr. Konnor Griffin Elly De La Cruz Jesus Made CJ Abrams Gunnar Henderson Leo De Vries Eli Willits Colt Emerson Franklin Arias Josuar Gonzalez So much upside at the SS position at once🔥

@GettheSave9th Surprised to see Varland not in the top tier. Hader seems likely to make his way up even more. Scott that low because of Diaz looming? He’s been better than 12-16

New Closer Ranks!!! Tier 1 - The Studs (6/23) 1. Mason Miller 2. Cade Smith 3. Jhoan Duran Same group. Still the best. Tier 2 - Top of The Line (6/23) 4. Raisel Iglesias 5. Louis Varland 6. Bryan Baker 7. Josh Hader 8. Aroldis Chapman 9. Paul Sewald 10. David Bednar 11. Jacob Latz Varland and Hader on the move up. Chapman is falling due to lack of usage and one bad outing. Latz joins the party as he has been great. Tier 3 The Mids (6/23) 12. Andrés Muñoz 13. Riley O'Brien 14. Pete Fairbanks 15. Devin Williams 16. Gregory Soto 17. Tanner Scott Muñoz had a good week but I want to see another. This group shrunk a little. Palencia to the IL, Latz up a tier, and Helsley down until he proves he is healthy or still a good pitcher. Tier 4 The Single Sick Pups (6/23) 18. Trevor Megill 19. Alex Lange 20. Kenley Jansen 21. Ryan Helsley 22. Caleb Kilian 23. Tony Santillan Megill heads the pack and his stuff should have him moving up. Lange has been good. The rest are very questionable and this should be Santillans last with the job. Tier 5 Two Man Sick Pup Groups (6/23) 24. Elvis Alvarado 24a. Hogan Harris 25. Yoendrys Gomez 25a. Anthony Banda 26. Jacob Webb 26a. Caleb Thielbar 27. Jaden Hill 27a. Antonio Senzatela I like the 1st guys listed in the top two and hate the teams of the bottom two. Should be interesting to see how the Cubs play out. Avoid COL. Tier 6 The Swamp (6/23) 28. Clayton Beeter 28a. Gus Varland 28b. Richard Lovelady 29. Bryan Hudson 29a. Grant Taylor 29b. Seranthony Domínguez 30. Sam Bachman 30a. Ryan Zeferjahn 30b. Kirby Yates Minor movement here. I think Beeter is close to winning it or at least cutting one of the other two out. No idea with the White Sox. Last nights beating is too fresh. LAA is LAA. I think Yates is out but do they? I'm torn between the other two. I like Bachman. Like, Follow, Comment! What do you guys think? What did I get right and What did I get wrong? Checkout the site and subscribe.

@DWTheOriginal @JonPgh Did you see him last year?

@JonPgh Hancock isn't a "play up out of the pen" type and no one is touching Luis Castillo's contract

OR just get Hancock in the bullpen, trade Castillo, and promote Kade Anderson

@_MikeVA Might be a while still

That's it for me folks! ADD KADE ANDERSON! DO IT NOW! Hit me up with questions! Have a great Tuesday! Want to support me and my work? Help me get to 10K followers! Please RT the first tweet in this thread! Thank you! (.... A LOT of exclamation points here!... one more!)

@pitchprofiler Against the Dodgers? ;)

Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets the ball tonight against the Dodgers. Yama continues to miss bats and limit damage with one of baseball’s nastiest splitters, carrying a 120 proStuff+ pitch with a 40.2% whiff rate. Through 50 innings, he owns a 24.6% K rate and 1.00 WHIP.

@FAmmiranteTFJ Most recent report (today) was that he’ll pitch this series and feels “great”

Dodgers leading 4-0 in the Top 8th. Tanner Scott warming in the bullpen. No Edwin Diaz.

@PitcherListPLV Smh Bryan Reynolds

Bubba Chandler (PIT) allowed three earned runs over 4.1 innings with four walks and four strikeouts

@PaulMarcoe Better than the Google Cloud one on repeat the first few games……

Okay. I like the Mariner’s commercials as much as the next guy. I don’t however like them for the 200th time on the MLB app watching a game.

@EricCrossMLB @ballparkfantas1 Probably won’t start against LHP though….

Dominic Canzone deserves your attention... 2025 269 PA, .300/.358/.481, 11 HR 14.4% BRL, 92.3 mph AVG EV, 49.7% HH, 82.7% Z-Con Yesterday: 2/4, 2 HR #TridentsUp

@jwhittenbergK5 It’s awful. At least show what pitch was thrown

How do we feel about no more on-screen strike zone during coverage?
