Dom does good work, so I'd check it out. Don't know about his co-host though.

A thread to share a personal project: Along with @dead_baseball, we are starting a deep dive podcast series on the history of baseball labor: Service Time Podcast. Baseball's relationship with labor and management feels contentious, but it's really repeating its past.

@MatthewMKE98 I said sometime last year if he ever got his BB/9 under 4, he'd be a perennial all-star and Cy Young candidate. If he ever got it under 3 (which I didn't think he'd ever do), he'd be prime Randy Johnson. He's currently at 2.53 BB/9 on the season.

We’ve moved on from Jacob DeGrom comps We are in Randy Johnson comparisons now I said what I said

Pitch Profiler@pitchprofiler

Last year, the doubters questioned if Jacob Misiorowski could even be a a viable MLB starter. Fittingly, on Memorial Day, we take a moment of silence for all his doubters. This man is a Cy Young favorite.

I'm cool with an adult bringing a glove to a game... you do you... but if you do, you can't have a walk-off home run bounce off your glove.

@C2Cbsbl @AaronMcCan92094 @fuzzyfromyt Misiorowski's FIP went lower than Sanchez after today. Dropped it to 1.89.

@AaronMcCan92094 @fuzzyfromyt Sanchez has a lower FIP and ERA in more innings

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball·3h

What's kinda crazy is Christopher Sanchez might still be winning the NL pitcher of the month. 0 ER with 32 IP. Really depends on how much stock you put in ERA versus Ks.

JJ Cooper@jjcoop36

Jacob Misirowski's May is one of the best months of pitching any of us will ever see. 29.1 IP so far, 9 H, 0 R, 6 BB, 47 Ks.

Assuming he's done for the day, update on Misiorowski's chase for the Brewers strikeout record. Currently has 9.09 K/Start after 11 starts. K/Start he'd need for the record... 28 Starts: 9.43 29 Starts: 9.10 30 Starts: 8.80 31 Starts: 8.52 32 Starts: 8.25

@4onfloorGT @GunloverClub1 This is like arguing in a real firefight you'll have an enemy shooting at you so they should have other people shooting live rounds at these guys to prepare for the reality of needing to use cover.

English

4onfloor@4onfloorGT·23h

@GunloverClub1 Lotsa tactical experts here. I wouldn't do this, however, you could make a case for this drill. It is conceivable that a 2-man team may have to cross in FRONT of a partner in a firefight and if you have only ever used a safe firing line w/ RSO watching, you might be ineffective.

I'm doubting my original thought that it's predatory. Tatis was the #30 ranked international prospect and hadn't played a minor league game yet. Looking at #30 ranked international prospects from the 2010s, no others made the majors. It would've been a good deal for the other 9.

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball

Predatory, but Duggs is right, not a loan. There's no default if Tatis never makes a dime in MLB and pays $0. It's closer to buying dividend stock from a company. At the time he was a low-level prospect, never played in the minors, and was a throw-in in a salary dump trade.

@UnrealizedPains @CoachDuggs Your only responses are "you're wrong" "you're a baffoon" "you don't understand" and "re-read that" without any explanation of how this resembles a loan. I think we're done here.

Byron@UnrealizedPains·1d

@dead_baseball @CoachDuggs Reread that

English

Coach Duggs@CoachDuggs·1d

It wasn’t a loan. Stop calling it a loan. Tatis Jr. was paid $2 Million.

Darren Rovell@darrenrovell

Tatis Jr. took a $2M loan that came in exchange for 10% of his lifetime MLB earnings. So far, he will have paid out $35 million.

@dead_baseball @CoachDuggs That’s not what the judge said!

English

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball·1d

@UnrealizedPains @CoachDuggs BTW, the judge said it was not a loan in their ruling... "BLA's payment is not a loan and Player is not responsible for paying any amounts to BLA unless he is called up to a major league."

@dead_baseball @CoachDuggs You’re a buffoon

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball·1d

@UnrealizedPains @CoachDuggs Venture debt and convertible notes have an interest rates and maturity dates.

English

Byron@UnrealizedPains·1d

It’s more like venture debt or a convertible note. But importantly, the $2MM payment gets treated as a loan and not income. Also: “Tatis Jr. and his attorney said while dismissing the petition, the judge confirmed that the contract advance should be considered a loan, which opens the door for future legal challenges.”

English

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball·1d

@UnrealizedPains @AZyy3z @CoachDuggs A convertible note has an interest rate and a maturity date. This doesn't.

English

Byron@UnrealizedPains·1d

@AZyy3z @CoachDuggs You fucking retard. It’s structured as a loan. Think of it like a convertible note.

Baseball's Not Dead@dead_baseball·1d

@UnrealizedPains @CoachDuggs This is not a loan. There is no principle, there is no interest rate, there is nor amortization schedule. It's like a venture capital investment. If you have any argument other than "nuh uh," I'm all ears.

Byron@UnrealizedPains·1d
